Old Man's Bed
#24: Away
Ardhan, the man is staring at Berlin. Then, turn his face away. Who, sure enough, now he loves Kenzia, has been in a relationship with her.
"That..." Berlin was sobbing, his chest tight. Without saying anything Ardhan left her. Is his love really gone? he brushed off all this stupid truth.
Ardhan pressed the Kenzia Apartment button. He walked in and looked around the dark room. Put his feet up. In the late hours like this, Kenzia must have been sleeping.
He opened the door of his room, faintly listening to someone cry. Closer to the bed, a person was seen wrapping his body with his blanket.
"Dw..."
Kenzia stopped her crying, she thought it was a hallucination. Ardhan could not have come here, because now there is Berlin accompanying him. He closed both his ears.
"Zijah.."
Only then did he realize that Ardhan was nearby by touching him.
Kenzia pulled out her blanket and looked at the man in front of her. "We'll just end this relationship, Dad."
Ardhan held back the heat radiating in his veins. He came here, not wanting to discuss farewell. Instead, he wanted to calm himself. "I came here, don't want to discuss anything."
"Dad, I don't want to hurt Berlin" he said. Let her pregnancy be her secret. He chose to go and give up. Not because he was afraid, but the basis of this relationship was wrong.
"Is that enough?!"
Kenzia.
"Is Berlin threatening you?" ask Ardhan.
Kenzia.
"Then, don't ever talk about this again."
Ardhan circled around his bed, he uncovered the thick white blanket, laid down his body, turned his back on Kenzia.
Kenzia stopped her crying, lying on Ardhan's back.
Both are silent, Ardhan. The man had not been able to close his eyes, the same as Kenzia. There are many things both think.
"Dw...."
He approached and hugged Kenzia from behind. He kissed Kenzia's head.
"I know, you haven't slept. Go to sleep, don't think of anything."
Kenzia closed her eyes, and the warmth and comfort made her eyes feel heavy.
How can Kenzia not leave me? I hope Kenzia gets pregnant soon, with her pregnancy she won't leave me inner Ardhan.
Morning had greeted, sunlight slipped in between the curtains. As usual, Kenzia will prepare breakfast. He stroked his stomach, today he intends to check the truth. Is she pregnant or not? but she believes she is pregnant.
If she was pregnant, she would tell her parents. All together he hides a secret, someday it will be revealed.
He had prepared himself, both his parents were definitely disappointed. With the help of his parents, he was convinced. Ardhan won't find it.
"I'm sorry, Dad, Mom, I let you down."
Kenzia put an apron on the wall near the corner. He will wake Ardhan, because the time refers to breakfast time.
"Dad..."
Zia patted Ardhan's cheek gently. "Dad, wakeup. It's time for breakfast." Kenzia felt her skin feel hot. He held onto Ardhan's forehead and it did feel hot.
"Astenghah! I don't know if Daddy has a fever."
Emm
Ardhan opened his eyes, he smiled. Pulling Kenzia's hand, he hit her chest and hugged her tightly.
"Dad, you have a fever? why didn't you tell me?" ask Kenzia. He pleaded with her to be let go to bring him some heat-lowering medicine.
"I'm fine, Zi.. It's just plain hot" Ardhan smiled. Today, Kenzia is back again to be his Zi.
"Zi, you're close to Daddy, but why does Daddy feel you're far away?"
I'm sorry, Dad. Because I intend to stay away from you.
