Rean stared intently at Karina who was sitting snobbishly in the chair of Rean's study. It felt like the man wanted to immediately eliminate his own Grandmother if he did not remember how much Reana loved the old woman.
"Now give me those photos and videos!" rean said with great emphasis. He's fed up with pretending to be nice to Jane and will continue to hurt Reana.
"I'll hand over the photos and the videos, if you're married to Jane" Karina said casually, believing that her granddaughter would obey her this time.
"Are you crazy?! I'm not marrying another woman! Even looking at them I felt disgusted!" rean said without the slightest courtesy.
To him, the old woman before him right now was no longer his Grandmother, but a demon who was trying to destroy the future of his own granddaughter. I don't know why he was so cruel to Reana.
"Then I'll spread it .. and we'll see how Reana reacts after her disgrace. Are you ready to see that girl destroyed?"
Rean gasped, if it came to Reana, the man would become weak and useless altogether. Rean clenched his hand, he did not want Reana's future ruined because of the photo and video.
Because the photo and video contained Reana who was in a condition almost naked when making out with Rean a few days ago in his room.
His Grandmother's man was very skilled in disguising Rean's identity, because inside there only contained Reana's face without even the slightest look of Rean's face.
The photo explains as if Reana was playing with a striped-nose man still wearing his formal suit. Really, Rean felt furious this time.
"Don't mess with me, Grandma! I won't hesitate to p-show"
"Kill me?" karina asked lightly, "are you willing to kill your own Grandma, Rean?" karina underestimated Rean. Soon Rean took Revolver from the drawer of the storage table in the room.
Without the slightest feeling, Rean immediately pressed the tip of his firearm against Karina's forehead. The old woman was shocked not a bitch, because the grandson with the heart would kill her.
"I'll be happy to do it!" hiss Rean was ready to pull the trigger.
"And are you ready to see Reana grieve, and don't forget that she'll hate you for the rest of her life!" again Karina made Reana as her shield, she was sure that Rean would really finish her this very second. However, the man would have been devastated if it came to Reana.
Sure enough, Rean immediately pulled back his hand. Imagining Reana will hate her and losing that girl's love alone, has made her sick. What if it all really happened? It could be Rean who would later kill himself.
"It." Karina handed over some of Reana's wide photos in inappropriate circumstances.
"Where's the rest? Don't spread this photo. You can destroy me, but don't destroy my Rean" Rean hurriedly put the photo in an envelope. He did not want others to see his exposed body.
"I'll hand it over after you marry Jane!" Karina still did not want to give up on Rean.
"B********!" rean doesn't care who the interlocutor is right now. If only the man did not remember Reana, it is certain that Karina was already greeted by the angel of life.
Rean decided to leave his study. Arguing with Karina is like arguing with a child who will not budge.
***
Rean stood on the balcony of the library in his mansion, a book thick enough to be in his hands. The book is about the impact of forbidden marriage between brothers. There is a possibility of their offspring who are born disabled, autoimmune, to babies who are not safe and also difficult to get offspring.
The man glared far into the future, he looked up at the sky as if he could see a picture of his future up there. Rean breathed a tired breath, various trials came to him.
Not only is the way to unite with the younger brother very difficult, but also the impact in the future if they are officially married.
However, it wasn't Rean's name if he just gave up. The man swore he would not let Reana go, even if the girl herself asked.
"Rean," called a girl from behind him. Rean turned his head and saw Jane was there, the girl standing just a few meters in front of him, very close.
"What's wrong?" Rean asked Jane coldly, he was fed up with the two-faced woman.
"We had to go to the boutique to order a wedding dress. I have an acquaintance of a famous designer, we can meet him," Jane said, offering Rean a choice. The girl smiled pretty.
"Later in the afternoon, Jane. I was not well this morning."
"Do you need a doctor? I can call it for you." Jane touches the back of Rean's hand, the man actually wants to pull over, but he blurts out considering everything he did to Jane the girl will report to Karina. And if he treats Jane harshly, then Karina will be even more cruel to Reana.
"No, I'm getting enough rest" Rean said slowly. Jane approaches, the girl cupping Rean's face abruptly.
Getting closer until Jane rubbed Rean's lips gently. The man was silent, there was no reply and no rejection. However, his heart ached when he imagined Reana's disappointed face.
PRANGS!
The noise of ceramic fragments shocked the two of them. When the two turned to the door, Reana was there with a blank look full of wounds.
His tears flowed profusely, even he forgot his feet were bleeding from the broken ceramic plate he was carrying.
Rean immediately walked towards Reana, but the girl quickly ran from there. He did not care about his brother who kept calling even after him. His heart was already sick, his heart was broken, and his heart was already grievous about the wounds incised by Rean quite deeply.
He ran through the main door of the mansion, there was no direction to go, which he obviously wanted to go far and no longer saw Rean and Jane around him.
BRUK!
"Sorry .. hiks .. forgive me," Reana said on the sidelines as she pleased. The girl continued to hide her face. He did not want others to know he was crying, even though it seemed futile, because the person he hit knew his tears from the beginning.
"Reana?" call the guy slow. Reana looked up, and her cries grew louder when she saw who she hit.
"Uncle .. hiks ... Uncle Aldric ... hiks .. sa-kit, very sick ... hiks," cried Reana who made Aldric stare at the little girl's pain. As if to feel the pain that Reana suffered, Aldric grabbed the girl in his arms. Letting his expensive suit be soaked by Reana's tears, he also let Reana roar in his arms.
No matter where they were, no matter how many pairs of eyes were staring at them with wondering eyes, and no matter how long Reana cried and she had to keep standing while clutching the teenage girl tightly.
Aldric just wants a little useful for Reana, although he will not be able to have the girl. It's okay, as long as he can always be present when Reana is injured. It's okay, as long as he can give happiness a moment for Reana before the girl is happy by the person she really loves.
Sick? Of course it hurts. However, Aldric has learned a lot to withstand the pain of life wounds, he has learned from childhood about various kinds of pain.
His life is not as perfect as others see it, Aldric is still an ordinary man who has a dark past just like everyone else in general.
"Cry. It's okay, I'm here." that's all Aldric said, Reana hugged the man firmly, her cries subsided a little and she wanted to go missing from Rean's life and his other family.
However, if he left, what about Raina? His sister is very spoiled for him and also hates Rean at this time. What if he hates Reana too? Reana is worried, she also can not be selfish by choosing to leave just like that and she also can not let her heart continue to feel pain and finally broken alone.
He could not wait quietly in Rean's palace until the day of his destruction.
"Take me away, Uncle. Everywhere," said Reana sobbed. Aldric closed his eyes, he wanted to take Reana away. However, the girl will suffer even more if she lives with him who is not loved by Reana at all.
"Come, come with me." Aldric takes Reana to his car just as Rean stops behind the girl. Aldric looked at Rean with disappointment, it was okay if this time Aldric was being a little selfish with Reana. He just wanted to teach Rean a little lesson about the meaning of Reana by his side.
"Reana," Rean called out in pain in his chest. It felt tight and as if a katana was drawing out its heart. Rean cried, he could not see Reana who looked at him with disappointment.
Rean was still standing looking at the car that had the heart to take his girl away.
Now, he became a weak man, he cried only because of Reana who he once hated to leave.
"Reana, why did you leave me. I did that for you, to protect you from Grandma. Don't go, Reana .. don't leave me alone" Rean said shortly before losing consciousness.
***
Raina strangles Jane's neck after cursing the girl all out. Now, not only Reana left, but also Rean who was lying weak and was being handled by Doctor Arthur.
Jane can only resign when Raina can not fight at all. I don't know why a little girl like Raina could have that much power and make Jane almost die of suffocation if Karina and Saga hadn't stopped her.
"Is Grandma satisfied now? My grandmother made both my sisters suffer. Reana is gone, and Brother Rean is unconscious!
Does Grandma want to kill them slowly, huh?!" raina shouted right in front of her own Grandma's face.
The old woman pondered, feeling ill considering that everything Raina said was true. He did not mean to torture them, he just wanted to get his two favorite grandchildren back on the right path.
They are blood brothers, one Mother and one Father. It is not allowed for them to be in a relationship, especially until marriage. Unjustified in any religion, their relationship is forbidden and must be immediately terminated before it becomes a catastrophe for themselves.
"Raina, Grandma just-"
"What only?! You are so selfish and selfish! This is not how Grandma made them sober! Not by pitting their sheep into hating each other! Are you happy that we're divided? Is Grandma happy to see all your grandchildren hate you?!"
Karina tears up when she remembers her happy childhood. Without strife, without quarrels, and of course there are no wounds as of now.
If it's like this, who's guilty?
Is God deliberately playing with their destiny?
Karina tries to get into Rean's room, but Raina stops her. The girl stared intently at her Grandma, she hated the old woman who had nurtured her since childhood.
"I'll take care of my brother. Don't bother him!" Raina goes inside after Doctor Arthur comes out. Raina enthralls Rean with Saga following him in the back.
"Reana ...," Rean mutu in his sleep. The man looked weak and frightened. He kept calling Reana.
"Sister," whispered Raina pitying. The girl looked towards Saga who was also standing beside her.
"Find Reana for my sister. He really needs Reana, find him see you." Raina tried hard by holding back her tears so as not to spill.
Saga immediately goes to carry out the duties of Raina, he must be able to find Reana or he will continue to see the three brothers who are shrouded in a fog of sadness.
Saga already considered them like his own family, surely their sadness was Saga's sorrow as well. He did not want this problem to continue to drag on until it finally destroyed them all.
Raina stared at the ceiling of Rean's room, trying to hold back her tears from dripping. He doesn't want to look weak at the moment.
However, his tears could not be dammed again when he saw a wedding ring box on the table next to Rean's bed.
"Is that how much you love Reana, sister?" raina asked before gently peeping Rean's forehead. The girl sleeps next to Rean by hugging the man whose fever has begun to decline.
***
Reana sat pensively in front of a piano in the Aldric residence. The girl was playing the melody of the piano, a melody full of pain that represented her heart in pain.
She cried, kept crying, and kept thinking about Rean. True to say, if love makes people as strong as anything become weak.
But he has no regrets at all for having had such a great love for Rean. Even though he knew the love he had received was a taboo feeling that would only create suffering in his life.
He tried to heed the ears over the scorn of the people around him, he also tried to blind his eyes when he saw the figure of the man he loved was his own biological brother. He did not want to see reality, and he also set aside the existing norms for daring to love his own brother.
And this is the payoff?
A betrayal!
It hurts, that's what Reana feels. He tried to hate Rean, but he really couldn't do it. His heart refused even though his brain ruled to hate.
Reana returns as she pleases, and Aldric gazes at the girl he loves now looking very fragile and desperate. For a moment he thought about Rean. How is the man doing at the moment?
Did he have fun with his new girl? Ah, Aldric dismissed all those assumptions. Rean is a man who has a hard time falling in love, and he is sure that this time Rean will not just forget Reana.
"If only you weren't brothers," said Aldric also felt sad even though not as much as Reana felt.
***
Raina waits for Reana at her school gate, hoping that Reana will go to school this morning even though her sister is running away from home.
Finally the disappointment he got, until the bell rang Reana was not there. He misses his sister, he wants to hug Reana and calm the girl who is certainly currently in the midst of sadness due to the actions of Jane and Karina.
"Will Raina?" call Zefaro confused when he saw Raina who was still standing at the gate when the bell had rang.
"What are you doing here?" ask Zefaro again. But Raina who would usually respond nervously or shyly when answering her question, now the girl just silently stared.
"Reana ... left the house" he said softly but could still be heard clearly by Zefaro. The man was surprised, because Reana had always seemed fine.
"How come? I mean, what's the matter?" ask Zefaro who suspects something is wrong with his best friend.
"The story is quite complicated," replied Raina who was confused from where she had once explained. He was actually hesitant to tell about the forbidden relationship that was being lived by his two brothers. Even if it is a family disgrace that must be covered closely.
"You can trust me to keep a secret." Zafaro convinces the worried Raina. The girl seemed to think for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Afterwards, Zefaro invites Raina to leave their school area. Ditching once is certainly not a problem, right?
Both are now riding a Lamborghini sports car owned by Zefaro. They went to the place where Zefaro used to visit when he had problems or was sad.
