Orion's Secret

Chapter 39

After delivering the pujaan girl to his house, the tall young man immediately slid into his parents' house. He wanted to find an opinion about the decision he made. Also asking for a solution will be how the next step gets Ify's heart back.

"Where are you Rio? Not working?" Haling closed the newspaper he had been reading, trying to shift his attention to one of his twins. Feeling now was only Rio who was close to him. Alvin has been too busy with his business and family abroad. So, all the attention he would give to Rio.

"I want to talk to Dad. Mother where?"

"The meaning of home does not know who. Didn't tell me where it was."

"Would you like a drink?" haling continued to offer, while Rio's answer was just to shake his head slowly.

"So I took Ify to the top. I brought him back to kayak first." said Rio directly at the core of the problem. Makes Haling listen.

"But Ify doesn't want to. I'm confused to have to convince Ify to use the other way."

"I know maybe Ify still can't accept the events that used to be. Maybe he's afraid it's all over again."

"I've changed, Dad, but he doesn't believe me. He said he couldn't go back to me."

Haling saw a look of despair on his son's face. Sighing in a long breath, he patted Rio's shoulder slowly.

"If you believe you have changed and can make Ify happy, you must be patient. He needs time to heal his wounds. Only a few months later, she was abandoned by her husband and son. And I think, Ify also doubted the existence of Adam's son in his cage."

"See, Ify didn't tell me why he rejected me. If it's a child's problem, I don't mind whose child it is. I'll assume it's my own son."

"Dad knows you've changed a lot Rio. I know you're not the Rio you used to be. So, you have to be patient and keep looking for ways to convince Ify that you can make him happy."

The young man in front of him nodded slowly. He looked at Haling with a doubtful look, like he wanted to say something but was restrained.

Apparently Haling can read the look on his son's face.

"What's? You want to talk more?" Haling said as he took off his perched glasses earlier.

"Shilla is dead."

Silent.

There was no sound other than Haling's chirping bird hanging in the cage in the yard.

"Why can? You know where it came from? Hasn't it been that you haven't had any relationship with Shilla?"

"I know from Gabriel. Yesterday he met Ify to apologize to Shilla. And, I took Ify to Shilla's grave. He's been sick all this time."

"Maybe it's karma."

Rio splashed his mouth to hear Haling's words that felt so light. I feel right about what his father said.

Instantly he felt fear and shudder himself, fearing that he would be approached by Karma for betraying Ify first. Wouldn't the bad guy get his payoff soon? Whether it's sooner or later.

Not much different from Rio, the girl in the guest room was also talking to the father to find a way out at Rio's request last night.

"Why did you refuse?" said softly, Umari stroked the child's only black hair. He feels sorry if when his daughter is pregnant even a lot of thoughts to make her stress is not helped. Containing children without the husband is the weakness of Ify. And he could not bear to see Ify who was crying continuously.

"Ify was afraid Rio would do the same thing as before."

"Isn't Rio changed? She's grown up Fy. Your age is now very mature. Rio has now successfully become a leader, isn't that a sign that he's not as bad as he used to be?"

"Ify was afraid." let go of his embrace with his father, Ify looked at his feet which he had piled on the table. Slightly swollen due to his limited movement, he was not as active as he used to be when pregnant with the first child.

"What are you afraid of?"

The words made Umari take a long breath. There was nothing wrong with the child's thinking, just that he was sure that Rio had changed a lot and if Rio asked, hadn't the young man already thought about all the consequences?

But he was not easy to believe anymore, he used to trust Rio very much. But in reality, the young man even hurt his son. But if not the Haling family, who else will take care of his son when he has gone home?

He was very old, constantly in pain. She is afraid to go home before Ify gets a kind husband to accept what he is.

"Convince your heart Al. I know you still have doubts about everything that's happened. If Rio really wants you, he'll want to wait just as you're ready to accept him."

"I'll give you the decision after my son is born."

"That's better."

The sun has returned its complaints, and now lives the Moon who must carry out its duties.

All the hearts of men, only Orion knows. The good and bad of man, no one can guess.

Liana returned home with a stagger. His head was very sick from the rain this afternoon while delivering food to his customer's house.

His body is very sensitive to rain water, really can not hold the goods just for a moment not to let out his snot in the nose.

"God! You sick?"

Liana tiptoed in shock at the thunderous sound inside the house. His eyes caught the silhouette of Rio walking towards him.

"Hehe, I was rained on earlier Brother. It hurts my head." complained the girl. He rubbed his head slowly, feeling very dizzy.

Without warning, Rio directly carried the girl towards his room. There was no rejection from Liana as well, to make Rio freely move. He immediately poured Liana's body on the bed, seeing Liana's closed eyes made Rio frown.

"You sleeping?" he asked while shaking the girl's body.

"I slept, Brother, so dizzy." Liana said softly with eyes still closed. Making Rio's hand lift up and gently caressing the girl's head.

"Yes, you rest. Don't work tomorrow, let's go to your cafe."

Rio slowly kissed Liana's forehead, then enveloped the girl's body to the chest. After that, he left Liana with a dim room. Letting the girl rest to get better.

The young man took the initiative to buy Liana a food and also medicine so that her health quickly recovered.

In the room, the girl opened her eyes wide. His hand felt his chest rumble due to the warm kiss that the foster brother gave him.

"Why am I ticking? What the hell!" the complaints don't like it. He could not feel it more for his brother.

He felt that Rio had been too kind to him, it was impolite to put his heart on the young man. But isn't love looking at whom? No one asked for love to grow so much.

"Gue has to control my taste."

"Gue doesn't want to hurt Rio."

"Gue was sure, Brother Rio must have had a wife."

Monologuing with a pounding heart, Liana tried to close her eyes repeatedly until it felt very painful.

"Damn! Because of Rio's sister!"

As a result of the kiss, he felt dizzy in his head was lost to perish somewhere. There is only a heartbeat that is increasingly blissful. He was speechless, so he had to neutralize his heartbeat by sighing long. He closed his eyes and prepared to fall asleep.

SERIATE...
