Galen smiled obliquely towards his parents in turn.
"I'm not leaving without Diandra!" galen said with great emphasis.
"Just two years. You also have no children. Just got married, too" said Mama.
"One day I won't, Ma."
"Don't be too stupid for Galen's love. It's also for your future. If Diandra's a good wife, she'll let you go" Papa said in a slightly high voice.
"It's not Diandra who won't allow it but I who won't part from Diandra. He has suffered a lot. Let's see when she first got the abuse, to lose her voice because of trauma. It's all because of me and Adit's brother. Will I leave him after all the suffering?" galen asked with a hoarse voice holding back the cry.
Galen's chest was tight considering everything that had befallen Diandra as well because of her. Adit returns his heartache to Galen's much-loved woman.
"Why you and Adit?" ask mama again.
"Ma, do you still not believe that the one who harassed Diandra was Abang Adit?" Galen asked his mother.
"How can you believe that Diandra has no proof. If one day Diandra gives proof, mama will definitely believe and apologize to Diandra."
"Proof what else, Ma. Can't you see the honesty of Diandra's eyes."
Suddenly papa hits the table hard enough to shock Galen and Mama. They turned towards Papa.
"What's special Diandra. From then on you just flattered him. There are many other women who suffer more from it. Papa and Mama can also find a woman who is much more everything than Diandra."
Galen stood up from his seat hearing his Father's words. He had suspected that his parents could not accept Diandra because the woman accused Adit of abusing him.
"Maybe there are women out there who are better than Diandra, but all I love is one Diandra. It won't be the same even if you replace any woman."
"You've been fooled by love. That's why you believe what the woman said, even if there's no evidence. People who harass you are responsible. Realize Galen, you will not be able to live only with love. You're gonna need a lot of money. So think of Papa's offer."
"Sorry, Pa. I stick with the stance, I'll go if with Diandra. One more thing, I'm sure Diandra didn't lie if he had harassed Bang Adit. I want to be responsible for him more and more, because everything that happens is also because of me. Bang Adit wants to repay me by harassing Diandra."
"How can Diandra brainwash you, so you can trust that woman more than your siblings. What did that woman give you that you were so insistent on defending her?"
"Father who has gone wrong, the mind of the father has been blinded because of the affection of the child so that it covers the heart and mind if Adit is guilty. Can't you see who's wrong?"
Without Galen and his mama guessing, Papa raised his hand and slapped Galen's cheek.
"Based on the useless child, I don't know what the woman said so you can think so. Before he comes in, you and Adit get along. How can you be against the family now?"
Galen holds his hot cheek from papa's slap. Mama held Papa's hand, afraid that the man would throw his hand back.
"I think enough of our chatter, Pa. I wouldn't have left without Diandra. My decision is unanimous, whatever you think of Diandra I don't care. I'll prove Diandra isn't as bad as Papa saw."
Galen greets Papa and his Mama. However, Papa did not welcome Galen's hand.
"I'm pampering. Sorry if I let Papa and Mama down."
Galen stepped out of her legs leaving her parents behind. Just a few steps heard Papa Galen's voice say in a loud voice.
"If you don't want to go to Singapore, never come to the company again. You try to live without family help. Is not it more important for you to be a woman than a family."
Galen turned her back and smiled at her parents.
"Alright,Pa. If that's Papa's decision. Tomorrow I just come to get my stuff. Again sorry for disappointing as a child. Not that I meant to be disobedient. Sorry, I."
After saying that, Galen set his foot back leaving his parents.
