FROM THE HEART

Episode 19's

I miss my best friend Nanda so much, I know Rendi must have kept her promise to bring Nanda to our house.

"Do we have to be honest with mom and everybody, Ren?" My toot.

"No! It all takes time, if we're honest now then they'll be disappointed."

"Rendi, I'm not comfortable in this position right now, I can't keep lying to our family, just like when we lied to Ren, it's gonna hurt more if they find out about it than other people."

"If we have to wait for the right time it will make us continue to lie and be more afraid to be honest, in the problems we face to be honest there is no need to wait for the right time Ren, who is, if we keep waiting, it'll be even scarier to live in a lie."

I really felt uncomfortable continuing to lie, even though Rendi kept challenging me to be honest but I kept trying to convince her.

"You love me so much, don't you?"

"Rendi, if we love each other then we have to be honest with them, I'm sure they'll understand what happened that made me lose our baby. I just need you by my side so I can be confident to tell you the truth, you want to help me?"

Finally after my painstaking efforts persuaded him, Rendi supported me. We'll see our family soon. Although to be honest it feels heavy but this is the reality we have to face as long as we can always be together.

"Ma, pa, there are all serious issues that Clara and Rendi want to address."

The atmosphere stiffened all staring at us curiously.

"We don't mean to disappoint you, but this fact must be up to us." My speech.

"Say, what do you want to say?" Ask mama.

"Before we apologized ma, pa, we didn't mean to lie to you." Say it again.

"What do you mean baby, let's say don't convolve." Mama said.

"Huuuhhh. 2 weeks ago we didn't go on vacation, ma..."

"Listen first ma, we're not on vacation but Rendi and Clara are in the hospital ma." Obviously I surprised everyone.

"What.." mama was very surprised to hear it. I approached my mother and held her shoulders.

"Ma, Clara's sorry, Clara can't keep up, Clara has lost baby Clara 2 weeks ago."

Mama started to get disappointed in me so she pushed me to let go of my hug.

"You guys, you've cheated my mom, you've disappointed us."

"Ma, all because Rendi is not one of Clara, Rendi who causes Clara to lose her baby until her uterus is removed, all one of Rendi ma, Rendi can not take care of Rendi's wife and children." Rendi also began to open her voice while trying to help mama stand but mama instead brushed off Rendi's hand which made me and Rendi more afraid and resigned if they want to hate us. Once we were honest everything could only be silent, the atmosphere became silent no one was as wordy as it went from their mouths while looking at us with a gaze as if full of hatred.

"I'm sorry, ma. We had lied to you but believe me we did not mean to cheat, we just did not want to make you disappointed because on the day of our arrival you were so enthusiastic about welcoming us that we had to make a show, we knew what we were doing was wrong, but we had to." Obviously I'm at length. I was so scared, I could only hide in my husband's arms.

"Rendi, are they all mad at us?"

"Look, baby, we're waiting for an answer from them." Rendi continued to hug me as if she was protecting me. My mom got up and walked closer to us.

"Mama's very disappointed in you guys." My mom finally started talking to us.

"But you can't lie mama loves you so much, she forgives you because you've tried to be honest. I was so happy to hear an explanation from my mother-in-law, I immediately hugged it turns out she was not angry.

"You have to promise that no matter what happens you should always be together never leave each other." Mama hugged me and Rendi. There are no secrets between us anymore. Honestly it does feel difficult and will make other people and ourselves hurt but believe me if you try to be honest in the end will bear sweet fruit.
