Secrets of the Former (Love Left Behind)

Hundred Two

"But the black shadow of the Moon has never disappeared from us!"

The voice of someone suddenly sounded roll out in almost the entire room, plus again because the rice floor was quiet. All turned towards the entrance and a well-built man with mature brown skin was staring at Gantari with angry glittering eyes.

Behind him was another man with a body no less firm, but the man did not step in. He simply remained silent near the door in a standby position.

The man who shouted that .. was Tjokorda Wiratha, Gantari's uncle.

Nevan and Edo stand first, followed by Gantari and Jero. Wiratha continued to walk closer, cutting the distance between herself and the niece she had once sealed.

"Mom always lamented the Moon. Watching the Moon quietly until you forget you have another child. The moon is a stain!"

"Jokorda Wiratha!" Jero shouted in wrath, along with landing a slap right on Wiratha's cheek.

Wiratha. The slap did not hurt his face at all, but not his heart. Wiratha looked at Jero.

"May to death is mother's fault!" reply Wiratha no less high. "Tjokorda Maya, my sister, should still be alive if only mother gave her a little attention."

Jero's body shook, then he began to sob. His body sagged to the floor, but it was fortunate that he could still hold it in and sit back down on the chair.

"Enough Wiratha!"

"Even unto death I will not accept this comforting daughter into our family!" Wiratha pointed at Gantari's face in wrath. Seeing that, Nevan had already stepped forward and directly pulled the rough shoulder of Wiratha, until the middle-aged man was a little shrewd.

"Just calm down, Young Master. I won't bother your future wife, as long as she doesn't intend to go into our family" Wiratha said with both hands raised. "I don't intend to touch him either."

Nevan was about to throw her punch, but Edo hurriedly held her back. Wiratha laughed discordantly, then stepped away from there followed by a large, faithful young man walking behind her.

"Maya who? Please don't involve Gantari in this!" Nevan warned. He grabbed Gantari's hand, then pulled her out of Dharmawangsa Terrace.

Jero cupped both of his palms to his face. He looked so beaten. Seeing that Edo felt pity and decided to approach him, then give Jero a tissue.

"Wiratha's right. Because I was so focused on the Moon, I didn't even know Maya was pregnant." Jero's cry broke again.

Edo was concerned to see the old woman before him. Slowly, he rubbed his shoulders.

"Wiratha loved Maya so much that she hated the Moon, but the Moon was not wrong. It's all my fault" continued Jero. Edo could even feel Jero's body trembling.

"If I may know, Maya ... died why?"

"Don't do it, dong, Van."

"What do I need to do? Why is Gantari threatened?" Nevan sighed to her hunt, then continued, "Gue wriggled at her eyes, Do. I saw! That's a look of vengeance."

"Gue understands, but avoiding also does not reduce the risk for Gantari, right?"

"As far as you go, deh." Nevan brushed off Edo's hand trying to keep him away.

"There is one more suspicion of me" Edo said, making Nevan's move to enter the house stop. "About the accident of Gantari's mother, the Light of the Moon, a few years ago."

Nevan turned her body rough, then walked quickly towards Edo. Then, clutching firmly the collar of the private detective's shirt.

"Don't fuck around, yeah, Do! If Dihyan hears, he can ...."

"What if Gantari never finds the truth? On the truth he can get." Edo challenged Nevan with his gaze. "Loe can excuse yourself?"

Bruk!

A punch landed on Edo's face, until the young man fell to the ground. Edo rubbed his sore lips, then grieved.

"Gue know from the beginning Gantari is an important priority that you always want to protect, but do not blind Gini Van!" Edo resurgently. He tried to stand up again. "Don't be selfish by continuing to deceive him in the dark. Gantari needs to know her origins, she needs to know the cause of her mother's accident."

"DORRO!"

"Loe's not confident, is she? Do you believe that you can keep Gantari from Wiratha's om-om? Loe's coward, Van."

Edo always does. He was always good at provoking people. He was always good at stirring up one's emotions.

"Tomorrow to meet Jero at the same place. We'll finish it as soon as we can."

Edo turned his body, then stepped away. Leaving Nevan unmoved with thoughts raging.
