Reaching Love
63
Frans' slow but very heart-piercing speech made Cecil stunned. It turned out that this one brother was very different from the oldest brother. Although Dolly was whining and joking often, she never uttered such hurtful words.
"Sorry! I have never been married, but I know ethics. A husband is a dress for his wife, and vice versa. The wife is the husband's dress. If you fight or say strong in front of others, it is the same as opening those clothes in front of a crowd. I'm sorry, if I know and patronize!" rio said long and wide.
Every word that was spoken from Rio's lips, made Cecil even more amazed at the cold handsome man.
Hearing there was a commotion behind, Dolly and her parents came to the room.
"What's this about? You guys are making a fuss in front of a little kid, it's really embarrassing!" said Mr. Edward as soon as he arrived in the back room.
All those in the room just looked down in fear, except for Rahma who was busy calming baby Ara. The toddler did not want to stop crying, even though Rahma had tried.
"Rahma, give your son with his nanny. All of you here go with Papa!" mr. Edward's orders.
Everyone followed Edward's steps into the living room, where Dolly, Cecil and Rio were chatting.
"Now tell me everything from the beginning. Why are you guys making a fuss?" tell Mr. Edward after everyone sits around the table.
Flowing the story of Frans who steals hear the conversation between Rio, Cecil and Dolly. He also said he was surprised to find that the person who made it difficult for Rio to move on was his wife. Frans asks if they had a relationship before Frans married Rahma.
About Ara who screamed and cried Frans told me. If Rahma daydreams that she snapped at Rahma to wake up from her daydream.
Based on Frans' story, Edward asked Rahma.
"What is the problem that you daydream about ignoring your son and husband?" ask Edward gently
Rahma told me from the beginning they were still in the room, until baby Ara asked for milk. Too long to wait, making Rahma decided to follow the husband. As soon as it came down, the husband was eavesdropping on the conversation of his brother and sister. Until the story behind him told me everything.
"Alright, based on the story of the two of you. I don't think you all want to be honest. Even if it hurts, honestly it's better. Now in front of Papa, you speak truthfully about your feelings. So that no misunderstandings end in hostility."
"Papa saw it as if Frans had started to burn because of the friction he had just heard. Seen from the words that were thrown out to Rio. Now you're apologizing to each other and telling the truth in front of Papa!" said Mr. Edward mediate the commotion that occurred.
So flowed the story that Rio himself pendam for a dozen years. About his love of being with Frans in pursuit of the same girl's love.
How shocked the beloved daughter-in-law of Mr. Edward was, he did not expect that the joke thrown by Rio was an expression of his heart. All this time he had already considered Rio as big brother.
Rahma also told everything that was felt when she first entered the school of Exemplary Work owned by Mr. Edward. Early on knowing Rio and Frans, Rahma prefers to be with her independent but spoiled child. Although he often bullies but he is different from other students.
A calamity came to him, but the man embraced him. Comforted him. The soul mate is already decisive and outlined. Since he was a child, it has been implanted in him, if loved it is better. So Rahma learned sincerely and accepted that became her lifeline. Rahma could love her husband and live happily.
Hearing all that Frans felt lost face. How not, because of his selfishness. Two people who love each other in silence cannot be together.
"I'm sorry, I've made you both suffer. All this because I love you so much that I want to have you completely..."
"I'm yours, don't be afraid of being taken away by others. If you love her so much treat her with affection. People will not be able to take it. Trust me, I'm a loyal woman!" rahma cuts off the husband's words.
"You're Rio, how are you feeling now? Is there still the same love for Rahma, Frans' wife?" asked Edward to the handsome but cold man.
All eyes were on Rio who was sitting next to Cecil. Dolly smiled faintly looking at Rio's face so no one knew.
"Honestly, it hasn't been around for a long time, Om. There was already someone who took his name in Rio's heart. However, it seems like fate has not sided with Rio yet. The woman Rio loved now belonged to someone else. Rio's late to realize, so yep that's how it is!" rio said ending with laughter.
Rio laughed at his stupidity that could not recognize his own feelings.
No one followed Rio's laughter, they all fell silent without even bothering to say a word.
"Eat him trying! Grab him, don't just shut up. If you don't try that there's loose again! If that's how it goes when to meet his soul mate?" dolly's chirps suddenly in silence.
"If you don't try to fight for your own love, who else? The soul mate was picked up if only just waiting will not come!" frans said to be gasoline for the stove that was turned on by Dolly.
"Yes, Bang! Right they say, you have to fight for your love. Even though it belongs to people, it is tied up firmly. If not the soul mate will come off too!" Cecil doused gasoline on the stove.
"If you may know who this woman who has successfully melted the iceberg in front of me is?" ask Edward curious.
Rio just shook his head, a sign unwilling to tell who the lucky lady was.
"Come, Rio! Tell me who the woman who managed to make your life colorful!" pinta Rahma whining.
"I'm sorry I can't! Later if we are a match, we will definitely be together. You'll know everything!" rio said calmly.
Everyone was silent because they did not want to interfere in Rio's affairs. They are like a family, but they respect what everyone decides. So they chose silence and did not question who had won Rio's heart.
"Abang that's it, Cecil aja always the same story Brother. Cook brother does not want the same story Cecil. It's not fair that it's called!" whinek Cecil while shaking Rio's arm.
