The Cruel Destiny

SIXTIETH

Bad things happened again to Roger in the midst of his chaos that occurred in AXA Group.

Gibson, who was treated at the Alteza hospital, was pronounced dead, apparently too shocked that his health continued to decline and in the end he gave up and accepted his fate of death.

Because of this inevitably Arion finally had to go home to the mansion to join the funeral of the grandfather.

In the afternoon, when the funeral is over, Arion intends to return to his friend Ezra's place. But when Arion is about to go up to the second floor to his room, he unexpectedly runs into Elmira.

"A–rion,," said Elmira, as the girl hesitated to greet her brother.

"Oh,, El, how are you?" asked Arion who also looked surprised.

He looked at Elmira who was now able to walk with the help of a cane, and it seemed that soon his legs would return to their original condition.

There was a twinkle of longing in their eyes and it seemed that they wanted to hug each other, but they tried not to do so.

"How are you?" asked Elmira.

Arion nodded his head, "My news is also good El, you recover quickly yes," he said.

"Yes Rion, I can't wait to get back to college" Elmira said with a faint smile.

"Yes El, that's why it's healing" Arion replied "Yes I'm going to the room first." Arion was about to walk away but stopped when he heard Elmira's question.

"You want to go again? if my presence bothers you let me get out of here" Elmira said softly.

"Hey, don't say that, you have every right to stay here. Even if I leave here it's because I want to live independently out there, you also have the right to inherit all the wealth that Papa El has, so stay here," arion said with a reassuring tone, then he stepped away leaving Elmira who could only be silent.

Elmira was still glued in place until then passed by Roger who was about to go to the second floor.

The man seemed indifferent to the presence of Elmira, he felt that the presence of the girl indeed brought bad luck in his life.

The girl did not say anything, as long as she lived in the mansion even though she had never spoken to the man who became her father.

Then with a slow sigh Elmira walked towards the room with the help of a cane.

Roger knocked on the door of his son's room and without waiting for an answer he immediately opened the unlocked door.

Arion who was packing clothes stared cynically at the man who had just arrived.

"Where are you going?" asked Roger as he approached.

"It's none of your business" replied Arion who seemed reluctant to call Roger papa.

"Why did you reveal to the public that Elmira was your brother? don't you know what the consequences of your actions are?" asked Roger to the point, he ignored Arion's seemingly unfriendly attitude.

Hearing Roger's question that seemed to have no guilt in the slightest on his twin brother, Arion stopped his activities and turned to look sharply at his Papa.

"Didn't you know? as a result of your actions, our company suffered losses of up to billions of rupiah, do you want to make our company bankrupt, huh?," joked Roger without caring for the expression of his son who was desperately holding back anger.

"Is that all that's on your mind? don't you feel guilty for Elmira? on the princess you've been ignoring for years," Arion looks so angry at Roger.

For a moment the middle-aged man fell silent as he looked at Arion with a difficult to decipher gaze.

"Until any time your only son is Arion, remember that!," replied Roger firmly, then without waiting for an answer from Arion he passed away from his son's room.

Roger's ear still had heard the sound of a glass in the banging from the direction of Arion's room, but he was indifferent to it and his heart still remained unwilling to acknowledge Elmira as his daughter.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

But unfortunately so far Roger still does not want to accept the presence of Elmira, he still put his cynical face on the girl.

Especially after Arion left the mansion again, Roger considered it all because of the presence of the girl.

While Hart chose to return to his home in the village, although he felt hard to leave Elmira who had been considered like his own son. But because he no longer wanted to interfere in the conglomerate's family affairs, he finally chose to return to the village and told Elmira that the girl could come at any time to meet him.

Another thing happened with Dance, since the incident she did not care about her husband anymore. Especially after his father-in-law died, he also increasingly dared to express his opinion to Roger without fear of getting reprimanded as before.

Like tonight, when the two of them in the room Dance again reminded her husband that Elmira was his daughter, and the man should have behaved like a father and not even be indifferent and cynical.

"I told you, I don't want to acknowledge her as my daughter. I only have one son, Arion," said Roger emphatically.

"No matter how you argue with her, she's still your flesh and blood, she's your daughter who was born from my womb" she replied.

"Come, if you think she's your daughter, go ahead. But don't tell me to do the same with you, because to me he's just an unlucky carrier."

After saying so Roger walked out, he undoes his intention to sleep in the room with his wife and prefers to sleep in her study.

Seeing this, Tari could only sigh violently.

"Based on a stubborn man," muttered Tari as she laid her body on the bed.

The woman did not realize that the brief quarrel was heard by Elmira who was about to meet her, but the girl's steps stopped when she heard her father and mother quarreling. Then he rushed away when he realized that his papa was about to come out of the room.

*

Elmira sat on her bed with tears in her eyes, her ears clearly hearing the words of her father who said that he was the unlucky carrier.

"Hiks–hiks–hiks ,,,"

Just a sobbing sound in the room, occasionally Elmira hit her chest softly that felt tight.

"Why? why does papa hate me so much? am I really the son of the unlucky bearer?" muttered Elmira in between her sobs.

"Lord, what's my fault? why is my life like this?."

Elmira hugged both knees while leaning on her bed, her tears still running down her cheeks. For some reason he suddenly felt so tired, tired of the bitter reality that constantly befell him.

Until then he unconsciously fell asleep in a leaning position.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
