Look at me, Delilah

Look at me, Delilah
Complicated



Even at home, Kyomi was still crying even though she was not hysterical like that. Remnants of the grief of losing Nayaka still wrestle as if there are no tears that the child shed.


"Already, Honey. Don't cry anymore. Let's go get papa, yeah," Reyhan said.


The tears melt, and Kyomi hugs Reyhan. "Papa brought people," he said.


"Yes, what's his name? Grandpa forgot." Reyhan asked the boy to joke.


"Kyomi."


"Yes, Kyomi. Grandpa is old. Remove the tears first. Look, there's Kiano's sister, Ayyena and Anthea. Kyomi's met them before, right?"


Kyomi just nodded, and hugged her uncle again. Anna came to the little girl.


"Kyomi darling. You remember Grandma, right?" said Anna.


Ayyena and Anthea looked at each other. Because according to the rules should be, Kyomi called his father and mother as aunt and uncle or om.


"I think Papa and Mama deserve to be called grandparents. You know that Delilah used to call them aunts and oms when they were out of the house" Anthea said.


"Yes, what does the calling mean. What is clear is that we know the true origin of our family" Ayyena said.


Kyomi is taken over by Anna and brought into the room. The boy needed to sleep so as not to think too much about Nayaka, while Delilah sat still without being able to say anything.


"Tomorrow Brother will call a lawyer" Reyhan said.


"Sister must set him free" said Delilah.


"You clean yourself up and rest first. Your appearance is very messed up."


"I can't, Brother. Nayaka was taken into the cell. What if he gets beaten up?"


"It's all because of you" interrupted Kiano. "You're making everyone's relationship go awry. You know this behavior of yours can put our family to shame."


"I just want to cancel the wedding."


"You better not cancel the wedding. If you want our family's reputation not ruined, then just marry Juno."


"I don't want to hurt Nayaka anymore."


"Delilah should never have married Juno" Reyhan said.


"But, Papa. If he gets married, then his business will run out. I will persuade Juno to drop her charges against Nayaka" Kiano said.


"You want Delilah to suffer life with Juno? He betrayed the man. You think Juno would take that for granted? Juno is the type of man who hates betrayal. Delilah will be even more tormented if she is with him" Reyhan said.


"I'll report Juno as well. He also beat up Nayaka" Delilah said.


"It's up to you" said Kiano because he would also be involved in the matter.


Reyhan moved from his seat, he walked towards the room that Anna had entered with Kyomi. Ayyena and Anthea returned to their room. Both of them did not want to ask about what happened.


"You satisfied?" ask Kiano.


"I'm your aunt!"


"What aunt? It's just a family tree. I hope you get a fair reply."


"You don't know what's going on right now. Where do you want to put my face? My friends must be making fun of me" Kiano said.


"You don't be friends with them anymore" Delilah said.


"Juno's my best friend. If you love that Nayaka, why do you accept him? You even accepted the proposal."


"I really liked Juno back then. Apparently Nayaka is the person I love the most. You don't know what I'm feeling, Kiano. I don't want to be with Nayaka because her status isn't on par with ours. I don't want people to assume that Nayaka is with me because of the treasure."


"That's just your mind. What cares about people. You are arrogant, so that's why you abandoned your son" said Kiano, then left.


Delilah exhaled a long breath, she leaned against the body of the sofa with mixed feelings. He can't stay at home, he has to be at the police station to see Nayaka.


As Delilah grabbed the car keys, Anna rebuked him. "Tomorrow, my dear."


"I'm worried" Delilah replied.


"Relax, Nayaka will be fine. Trust your brother. Rest first. Clean yourself. Tomorrow, you can meet him."


What Anna says is true because no matter how angry Reyhan is, he will not make his sister suffer. Surely Reyhan has made plans for this matter to be resolved.


"I'm going back to my room" Delilah said.


Anna re-entered the room, smiling at Reyhan who was laying down beside the slumbering Kyomi.


"He's your nephew" said Anna.


"I'm better suited to be called Grandpa" Reyhan said.


"I am too." Anna got on the bed. "She's pretty, right?"


"What was Delilah thinking at that time? He left his own son. She even gave birth without being accompanied by us. I shouldn't have let him go" Reyhan said.


"He was so young when she was pregnant, Rey. He must be freaking out too. But I salute Nayaka. She managed to raise her daughter."


"Did he do this on purpose?" ask Reyhan.


"You mean Delilah?"


Reyhan. "The Nayaka. I don't know him very well. But you can see when Bastian gets angry when Delilah spends money on that guy. I shouldn't have allowed Delilah to come to England."


"Already, Rey. Regardless of what her intentions are, Nayaka has raised her own child. He's responsible for his baby."


"It seems Kyomi hates Delilah. She doesn't want to be with her mother."


"I don't know what's going on. Obviously Kyomi has to be with us. He deserves what his grandparents left behind" Anna said.


"I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow. I hope everything will be okay. I'm ready to accept the humiliation of the Juno family."


Who does and who is responsible. Here the family will bear all. Hoping for Juno's family to accept the cancellation of the marriage and for the beating, Reyhan has asked the best lawyer to take care of it.


While inside the iron bars, Nayaka curled up in the cold. He can't sleep because he thinks about Kyomi. What if he was here forever? Kyomi will have a father in prison, and maybe that child will hate him later.
