Allow Me

"Speak Ma'am," said Ayumna who is quite sensitive to Manika's current position. Ayumna clasped Manika's hand, trying to give support to the girl who was not far from her age.

Manika smiles at the beautiful woman she knows as her sister Bryan. Then look at the focus ahead. Where are Arya, Dirga and Bryan.

"Doesn't a marriage have to be based on love and compassion? And also must be accompanied by mutual understanding of each other? In order not to have a fuss in the household. Do not forget also needed mutual trust in the couple, to strengthen the heresy of a household?" manika asked paused her question.

And the words spoken by Manika were almost all true. However, there are some words that are slightly wrong.

"While we don't love each other, Om," Manika added in a quivering voice.

"Love isn't always needed in a household, honey. We love each other enough" Bryan said.

To be honest Bryan did not believe in love anymore, after the incident four years ago. For her, she loves Manika and her daughter Cloe.

"How come we have affection, if we are two strangers who just met a few days ago, Mas. Please remember that." said Manika could no longer hold back her tears that flowed on her smooth cheeks.

"We can do it slowly" Bryan replied.

"You don't know me, Mom. You don't know what my background looks like and what my previous life was like. You don't know all that, Mom!" peekik Manika could not bear the turmoil that stifled her chest. They don't know what my life is like, Manika.

Always bullied while still in school, just because his dad is often seen taking other women out. And often gets terror from his own friends, because it is considered to snatch lovers from his other friends, just because he is more beautiful than them.

It's all self-serving manika. He did not dare to tell his mother or grandmother. Manika is afraid that they will be angry or sad just because of problems that she considers trivial. However, it was also too imprinted in his memories.

Plus the betrayal from her lover, who did nananina with her own best friend, just because Manika did not want to be invited to do that by her lover.

"And from that, let me into your life. Let me know you better. Allow me to know your past. Because I'm the same. I also have a past that you can never imagine. I also have a background you don't know about." Bryan said steadily, then stepped closer towards Manika.

And without Manika's previous prediction, Bryan now rests with one knee taped to the floor. "Then let me get to know you more deeply, dear." continued Bryan looking at Manika with a pleading gaze, as his hand gently held Manika's palm. Then kiss it with full tenderness.

Manika's heart trembled a little to see Bryan acting like that. But Manika will not change her decision at this time. He was too traumatized by the marriage of his parents which was also very harmonious at first. However, as time went on, their love also changed.

"I'm sorry, I can't" Manika said, then removing Bryan's hand from her hand.

After saying that, Manika chose to take her daughter who was sleeping with Ghani, and then decided to leave the Natakusuma residence.

"You have to try harder, Boy." suggested Dirga as he patted Bryan's shoulder gently.

"And you must make every effort to make your daughter a sister, as soon as possible." And this whisper comes from her brother-in-law who has no morals.
