Hour 07.00. Ara finished preparing.
She wore a high-collared knit sweater to cover her neck full of red marks, her slightly wet hair allowed to unravel. Sebagain is out in front. He immediately descended in a hurry and headed for the dining room.In can only Nesa, Maya and Levina who were at the dining table. There's no Rafa there. His heart was a little relieved. Because he will not face the anger of his brother-in-law because he was late waking up and coming to the dining table.
Ara hesitated to sit down, as there was no seat for her. The seat was in Levina.
"Good morning ma'am, sister Nesa, sister Levina" said he kindly and kindly.
Sam immediately placed a chair for her near Levina."Please young lady," said Sam politely.
Ara smiled, this butler has always been her protector in this house.
"Thank you, Sam." Ara sat down immediately.
Levina looked at it with her tail. Maya also looked at him cynically.
Sam put the toast on Ara's plate and a glass of milk. He knew his young miss would not dare to take food after last night's incident. Plus Maya looks at him dislike.
"Thank you, Sam." said Ara again.
"Same young lady, please eat."
Ara started to enjoy her food slowly. Not long after that Rafa arrived.
Immediately Maya and Levina's bodies stiffened.
Their faces changed. The appetite is gone.
Rafa immediately sat down on his seat.
Glancing at the glance at Ara who was eating lowered her head to enjoy her toast without seeing her arrival. Usually this young lady greeted him good morning. But not this time. Rafa watched Ara's clothes, as well as her wet hair, puffy and narrowed eyes visible from behind her glasses. Also his lips that looked swollen because it continued on his pulverization last night.
Sam immediately prepared his master's meal.
Maya and Levina looked at each other at Rafa's usual expression.
"Rafa.." call Maya slowly to guess her mood.
Hm? Rafa looked at Maya.
"Eat first ma, finish breakfast. I want to eat too" he said.
"Let's eat Levina" he said to Levina with a smile.
Levina smiled wryly, she turned to Maya. What's the matter? Didn't Ara complain about their actions? Rafa looks relaxed and ordinary.
Maya beckons him to shut up and continue eating. Maya has been able to confirm that Ara will not complain to Rafa. Because he knew Ara didn't like any commotion and quarrel between herself and Rafa.
Nesa looked at them while shaking her head. Then he looked at Ara.
"M....!" call slowly.
Ara raised her head looking at her eldest brother-in-law."Yes brother...."
"About 4am I went to your room, but you weren't there" Nesa said.
Ara flinched for a moment. He's drunk. Confused to answer what? Does he have to be honest and say that last night forced Rafa to sleep in his room? Does she also have to say what Rafa did to her under the shower and on the bed? his inner.
He started squeezing both of his hands over his thighs, growing increasingly unsettled. Even scared.
Rafa's watching.
"I-I was in....."
"Why is Nesa looking for him?" sela Rafa cuts off Ara's remarks before the woman says what happened last night. Because he knew Ara was an honest man, afraid to lie. But even if Ara was going to say about last night, Rafa didn't matter. He just didn't want Maya and Levina to humiliate Ara.
"Sorry Miss Nesa, the young lady is at the grave of the young master. I accompanied him there." Vishnu interrupted from behind his master.
"Make back the model of the clothes you gave the twins. Cia had already eliminated it" Nesa said without answering Rafa and Vishnu's questions.
"Ba-good brother," Ara replied still nervously.
"Why are you wearing clothes like this? Aren't you hot?" tanya Maya watched the clothes she was wearing.
Ara raised her face then looked at her mother-in-law.
"I-I'm not feeling well, ma." she said nervously.
"Not feeling well, but why are you showering?"
"A-anu ma...." Ara swallowed her saliva.
"I feel so good after the shower. I took too long to soak in the bathtub until it was cold." lowered my head.
"But you can use warm water to ...!" maya's speech was interrupted.
Rafa stomps his tablespoon firmly on the plate until it sounds loud. They startled him and looked at him. Except Ara who kept her head down despite being shocked.
"I want to tell you something. Something very happy." Rafa looked at them one by one.
All eyes were staring at him including Ara.
"Mah...." Rafa looked at Maya.
"I'll get married ....!" continued back.
Huh huh?
"Married?" Maya surprised. He turned to look at Levina who looked panicked and was also shocked at her seat.
"You don't joke Rafa" Maya said, not believing her second child's words.
"I'm serious ma. I'll get married as soon as I want. Marrying the woman I love, gives me comfort and happiness." glancing at Ara who was staring at her dinner plate.
Levina looked at Rafa's face looking at Ara. His heart grew increasingly agitated and unsettled.
The feeling is not good, why did Rafa look at Ara when she said she wanted to get married?
"I hope you're blessing my marriage" said Rafa, then turned to Levina
"You want to marry Levina too?" ask her while smiling.
Levina flinched between believing and not hearing Rafa's question. He immediately smiled and quickly nodded. He didn't expect Rafa to tell him that.
"Of course, I want Rafa." His heart soared happily.
Maya's face also looks very happy to hear Rafa's words to Levina.
"If you want to get married, I'll get ready soon. The wedding will be held today. Later I will tell the time and place." said Rafa smilingly looking at Levina and Maya's faces alternately. The face looks so happy.
"Congratulations Levina. Aunty congratulate you, you will finally get married too" Maya said smiling happily. He got up from his seat, approached Levina and hugged her.
"Thank you aunt, I'm so happy too." they hugged each other.
"Thank you baby, I'm so happy." Levina touched Rafa's soft hand.
"Ma, for my wedding I want to hold in simple terms, just enough of our relatives come. Regarding the recipe I will hold it later." looked at his mother without regard to speech and immediately pulled his hand from the touch of Levina's hand.
"No matter what son, it's important that you get married first. The celebration will be just lately, huh Levina? Mama's so happy" Maya said, not stopping smiling.
"You are the most perfect couple. Only Levina is the woman who suits you best. She's beautiful, elegant, has a good career, on par with us. And the important thing is not low women." said Maya glanced with a tail of eyes at Ara.
Ara gulped her bitter saliva hearing the humiliation she knew was directed at her.
"Yes, the show will be later ..!" answer Levina quickly. No reception was not a problem, which was important for her to quickly become the mistress of Ravendro Artawijaya. Being the only son-in-law in this house. Because Revan and Raka have died. She's so happy, what was the dream last night? Like getting a durian crumbling down, it's unexpected.
Though he was very frightened to think about the anger he would receive from Rafa due to the incident last night. He thought this morning would be the worst day for you. But apparently, Rafa even asked her to get married.
Rafa smiled sinisterly looking towards the two of them. Had Ara not been in this room, she would have made the calculations and given the punishment of these two women.
Rafa glanced at Ara who also happened to be staring at him and also at Levina in turn.
"Sister-in-law, sister Levina. May the marriage be smooth without any obstacles. I'm happy and happy too. May your household be sakina mawadah warahmah forever" he said with a sincere smile.
Rafa did not reply, just kept looking at him.
Levina looked towards him.
"Thank Ara. I really wish you could come to my wedding. You are my first and special invited guest." a sweet smile full of falsehoods.
"Surely my brother will come. Thank you for the invitation." said Ara still smiling.
Rafa continued to pay attention to him, then rose to his feet staring at Nesa.
"Sir Nesa, I hope you can come to my wedding. In addition to my mother's blessing, I also really need my brother's blessing" he said hopefully for his sister to come.
Nesa did not answer, only took a breath and threw it away slowly, then resumed eating.
Rafa immediately got out of his chair and went up in Vishnu.
"Have you contacted that guy?" tanyakanya.
"Already sir. He's coming. Florencia will pick him up and bring him here!"
"Tell Florencia to come on time. I don't want any trouble in my marriage. And give whatever the man wants."
"Okay sir." replied Vishnu aloud.
They continued their steps.
"Dear Missa, don't you want to congratulate Levina? Soon she'll be your sister-in-law" Maya tells Nesa.
Levina also looked at him with a happy feeling."Sister Levina must have come ma, it's her sister's wedding."
Nesa just smiled. Then stand up immediately. "I went to work first ma" he said.
"Yes, son, don't forget to take your time for your sister's wedding today" Maya said.
Nesa immediately left the place.
Ara also got up
"I'm also saying good." he said slowly.
Maya did not answer.
Ara immediately stepped towards the stairs. He wanted to pray dhuha for a while before going to campus, because it did not have time for dawn. All of you want to take a bag that he did not have time to bring because he rushed down for breakfast.
"I hope she's gone forever from this house" Maya said staring sinisterly at her disappearance.
"Levina, auntie wishes you a quick pregnancy and gives a cute granddaughter to aunty" Maya said.
Levina chokes, shocked. Then he smiled shyly and misbehaved.
"Yes aunty, definitely! I will realize my aunt's wish after marrying Rafa!" he said touching his stomach.
"But aunt, why did Rafa suddenly invite marriage to arrive like this ?Rafa was supposed to propose to me first and we got engaged" she said, again surprised by Rafa's invitation to arrive.
"Tante would rather you get married. If you still want to get engaged, aunty is worried that it will actually delay the length of your marriage. We won't know in the future how. You yourself know, Rafa's heart is always changing erratically. He also always went abroad busy with his work. You can't even get married forever" Maya said
"Auntie was right too. I've been waiting for this beautiful moment for years. I don't want to put it off anymore" Levina said with sparkling eyes. Maya smiles. The two embrace each other happily.
Levina soon shared the news of her marriage on some of her sosmed accounts, also showing off in some of her groups with pride.
๐ธโ๏ธ
Rafa enters the workspace. He's headed for the bathroom. His eyes noticed a few strands of clothes lying on the floor, just below the shower. Her clothes and Ara's nightgown were forced off last night.
He slowly picked up Ara's clothes, and hung them on a hanger. Then get out. At the door he met Sam who had just come from Ara's room.
"Sir.." said Sam, bowing his head.
"Sir where's Sam from ?"
"I'm from the young lady's room, sir."
"Why him? Did something happen?" feel worried right away.
"Miss just isn't feeling well. Miss flu and her body's ange. I went there to tell her that the lady's subscription motorcycle is already in front."
"Ara is sick ?" Rafa's getting anxious. He immediately stepped towards Ara's room. Sam followed from behind.
"Master, young lady is now praying dhuha. Because when I got there, she was ready" Sam said.
Rafa slowed his pace.
Last night she did hold Ara's body under the shower. He deserves the flu and a fever.
Akhhh
Rafa cursed his stupidity.
"Has she been taking medicine ?"
"Not yet sir. I told you to take medicine. Miss said she'd drink it."
"Sir Sam come back down, I'll see Ara."
"Good sir." Sam immediately turned around and stepped down.
Rafa picks up the phone in his pocket, looking for Rizal's contact number
"Hello boss?" voice from across.
"Come to the main house, Ara is sick. I need you to check on me."
"Ara's sick ? okay boss, I'll be there soon." replied Rizal. Phone connection disconnected.
Rafa again set foot into Ara's room. He knocked on the door.
Ara had just finished praying. He immediately stood up to hear a knock and approached the door, then opened it.
"Sister-in-law?" surprised to see Rafa at the door.What's the matter brother here ?" surprised to see Rafa at the door.
Rafa went straight in, closed the door and pulled Ara's hand inside.
"You want your brother here." Ara drunkenness.
"Sister, don't come into my room. Not good at seeing people." Ara was worried, remembering that Levina and her mother-in-law were talking about marriage.
"You sick ?" Rafa placed his hand on Ara's forehead, warm in feeling. Under his eyes were dark, his face slightly pale.
"I just have the flu, I'll take medicine later. Now brother out yeah ..I beg you." pinta Ara. Pull Rafa's hand to the door. But Rafa held both of his hands.
"You don't have to go anywhere today, just at home don't have to go to college."
"No, I have an Arabic and Japanese course this afternoon. After that I will visit my parents' house! I ask permission from my brother now. I wasn't there long, it was just that the journey took a long time! Oh yeah ? what time is Levina's sister's wedding? So I can estimate my return. I promised Levina to come to your wedding" said Ara.
"Ara, are you okay?" Rafa ignored Ara's words. He looked at Ara's face. Given the events that occurred last night must make the condition of Ara's body not fit.
Ara pulled her hand from Rafa's grip.
"I'll be fine if you get out of my room. Now get out before anyone knows where you are here. Please come out, don't talk anymore." ask Ara to be clear. He was very worried that Levina and Maya would find out that Rafa was here. Dirty accusations will be brought against him.
"What are you afraid of, right? I don't want to leave you. You're not well." Rafa held his hand again.
Ara did not answer, she pulled her hand back."Brother still asking that? come out, please. I'm afraid if my mom finds out that she's here. Just two with me!" he said he was getting upset because Rafa did not want to understand as well and was stubborn.
"I don't want to get out of here."
Ara snorted in annoyance, she took off her face, fixed her clothes and hair, then took her Sling bag.
"You can't go to college like this. You're not well Ara!" Rafa pulled his hand and hugged.
"So, don't be like this." Ara was startled, trying to let go of Rafa's embrace. He's getting scared."We can't be like this. We're sisters-in-law."
Rafa hugged her even more."I won't let go of you" she said, then kissed Ara's cheeks and shoulders.
Ara surprised. With full force he pushed Rafa's body strong to the ground."Please don't do that again. Don't touch me. Big brother doesn't deserve to do that." he jolted a little hard.
Rafa's surprised. Ara immediately realized her abusive treatment.
"Ma sorry brother, I don't mean to be rude, I just want brother Don't touch me again. Brother is getting married, I'm afraid that Levina's sister will see us always close, even if we're just brother and sister. He'll think badly of us. I'm so scared we're close like this. Please understand." said Ara nervously.
He's headed for the door.
"I'll go out first, after that brother." Ara pull the door handle.
But Rafa quickly pulled his body and closed the door back.
"You're avoiding me ?" he stared hard.
Ara silently did not answer, she began to be afraid to see the glare of Rafa's eyes. He immediately lowered his head, squeezing both hands suppressing his fear.
Rafa immediately hugged him. He knew that Ara was scared right now.
Ara was shocked and thrashed.
"What did sister do? take off brother, don't be like this." let go of Rafa's hand that hugged his body.
"Sister doesn't deserve to do this to me. Her husband-to-be sister Levina. Don't be like this! Don't you think what you're doing is going to hurt Levina? please release....!"
"I'm worried about you, Ara, you're not doing well. Look at you ..." Rafa pulled her body into the mirror, then sagged her collar.
"What if your friend's friend sees this ?" he pointed at the red markings and a small bite on his neck.
Ara gulped her saliva while sighing sadly. He's back fixing his collar.
"I begged and cried to my sister not to touch me, but she did! I asked for another punishment but brother kept attacking me. Almost my entire body is filled with this mark! I'm so embarrassed to see it. I'm also afraid that if anyone finds out what happened to us last night, I'm afraid that if anyone sees our closeness to that body. "its speech is cut off, the breath is hunting fast. His eyes glazed over considering what Rafa did last night to him."I'm so scared.hiks, hiks,hiks."
"Ara. I forced you. I can't help myself. I was wrong." Rafa held his face. He felt very guilty seeing the sadness and fear on this girl's face.
Ara started sobbing.
"I beg no one to know what happened between us last night. Please make sure of that! I was so scared when Mom found out. Mama would definitely call me a cheap woman," sobbing.
"I just want to live quietly in this house, without any anger and resentment from my mother! I want my mother to accept me as her daughter-in-law just as she is so happy and happy to accept Levina's sister as daughter-in-law and wife. Ever since I got married and lived in this house, my mom has never liked me. Mama never accepted me as her daughter-in-law and also sister Raka's wife. Even though Raka's brother is gone in this world, my mother still hates me." her tears fell many tears on both cheeks.
"I would love to get out of this house, because I am also no longer entitled to live here because there is no more Raka. I wanted to leave this house rather than create hatred and anger in my mother's heart. But I can't afford to part with Raka's grave. I can't afford to part from him! I'm afraid that if I get out of this house, I won't be able to see the food again, I'm afraid that mom won't let me in to visit my husband's grave anymore." sobbing sob, sobbing sob, squeezing his watery nose because of the flu.
Rafa was puffed out, his heart ached hearing that. He melted Ara's tears and snot without disgust. This woman had the flu and it worried her.
"M....!" hugging Ara's body, a single tear drop fell on her cheek.
"Patience a few more hours, be patient! I'll make sure your mom accepts you in this house. If mama can't accept you as Raka's wife, then mama should be willing to accept you as my wife. Trust me, I'll make sure she accepts you as my wife and considers you the daughter-in-law of this house. Be patient for a few more hours." her mind gently caressed Ara's hair.
Rafa actually wanted to punish her mother, because she was also very sick of seeing her mother's bad attitude and behavior on Ara. But Ara always got in her way. Ara has always protected and sided with her mother. Ara's tears always made her heart melt, her emotions subsided. Because Ara didn't like to see her fuss and fight with her mother.
But for this time, he could no longer tolerate the bad attitude of his mother. Moreover, her mother always compared Ara to Levina, denigrating and degrading Ara to Levina.
Ara releases Rafa's embrace.
"I'll come out first, after that big brother" he said, wiping away his tears. He took off Rafa's hand.
"Ara.." call her slow.
"Don't talk anymore brother, I beg you." Ara did not care about it directly opened the door.
"Do you remember my wish paper on your birthday?"
Ara's steps came to a halt, she turned around.
"I want you to fulfill my request paper at my wedding! You promised you would fulfill it. Just as I have fulfilled your request."
Ara sighed sadly, then nodded her head.
"So don't worry, I will definitely fulfill it, I promised I would fulfill it first" Ara said without suspicion.
Rafa smiled.
"I hope you keep it later!"
Ara immediately turned around and pulled the door handle.
Looking outwards for a moment, after feeling that there was no one, he immediately stepped up after closing the door.
Rafa steps towards the small table where photos of Ara and Raka are displayed. He grabbed the small rectangular object and touched Raka's face slowly.
"Sister will also immediately fulfill the contents of your request paper. Marry someone you love! Brother ask for your permission and support. Brother hopes you'll bless brother's goodwill to marry Ara" he said with a smile.
Fill in Raka request paper :
Sis, I don't want to be like mama who always forces you to get married. But I hope this year you will soon marry the woman you love, which makes you comfortable and happy. Whoever he is, I always support brother.
