"Why are you all surprised?" asked Wicaksana while looking at them in surprise.
"No, Kok, Dad." Elak Arya with a forced-looking smile.
"You want to, right, Kania? Oh, aye. Before, I wanted to meet your parents. I want to meet my father."
Kania surprised. I don't know what he should answer.
"Kania no longer has parents, Dad. His father had died a few years ago and his mother had recently died of illness."
"Is that true, Kania?" ask Wicaksana as if not believing.
"Yes, Dad." Kania nodded to make Ryan look at her.
"You seem to be very good at hiding your identity," Ryan looked irritated and immediately got up to his room.
"Ryan, where are you going?"
"I'm sleepy, Dad. I want to go to sleep" Ryan replied as he continued walking towards his room without caring about those staring at his disappearance.
Irritated, Ryan threw his body on the bed. "Why should I be upset by dad's plan? Hah, because of him, I'm going crazy!!" Ryan covered his head with a pillow, but the ringing sound of his phone made him immediately stare at his phone. Instantly, he smiled as he looked at the name plastered on his phone screen.
"Hallo, baby." His words sound so spoiled.
"Ryan, aren't you coming back here?" ask that voice which is none other than Davina.
"Why ask like that? I'll be back, but not yet."
"Ryan, you're not lying, are you?"
"Why should I lie to you? I'll definitely come back to you."
"But why is your house sold? Your father's company has also been sold to the company I work for. All I hear is that your father left his stake in this company and sold all his assets, because your father won't stay here anymore." Ryan was shocked when he heard his girlfriend's words.
"You're not kidding, are you?"
"What am I kidding for? In fact, I'm worried and scared that we won't see each other again." The girl seemed to be crying.
Ryan remained silent. His chest felt tight when he heard his lover's cry. Not to mention the news he just heard that made his curiosity even more.
"Davina, relax. I'm gonna ask my dad. Don't cry anymore, I'll make sure we're okay." Ryan tried to persuade her lover and the girl fell silent.
"I'll call you again. Give me time to hear my father's explanation. Rest."
Ryan ended the call. His heart looks riled up. The young man came out and walked towards the living room, where his father and brother were sitting.
"Dad, can you explain why you sold Dad's house and company in America? Why did you do it without asking us first?"
Arya was shocked as she snorted at her sister's question. While Wicaksana, just speechless to see the attitude of his son who looks angry.
"Calm down, I can explain." Wicaksana looks relaxed even though the gaze of his two children is directed at him.
"Sit down first."
Ryan then sat down next to his brother and they both looked focused and waited for his father's explanation.
"I'm sorry if Dad's decision disappoints you. But that was my decision." Wicaksana fell silent and tried to organize his sad feelings for keeping the secret of his illness alone.
"If you sell all your assets there, but I've kept all of Dad's possessions for you both. All the proceeds of the sale have been distributed on your behalf."
"Dad, is there a problem we don't know about?" arya asked while looking at the old face of her father.
Wicaksana smiled and shook her head. "No problem, son. I just want to stay and spend my old age with you. I am tired of looking for money too. Now, it's time for you to continue your efforts. I want to play and joke with my grandkids."
"What does that mean, I can't go back there?" ryan asked with his face held in anger.
"Who said you can't go there? With the money given by Dad, you can even buy a house there. Whenever you want to go, I'll pay you."
Ryan remained silent. The young man did not expect that the luxury and pleasure he felt in America would no longer be felt. A sports car, a luxury house and of course his lover, he will no longer be able to meet.
Ryan then got up and headed to his room. Before long, he came out with a helmet in his hand.
"Ryan, where are you going?" arya asked as she saw her sister preparing to leave. Ryan said nothing as if he didn't care about his brother's question.
"That's it, just let him. If he's bored, he'll come home." Wicaksana doesn't seem to care. The man then sipped his coffee casually even though at the bottom of his heart, he knew the disappointment his children were feeling.
"Dad, I'll support whatever your decision is. If that's what's best for you, I'll take it." Wicaksana smiled at his son's words.
While Kania, just fell silent without being able to speak. He realized, he had no right to interfere in the affairs of the family. Seeing Ryan's departure, Kania looked so worried. The girl then follows Ryan and tries to stop him.
"Ryan, are you going to leave with that messed up feeling of yours? If you are angry, stay in your room. Don't make your father and brother worry."
"Here you go, don't pretend to care about me. Besides, what do you know about my feelings? Sana, it's better to approach my brother so that you can get half his fortune. Have fun with her while I still give you time, because if I get bored, then you should get ready to leave my brother and this house." Ryan then left Kania who looked at him with a broken feeling.
Kania went back inside the house and sat down next to Arya. Looking at the young man, Kania felt more at ease. His face was so shady and charismatic. His eyes were so soothing. Unlike Ryan's gaze which looked full of anger.
"Dad has decided to hold your wedding reception. You two should be happy and give another grandchild to Dad. It seemed, Tania had also wanted the presence of a sister." Wicaksana looks happy so that Arya does not evade or refute every speech of her father. In fact, she was seen nodding in affirmative signs even though Kania who was sitting next to her only lowered her head in embarrassment in front of them.
"Dad will prepare everything. You two better get some rest because this week, I'm gonna have your wedding reception." The man then went to his room. He seemed busy contacting his friends just to deliver news about his son's marriage.
"Do you want to continue this marriage?" arya asked suddenly to make Kania look at her.
"Whatchu mean? What are you ... "
"I'll pay you if you still want to go further. I'll give you anything to keep you here. I've never seen a father so happy. And I don't want to hurt her because of our marriage ... "
"Don't worry, I'll stay here. Didn't I ask you to let me be here?" Kania smiled as she looked at Arya's face which looked sad at the thought of her father.
"Here you go, you better rest. Go into the room, I'll bring you some warm honey tea." Arya nodded and then went to her room. Shortly after, Kania came and brought her a glass of warm honey tea.
"Rest me, I'll accompany Tania in her room." Kania then went out and went to her daughter's room.
*****
In a city park, Ryan seemed to sit while looking around the park that looks lonely. His mood was so bad that it made his mind go awry. His father's unilateral decision apparently disappointed him.
"Everything's been a mess ever since I met Kania. That girl turned out to make my life always depressed." Ryan clenched both of his hands. His eyes were full of hate. He was shocked to see someone he knew passing in front of him.
Ryan then ran towards his bike and chased after the man who was also passing by his motorcycle. The sound of a horn constantly ringing behind him made the person stop at the side of the road. "What's wrong with her? Why does he keep honking me?"
Ryan who had stopped in front of him then approached him while opening his helmet.
"Ryan?" ask the person who was so surprised.
"How are you, Bastian." Yes, that person was Bastian, his best friend in the past.
"Ba. good." Bastian was so shocked when he saw Ryan standing in front of him.
"Do you not want to hug your friend?" bastian asked with a smile. Despite his doubts, Bastian finally hugged his old friend.
"Well, you've changed a lot. You look more handsome." Praise Ryan as they both sit in a cafe not far from their meeting place.
Bastian smiled even a little forced. "Ah, it's normal. In fact, you look more handsome and dashing. Oh right, haven't you been in America all this time?"
Ryan smiled. "Yes, but after seeing someone, I finally decided to go back."
"Someone?" Ryan nodded. "Yes, someone. Someone who betrayed me." Ryan smiled wryly as he sipped a cold drink in his hand.
"Did you know Kania was married?" ryan asked, which surprised Bastian.
"Of course you know because you're close friends, but do you know who she's married to?"
Bastian. He doesn't know what to answer.
"He's married to my sister." Suddenly, Bastian was surprised to even choke while sipping his cold drink.
"What's? Your brother?"
"Why surprised? Arya Wicaksana and Ryan Wicaksana are sisters?"
Bastian's face suddenly changed. He did not think that Arya was his best friend's sister.
"So, have you met him?"
Ryan nodded as he sipped his drink. "Are you two conspiring to get close to my brother?"
Spontaneous Bastian looked at him. His face held back in anger when he heard Ryan's question. "Do you think Kania is that low? Is it because he hurt you once, and you think he could be that cruel?"
Ryan smiled wryly. "I don't know what it means to marry my sister, but I'll make sure that she won't be able to hurt my sister. It's enough of me that he's hurting and I'll never forgive him if my brother gets hurt. I'll make sure she gets out of my sister's house because whenever I don't want her to be a member of my family."
Ryan then gets up and intends to leave Bastian, but his steps are stopped when Bastian blocks his arm.
"Do you think Kania is after your sister? Before you hurt her, you will first hurt your brother and nephew. Ask your sister the reason she married Kania, after that you will know and realize your mistake." Bastian then left Ryan who was staring in wonder at him. Bastian's remarks apparently made Ryan curious.
"Bastian, wait!!" Ryan goes after him, but Bastian goes on and doesn't care about him.
"Explain to me about what you said. Bastian, do you also want to keep your mouth shut like you used to?"
"Yes, I will keep my mouth shut, because I have no right to explain. Better, undo your intention to hurt Kania. If that happens, I'll finish you myself." Bastian looked at Ryan intently. Just this time, Ryan saw an angry looking Bastian.
Bastian then left. Ryan, who was curious, returned home. The atmosphere of the house looks lonely. "Bi Suri, where's Brother Arya?"
"Sir Arya in her room is resting."
"Then, where's Kania?"
"The lady's in Non Tania's room."
Ryan then went to Tania's room. Without knocking, Ryan then entered and found Kania lying next to Tania.
Seeing Ryan coming towards her made Kania rise up immediately. "Ryan, what are you doing? Quick, get out of this room!!" Kania looks panicked as she grabs the young man's hand and pulls him towards the door.
Ryan let go of his hand and looked at Kania sharply. "Explain to me why you married my sister? What made you accept my brother? Kania, answer my question."
"I won't answer. Get out of the room before anyone sees you here."
"I won't come out until you say it. Do you love my sister?" Ryan's eyes were so sharp.
"Go and don't bother me anymore."
Ryan was angry. The body of Kania in his arms. Their eyes stared at each other. "Do you love her?" ask Ryan again.
"Yes, I love her, love her so much. I ... " Suddenly Ryan grabbed Kania's soft lips and forcefully kissed her. Kania tried to rebel in the young man's arms, but Kania was powerless because Ryan's arms were so tight.
Kania shed tears as Ryan did the shameful thing to her. After being satisfied, Ryan slammed into Kania's body just like that. Kania was seen wiping away her tears and looking at Ryan with a pained look.
"I hate you, I hate you so much. I know I was wrong, but you're too cruel to treat me like this. I'm not the cheap woman you imagined. I still have my shame and conscience." Kania wiped her tears.
"I will be a thorn in the flesh for you. I know, in the corner of your heart, you still love me. That's why you hurt me. Fine, I will accept your treatment, but one thing you should know, I no longer love you because I have loved your sister. Try to make me look bad in front of him, because he knows who I am. He knows my past. He cares more about me and is softer than you." Kania then opened the door. "Come out, I'm sick of you." Kania said that with a broken feeling.
Ryan then left and left Kania who was crying so hard behind the door. All the words were thrown away so as to make Kania feel a deep pain.
"You're so cruel to me. Was I too despicable to make you do that to me?"
