The Complicated Love #2

Honesty That Pain

"Mother ... The handsome Papa ...!"

All eyes are on Kiano. Especially Saka, she had previously met Kiano while in Riana's shop. From the very beginning he had felt something strange about this child, he felt so close and foreign.

"Mother .. We have guests?" asked Kiano innocently. While everyone was still fixated by Kiano's sudden presence there.

"Dear baby. Kiano ..." Riana's speech was cut off. His throat was choked, as if there were drooping seeds blocking when he wanted to talk. It was too heavy to get out of Riana's lips, telling Saka the truth as well on Kiano.

"Hello ... Who's this little whiz baby?" ask Saka to Riana.

Again Saka's affectionate call to Riana made everyone speechless a thousand discussed. Sheril, who was sitting slightly apart from them, seemed to wipe the water coming out from the corner of her eyes.

Shena saw all the events were very pitying on Sheril. Though it was not the woman's fault, it all started because her mother wanted Sheril to marry Saka.

"He ... he's Kiano, your son Saka." Mama Saka just said without taking into account there are many hearts that will feel pain. There is no morality, Mak one. (Jeez author esmosi 🤭)

"WHAT? A KIANO? KIANO IS ALREADY THIS BIG?" Saka's eyes looked at everyone who was there. Especially to Riana and her mother.

Seeking answers to the truth of the words spoken by her mother. Sheril can't see all the drama in the room, she chooses to get out of there without anyone's knowledge.

Sheril stared intently at her mother. This time, her mother was too bad. He stomped his feet and followed Sheril.

"Riana is that true?" ask Saka.

"Dad, it's Kiano. She's grown up now, she's 6. Next year he's in elementary school."

"Ttu .. ttunnggu ... I left Kiano on business and it's only been a few days. How could Kiano have been that big?"

"No, Mas. You've been gone for about six years. Kiano was born when you left us. Even Kiano and I thought you were dead. I even participated in your funeral. Crying over a corpse that doesn't belong to anyone."

Saka's face stiffened. He really did not think that what Riana said was true. As he remembered, he had only been away for a few days and he had an accident and went home when his condition had improved.

"If you want to know the truth, you can ask your own mother. He's the one who knows how you can come back to life and I'm kicked out of your house."

Saka was no less surprised, he did not know about the story at all.

"Aac .. I don't know about that Riana. I just know you're still my wife and Kiano is my son."

"Mother ... Who is Om?" Kiano suddenly interrupted their conversation.

"Darling ... Remember you never told Kiano what? Can't interrupt an adult's conversation."

"Sorry, Mother ..."

"Darling ... join papa yuk! We're playing inside." Tefan chose not to interfere with Riana and Saka's current affairs. Let them solve their problems from heart to heart so that everything can go well.

Shena did the same thing to Mama. She forced her mother to leave Saka and Riana there alone.

Although her mother refused a little, but this time Shena did not want to give up again. Now, Saka and Riana live in the room. Saka did not understand why the people on the go left them alone.

"Saka, listen to me now. Maybe this is the best time to talk from heart to heart. About the reality that actually happened for a couple of years we didn't meet. Since you were declared dead, I can only be forced to accept the circumstances. Your mother accused me of being the cause of your accident. Considered a pesky carrier while I was still devastated and sad. It is heavy and not all women are strong and can live it. If it wasn't for remembering I still had Kiano, I might have left this world in the first place. I can't blame your mom either. All parents want the best for their children."

Riana conveyed all her uneg-uneg to Saka. Something that had been a thorn in his flesh. True, it is not easy to live life with a single parent status. Not to mention the skewed allegations about the status of the widow he held.

"Sorry .. sorry I didn't know about it. I don't remember anything Riana. What about our wedding?"

"About that .. I .. I'm married to Tefan."

"WHAT??? No Riana, you're still my wife. I never divorced you, please forgive me ...."

"I'm sorry it's such an easy thing, Mas. But not all the painful scars I've ever felt before can just disappear. I never blame you, I've even accepted every circumstance that happened. Therefore, I also hope that you can accept all of this reality."

"You hate each other, how can you get married?"

"Everyone deserves to be good and change for himself. Tefan has proven that he has changed, I have never had a problem between me and him. We buried it all deeply. I know Tefan not only for a year or two. I've known him for decades, I know how Tefan is."

"Then what about me Riana?"

"You already have Sheril, Mas. She's your wife."

"Who said Sheril was my wife? She's just an ex-boyfriend who ran off with the man who impregnated her. I can't marry a traitor."

"But she's your wife, Mas. You got married not far after you were healed. You can ask your mother and Sheril. You can't do that to him. After all, he is the only one who is by your side when you are sick and slowly gets up."

"No. not possible. I want you to remain my wife Riana." Saka kowtowed on the floor and clasped both hands of Riana. Riana flinching she didn't want to see Saka's face.

"Sorry, Mas. You can't behave like this. We are no longer husband and wife" Riana took off Saka's hand which was holding her hand.

"Riana .. please, I just want you to be my wife. I don't want anything else."

"Can't, Mom. We have each other's lives. I hope you can take it."

Riana stood up and left Saka alone in the living room. It's not that he's heartless, he just doesn't want things to get out of hand.

Saka continued to call Riana who had already left. Her mother, Shena and Sheril re-enter the house and find Saka who keeps calling Riana's name.

Great love will always last, even if at first it is just a fragile flower. Sometimes honesty hurts, but it's better in a relationship.
