Loving my Friend's Beloved

The s3 eps 215

A few days after the incident, Barra chose to stay away from Carissa for a while. It is true what his mother said. He had to be patient to get Carissa's heart. And in this way Barra will win Carissa's heart. Actually he couldn't bear to not get close to Carissa. But if this time is too close to the woman, there is even Carissa assume that she is labeled as a lover of people.

Actually not completely away. It's just that Barra tried to be ordinary if accidentally met with Carissa. Carissa is currently close to Jenny. Sometimes they meet accidentally.

Meanwhile, Carissa's relationship with Dhefin is still as usual. Indeed, a few days ago since the attack carried out by Barra on Dhefin. The man had not dared to meet Carissa because there were still bruises on her face. Dhefin reasoned he was on a business trip out of town. And Carissa believed it.

Now the wound on Dhefin's face had healed and it had no more marks. So he can be reunited with Carissa. And Dhefin was relieved that for a few days he had managed to avoid his Papa. Plus today his father is on a business trip abroad. So his father doesn't know about his son's problems yet.

“I'll keep avenging my mama for you Bar. Because of your mother, my mother suffered during her marriage to Papa. Even until my mother died. Lives must be paid for lives.” Dhefin muttered in anger.

Dhefin recalled a few years ago when he was in college. At that time he was visiting the house of the late Opanya who indeed no one occupied. The house will belong to Dhefin.

Dhefin went into his late mother's room. He saw a portrait of his mother's face attached to the wall of the room, and when Dhefin accidentally opened the dresser drawer, there was a book believed to be a diary that looked outdated.

From there Dhefin took a grudge with Barra. She did not accept it because of Mama Barra who had made her mother live to suffer. In the diary, it is written that Stefi never received the slightest attention from her husband during pregnancy. That's because there is still the name of the woman he loves very much Kay.

Dhefin read the diary until last before his mother gave birth to him after he died. He could not see the struggle of his father since his mother died as a single parent until he was 6 years old. Dhefin's heart was already too covered with grudges and fury.

“Mas? Already home?” Carissa asked when she saw Dhefin come to her shop.

“Already. That's why I came here. Because I miss you so much.” Answer Dhefin.

“Let's walk all over lunch.” Bring Dhefin.

“Iya bentar Mas I settle this first.” Carissa.

After getting her work done, Carissa and Dhefin immediately went to lunch. The two of them went to one of the restaurants in the city of J. on the way, Dhefin continued to hold Carissa's hand tightly. I don't know why he's so scared to lose Carissa. Dhefin was afraid that Barra would tell Carissa everything about the incident the other day with Astrid. Dhefin really loves Carissa. And his relationship with Astrid was just a relationship of liking and need for each other.

“Apaan sih Mas from earlier hold hands.” Carissa.

“I'm afraid you'll leave me.” replied Dhefin.

“Yes, I want to leave Mas” replied Carissa in a seductive tone.

“Don't do it dong Darling.” Dhefin.

“I'll go to the toilet later when I get to the restaurant. So yes I have to leave Mas dong.” Answer Carissa without burden.

Dhefin just ruffled Carissa's hair in a daze. He also felt relieved that Carissa was just joking around. Dhefin will try to keep Carissa from meeting Barra which will cause her relationship to be in danger.

Arriving at the restaurant, the two of them were already sitting in one of the visitor seats. Dhefin chose some food for his lunch. Carissa asked permission to go to the toilet for a while.

After Carissa came out of the toilet and was about to return to the place where Dhefin was, she accidentally met Barra with a man who had helped her while at the party.

“Iya.” Answer Barra is short and flat.

While Xavier who was next to Barra continued to look at Carissa with a gaze that could not be interpreted.

Barra immediately left with Xavier after answering a greeting from Carissa. Carissa is a little strange with Barra's unusual attitude if they meet. Why in Carissa's heart was she saddened by Barra's indifferent attitude.

Carissa sat down next to Dhefin. He saw Dhefin was playing his gadget who was not sure what. Carissa doesn't care. Because right now he was thinking about Barra's changing attitude towards him.

“Eh is done? sorry I didn't know you were sitting next to me.” Dhefin.

“Iya Mas.” Answer Carissa.

Not long after, their food orders had arrived. Carissa and Dhefin immediately ate. They both ate quietly. Carissa who was still silent thought of Barra, while Dhefin had no idea what she was thinking at the moment.

“You don't be lazy El! Find a job there. How long will you be unemployed like this? Mama can not stand living in this narrow rented house.” said Melly.

“Iya Ma. Patience dong Ma. Elvina is also confused.” Elvina answered, none other than Astrid.

Since she was fired from Vito's company, Astrid has lived with her mother in a small rented house. Because he can no longer afford the rent for his apartment. To this day he is still unemployed. I don't know why every time I apply for a job, I get rejected. Astrid seemed frustrated by this.

Ever since her rottenness was discovered by Barra, Astrid had never met her former lover again. He also seemed to have no more face if he had to meet Barra. But for Mama's sake, she was also trying to find a way to get Barra back.

Astrid also never again communicated with Dhefin, after the incident. Astrid actually really needs Dhefin to be asked for a job. Dhefin was very difficult to contact.

“Sorry Sir. From the information I have, Mr. Rey is currently on a business trip abroad. So I can't see him.” Bram told Vito.

Vito sighed softly as he got word from Bram. He wants to immediately resolve this misunderstanding with Rey so that Dhefin does not take revenge with his family. But unfortunately he had to postpone it first until Rey came home from abroad.

“Good. Make sure Barra stays safe and never see Dhefin again.” Vito.

“Good Mr.”
