Cassandra Loving

A Promise

The two eyes that were now glazed looked red. Mayasa was silent but his eyes seemed to be talking.

"Cassandra and Pras' wedding will take place in two days? Seriously? That fast? Though the mood is still grieving like this..."

Mayasa desperately wanted to express her heart but the sinister gaze of Arik Gudono made her shut up.

So when Mayasa was given a chance to talk before the casket was closed, he revealed just that.

"Sir, thank you for everything. All this time sorry has been a lot of trouble. Without Father I would not have been able to stand on my own feet this strong after Mas Rendi left.

I will keep my promise to do the same for Cassandra. I know how fragile it is to lose someone I really love. Although Pras already exists, but Cassandra may need me. As a woman, I understand better.

For the last one, sorry my hand was not that strong yesterday to keep your hand so that we both survived. Sorry..."

Mayasa said solemnly and then wiped the tears with the tip of his black scarf wrapped around the neck. He just ignored Arik Gudono's sharp gaze glanced at him.

Arik Gudono was certainly surprised because of Mayasa's words. Strengthen Cassandra? Does that girl need herself as a female? Mayasa could have said that quietly after a few minutes ago Arik had just warned him not to get close, let alone dare to disturb Cassandra.

Arik wanted to get angry but he held back his frustration. His hand moved giving the code to close the crate. He retreated, followed by Mayasa.

All quiet. No one spoke, except for a loud cry heard from the families of the other victims.

Arik Gudono put on a stiff face. Not that he was not sad, but the setting of his face was already so. If people do not know, would have thought that Arik is a creepy and evil figure.

Mayasa looked down solemnly as well but from the tail of his eyes he could see Arik Gudono glancing sharply at him and his guts like he still wanted to invite him to talk.

"Sir, without prejudice to respect, I did not hear the threats of the Father. I have no intention at all to harass or disturb Cassandra regarding her relationship with Pras. It's over and you know I really left Pras. I kept my promise.

But I have the same promise as Mr. Prambodo. He knows nothing about my past relationship with Pras. So this is purely because he believes in me. He asked me to promise and I agreed. It happened before he fell and died before my own eyes." Mayasa opened this conversation domineeringly.

Arik Gudono just shut up and sat there listening. His face did not seem relaxed at all. He looks more upset.

"Pak Pram knows Cassandra's been keeping her distance and closed shut since her mother died. He doesn't even have any close friends. Now there may be a Pras. But he's still a man.

Mr. Prambodo realized Cassandra needed a female figure. He wanted me to see him as his sister. He wanted me to take care of him and help him when I was in trouble. He wants us to be close.

And I'm a woman who keeps her word, sir. I'll keep trying to get close to Cassandra. I don't care if you get in my way or tell me I'm going to fire me. My promise to Mr. Prambodo is worth more than that."

The deg!

Arik Gudono was getting annoyed. He knew that Prambodo was so close to Mayasa, but he did not expect that Pram would say so to Mayasa.

"I can't believe Prambodo said that. It's hard to trust people. Your words also have no proof. It could be all your bullshit." Arik.

Mayasa's mouth was already open about to refute but as soon as his eyes saw Pras figure walking closer towards them, his mouth immediately clenched again.
