Joanna would not blame Zenda for what had happened to the girl.
Precisely Joanna stared softly at the figure of her sleeping daughter with a pale face and occasionally, Zenda frowned.
Signs he's having nightmares.
"Mommy."
Slowly, Zenda's eyelids began to open.
Looking at the mother with a sad look. Feeling guilty for lying and violating the rules given by both parents.
"Mi .."
"It's okay. You just sleep again."
"Where are Jenan's Papi and Kak, Mi?"
Joanna's outstretched hand slipped Zenda's hair behind her ear. Gently rubbed Zenda's cheek.
"There's in the living room. Talking to someone."
Both of Zenda's eyebrows swooped, beginning to stare anxiously because Joanna's gaze was not as usual.
There was a disappointment that Joanna did not express.
Because Joanna had once done the same thing, disappointing Mr. Dery with her pregnancy at that time.
Joanna does not know if Zenda is pregnant or not.
"Where are you? You still have to rest, honey."
Zenda shook his head, "I'm going down. I'd like to see Jenan's sister."
Zenda's feelings became numb after he heard a faint voice that he recognized.
"From the beginning I wanted Zenda to be honest about our relationship, Om."
"No need to defend yourself after what you did to Zenda, asshole!"
Jenanda could not control his emotions to hear Rajendra's words were too relaxed.
"Jenan, hold your emotions. Papi doesn't like that you behave like this. Everything can be spoken of in a good way without hurting each other."
Jenanda still does not accept, seeing Rajendra's face does not show a guilty look.
Although almost the entire handsome face was covered by the scars of yesterday's blows, but from the look of his eyes, actually Rajendra regretted the actions he had done to Zenda, it's just that the Jenanda who was already angry did not realize that.
"I'm sorry but it's not entirely my fault either, Om Jean" Rajendra said.
Which made Jenanda's hands clenched over her thighs.
"Got once Big Brother said that."
Zendas.
Walking towards the sofa, assisted by the mother who holds both shoulders.
Zenda's body was still limp as Zenda forced her down. If Zenda had not been holding on to the iron handle of the stairs, perhaps Zenda's body could have fallen, rolling over from above.
"Sir Rajen forced me, Pi. She ... He harassed me, hks!"
Everyone is silent.
Hearing Zenda's sobs that began to sound until Joanna was asked to calm Zenda and bring the girl back to her room but Zenda refused.
Reason wants this problem to be solved quickly.
"I told Brother, give me some time to talk about our relationship to Papi and Mami ..."
"But instead Kak Rajen forced me to do that and Brother also threatened me!"
Joanna's gaze sharpened after hearing the word threat.
"Threatening what?"
Reminds Joanna of her former lover, Ethan. Which is somehow how it is now.
"The zenda?"
"That's it, Rajen ... He'll hit me until I refuse, Mi." he said.
Yesterday's incident made Zenda frightened especially when doing so, Rajendra did not want to bother being gentle and caring for his two ears as Zenda continued to complain of pain to him.
That was Zenda's first love.
"Fuck!"
Jenanda gets up from her seat and grabs Rajendra's shirt collar, which only resigned when Jenanda will hit her again.
But Jean soon brokered the fight. Pulling Jenanda's body away.
"The fire says enough, Jenanda! You didn't see Rajendra getting battered because of you yesterday?"
"Why does Papi keep defending him? Papi doesn't pity Zenda, Pi?"
Joanna was just speechless with a feeling of tightness in the chest.
Disappointed and sad mixed into one.
"Mommy too. Why just shut up?" snapped Jens.
Starting to feel annoyed at the attitude of his parents who could not be firm about the immoral actions committed by Rajendra to his sister, there was even a verbal threat made by the man.
"No need to yell at Mami!" sahut Zenda's.
To be honest, he couldn't stand the situation either.
"You're wrong too, Ze! We forbid you a lot of this and it's out there for your own good too!"
"Yes already! Brother just say, what should I do to stop blaming me like this?"
Zenda's voice tones vibrated.
Turned his face when he accidentally met Rajendra.
"Married ... You and Rajendra should get married."
Rajendra nodded in agreement with the decision.
From the beginning, it was Rajendra's main goal but Zenda always refused for many reasons, one of which was afraid of not getting the blessing of his parents.
About Zeze?
Rajendra did like the woman before Rajendra knew Zenda but since yesterday, Rajendra has not stopped thinking about her Beloved's condition.
He was sorry but at the same time relieved because the Zenda family finally knew their relationship.
A momentary lust makes Rajendra lose his mind until all that remains is a shadow of Zenda's painful face when Rajendra forces her to make love.
It's been bothering Rajendra all night.
Joanna and Jean looked at each other.
"We also agree. At least if Zenda gets pregnant, your relationship status is official."
"I don't want to."
Zenda's answer surprised everyone. Moreover, Jenanda who tried to control himself so as not to re-ignite emotions.
"What do you mean, Ze?"
"Sir Rajen forgot? About the words of Big Brother who wants to propose to Kak Zeze?"
"I'm sorry, but I read a message that Rajen sent to Kak Zeze the other day."
Rajendra's body stiffens as he hears that Zenda is secretly checking his phone.
"Not to be surprised. I also know that yesterday you met at the Cafe."
"Ze, I can explain that."
Zenda smiled wryly, realizing that her Beloved had started playing with fire behind her, "But stupidly again, I still begged Big Brother so that Brother Rajen would not leave me."
"It's important that Rajendra takes responsibility for you, Zenda. About Zeze, let Brother take care." between Jenanda, because the core of the problem lies with the youngest who now leaves the living room with a raging feeling.
"Let Mami persuade him. You guys just continue this conversation ..."
Joanna stared deeply at her husband, "No violence, remember?"
"Yes, Honey. Keep Zenda company until she's calm."
Joanna nodded.
"I hope you don't break your promise, Rajendra. Because the real man who is held is a promise and proof ... Don't make me change my mind and take legal action to solve this problem." threatened Joanna, before following Zenda to the room.
Jenanda frowned as Celia called.
"Yes, Cel?"
Decided to take the call without getting off the couch.
"Where areyou? There's a slight problem with the buyer of Elliptical Art realism paintings from Japan, Boss."
"I still have business. Can you handle that first?"
"Tsk! If I could handle it myself, I wouldn't call you, Jenan."
Jenanda nodded, as if Celia saw that.
"Fifteen minutes to go to the office."
"OK, okay! Please bring me some pizza. I'm hungry, hehehe."
"Yes already. I'm closing."
Finished with the call, Jenanda did not immediately move from her seat.
He sipped coffee on a table that was almost cold.
Office business is quite crucial if not handled quickly because it will also have an impact on the popularity of Jenanda's work in Sakura's country.
Given the prospective buyers referred to by Celia is one of the members of the Empire who is so fond of Jenanda's work since the last three years.
"You can leave if there's business to be done."
"No, Pi. Before he could persuade Zenda to agree to marry as soon as possible, I wouldn't leave."
Rajendra admires Jenanda's great concern for Zenda.
It is only fitting that the name Jenanda is often hailed by everyone, in addition to being talented, Jenanda also has a warm personality. The other side that is not shown to everyone except to his family.
"Sister Jenan don't worry. I'll make sure Zenda agrees to this wedding plan, I promise."
"It should! Before I drag you to the police station."
"Yes, Brother."
