Let Me Hate

Episode 56's

By late afternoon they had just returned home. When entering Asta's house he realized something he had forgotten since Kevin's arrival yesterday afternoon .

" Oh yes Mas, I forgot to ask you, where did you get this car from ?,"

..

"Oh, I asked to find a car rental that I can use while here. And yesterday from the airport I was ushered in by their driver. You're so thorough, aren't you?" said Kevin, making Asta smile.

They have finished bathing and Asta invites Kevin to Mr. Rt's house to report about the new guests who came and stayed.

" Today when Mr. Utomo asked me I was just answering to work in Jakarta, I was worried that the information I gave was different, it turns out you didn't tell me much about me ," kevin said when they returned from Rt's house.

" I'm just passing on important information. Why say something that is not important" replied Asta.

When they reached the front of the house, Asta saw his neighbor Arum on the terrace.

" We stopped by Arum's place?, said Asta approved by Kevin.

" Openetrish..."

" Greetings waalaikum, hey where are you?" asked Arum.

" From Mr. Rt's house, all I want to say goodbye because tomorrow afternoon I will return to Jakarta."

" Are you?, then this house ?."

" I leave it to you. It's up to you to contract or have your brother stay here, whatever. Oh yes, I forgot Kevin yesterday brought a little souvenir, I take it first yes" said Asta and he just started to step when Kevin prevented it.

" You're here, let me bring him here" said Kevin quickly.

" All right." replied Asta while sitting back down.

"He em... like someone is being pampered?," Arum's tease makes Asta smile shyly.

" What the hell," Asta replied making Arum laugh.

Then Kevin came with a paper bag containing souvenirs that he brought from America.

"I'm sorry I didn't bring any special gifts for the kids, frankly I didn't know you had two kids."

" That's how it is" Kevin replied .

" Alright Arum, I'll go back, yeah, get some rest."

"Okey, what time are you back in Jakarta?,"

" About four o'clock, what's up?" asked Asta.

" In that case, I say goodbye first huh," said Arum making Asta look at him in wonder.

" Yes, tomorrow at ten I'm going straight from the office to Russia to research the Zika virus ,"

" Oh like that. Well we say yes, be careful to be safe until the destination." said Asta and so also with Arum who prayed that they arrived to the destination safely.

Arum laid his body on the bed making Kevin stare at her worriedly.

" What's the matter?, do you feel something bothering you?," asked Kevin while sitting next to Asta.

" Just feel accomplished. Would you mind not massaging my legs again?, just like you did yesterday?" said spoiled Asta.

" He uh."

Kevin immediately moved to sit at the end of the bed and raised Asta's leg and placed it on his lap.

Gently Kevin massaged Asta's soles and calves.

" Mommy, can I ask you something no ?,"

"Ask it."

"But promise don't get angry and you have to answer honestly !."

" All right, I promise."

"Why are you so angry and unaccepting when there is a picture of me with Keanu?, why do all your friends know who Keanu is and it seems to be a very forbidden thing, but how could Amanda not know her ?."

" Of course Amanda doesn't know who Keanu is. Apart from being a child, he was also far away from us . Keanu and I are sisters from different mothers. I don't know how my father had a child with another woman that I knew at the time I brought home a seven-year-old. Our house, which was at first peaceful, was suddenly always chaotic and messy because of Keanu's actions. My mother has always been patient even though Keanu has always been impolite, when I remember Keanu, so I was the one who got a reprimand from Dad until one day Keanu had an accident and was saved by my mother which resulted in my mother dying on the spot. At first I considered it an accident but a month later I found out that the accident was intentional. Keanu talks to his mother that he did it on purpose because Dad left his mother. I recorded their conversation and reported to the police. I was so angry with Keanu as well. To me Keanu's name is a big mistake when someone mentions and meets him. After the incident no one can say Keanu's name" Kevin explained.
