Reunite

"That's Nadhea, right?" Kennan spoke while pointing forward.

Without replying, Kaivan followed Kennan's direction. Seen there, Nadhea was walking side by side with Arsen. Out of nowhere, suddenly a warm feeling spread in Kaivan's heart. Then, that feeling pushed his foot to step in that direction.

Seeing Kaivan leave without a word, Kennan just shook his head. He believes Kaivan thinks Nadhea is more than a sister-in-law, but his best friend doesn't want to confess.

"She has a husband and you want to marry her sister. Even if there is love, it seems difficult yes, Kai," muttered Kennan.

Meanwhile, Kaivan approaches Arsen and Nadhea who are choosing bath soap. Before greeting, Kaivan first glanced at the shopping basket Nadhea was holding. There is milk for pregnant women there. Kaivan's heart ached suddenly, as if something was pinching him.

"Mas Arsen, Nadhea!" greet Kaivan.

Arsen and Nadhea looked up, looking at Kaivan who was already standing right in front. Arsen was memicing, displaying an unhappy look. While Nadhea, she bit her lips while looking at her heart, as if implying great hope.

Kaivan was glued before greeting further. When looking at Nadhea's face, Kaivan vaguely saw a bruised covered mekap. As he lowered his gaze, Kaivan saw that Nadhea's neck bone was very prominent. The woman was much thinner than the last time they met.

"Is he not okay?" inner Kaivan. Her eyes kept on looking, but unfortunately Nadhea was wearing a shirt and a long skirt. So, only his face, neck, and palms could be seen.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?" Arsen asked as he wrapped his arms around Nadhea's waist, as if intentionally confirming that the woman was only hers.

"There's a photo shoot in this town. It just so happened to be noon, so I went shopping first" Kaivan replied. He glanced at Arsen, then looked at Nadhea again. But the woman just looked down. Not a single bit returned Kaivan's gaze.

"Hopefully have a great day!" sahut Arsen with a cynical tone. Then, he stepped away without letting go of his embrace.

Kaivan turned around and looked at their backs which were getting further away. Indeed, the heart is moved to follow. However, his logic held back because Nadhea and Arsen were married. Though convinced that their relationship is not healthy, Kaivan has no proof. So, what can be done?

"Cock, have you left?" ask Kennan who is now standing next to Kaivan.

"Come on," Kaivan muttered.

"Hey! You why?" Kennan patted Kaivan on the shoulder, staring at the expression of his friend who was far from cheerful.

"I don't think he's okay" Kaivan replied.

"I saw the corner of his lips and forehead as a bruise. Not too clear anyway, it's a bit thick" said Kaivan.

"You sure?" ask Kennan.

"Yes. Why do you think .. is that?" Kaivan looked at Kennan, asking for a positive opinion.

"No luck, but hopefully not the KDRT" Kennan replied.

"You think about it there?"

"If the bruised are men, it may be because of fighting. But if the girl .. thin possibility. Actually, it could have been an accident, but .. look at her husband's gaze as a serem. So, yeah, a little negative my mind."

Kennan's reply left Kaivan speechless. He thought, Kennan who did not know about 'Fractured Wings' could only guess so, let alone himself. Is that story really real?

"Nadhea, what's really going on?" kaivan in concern.

At the same time, Arsen and Nadhea had already arrived at the parking lot. With a quick movement, Arsen opened the car door and looked at Nadhea sharply.

"Lake in!" snapped Arsenic.

Without saying a word, Nadhea went straight in and sat down beside the wheel. Shortly after, Arsen came in. However, the man did not immediately start the car engine, but squeezed Nadhea's body and grabbed her arm.

"This is why you shop! You got an appointment with that fucking guy? You're planning this dirty thing on your head, aren't you?" arsen snapped right in front of Nadhea's face.

"No, Mas. I also don't know why Kaivan is there" replied Nadhea with her head lowered. As much as possible he endured the pain in the arm. Arsenic grip is quite strong and right in the bruised part.

Not the answer Nadhea got, but a hard slap that just landed on her cheek. Followed by the grip that is now switched on the neck, until Nadhea coughs and has difficulty breathing.

"Anytime you cheat, I will never forgive you, Dhea! Catch that!" threaten Arsen still with high intonation.

Seriate...
