Mentari for Dawn

CHAPTER 18 - Should I Trust You??

Arriving at the city where he lived, Fajar stared at a cafe he met in the middle of the road he passed. That kind of place he needed at times like this.

Dawn decided to stop by the entertainment venue that night. Arriving inside, he immediately ordered liquor until he finished a few glasses and bottles.

In a half-conscious state, Zahra's shadow still continued to cross and dominate the contents of his head. Why was destiny never on his side?! Why did everyone he loved, in the end leave him?!

Why did he always feel like there was never anyone who really wanted him?! Even Omanya himself never thought of him as a grandson. And he resigned to his destiny as an unregarded grandson.

After the household, when he was happy to welcome the presence of a baby that would be born from the womb of his beloved wife, both of them left him for good.

And now almost the same thing is happening again. Although for now the woman he loved with the baby he contained was not snatched away by death. Except by another man, who already had it.

Even if he has said sincerely and willingly, but to practice it is not that easy. From the bottom of his heart, the pain and hurt but not bleeding was felt.

Argghhh!! His life is really sad. I think he just wants to die! So that he can be with his parents, wife and children there.

"You want to call me anymore?! Still not satisfied after you and your Mama had taken control of my Papa and had me expelled from my own home! Already snatched the man I love with his cunning?! Want something else now?!" Dance rebuked the person who contacted her who was none other than Moza with a fierce anger.

"Tar wait, please don't turn it off first. I have something to talk to you about. Please listen to me for a moment. I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have cheated my brother. I'm so sorry. All that I do because I am dominated by envy and jealousy towards you.

Because I think your life is too perfect. You have a good, rich and loving Papa. Even in the campus, everyone is confusing you. Because you are beautiful and smart. You can get anything and anyone you want. Unlike me, who has a father who is a begal and a drug addict.

Everyone on the campus looked at me with a casual look. It's so different when they look at you full of admiration" Moza's cell phone pulled out her uneg-uneg. His voice sounds sad. Either his grief was sincere or just a mere charade. Dance could not confirm it.

"Then what's my fault if I get all that?! I never asked for it!! I'm just grateful for what I have!! And you know why you can't be seen so special by others?! Because you are rotten!! You don't know what it feels like to be grateful for the breath and life God has given you!

You are busy nailing to someone else's destiny, and destroying someone else's happiness, because you think you can take that person's happiness! If you think you can be happy by destroying the happiness of others, you are wrong. It will backfire and karma for yourself in the future"

Long-distance Dance lectured Moza bluntly in high tones. He did not care what his sly half-brother thought and felt. The woman really made him furious and emotional.

It could be that he destroyed the lives of others on the grounds of envy and envy, because his life was not in accordance with his expectations. Basic heartless woman!

"Dari wait. Please don't turn it off. I know I've been very guilty and sinned against you. I'm so sorry. I thought I'd be happy once I managed to pit you and Papa, and get you out of this house. Turns out I was wrong. My life is constantly haunted by guilt, because I've been mean to you....."

"And I don't have time to listen to that drama of yours. To the point, just tell me what you want right now because I'm busy" Tukas Tari flat.

"Did I not hear wrong? You're gonna explain everything to Papa? Are you taking the wrong medicine, or are you setting up a new trap for me?" Accuse Dance with cynicism.

"No Tar, I'm serious. I'll be honest with Papa that I'm the one who set you up. I've engineered those photos and videos. Although I'm sure it will make Papa very angry, maybe even hate me, but I'm ready. What matters is that I made amends. But if I may, I'd like to see you...."

"Why do you want to meet me? Especially your plan?"

"I-I'm not planning anything. Please believe me. I just want to see your condition. I'm so worried about you. I want to have a casual conversation with you. Later after that we both went home to see Papa, and explained everything" Moza said in a sad voice and sounded clear.

Making Dance worry between having to believe it or not. Should he give his trust to that woman? She once gave her complete trust, like a sister who trusted her own brother.

But the woman stabbed him in the back, making his life as miserable as it is now. Is it true that this time the woman regretted all her actions? Should he give her a second chance?

"I beg Tar. Please give me one more chance"

"Where" Finally Dance again voiced in a cold tone. Moza happily gave her location address.

"Tar, you want to go? Where are you going these nights?" Reproach Ranty when he saw Dari out of the room wearing full clothes, such as long jeans combined with a tie front t-shirt in white, sneakers with matching colors. As well as a sling bag attached to his shoulder.

"Yes Ran. Mm.... L'm.... Wanna see Moza...." Dari answered with a stammer.

"What?! You want to see Moza? What did you meet him for?" Ranty said in surprise.

"Mmmm.... He called me earlier. He said he regretted everything he did. He's apologizing to me. And he promised to explain everything to Papa, if I'm innocent. He invited me to meet. He said he wanted to talk to me in person"

"You're sure, he's really sincere about regretting everything he's done to you?" Ranty asked doubtfully.

"I don't know. But.... There's no harm, am I giving him a chance? Who knows, he really has regretted and wants to correct his mistake" Dari also replied with the same ragu.

"If you're sure you want to see him.... Yes already. But I warn you, be careful. Don't trust him too much. Don't let him destroy you again"

"Yes, you calm down. I'll be careful. Anyways.... I don't trust him either. I just gave him a chance, because I wanted to see if he was really sorry"

"Yes be careful. Don't be long gone" Ranty said with a heavy heart and resigned.
