The Comfortable Zone of a Relationship
Chapter 24
Time has shown at 19:00, when Bhie sits at the table of a cafe, which was deliberately ordered.
Bhie waits for someone restlessly, this is the first time, Bhie took the initiative first to meet the mother.
In the end Bhie decided to speak to his mother first, before making his next decision.
" Bhiantang (welcome kindly ). Mama is very happy, when you contact mama, finally you want to also talk to mama" said Mentari.
" Don't be happy just yet. I want to ask you something ", Bhie said.
" What about ? " The sun is sitting in front of Bhie.
" What's your husband named Nouval ? " Bhie without further ado.
" Do you know where your husband's name is ? " The mentor asked.
" It's true yes. Then, surely mama recognized these faces ? " Bhie showing photos in her phone.
" This is ..." The mentari was surprised.
" As you can see in the photo, I know all of them" Bhie said.
" You were deliberately friends with them ? " Mentari directly accused.
" no. I was friends with them, long before my mom came back into my life. And mama look at the man beside this (while pointing at photo ). It was Samran Bintoro's uncle, his girlfriend (while pointing at photo ). Mama's shocked, right ? " said Bhie.
" How about ??? " The mentari does not believe.
" It's fair, isn't it ? When you leave, you leave me, the people who love me come near me, make friends with me, accompany me and all of them, know why you left me. Now, how do you explain it to all of them ? Especially at. (while pointing at photo ) " Bhie said.
" What ...??? " The mentor was really surprised.
" He once said to me that his stepmother was graceful, as graceful as his birth mother. She was so proud to be able to match her stepmother with her deceased birth mother. Her heart would be broken, when she found out, the mother she was proud of was my real mama. The man who had left his own son, to go with another man, who was now the husband of mama" Bhie said at length.
" WHAT DOES THIS MEAN...??? "
Immediately Mentari and Bhie turned around, looking towards the arrival of the voice.
" sin..." Mentari and Bhie together.
Sin walked over to Bhie.
" What are you talking to Bhie ? Kan, I told you, DON'T INTERFERE with who I'm dealing with "Sin pulled Bhie's hand.
" Sin, you misunderstood me, I don't." said Mentari.
" Mom can see now, how is our relationship ? (while raising Sin's hand grip). So, who's gonna say it ? Me .. or mama ? " said Bhie.
" Mama ??? You call my mom mama ??" Sin wonder.
Not yet had time to answer, suddenly came a man approaching Mentari and it is predictable the man is Nouval, Sin's father.
" Dear...!!! " Nouval greets Mentari.
" MUM...?? (with a surprise). Mom, do you know where I'm from ? " ask the Mentari.
" I made a pact with Sin here, and seeing you from afar, I came to you. Sin you have also come. And this must be Bhientang, how have you guys talked ? " said Nouval.
" Daddy know Bhie ??? " Sin wonder.
" Of course. Bhiantang is the daughter of Mentari's mother, from a previous marriage, which means she is your step-sister" Nouval said.
" Sister...??? What's that...." Sin looked towards Mentari.
" Bhientang daughter mother. Because of one thing, all this time I have not introduced to you and other families" said Mentari explained.
" Bhie, is that true ??? " Sin looked at Bhie still in disbelief.
" I didn't mean to lie to you, I just found out, this morning from Ian's sister. Sorry Sin, that's the truth, we're half-brothers" said Bhie staring at Sin.
" No...!!! I can't believe it, it's not true. You guys must be lying "Sin still doesn't believe it.
" You must be disappointed, so will I Sin. But that's the truth, the person you call mom is the one I call mom. The same one, the mother who left me and the mother you were proud of" Bhie said.
" What are you guys talking about ??? " Nouval seems confused by the direction of the conversation.
" How far is your relationship ? " ask the Mentari.
" What, according to my mother ? " Bie asked back.
" Bie...!!! " said Sin lirih.
" Sorry Sin..." Bhie released Sin's hand.
Without saying any more Bhie left the place, tears that had been detained since, now slid freely wet Bhie's cheeks.
While Sin was still silently fixated, still unable to believe what he had just heard.
Nouval looked at his son and wife in turn, staring with a puzzled look and wondering, what really happened ?.
While Mentari was silent, he himself did not know where to start, to explain.
Bhie walked over with a shammer, his gaze was blank, his mind was completely muddled, everything went against his original thought, because Sin who suddenly appeared unexpectedly.
( Haahh. Now what should it be ??? ) Inner Bhie in heart.
Tears continued to flow out, how many times it was wiped, not wanting to stop, even the people around began to whisper, looking pity at him.
Footsteps came to a halt, as Bhie bumped into someone standing in front of him.
Bhie took a step back and straightened his head, seeing who he had hit just now.
A familiar face, staring with a worried look, which made Bhie grow sadder and cry louder.
" Cry the little boss, come out all your sadness "Nino hugs Bhie.
In the end, Bhie cried as if he was in Nino's arms, occasionally Nino patted Bhie's back gently.
Nino who knew how close their relationship was, also felt their sadness and disappointment.
" Nino take me home" said Bhie Lirih.
" Certainly can be small "Nino nodded his head.
Nino drove Bhie home by car, when he arrived at home, it turned out that someone was waiting for him.
Sam and Raswan were a little surprised to see Bhie's state that was like crying.
" Bie...!!! What are you why ? Daritadi, I called, but you didn't pick up, where are you ? " Sam was really worried.
" You...out of crying Bhie ...? " Raswan is also worried about Bhie.
Bhie did not reply, he just walked past Sam and Raswan just like that, which added to the curiosity in the hearts of the two.
Now their eyes turned to Nino, because Bhie got out of his car, must know what happened.
" Bhie why ? You know what happened to Bhie ? What did you DO TO HER ??? " Sam asked Nino.
" Em... that, just now... little boss...!!! How about. said yes..." Nino was a little hesitant and confused about where to start.
" QUICK LOVE TAU, do not make people worry more" said Raswan impatiently.
" Em.that's the little boss..." Nino is confused.
Not only did Nino finish her sentence, the three of them were startled with the sound of Bhie's scream from inside the house accompanied by the sound of things being slammed.
The three of them rushed to run, seeing Bhie's state.
Sure enough, when they entered, the state of the room was already in a mess, there were even some broken items, while Bhie sat on the floor hugging his legs.
There was the sound of heart-wrenching cries from Bhie's mouth.
Sam walked over, with a careful step, avoiding the items scattered on the floor.
Sam sat in front, gently touching Bhie's shoulder, and Bhie raised his head, looking at Sam's face.
" Don't be like this, you can get hurt" said Sam softly.
" Uncle...!!! " Bie hugged Sam.
" Crying like this, is this the same person? " ask Sam.
" What should I do ? Now what should I do ? Why ? Why is mom so bad ? My fault..my fault where ? " said Bhie while crying sobbing.
" It turns out right "Sam rubbed Bhie's head.
There's nothing they can do, other than let Bhie cry. A few moments later Bhie fell asleep on his own.
Sam laid Bhie on the bed, covered her body and kissed her forehead.
Sam gives Raswan and Nino the code to leave Bhie's room first, just a moment later Sam follows out of the room.
" Tell me what you know, EVERYTHING" said Sam looking towards Nino.
" It's the first time, I saw Bhie crying, honestly I was worried about him " Raswan added.
" I don't know for sure, but from what I saw earlier, the little boss met the woman, whom I knew the woman's stepmother the boss "Nino explained.
" You mean, the boss....Sin ??? " Sam asserts.
" yes. The boss is his father there too. But while listening to their conversation, I found out that the boss's stepmother, the little boss's real mother "Nino explained again.
" Geez, how can you ??? " said Raswan surprised.
" Not to mention us, they were all surprised to know this. They must be disappointed, especially the boss and the little boss. They are just starting to realize their own feelings but instead become brothers, must be hurt and do not accept ", said Nino.
Sam took a deep breath and exhaled.
" Why is it so complicated ? " said Sam.
" Then the story, pity the two of them, it's worth Bhie to his side" Raswan said.
" Do you know where ? they like each other? " ask Sam.
" From the two of them, I realized at Windy's party. Not accusing, but they have spent the night together 2 times" Nino said.
" DO NOT CARELESSLY TALK "Sam raised his voice.
" What's the proof...??? " ask Raswan.
" After Windy's party, they went home together and got home in the morning, because I had the little boss' bike with me. Then this morning, when I called the boss, the one who picked up was the little boss. Even so I believe, they do not do anything, because I know, the boss really loves the little boss "Nino explained.
" Sin your boss, why did you expose his disgrace ?" Raswan was a little surprised.
" Because I care about them "Nino replied firmly.
" Hadechh, I'm dizzy. At this time brother Ram is not at home anymore "Sam scratches his head.
" Trus now what ? It's a pity that Bhie was left alone, afraid that anything would happen " Raswan said.
" Oh yeah. I just remembered, I didn't let the boss. I must be wanted. Raswan you come with me, grab the little boss' bike in the cafe parking lot. Let Sam accompany the little boss ", said Nino.
" But the key, what ? " said Raswan.
" Tuh just use the spare key, it's on your back wall" Sam said.
After they both left, Sam returned to Bhie's room. He saw the sleeping face of his nephew.
Nino's words were still ringing in his ears, trying to refute his words, but what if they had already done so ? That's the worst possibility.
(You must be strong Bhie, you can definitely get through this all ) Sam's inner self in heart.
