Marriage, Love Later

The other side of the man

Kelvin comes out of hiding when he sees Shawn in the car, and leaves. Kelvin felt something was wrong, he frowned.

"The guy went out of the restaurant alone? Does that mean Kiara's still inside?" kelvin murmured.

If it is, then Kelvin is given the opportunity to talk to his brother. There was still something stuck in his mind, and he had to get an explanation directly from Kiara.

Kelvin entered the restaurant. There's nothing stopping him, so Kelvin can go free. Their table was upstairs, in a special room. The creaking of the door was so smooth, that Kiara did not notice it.

His heart gripped with a smile when he saw Kiara was looking at the rest of the wine in the glass.

"Sister!" call Kelvin, hoarse voice from crying.

Kiara glanced and froze with the end of the glass still stuck to her lips. Slowly, Kiara lowered the glass in astonishment, not expecting to see Kelvin standing in the doorway.

"Kelvin?" muttered.

Kelvin rushed over, his legs as if light because his heart was so carefree to meet his brother. Without turning his gaze, Kelvin sat down on the chair that was in front of Kiara. Kelvin's smile grew, but Kiara was surprised by his presence.

"You didn't go home with mom?" kiara asked in disbelief.

Kelvin shakes. "If I'm allowed, I want to come with you" he replied, his face clear.

Kiara let out a sigh that settled in her chest, and her face was grim. A request that is difficult to grant. "Keep, mama how? Mama realize you haven't reached home yet? What if mom gets angry with you?"

"Biarin. I'm gonna run away from home. I don't want to live with a lying mother like you." Kelvin asserted with flaming eyes full of deep hatred for the mother.

"You can't say that, '" said Kiara gently, patting Kelvin on the shoulder. "Mama love you. Mama needs you."

"Emang is right. He took my brother's name to persuade me to leave Indonesia. Mama is too much! I don't want to stay with him!"

Kiara sighed, giving up. "If you go, pity mama alone. Mama needs you, Dek." He turned his back on being able to persuade Kelvin again.

"He doesn't need his kids! If so, he shouldn't have sold it." Kelvin hates his mother even more.

That's a painful reality. But, after pondering for quite a while, Kiara understood one thing.

His soft smile spread, gently stroking Kelvin's shoulder as he said, "Sister is indeed worth selling because it is the brother of this family's hope. At that time our lives were in a difficult situation, Brother was forced to be grounded in order to be able to pay all the debts of our family."

Kelvin's eyes narrowed while tilting his head. Wonder at once riled up. How could her brother be as firm and still kind to the stepmother who had sold him?

"Aren't you sad or hurt by your mom? Brother was forced to marry a cunning man earlier," exclaimed Kelvin excitedly, then sigh* disappointed.

Kiara shook her head, smiling. "Daddy, I told you, didn't I? Don't judge...."

"Okay, I know! But, the man looked unfriendly, cold .. ah! I'm more grateful Brother and brother Rama deh!" grumble Kelvin frustrated.

The words even sounded funny, Kiara until she smiled amusedly. "Daddy, you know what? That guy made this meeting. Brother asked for it, and he accepted it. He's not as bad as you think. Brother could have asked Shawn to bring you to live with me, but I can't do that. I was thinking about mama. Mama loves you so much, you're the only one she's got."

Kelvin lowered his head, his heart softened a little with that inducement. He had to admit, his mother was very fond of him, but his treatment of his brother.

"Kelvin," as his name was mentioned, the teenager raised his face and looked at Kiara who was smiling, "mama loves me. He sold me not just for his own good. My mom sold me to the right guy. Shawn can live my life."

Kelvin looked at her carefully, looking for and deducing the meaning of Kiara's facial features. "Is Brother happy with her?"

Kiara's smile faded, her gaze wavering and looking doubtful. "Maybe not yet, but later Big Brother will be happy. Even though he looks cold, but he has a good side that is not shown."

Then, both are silent. Apparently, Kelvin is struggling with his mind. Kiara let it go until Kelvin's feelings stabilized. After seeing a smile on her lips, Kiara offered Kelvin some food. Kelvin hasn't touched his food yet.

...🦋...

Shawn smiled satisfied with Henry's work. After finishing business with Dave, Shawn drives alone to the hotel. His smile grew, thinking of something he wanted to do with Kiara.

Is that girl going to let him sleep in bed with her?

Shawn's mind had already floated far away to it, rushing to the room Kiara occupied. However, before knocking on the door, Shawn corrected his attitude. He fixed his coat, and then he mendeham. He knocked on the door of the room.

It didn't take long for Kiara to open the door. Kiara was stunned as soon as she saw his figure. "You're here? I thought...."

"Can I come in first? I'll tell you everything" said Shawn, not forgetting the cold-ass style.

Kiara shifted a little, giving way to Shawn. They walked together towards the bed room. However, Shawn frowned when he saw someone asleep in the bed he was going to be in with Kiara.

Shawn turned his head dumbfounded at Kiara, pointing at the figure. "She .. isn't your sister?"

Kiara hesitated. At first, he wanted to answer, but Kiara chose to pull Shawn up to the sofa in the side room. The man invited him to sit on one of the sofas, then offered him a drink.

Shawn squinting. This kind gesture, is Kiara trying to take her heart? This girl must have wanted to ask him something more.

"I don't want to drink" replied Shawn, after a long sigh. "Say, what do you want to ask of me?"

Caught too! But, Kiara did not want to say it first, sticking to the initial plan. "I'll say it later, but we'll talk about it over a drink."

"OKAY. But, I prepared," said Shawn, without a second thought.

"Don't you believe me?" ask Kiara, offended.

"I'm sure you can't buy poison, but you're gonna get me drunk, and then do something" Shawn said as he approached the kitchen. "Remember, Kiara. You can't run away from me."

"I know!" sahut Kiara. "But, I wouldn't be as petty as it knows!"

Shawn scoffed at him, chuckling with two glasses and a bottle of cola, and then putting it on the table. Kiara narrowed, then smiled wryly.

"Tumbens. I thought, you're going to take the good wine that's on the shelf there?" comment Kiara.

Shawn poured a glass of cola and put in some ice crystals with a smile. "I told you, I don't want to get drunk tonight."

The man gave Kiara his first glass of cola while smiling knots, then poured her cola for her. Kiara was flattered, not expecting the man to pour her a drink without being asked. And he accepted it rather awkwardly and hesitantly.

"Start telling a story."

After sipping a little cola, Kiara said, "Actually I didn't ask for anything. Just ... Can you let Kelvin sleep here tonight?"

Kiara's face is adorable. Shawn smiled again, and Kiara was stunned again. As he told Kelvin earlier, Shawn has a different side that he never showed.

"Em .. If I allow it, what reward will I get?" goda Shawn, what a habit to be human!

Kiara sneered. "Based on business brains! A little bit of cuan," he shouted in a soft tone.

"That's it! I don't want to lose dong." Shawn doesn't want to lose.

Challenge accepted! After all, Kiara did have to give a reply other than a thank you for her kindness.

"Okay, what do you want?"

An invitation he was waiting for. It was unexpected that Kiara would agree to it. "Em ... What, huh? A kiss?"[]
