Dinner as usual. Maybe it's just breakfast and dinner that this family gets together. But something was different, Nadila was not present today.
Being an MC of a child's birthday event is the reason. A family of entrepreneurs who own a small company. Can I hire Nadila? I don't know, but today coincides with February 14th.
Nobody knows anything, everyone eats quietly. Only the sound of spoons and forks clashing with ceramic plates could be heard.
Until Raka who just ate the dessert just started the conversation."Fujiko, how was your first day?" she smiled, but was really worried. His eyes slightly glanced towards Pramana who was still eating quietly.
"Sir Raka, can you teach me English?" ask her with teary eyes.
"He cannot deal with strangers. Teach him well!" firmly Pramana, drinking water then rose to walk towards the second floor.
"Yes!" batin Raka, has a reason to linger one room with his wife.
But his lips said another."You're a trouble."
"Indeed," Fujiko grumbled.
No one was suspicious at all with Pramana's attitude. The grandfather who could only sigh violently. Really knows the brain of his grandson. But at least Raka won't leave the house again. Stay under his watch.
What's on his mind? I don't know, the past mistakes of his late first wife that he still remembers today. Makes her really not want to see her first child. Though slowly his heart was broken by his grandson and son-in-law.
Sometimes the relationship of daughter-in-law and mother-in-law is not good to be the cause. Pramana's first wife killed her own mother-in-law in the presence of five-year-old Patra. The boy whose year wept alone, did not honestly say everything to Pramana.
Death he suspected for falling down the stairs. One week later, five-year-old Patra told the truth, telling the cause of death of her grandmother was her mother.
Pramana's first wife ended up in prison and committed suicide afterwards. While Patra stayed behind and followed him, he was so sick of seeing that face, one that resembled his first wife. Until the face was passed down to Patra Raka.
He was held in a grudge to plan the kidnapping of his own grandson. But slowly his heart melted, with every second of sincere attention from his grandson. The pain was only left to Patra. He really loves Raka. The affection that turned into protective, to let Nadila into his family. Knowing the cause of Raka's departure is Immanuel. Raka wants Immanuel to be the leader of the company, it will not be left to him.
Weirdo? Sacrificing the other grandchild for the other grandchildren? He didn't sacrifice Immanuel, just talked about it. Letting Nadila act alone. The grandfather who was just watching his grandson's path.
Really strange personality, isn't it? Unhealthy obsessive feeling, wanting to control Raka's life even in the way of compulsion. Then why would Fujiko just leave it alone? Because Fujiko is not a threat to Raka's life. Controlling Raka like a puppet, his perfect grandson would become the leader of his company. Stay here with him like he used to.

It's getting dark that two people are learning English."Memorize his words. From today five words a day!" firmly Raka who was lying on the bed hugged Fujiko. Neither wore a single thread, only a thick blanket overlaid their bodies.
"Five words?" asked Fujiko to loosen her head.
"Yes five words, like a pencil. At every meeting with foreign nationals I will also take you," he replied smiling.
"You taught me an hour, but only memorized five words." The woman slit her eyes.
"Learning English needs to be slow. Besides, I also have to irrigate my land to keep it fertile." A simple answer from Raka.
"Well, by the way, have Imanuel and your father been found?" fujiko asked, hugging her husband's body tightly, remembering the wedding date is less than two weeks away.
"Father's last trace is in a remote area. But I've returned to this town. You may not have been caught. If it hasn't been hard to see me," Raka let out a rough sigh.
Two people who were both sighing harshly."Tomorrow afternoon I'll be home late. There's an appointment with the hostess owner. You want us to stay there. Or stay here later?"
"I want to go back to living there." Fujiko chuckles."What if after everything is done we stay there. Raising our children into an ordinary family that need not fear being kidnapped?" ask Fujiko expectantly.
"Then your job and mine?" Raka knitted her forehead.
"You can work at home, only occasionally attend meetings or meetings right? I'll probably keep working full time until the afternoon. I beg..." Fujiko, inexplicably, does not want their son to grow up in a conglomerate family. It feels uncomfortable and full of prestige. Imagine her son growing up in a regular family wearing uniforms and shoes that are not so expensive.
Just an ordinary family...
"Towards you, but I want more." Raka smiled, tightened his arms, kissed his wife's collarbone. Really sister brother who collected kebo.
That's what happened before today. The day that Immanuel was found.
Back at the four people who sighed them many times.
"I don't want to go back. At least not for now. I fucked Nadila, though. Even though there were no children she would still force to get married if I were to be seen. It's possible to find a way to kill me again." The answer from Immanuel.
"Are you sure you fucked Nadila?" one question from Raka.
"Why?" immanuel did not understand the words of his cousin.
"No, I just feel like he's weird. Not the per*ngsang drug mixed in my drink. But sleeping pills. Try to remember that night what happened?" Raka asked back.
Immanuel swallowed his own saliva, slightly glancing towards mama. It's nothing papa is just afraid mama is jealous when papa tells her mama's past.
But unfortunately, my mom just knitted her forehead. Not a typical childish woman fixated on the past. After all, he also slept with Rian even had an Elie.
"That night I had a drink with him. Just a glass. But my body is hot, the effects of drunk are unusual. After that I undressed, tried to kiss her forcibly even though she was in a fight. Last thing I remember, I tore his clothes off. After that I remember nothing." Immanuel.
A strange prejudice, Raka let out a rude sigh."She's rebelling?" ask again.
Imanuel nodded."During our courtship, we never kissed intensely. Just a kiss, at first I didn't really care because I was just learning to like it. But since you brought it up I just felt weird, too,"
"You told me you were the first one to fuck her, right?" ask Raka again.
Imanuel nodded."I'm sure because when she cried, and went to the bathroom there was a red stain on the bed sheet. Why?"
"It's okay," Raka let out a rude sigh. It makes more sense that Immanuel impregnated Nadila. But why go that far but don't want to be touched?
"Now the most important thing about your marriage! Your problem! So you're handling it yourself." Fujiko stared resentfully at Immanuel, a young man who was also at a loss on how to solve his problem. No matter how Nadila is a public figure, all her words will be more reliable.
Maybe sooner or later Reina and Elie will also be involved. Once the woman spoke to the media about the affair. What's he supposed to do?
"Did Nadila have a lover? Secret girlfriend for example as in FTV which tells about a devious woman and her affair. Cheating on her husband to drain her wealth. Then they ended up dead because they were struck by lightning, his body was hit by a rolling gas cylinder, his grave there were many snakes, then the fall of a meteor!?" High-level fantasies of Immanuel, wanting to turn things around if Nadila had another lover. Making mama hit papa's head.
"Ftv victims!" his lips.
