My Brother's Bed Rattles

Ayden Decree 2

"I'm sorry, Om."

Mr. Thunder held his chest tight after hearing Ayden's decision, as well as Renatta. The girl even sobbed as she buried her face on the father's shoulder.

"Can't you think about this decision again, Ayden? You have broken the agreement that once I and your late father agreed to," said Mr. Thunder.

"I'm sorry, Om. But feelings cannot be forced. Not once have I tried to open my heart to Renatta, but I still can't. My heart remains for the woman" Ayden said steadily.

It was clear the look on the disappointed face of Mr. Thunder. Several times it sounded that the middle-aged man was breathing heavily. He did not even stop wiping the top of Renatta's sobbing head and tried to calm his daughter.

"Well, I accept your decision. However, honestly I still hope that someday you come back here and receive the matchmaking that I and your late daddy agreed to."

"But, Dad!" Renatta protest. He did not like it when the father just resigned to accept Ayden's decision to refuse their match.

"That's it, Renatta."

Disappointed Renatta immediately ran away from the room and returned to his room.

Ayden looked wrong. He was happy because he finally managed to bring out the unkempt that had been in his heart all this time. However, he also felt uneasy when he witnessed Renatta's grief.

"I'm sorry, Om." Ayden bowed his body slightly.

"It's okay, Ayden. You better just go home. And as for Renatta, he'll be fine."

Ayden smiled slightly as he approached Mr. Thunder. He greeted the middle-aged man and then hugged him while thanking him very much.

"Thank you very much for your understanding, Om. I promise I will keep remembering all the goodness of Om and Aunt Ara all this time to me and mommy."

Mr. Thunder patted Ayden on the shoulder with a smile. "Together, Ayden. That's all I did because your late daddy did too. He is so kind to our family and always ready to extend both hands when we are in distress" continued Mr. Thunder.

After saying goodbye, Ayden immediately returned to his car.

"Well, don't forget the invitation" Guntur said before Ayden drove his car away from the middle-aged man's residence.

Ayden chuckles. "Of course, Om. Just pray everything's good."

"Yes, I will always wish you all the best" replied Mr. Thunder.

Ayden nodded then immediately drove the four-wheeled vehicle towards the big road.

After Ayden's death, Mr. Thunder returned to his house. He rushed to Renatta's room, where his daughter was still crying and complaining to her mother.

"I don't want to, Mom. I don't want to" said Renatta in between his sobs.

Bu Ara could only sigh deeply as she gently stroked the top of Renatta's head lying on his thigh.

"You can't force someone's feelings, Renatta. Ayden told me honestly that he couldn't love you. I think it's better because he's choosing to be honest now. Than later?"

"What's better, Mom? This heart hurts so much! Sick," Renatta groaned as he clutched his chest tightly.

Chequek! The pink room door was open. Looks like Mr. Thunder is walking towards Renatta's bed.

Renatta rushed up from his position and sat down against the wall, turning his back to the father who was now standing right in front of him.

"Bad fuck!" pekik Renatta while bending his face annoyed.

"I'm sorry, Son. But this is what's best for you."

"Halah, no Dad, no Mom, you guys are the same! I don't understand my feelings!" upset Renatta while crossing his arms to the chest.

Pak Guntur and Bu Ara could only look at each other with sad faces. Mr. Thunder grabbed his wife's hand and invited her out of the room.

"Mom, we better get back. Let Renatta alone, he needs time to think about this carefully," said Mr. Guntur.

Ms. Ara nodded her head slowly. "Yes, I'm right."

The middle-aged couple immediately came out from inside Renatta's room.

"Akhs! You guys are really shitty!" renatta shouted as he threw his pillow and bolster towards the door right after his parents passed through the door.

The middle-aged couple sat down on the sofa of the main room and started chatting in the room.

"Dad so remember our love story, ma'am." Mr. Thunder smiled wryly.

Just now that Mr. Thunder was reminding of their past love story, Bu Ara suddenly sobbed while hugging Mr. Thunder.

"I'm sorry, Dad. I'm so-so sorry!"

Mr. Thunder exhaled heavily. "I shouldn't have reminded you of that."

Meanwhile on the way.

"I have to go see mommy and

talk about Risa to him. Hopefully mommy can accept my decision," murmured Ayden who is now speeding towards his residence.

After a while, now Ayden's luxury car arrived in the front yard of his magnificent house. After parking the car, he immediately went inside.

"Where's mommy, Bi?" ayden asked as he passed one of his servants.

"There's in the television room, sir."

"Thank you," answered Ayden, who was now quickly stepping into the room.

And sure enough, it looks like the mommy is sitting relaxing while sipping a glass of sweet tea in front of the super-sized television.

The beautiful woman smiled when she saw Ayden coming closer to her.

"Dear Ayden, you're finally home, too" said the Mommy.

Ayden sat beside the woman then looked at her fixedly.

"Mom, I want to talk to Mommy about something and it's very important."

Mommy Tiya linked her two eyebrows in surprise. "Speak about what, Ay?"

"It's about Risa" Ayden replied firmly.
