Swan Cherophobia

Chapter 29 Crocodile Tears

...“Your words are true!...

...He is a liar who loves what I am!”...

Sunday morning, at Jaro's house,

Jaro was busy printing his wedding photos in the study. Without him knowing, there has been Deniz who noticed his behavior.

“What a pleasure is it already married? Until printed photos,” teolok Deniz.

“Iya dong! When was Deniz married? But how can you not like me huh?”

Deniz pushed Jaro's head in annoyance. “Ngga will! I will have more respect for my future wife.”

“Ouch! Yes, yes.” Jaro showed the prints.

“This is not for me to save, Mas. But for her ex-boyfriend Ansa.”

“Hah?! Which one's Ansa's boyfriend, Ro?”

Jaro went back to telling everything from the beginning to his brother. From those who secretly follow their father to the sanggar, to the story of Ansa whose ex-boyfriend wants to seize the TechFarm company.

“Does her ex-boyfriend know about Ansa's phobia?” ask Deniz.

Jaro shakes. “Ansa real privacy about his hobby, Mas. I just found out when I joined the studio.”

“And now I want to get the blessing of his father Ansa, by eliminating his work rivals in the company. I know this isn't easy—”

“Ma-love yes, Ro. Because you have been honest with me, though honesty is bitter to hear. By being honest, it's easier for me to help you, Ro. Because our thinking has been in line.”

Jaro frowned. “But first Mas didn't agree I bully Ansa. So in the past, Mas Deniz really liked to Ansa?”

“Had this child, if jealous say aja dong. Ro, I used to think of the two of you as my sister. I'm also sad when you know your parents' problems.”

“Hehe. Tomorrow I will send you these photos to surprise him,”.

“Keep if he doesn't accept, you guys will do what?” ask Deniz.

Monday night, at Ansa's house.

Ansa and Jaro are studying together for the final exam preparation for the 2nd grade of High School. Actually they were waiting for Hardi's father to come home, and if they could be with Ranu.

“You are sure Ranu mas will be here?”

Jaro nodded. “Cowok also needs certainty, Sa.”

Tok!

A pair of eyes belonging to Father Hardi and Ranu stared intently at them as they just entered the door of the house.

“That's them, Om! They're secretly married!” exclamation Ranu.

Ansa shut up, Jaro didn't shut up. “Iya, right! We had our honeymoon yesterday!”

“HEH!!” Ranu advanced and gripped Jaro's collar. Now Jaro's height beats Ranu's height.

“A-what?” Jaro grinning.

“ANSA!” father's strangulation made Ansa turn to her father.

“Why dear? Why did you marry the son of your mother's murderer?!” Dad held both of his only child's shoulders.

Ansa stared fixedly at the eyes of her hero. “Ka-we love each other—”

Bukk!

Ranu gave his right fist to Jaro. “Love? No way!! Ansa only loves me, Om!”

“Definitely ... surely this brand*lan child who has forced Ansa!” Ranu.

Jaro slumped onto the sofa. Ranu's punch earlier made the tip of his mouth hurt.

Ansa prevents Ranu from hitting Jaro. “Mas must be aware! He is now my husband!”

But Ansa brushed it off. “I chose him, because he is the owner of Mandraguna school!” dustiness.

Jaro smiled faintly behind his grimacing face in pain. Because before, he and Ansa had discussed the plan to humiliate Ranu perfectly.

“Ro, if later papa or mas Ranu ask me, ‘Why did you marry her, Sa?!’ or ‘Why did you choose it, Sa?!’ What do I have to answer? Masa’ I replied because we have–” Ansa's speech was cut because Jaro put his index finger in front of his lips.

“Jawab aja, ‘Because he is the owner of the school! Not like Ranu who is just an intern!’ That, Sa.”

“Ta-but, later I considered marrying you because there was something about you, Ro—”

“We are the only ones who know that our love is sincere.”

Back to today, though,

My father pulled Ansa closer to him. “Sa, Papa less anything in your eyes?” ask him while shedding tears.

“A-or because Papa wants to get married again, why are you doing this? Sa, Papa love you. Ranu loves you too. But you married his son a murderer!”

“Jawab honest, Sa. Wh why? WHY SA?!” snapped dad.

Sorry, Pa, Ro. I have to be honest now, because I can't bear to see papa crying, Ansa said.

“It was originally because Papa wanted to get married again. I felt Papa would leave me. B-but my husband managed to convince me that I should accept Papa's marriage because it was for my own good,”.

“At that moment, I just realized. That the person I've been waiting for for 4 years, it turns out he just loves what I am. What's my family!” Ansa's eyes stared intently at Ranu.

“Pa ... Soon Papa will be bullied by someone from Papa's past,” said Ansa like a smart person.

“Ha?” lirih.

Ansa raised her index finger and pointed it at Ranu. “Father from the guy wants to seize the company Papa!”

“Again,” murmured father while shaking his head. “Indeed if his hobby likes bullying, he won't stop.”

“What do you mean, Om, Sa?” ask Ranu.

“Now I understand the meaning of my son. And actually, I'm already suspicious of your moves!” Dad nodded again. “Dad and child alike,” murmured.

“Sa-I don't understand—” protest Ranu.

“Long!!” sergeant Ansa. “Mas just approached me so I could get a position in the company! Right, ‘kan?!”

Ansa and her father compactly corner Ranu. Jaro only keeps silent so that he does not add to the problems between them, even though there is a desire to avenge Ranu's blow.

“At first my intention to approach you was indeed to get a position in the company, Sa. But the longer, the more I feel that I'm starting to love you, Sa.” Ranu walked over to Ansa.

“A-I don't want to lose you, Sa. Please ... You just leave that weak man!”

“Mas, try to see both eyes.” Ansa let Ranu turn his head towards Jaro. “She really wants to hit you, but she is resistant.”

“Already understand? Or still not?”

Ranu shook his head, making Ansa begin to explain as she heard from Jaro.

As they fell into the honey abyss, behind the dimness Ansa heard Jaro say,

I often threatened to get you out of school. Butwhat? Right now we are just united. All this time, you have often defeated me. You can finish me off at any time, Sa. Even today, you should be able to finish me off using that shard of glass.

Unknowingly, you believe that God will avenge the bad people around you. Maybe all this time you just begged to increase your strength and want to eliminate your phobia. But God helps you by punishing the bad people.

From your eyes, I see an indifference and one thing I don't. Patience, Sa.

But I'm a little disappointed, why do you hate yourself now? And why do I care about you? Maybe because I already know your phobia huh?

“Mas Ranu .. he is trying to be patient. Yes, he's my husband. He's gathering energy to bring you down. Oho! And also, he is waiting for God's justice to stop your evil intentions!” Ansa's speech was gentle but piercing.

"So now you're supporting her, Sa? I thought you were loyal to me." Ranu looked at Ansa while shedding tears.

"Heh lake crocodile!" Jaro got up from the sofa. "Now loyal is just for me! You are loyal to be an apprentice!"

"Yeah .. Now I'm still an intern. But later, I will be the chief director of your company, Om Hardi. Besides, I will destroy your pride school, ing*san boy!!" threatening Ranu.
