Between Revenge and Love

Difficult Request

"Dinda. Maybe this is not the right time. But Om and Aunt couldn't wait any longer. It's about Fariz." Om Rahman said carefully, he did not want to surprise or hurt Dinda.

Dinda was surprised. Instantly his heart sighed. The wounds in his heart were bleeding again leaving a deep heartache. He wanted to shout in front of Om Rahman and Aunt Sita so that they would not mention the name of the evil man. But Dinda was too disinclined by them. Make Dinda suppress all her feelings, and hide her tight.

Bu Inayah was very surprised when Fariz's name was mentioned by an unknown guest. He was very careful to make sure that Dinda was okay. While serving drinks and snacks, Inayah decided to sit next to Dinda. He didn't want anything bad to happen to Dinda. It made him not hesitate to take a seat between them.

Instantly the views of om Rahman and aunt Sita felt full of accusations on Inayah ma'am. Because they met several times, they knew that Inayah was Dinda's maid. How could he dare to interfere with his employer's problems?

Dinda could apparently understand the meaning of Fariz's parents' gaze. He also understood the purpose of Inayah sitting with them solely to protect him.

"Bu Inayah is like a surrogate mother to me. So whatever it is about me, Ms. Inayah I will definitely be involved." Dinda said clearly.

Om Rahman nodded. As if he could make sure he understood it. Om Rahman took a coffee and sipped it a little before continuing his words.

"Dinda, Om understands that you are still grieving. But Om also asks for your understanding." For a moment Rahman was silent. He took a deep breath as if what was to be said next was a very difficult thing.

"You still remind me, what was your father's will before he died?" Ask Rahman suddenly.

Dinda nodded, how could he forget his father's message before he died? Her father asked her to marry Fariz.

"Deg" Dinda's heart was beating hard. Some time ago, Dinda would have happily married Fariz. But now he knew all the evils and evils of Fariz. How Fariz sold it and he had other women. After knowing all his crimes, does Dinda still have to keep his father's will?

"Of... Dinda could not marry Fariz. Fariz. We won't be happy." Suddenly the words slid from his lips. Far from his heart. Actually he wants to expose all Fariz's crimes. But again, he was helpless. He didn't have the heart to embarrass Om Rahman's family. Makes Dinda have to suppress her feelings strongly.

Bu Inayah who was sitting next to him squeezed his hand. Trying to give Dinda the courage to tell the truth. But Dinda remained terrified. He did not want to hurt the two men by opening the rottenness of his son. Make Inayah's mother dare to save Dinda.

"Sorry Mr and Mrs, maybe Dinda is not ready to talk about this matchmaking. However, not even forty days died his mother mbak Dinda. If possible, wait a year before the mourning period. We can discuss that." Said Inayah politely.

"Fariz doesn't have that long!" Strangled aunt Sita suddenly. It surprised Dinda.

"I mean Auntie ?"

Aunt Sita's cry finally broke. He cannot endure the heartache of a mother. His only child was paralyzed and committed suicide several times. He was not willing to lose his only child. Dinda is the only hope she can rely on to be able to return to give life spirit.

Dinda was provoked into crying, which she cried is why the test she faced seemed endless? Can he live if he marries the man who ruined his life ?Dinda shook her head strongly. He does not want to be caught up in Fariz's crimes anymore. He used to love her but now all that was left in his heart was hatred and revenge.

"No. I don't want to marry him!" Dinda's sigh was as soft as the sound of a whisper.

"Plakkkkk" Aunt Sita's palms landed on her cheeks. Leaving bruises and stinging pain.

Dinda's tears spilled instantly. What was his mistake to have to accept a slap from a woman he greatly admired. Ms. Inayah immediately embraced him trying to protect him from getting hit again.

Aunt Sita held back the overflowing anger. Her husband held her hand so as not to hit her back.

"Is this your reply to our family? Once you know my son is disabled and needs you badly. You easily throw it away? Auntie didn't think you were so evil Dinda?!!" Bu Sita sobbed, the middle-aged woman let out her disappointment.

"It's not that Auntie's reason Dinda didn't want to marry Fariz. Dinda... Sinda..."

Dinda's defense was in vain. The reason that Dinda will give instead provokes Om Rahman's emotions. The man who was usually calm and patient, currently looked extremely angry. Makes Dinda crinkle in fear.

"Dinda.. remember yes, the one who asked for engagement was your late father not us. You know why? to repay our kindness to your family. If you deny it, I will not blame Hasan or Rahma. I know young people now never want to learn to return the favor. Right now I'm just the father of a desperate child. Because of his disability, he did not want to live anymore. Will you punish him by allowing him to commit suicide? You are the only Dinda she expected. I'll kneel, for Fariz's sake."

Om Rahman bends his knees in front of his chair. He slumped until his knees hit the floor. "Help Fariz, help him get excited again!" Om Rahman asked very strongly. He fell to his knees in front of Dinda. Ignoring self-esteem, as long as the child can get a little happiness.

"Om. don't do this. Don't kneel in front of me. I don't want to be a bad boy." Dinda directly guided Om Rahman back to sit in his chair. There was a feeling of sadness instantly ensnaring his heart.

He still loved Fariz's parents. That respect still sticks with them. Dinda still remembered their attention to him all along. They might not know about Fariz's crimes, how could he blame them or even make the two old men sad?

Dinda also knows, the affection of Om Rahman and Aunt Sita is very big on him. Even their concern for him was greater than for his own son. But on the other hand, there was a gaping heart wound because of Fariz's actions. Can he easily forgive her?
