Alehandro who was curious because Dara did not go down and then began to go upstairs to his room. He heard the sound of sobs coming from inside the room.
With curiosity Alehandro then opened the room door and saw Dara sitting crying holding a paper in her hand.
The deg!
Alehandro stopped breathing with slow steps as he approached Dara.
"Where," he called.
Dara lifted her face that was wet with tears. He then lifted the paper. He wanted to say something but his voice would not come out.
"I can explain!" alehandro was worried. His heart ached to see the woman cry.
Dara's body trembled more and more, his breath was already wheezing staring angrily at Alehandro.
"I didn't want to do what Maria wanted to do at first when I saw your condition being pregnant."
Dara threw her face to the side.
"Indeed I thought you were like any other woman you know how society judges pregnant women out of wedlock. However, when I saw the Emperor calm down in your arms, I began to think whether what Maria said was true if the Emperor needed you to be his mother." Alehandro sat down next to Dara.
"But baby you belong to Kris. You seem to love her so much and I can't be selfish by forcing you to accept me just because the Emperor needs a mother."
"We've only been together for a few days but it shows all your nature and frankly I've learned a lot from you. I was constantly in grief at the loss of Mary, at the same time I saw you steadfast when I saw Kris the person you love wholeheartedly choosing to live with another woman. While the position is you are pregnant with Kris's child. You should cry out in disappointment and anger at fate but don't you stay upright not showing your fragility."
"I'm ashamed to see myself as weak and then I start following what you're doing, learning to get up and start living the day hard." Dara looked at Alehandro.
"Pity begins to feel when you see you have to fight hard when giving birth to Rose. Especially when Kris wants your baby, I feel angry at the man and intend to marry you so that you have full rights and strength to fight Kris. But God wants something else. You go far."
"Pity?" said Dara hoarse while laughing sadly.
"I'm sorry if it hurt you. But I hope you'll listen to my story until it's over. At first I felt sorry to see your life go awry. My heart is not calm after you. Then I started telling people to track him down until I found you in Bali."
"I wanted to bring you back here, but I saw a smile on your face, a smile I haven't seen since we met. You laugh freely like you find peace and quiet while living there. Then I started thinking of other ways I could help you without you knowing."
"I am a fool to feel that all my efforts are the result of my hard work!" Dara.
"That's purely your hard work. I'm just helping you out a little."
"Damn! Now I know why some bank clerk came to offer me a loan in low installments, it felt awkward but I didn't think in that direction. Then the store owner who had rejected me violently suddenly came and offered his store back at a low price. You're such a bitch! I feel like all my efforts wouldn't have worked if you hadn't intervened like that. I was fooled by your kindness. I am without you a weak and low-leveled Dara, I... ."
Alehandro covered Dara's mouth with his hand and shook his head.
"Everything you say feels like fun like it's about to catapult me. But alas, I was falling at the bottom of a deep abyss after reading this letter."
"Why do you think that way?"
"You married me not because of your heart but at the request of Mary. So may I be disappointed and angry because of this. We'd better not just continue this relationship. We can send a letter of cancellation of the marriage proposal legally. I told you I wanted love. I don't want to get married just because of compulsion. You can find a woman you like because you don't have to choose me."
"It's over!" ask Alehandro. "Is there anything you want to say again?"
"If I wanted to marry you just because the Emperor has been a long time I would have chased after you but not. It took me a long time to think and understand my heart. Pity is a long time concern. That attention began to grow in taste as I began to be convinced at that moment I began to doubt. Doubtful about your heart, do you still love Kris?''
Dara stared in disbelief at Alehandro's explanation.
"What do you mean by the word sure?"
"Surely if I choose you because my heart is not because of Mary's request or any other wish. Sure you are a good woman who takes care of herself and her honor. And sure if you'll be a life partner who will be faithful to accompany me until death separates."
Dara gasped at Alehandro's words. She was silent, her sobbing voice was gone.
"Ale, is there me in your heart even a little. Tell me honestly," he said expectantly.
Alehandro took Dara's hand and placed it on his chest.
"Can't you hear my heart beating so hard when you're by my side?"
"I have told you whether love should be spoken in words. Isn't everything I do enough to show my love? You judge me only from your point of view but don't want to hear your heart. I'm sure your heart can feel what I feel" the man said firmly.
Dara then went into Alehandro's arms.
"I'm sorry if I doubted you" he said.
"I see, we've both been hurt by love but we can heal each other's wounds."
Dara nodded her head.
"You always question how I feel but I never once asked you how you feel about me" Alehandro said, making Dara nervous and breaking free from Alehandro's embrace.
"What do you want to ask then I'll answer all your questions" Dara looked back at the man.
Alehandro then rubbed Dara's tear marks on her cheek and took the dark mane that covered Dara's face and then tucked it behind her ear.
"I just wanted to ask you how you feel about me, that's all. If you still have feelings for another man then be frank!"
