THE ENTERTAINER

CHAPTER 10

“Master, why did you choose me every time you came here?” Naya asked timidly towards Noah who had been almost ten days asking himself to accompany her.

“Why? You don't like it?”

“Not so, Mr.”

“You should thank me. I became your regular customer, and your husband's debt paid off a little, ” he replied, holding a drink from his crystal glass.

Naya lifted her face with a gasp. “How do you know, I have a husband with a lot of debt?”

Instead of answering, Noah laughed. “Nothing I don't know, Darling.”

Noah now pulled Naya into his arms and passed a short string from both of Naya's shoulders. Naya closed her eyes. He is always lulled by Noah's kiss, even though there is no love there. Just to finish the passion of an adult man.

...----------------...

“Ra, today I go home first, yes. I want to check on my husband,”, Naya said after folding her clothes and putting them in a small bag.

“Nay, remember. Don't be late again. I don't want to see you slapped again like last time.”

Naya nodded with a smile.

“Kak Naya, be careful, yes.” Rose who was reading Clara's novel smiled at her.

Naya nodded and returned Rose's smile. Naya is grateful, Rose has started to accept her destiny. Even though Rose still cries every night.

After requesting permission from Mira, Naya stops the taxi and heads to her house. Once there, Naya again does not find Brian. After more than two weeks Naya did not come home, the house looked clean. Brian doesn't usually clean the house. After the departure of Brian's parents, only they are alone living in the two-story house.

Is it possible that Brian hired a maid? Naya skirted the house looking if anyone lived in the back room. But, empty. The room is still a warehouse.

Naya doesn't bother him anymore. He went to the kitchen and started cooking. Brian who still did not come home until five in the afternoon made Naya urinate. He actually misses Brian so much, he wants to be hugged by Brian. Therefore, he persisted not to leave even though he only had an hour.

Vehicles were heard coming into the parking lot of their house. Naya peeked at him from the window trellis. SUV class car with a new license plate, a perfect stop up front there. Naya frowned, Brian had no cars, all of their vehicles and assets were up for sale.

Naya is wide-eyed as Brian exits the driver's seat, and a woman he knows all too well exits the passenger seat. Yuki's. Best friend since High School. He had almost lost contact with his best friend. After marrying Brian, Yuki decides to go to college in another city, so he has barely heard from her.

Naya was still looking from behind the window. Why is her husband with her best friend? But, the scene before his eyes answered Naya's question. Brian kissed Yuki right on his lips with happiness. Naya pecked, her mouth wide open, her voice choked. Her tears fell without warning. Whatisthis? why do they .. Naya's brain seems to lose its thinking function.

Until the door of the house was opened. Brian and Yuki both had no idea that they would see Naya behind that door. Of course, the two humans immediately let go of their embrace.

“Nay?” Yuki was equally surprised.

Naya is not flinching. He is still standing in his place. Trying desperately to hold back his squeezing knee wanted to fall.

“What ... which is actual?” Naya's voice was disjointed. His breathing is very unstable.

“Nay. I can explain.” Yuki tries to step closer again, but Brian holds Yuki's hand. Then pulled Yuki back to stand beside her. Naya was shedding tears seeing that. He even threw away his face. His heart was like being sliced by thousands of blades.

“I, have been with Yuki for a long time, Nay.” Brian sounds.

Naya laughed in her tears. “How long has it been?”

“Since you killed our son,” Brian replied without hesitation.

“I didn't kill him. I'm hurt, too, Brian. Me too...,” shrieked. His voice is rattling. It's getting harder to breathe. His heart was sliced and torn to shreds with Brian's words.

“You are the cause of everything, Nay. I'm trying to hold on. But can't.”

“Then, what about me?! You think I'm okay? I'm trying to Brian, I'm trying hard for you.” Naya rubbed her eyes that blurred her vision. “Because I don't want to lose you either.”

“I know I was wrong for looking for an escape. But, I can't stand to see you, Nay .. I see my son, mother, and father who die every time I see you.”

Naya gasps. He did not understand that speech.

“Dad and my mother had an accident when they were going to meet you. You whine to meet them. I've already banned them from leaving, but, you said you were dying to see them. Why can't you be unconscious?”

Naya never knew. Her tears flowed back. He closed his mouth, trying to scream, denying it. But, it can't. Naya remembered the incident. After he came home from the hospital due to surgery. He wants to meet Brian's parents. Apologize to them. But it turns out that request was the cause of their accident.

Naya's legs were no longer able to accommodate the burden, she fell sitting on the sofa. His sight became unfocused. He remembered everything, very clearly.

Yuki could not see Naya who was already so messed up. He ran over to Naya, wanting to apologize. But, Naya reflexively pushes Yuki down. Brian was certainly surprised and immediately helped Yuki who was still down.

“You all right?” ask Brian with worry.

Yuki nodded while holding her stomach. Naya saw the interaction, Naya now understood, she could only smile sadly. A smile that was forced to come out because it was no longer able to rebel. Naya is now aware, she is the cause of all the misfortune in her family.

“How many months has it been?”

Yuki. He looked down, but Brian grabbed him.

Brian and Yuki both did not answer. But Naya could see that Yuki's stomach was still flat, she could predict they had just gotten the results. Naya no longer spoke. He wiped his tears, then stood up and passed the two humans who were still tightly clinging to each other.

“Don't be a plain pretender, Nay. You also sleep every night with a different man.”

Naya stopped her steps then turned around, Naya no longer cried, but her blood boiled in anger. His hand floated in the air and slapped hard on Brian's cheek. His palms hurt, a sign that he slapped very strongly.

“You sold me, Brian. You sold me there. And you know what? Congratulations on paying off your own debt. I quit.”

Brian even chuckled with Naya's words.

“You can't stop, Nay. Madam Riya will be looking for you.”

Naya flinched, how did Brian know who Madam Riya was.

“You can hate me for a lifetime, Nay. Because I will also do the same.”

Naya can't talk anymore. All his feelings for Brian either have overflowed. That feeling of love turned into hate and anger. Why does he have to be sold? Why does he have to accept everything? While Brian lives happily with his best friend?

Naya turned her face to look at Yuki who was still lowered, not daring to look at Naya.

“I hope you are happy. Congratulations on your pregnancy, Ki.”

Naya turned back to Brian who was still looking at her.

“Send us our divorce papers. You know where to send, right?”

Brian did not answer. Naya then turned around along with a piece of her heart that had been broken. Naya could never love anyone again. His heart seemed to have died receiving all the attacks and hits that night.
