"I'm sorry, can't I?" merry said with a mantab.
"Why??" Daris is shocked by Merry's refusal.
Merry remained silent and did not answer. Weight also actually conveys this. That means he will soon lose loved ones he just met. His tongue is too thick to convey this. But all this Merry had to do.
"Mer, why?" ask Daris again.
"Aren't you comfortable with me? Are you uncomfortable with my family? Am I wrong?" Daris asked Merry a question.
"Why?" ask Daris again in a lower tone.
Not because I am uncomfortable, sir, I am actually comfortable! But maybe our destiny is like this! inner Merry.
Merry smiled at Daris. "This Sir!" Merry paused for a moment.
"I'm to the point that Liam doesn't want me to be his mother!" Daris who heard this instantly wasted his coarse breath.
"It's nobody's fault, sir! What happens to us is the best life scenario!" Merry hurriedly said so when she saw the look of emotion appear on Daris' face.
Merry is worried that Daris will be angry with Liam because he does not want Merry to be his mother, although it seems impossible anyway, considering Daris who loves his children very much! Maybe Daris was just surprised and disappointed because he did not get married.
"Liam just doesn't know that you're a good woman to be Mer's mother!" said Daris who tried to give understanding to Merry. But it cannot be denied, Daris' heart was also disappointed.
Stabilizing, convincing, and securing the heart of others is not easy. It is also difficult to work if from the first there is no sense of click in the heart.
Merry chuckled at the words Daris just now. "Are you sure of me?" Just relax, so as not to be impressed like a young man who is in a breakup.
Daris looked at Merry with sadness. "I know you're a good woman, a woman who won't hurt my children!"
"If you leave our lives, what about the Emir?" ask Daris. Honestly Daris still refused with what he just heard.
Finding a good and sincere woman is hard! Although honestly Daris also does not understand whether he loves Merry or not.
Merry remained faithful to give her smile to Daris. For Merry, a smile for this time is the best medicine so that Daris is not disappointed.
At least, Daris felt a little calm because he saw Merry who kept smiling. Not to see Merry crying, disappointed, or angry.
Even when his own heart was also disappointed, Merry still thought of Daris' heart so as not to feel disappointed.
"I'm sorry if my presence only lasts a while sir! Sorry if my presence left wounds in the hearts of Mr, Emir, and Luham! But I can't sir! I also feel inadequate and insecure about being a good mother to your children!" It was beyond Merry's awareness that his mouth spoke so, this was very dramatic and seemed even more so for Merry.
"Please don't upset Liam about this! Liam is a good boy and a very devoted child to his parents, he loves his mother very much, I became envious of having a child as good as Liam!" Merry said so while chuckling. Think positively so as not to hurt yourself and hurt others.
"The boy has not accepted Mer's true circumstances!" answer Daris with a wistful. Yes this is the fate of the broken home child, so the victim.
"Yes sir, so I pray that you can meet a good woman who can take Liam's heart! Not taking her heart to forget her real mother! But, take his heart to realize that life goes on and must accept the presence of new people in our lives! With a record he still likes Mbak Ambar as his birth mother! Mother who has risked her life to conceive and give birth to them!" merry said at length.
"Can't that woman be you Mer?" asked Daris while looking at Merry deeply.
Merry looked down because he did not have the courage to look back at Daris. The way to look at Daris who is deep, sad, and serious makes Merry so mixed heart.
"Can't sir!" Merry wants it all over soon. Then, boldly Merry raised his head to look at Daris.
Daris held both of Merry's hands on the table. However, Merry tries to let go.
What the hell Mr. Daris, not ashamed of what people see! gerutu Merry in heart
"Please Mer, just for a second!" pinta Daris wistfully, but his grip remained tight. As it turned out, the pretty bodyguard was outmatched by Daris. Either because they lose or because they give up, I don't know.
Finally Merry relented letting Daris hold his hand, thickening his embarrassment from being seen by many people. Although no one actually saw it, it was just Merry's feeling of embarrassment to feel like someone was making out in a public place.
"Aren't you willing to fight for Liam's heart?" ask Daris who looks very different than usual. Daris who is usually cheerful and warm is now turning sad.
Get Liam's heart? Your heart just seems like I haven't got it! inner Merry.
Daris alone never revealed I love you Mer!
Merry had already established her heart not to continue this, only Merry knew when Liam was so begging Merry not to marry his papa! Merry appreciates everyone's decisions, even the little ones! Especially considering Liam's rejection that had been shown from the beginning they met!
"I will continue my life with people who love and appreciate me very much Sir! I apologize profusely!" Daris was very disappointed because Merry still refused.
Do not remember if previously Merry was a woman who was indifferent and likes to live quietly without any fuss? Yes, the cute woman who suddenly turned into a fairy godmother and forgot all her ugliness when she was with the Daris family. Now, the woman wants to return to her comfort zone without anyone bothering her anymore.
The darling? Merry loves Daris' kids so much! Therefore Merry does not want to hurt Liam, who will definitely be contagious to Luham and Emir!
Enough to get here!
"Please help me to slowly move away from the children sir! I'm sure they'll forget me sooner! Don't ever meet me unless we meet accidentally, it doesn't matter!" Daris did not expect Merry really wanted to stay away from his family.
Just now his family found something new that can give color, this time must lose it.
Merry doesn't want to deal with them. Actually his heart also refused, but if they remain with Liam's heart will still hurt, then Luham and Emir will still love Merry could even be a greater regret. It would hurt them more.
"May you and your family be happy and protected by God!" Merry took off Daris's hand, while Daris could only stay still.
"I say yes Sir, Assalamualaikum!" Merry got up from his seat and walked away from Daris.
"Do you really not want to fight Mer? Fighting with me?" It was Daris who made Merry stop in his tracks.
Merry looked back at Daris who was still sitting on the chair.
"Sorry sir I can't, thank you!" merry answered and then stepped back while wearing his sunglasses.
"Waalaikumussalam," Daris answered Merry's greeting slowly when Merry was no longer seen.
Daris exhaled heavily, how heavy is this at the moment? Daris had to give a mother to his children, but there were only children who did not give their blessing. He should have fought, but why wouldn't Merry fight with him? Is it Merry's day? How strongly did Liam refuse so Merry wouldn't fight? What did Liam say?
Like Merry's invitation to Daris yesterday to meet at the cafe, they just met to talk about the refusal of Daris' invitation to marry.
While Merry who was sitting in the steering wheel of the car took off his glasses and took his phone. He opened a photo gallery on his mobile phone to see photos of Emir, Luham, and Liam. Merry gently rubbed the photo of the three of them that Merry took while at the zoo yesterday.
Merry stared inside their innocent faces. His heart suddenly felt pain.
"Emir, sorry Mother!! Luham, Liam, sorry Auntie too!!" merry said with a wistful.
"Huuffhh," Merry made a long breath, put her cell phone into a bag, then drove the car back home.
Turns out, it all has to end up here.

How does Merry continue to be the same as Daris?ðŸ˜
