Just An Illusion

The wrong decision?

After taking Inara to the bathroom and closing the door from the outside. When Alvaro had just come out, Alvaro accidentally saw the Lastri bi who had just walked into the room and saw something shocking on the bed sheet. As a person who is aged Lastri certainly knows what the meaning of blood stains in bed linen, let alone this happened in Inara's room made Lastri speechless in his place instantly.

Alvaro, who saw Lastri, was silent while looking at the bloodstains, then began to take his foot steps closer to where Lastri was and patted the middle-aged woman on the shoulder.

"Is there something Bi?" alvaro asked with a curious look of his face to make the daydream of Lastri instantly froze for a moment.

"Sorry sir, I don't know if you're here" said Lastri, who was saddened to find Alvaro behind him.

Seeing the surprised face of Lastri then made Alvaro sigh long.

"What's wrong with Bi anyway what's on Aunt's mind is all right, Inara is my second wife" Alvaro said in the end.

Since Inara's arrival all the atmosphere in the house does look different, but Lastri does not know if Inara is Alvaro's second wife.

"I'm sorry if I sassy sir, is this with Mom's consent? I'm just afraid that all this will be the beginning of a rift" said Lastri in a hesitant tone.

For him Alvaro and Kikan already he considered as his own son, is it not the duty of a mother to remind his daughter's son?

Alvaro who got the question from Lastri, then smiled while nodding slowly as if to make the heart of Lastri a little relieved when he saw the answer from Alvaro.

"This is Kikan Bi's wish, I just do everything as he wishes. I was also helpless but Kikan's desire to have a baby forced me to do it." said Alvaro with a sad face.

Seeing the look of Alvaro's sad face, made Lastri immediately rubbed Alvaro's back slowly.

"Miss Inara is a good woman as well as Miss Kikan, Bibi believes that the decision of Miss Kikan must have been carefully thought out, you do not need to be too sad as it will make Bu Kikan sad." lastri again.

"You're right Bi, thank you so much for advising me" Alvaro said with a smile.

"No need to hesitate, Aunt clean this first and replace it with a new one" said Lastri later while starting to fold the dirty bed sheet and replace it with a new one.

Seeing the figure of Lastri made Alvaro become reminded of his mother, Alvaro smiled when he saw the figure of Lastri who could be a household assistant as well as a mother for him. Until then when Alvaro remembered something missing, then made the smile on his face fade away instantly.

"Oh yeah, did Auntie see Kikan coming home?" asked Alvaro then who then made Lastri stop the movement of his hand.

"I don't know sir, it seems like it hasn't" said Lastri, remembering.

Hearing the words of Lastri certainly made Alvaro become worried about the existence of Kikan. Since last night Kikan did not go home and this morning he had not seen Kikan anywhere, making Alvaro then immediately stepped out of Inara's room at that time. I don't know where Kikan went until this morning has not been seen, making Alvaro start to feel worried because Kikan did not come home too.

"Where are you Ki?" alvaro said as he stepped into the main room to see if Kikan had gone home.

***

Kikan lowered his head on the steering wheel of his car and continued to sigh longly. Until then the ringing of his cellphone then immediately disperse all thoughts Kikan at that time.

Kikan raised his head slowly then rubbed the tears dripping in both corners of his eyes when he saw Alvaro's name written clearly on the screen of his cellphone.

"Hello.." said Kikan right after sliding the green icon on his phone screen.

"Where are you Ki? It's morning, you didn't even come home last night and just told me I was coming home late. Are you all right? Shall I pick you up now?" alvaro said with a tone that sounded so worried, making a drop of tears fall back in the corner of his eyes, but as much as possible Kikan could not hold it sobbing and heard by Alvaro across there.

"Ah I forgot to let you know if my arisan friend's son suddenly had an accident yesterday and her husband was not here, so I accompanied him to take care of some of the needs he needed, he said, maybe it's a little bad I'm going home" Kikan told a lie.

"really? Why didn't you tell me? Tell me where the hospital is I'll leave right now" Alvaro said in a surprised tone.

"No need to come, I just have to wait for my friend's husband to come home soon" Kikan refused.

"But baby." said Alvaro but immediately cut by Kikan at that time.

"Sorry baby, it looks like my friend just called, I close first huh.. Love you." said Kikan then hung up his phone call just like that before waiting for any answer from Alvaro just now.

What really happened when Kikan came home...

Kikan who was excited at that time because he thought that his plan to let Alvaro and Inara together at home was successful, then made Kikan want to ask Inara about everything that happened last night. It was just that when his footsteps were right in the doorway, Kikan saw something that made his heart so hurt when he saw the scene. Where Kikan saw Alvaro carrying the innocent body of Inara who was still wrapped in a blanket as it headed towards the bathroom.

The incident really reminded Kikan how his first night was, making Kikan then immediately stunned to look at the scenery. Kikan seemed surprised by what happened before his eyes, this was all a request from Kikan but when he saw it directly, of course, it still made his heart hurt.

"Al.." call Kikan in a soft tone.

The powerless Kikan held back the feeling in his heart, then turned around and returned his feet away from home to calm his heart.

Kikan rubbed his tears violently then confirmed the position of his messy hair.

"Why does it feel so painful? Have I made the wrong decision?" kikan said by holding back his sobs.
