"If only because of that request did Mother invite me to come, then in the future Mother would not have to bother like this ..."
"No, King ... It's not so ..."
With a grim expression Dian Melinda quickly brushed aside the King's flat line in response to what she had just uttered.
After dinner, Dian Melinda asked for a minute to talk to the King in the workspace of her late husband Prabu, who was also the King's father.
The main goal is clear, Dian Melinda wants Reza's involvement in the management of the Adiguna Corporation which is now fully controlled by the King, once her son is willing to marry Naysila in accordance with the wishes of the late Raffly Adiguna.
After Prabu's sudden departure, Dian Melinda felt she no longer had hope as a guarantee of the future for Reza, given how Reza and herself had no place in the eyes of a Raffly Adiguna.
Dian Melinda had been waiting for all these opportunities long enough and wanted to realize her mission as soon as possible, but unexpectedly the King even responded to her request with a trivial sentence like just now.
'I swear by anything, why the more days, the more I feel I can't recognize my own son ...'
'All the attitude of this King is certainly due to the harsh doctrine of old Raffly Adiguna who has been extinct!'
'Si al, even after the old man died, let alone win the King's heart, unlike Reza, I even felt the more the day the King became more and more distant from my reach ... Also the more I can't control ...!'
The regret of Dian Melinda came over a period of time, increasing in number, while with ease again the King was able to pull himself off easily.
Dian Melinda did not even know, for years either deadly poison that has been planted Rafly Adiguna for the King, so that makes his son was so easy to argue and underestimate him.
Dian Melinda who sat at a distance of not less than two meters, held the work table of the late Prabu which this time was occupied by the King, was seen staring at his youngest son so deeply.
"Dear king, for God's sake, son, I invite you to come solely because of Mother's longing for you. Whether you realize it or not ... But ever since your father died, it seems like you've almost forgotten about Mom ..."
"That's not true." said Raja quickly, reflecting his discomfort at Dian Melinda's words.
"But mother can feel it, if all this time you've been so far away from Mother ..."
"Didn't every time you called, or sent, a message, as I remember never once did I ignore it?"
"Yes, that's true. But King ..."
"If I'm in a situation where I really can't take a call or read and reply to Mom's message, don't I always do feedback on all that ...?"
"Yes King ... Aye ... But ..."
"I also always meet all the needs of Mother every month ..."
"Oh, my God, King ... Why are you even bringing that up? You make mom sad .." Dian Melinda concluded while hiding a sense of panic, realizing that the King began to discuss the monthly rations with a fantastic amount, he said, that was routinely accepted by him every early month for the last few years, right after Prabu's departure.
"King, I'm sorry. Not that I want to hurt your heart but please understand how big your longing is for you. Can't hold you ... I even had to keep my distance so far, just to be able to sit down and talk to you ... Mother's own son ..."
The king threw away his face hearing Dian Melinda's words.
Indeed, for a long time, the King secretly began to hate his current state.
In the past, when the King began to experience oddities because of interacting with others, the King could actually enjoy his solitude.
But everything changed when the King began to grow up and began to assume the responsibilities of Adiguna Corporation.
That's where the King initially understood, that even though his body looks very healthy and fit, but actually he was really sick. Not just physically ... But also mental ...!
Unfortunately when the King realized the great shortcomings that existed in him it was too late, because at this time, his entire body and soul seemed to have been well-suggested, to detect anyone who is nearby as a threat.
"King ... It could be due to the age factor of the mother who is getting older, so somehow lately I always want to be able to meet you, as well as Reza, then spend a lot of time together ..."
"Mom knows for myself that I'm very busy. My work is very much, and I also have to handle everything .." said the King, this time his tone seemed to drop half an octave from before.
Dian Melinda knows that the King is sorry for accidentally touching the monthly money problem, but this time he does not want to be rash.
"It is precisely because I know how busy you are, and how heavy your responsibilities are right now, that is why I reveal to you my heart, dear ..."
The king refrained from refuting his mother's words first, but even so the look of his sharp eyes never moved from the figure of Dian Melinda.
"Mom understand you are very busy, then it is not necessary to frequent, but can you occasionally come and stay here one or two nights? We can have dinner together ... have a light chat ..."
Dian Melinda seemed to catch her breath for a moment, as she looked at the King blankly.
"Then about Reza ... Why can't you trust him? Although Reza is not really an Adiguna like you ... But Reza is Mom's son too ..."
"Mother, I didn't mean to underestimate Reza. But the deceased grandfather did not ..."
"King, consider this as part of your kindness to Reza ... Also for Mom ..."
"But, Ma'am ..."
"Your grandfather is dead, your father is too, and I'm no longer young. Kings ... I beg you very much, please give Reza a chance ... For Mom's sake ..."
