The Autumn In Heart
The Part 36
Briyan finished dinner, and her father and mother were sitting in the living room. Briyan casually lit up her cigarette while playing mobile phone.
"Briyan, have you met the Goddess family?" asked Briyan's father to open their conversation that night.
"Yet, dad. I'm sorry."
"Your father and mother have already sent people to investigate about the Goddess's parents." His father offered him several photos and identities that he managed to get.
Briyan immediately looked at the small-sized photo that Dad had placed on the table. He looked carefully at the photos one by one.
One of the photos shows Mother Goddess selling on the side of the road.
"So, his mother's a street vendor?" ask Briyan.
"Yes, that's it."
"Little trader is not a contemptible job, he is the same as us. We also trade, only his scale distinguishes. They're small swords, while we're big merchants." Said Briyan defending her mother Goddess.
"Fright, you're right." His father said, while his mother remained silent.
Briyan notices a photo, they live in a slum.
"So, they're poor families..."
Briyan's parents just silently listened to Briyan's words. He stared at a photograph of a man with a tattoo on a seedy market.
"Who is this? her dad?"
Briyan's father exhaled slowly. "Yes, he's the Goddess' father."
"He looks like a fake mafia, is he a thug??"
"Yes, he's a thug in that market."
Briyan was rather surprised to hear that. He almost lost his mind looking at the photo.
Briyan again saw the next photo, a woman was at the night club in sexy clothes.
"Who is this??"
"That's the Goddess' mother."
"What is he doing in a place like this?"
"At night, he works as a commercial***" worker." His father said in a less sure tone.
"really??" Briyan returned to the picture of the Goddess mother selling on the outskirts. He turned the photo back to make sure it was a different person. But he did not find the difference.
Briyan again saw a photo, there were some people who came to the Dewi house along with documents and identity that his father's agent managed to get.
It turns out that Dewi's father and mother are in debt at banks, cooperatives and loan sharks. Their data also looks genuine.
Briyan was shocked by what she saw. He massaged his forehead, even his cigarette was dead by itself.
"Who is this??" Briyan asked for the next photo.
"That's the sister and sister of the Goddess."
The photo shows the Goddess' brother begging in the streets.
"Why are they so bad? are you sure this is really them, the Goddess family?"
"Yes, I'm sure. Information that dad can be very accurate." His father assured.
Briyan also got a police record that her mother was a former criminal on drug courier charges.
Briyan was getting frustrated. He doesn't know what to do next. But this time his father and mother who used to be firm in making decisions, now they just keep quiet and hope that Briyan will not take the wrong step.
Briyan began to think hard, but the more he thought it would be useless. He put himself in bed and tried to close his eyes.
But the shadow of the Goddess and her family kept appearing in her mind. He got up and took the car keys, took his jacket and knit hat and drove to the garage to get his car out.
Father and mother just silently look at the behavior of the child. They have no intention of stopping or advising him. Because they are confident in their child's choice. All this time Briyan was a pride for them.
Meanwhile Briyan gets out of the garage doing her car. He went to the beach, where he used to calm down.
He ordered a cup of black coffee and sat on the edge of the bridge. He just looked and thought about what he had just seen in his house. He was so worried and didn't know what to do. Married to the Goddess is the same as tarnishing the good name of her father and mother.
Sometimes he seems annoyed. He picked up a rock on the ground and threw it into the ocean as far as possible.
Pluck up!
Pluck up!
Pluck up!
Pluck up!
He threw stones, but his heart and mind did not improve. It's getting frustrating.
Until midnight, he was still there and unchanged from his position. Cigarettes are also gone.
He picks up his phone and calls Sean, asking Sean to come to the beach with him if he is not busy. Sean agreed, he asked Briyan to wait.
20 Minutes later, Sean got there.
"What are you doing here Bri...? the night wind is not good for health." Sean brought a cup of hot milk coffee with a large glass, then sat right next to Briyan.
Briyan did not budge and did not answer Sean's question. He just lit his cigarette again with an unpleasant face.
"Have your mom and dad done it again? your face is so upset." Sean was trying to dig up what was going on.
"It wasn't my mom and dad who acted, it was me..."
Sean looked at Briyan questioningly. "really? so you're a troublemaker, and your mom and dad used to scold you."
Briyan did not intend to answer Sean's words, he just lowered his head to exhale cigarette smoke.
"It seems like your problem is very serious."
Sean takes a cigarette Briyan, Briyan is astonished and snatches it.
"What are you doing?! you're not a smoker, don't try to touch it!"
But late, Sean managed to get a cigarette and lit it with a match.
"It's not that you've never seen me smoke, you think I can't smoke." Sean breathed out his cigarette smoke. "Just like the Goddess, she had also experienced heavy things in her family. Therefore he decided to go as far as possible.Dewi position is much heavier than you Bri, but I think if you are not determined to live with him, it is better not at all."
Briyan was surprised to hear Sean say.
"Do you know everything??" Briyan looked at Sean.
"Of course Bri. Your father ordered agents to investigate the Dewi family, while your father's agents were also my agents. How could I not know?"
"So, about the Dewi family...is all that true??"
Sean was silent for a moment. "All that's true."
Briyan bowed lethargic.
"You still have a choice, even if it's a heavy choice. As for Goddess, she has no choice at all Bri. He is like a free bird, able to fly here and there without coercion or bonding. Because for him to have a bond with you will only create a new ruin."
