The Knight in Shinning Suit

(S2): Wedding preparations

Theoden entered the dining room. His entire family had gathered in the dining room including Lucinda who had always been absent to eat together. Lucinda did not dare to look at Theoden as the man walked in. Theoden sat down beside his father. The dinner was very quiet. No one is talking. Sometimes Theoden noticed Lucinda and Catherine. He knew they looked nervous.

After dinner, Theoden asked his father, Lucinda, and Catherine to talk. Lucinda and Catherine's faces instantly pale. They could already guess what Theoden was going to say.

“What do you want to say to us?”ask father.

“It's about mom.”

“Irene?”ask father.

Theoden.

“Mother died, from being killed.”

Henry was very surprised by what Theoden said.

“What do you mean that Irene was killed?”

“Iya daddy. Mother has been murdered, ” Theoden said and his eyes could not be separated from Lucinda and Catherine.

“Say by whom?”

“Aunt Lucinda.”

“Whataa?”hendrik said surprised and in disbelief.

Theoden then told his father about the suspicion that his mother had been killed by Lucinda and why Lucinda had killed him.

“I can't believe this,”shout Hendrik.

Henry approached Lucinda.

“You must have killed Irene once, because she knew your filthy deeds stole company money.”

“I'm sorry. I didn't mean to kill him. At that time I was very panicked, so I..”.

“So you killed him,” said Hendrik.

Lucinda cried and her body trembled.

“I'm sorry.I'm sorry.”

Lucinda knelt in front of her brother.

“For so long I have always been haunted by guilt and I deeply regret it.”

“You must take responsibility for your actions, Lucinda,”, said Hendrik.

“I'll pay for this, but I beg you to forgive me.”

Hendri just kept quiet and stared angrily at Lucinda and soon the police came to arrest Lucinda and Catherine. Hendrik was surprised that Catherine was arrested as well. Theoden also told that Catherine had been covering up Lucinda's actions so that she could marry her father. Henry was very angry with Catherine.

“You...”frequently angry.

“I'm sorry, Hendrik.”

“So far you have deceived me. I don't want to see your face anymore. “

“I beg pardon me and don't let them catch me.”

“I'll divorce you.”

“No.You can't do that. No,” Catherine said in a panic.

“Bring him!”hendrik's orders to the police.

“Let go of me!”shouted Catherine.

Hendrik held his chest and felt pain. Theoden quickly gave heart medicine to his father.

“Daddy is fine?”

Hendrik nodded and he leaned his body on the chair. He did not expect his brother and wife to do evil to him. All this time he trusted them both.

“I know all this must have surprised me. At first I didn't believe it either, but after seeing the evidence I inevitably had to believe it. Aunt Lucinda did have the heart to kill mother.I can not forgive her actions, because of her I have lost the figure of a mother.”

“I'm sorry, Theo!”

“Dad no need to apologize. Now it's all over. Mother can rest in peace, because the killer has been arrested.”

“You're right. From now on you should think about your own happiness. Your wedding will be in a moment. I hope you live happily with Kiana.”

“Sure, Father.”

Theoden escorted his father to his room and left him after his father fell asleep. He took a deep breath before closing the door.

🥀🥀🥀

Kiana is in a bridal boutique and is busy choosing a dress to wear at her wedding later. She has tried various types of dresses, but still has not decided which one to wear. Kiana liked all the dresses she had tried.While she was still choosing her wedding dress, Theoden had decided on the clothes she would wear later, namely white toxedo. Theoden looked at Kiana who was confused choosing a dress.

“Decide the dress you will wear later!’’

Finally Kiana chose a very short-sleeved dress with a little lace on her neck and hands, then she again tried her dress and showed it to Theoden. Theoden was fascinated to see Kiana so beautiful in her wedding dress.

“I love that dress."

Her face was red and her butler was also smiling.After she finished taking off her bridal clothes they both went to a restaurant for lunch not so far from the bridal boutique. They walked while holding hands and their faces looked elated.

They are watched by a handsome young man named Scott Foster. Scott is a schoolmate of Kiana's and has just returned from England. Scott falls in love with Kiana, but the girl never cares about him.

Her feelings for Kiana did not change and remained in love with her. He is determined that after returning to America, he will tell Kiana his feelings, but after he finds out that Kiana is getting married, Scott is shocked to hear. She did not believe Kiana would marry another man. There was such a deep sense of regret in his heart. He regretted why he had not fought for his love.

Scott accidentally sees them at a bridal clothing boutique. She sees Kiana and her future husband looking very happy especially with Kiana. Scott got out of his car and followed the two of them from behind. Kiana was still being spoiled towards her future husband and she was wringing on the sturdy arms of her future husband. Mareka enters a restaurant and Scott enters. He sat not far away from them, watching them.

Kiana and Theoden started looking through the menu list. He frowned reading all the menu lists there and looked confused and Theoden smiled.

“Have you decided what to eat?’’

’’But. I do not understand all the writing of this menu.I can not speak French,” replied Kiana while reading the menu.

Kiana put the menu list on the table.

“If you want I will choose food for you.”

“As of you only.”

Theoden called the waiter and ordered their food.Not long after the food they were waiting for came. Theoden ordered escargot and coq au vin for Kiana, while he ordered caille en sarchopage. They were looking really good at the food being served and Scott noticed everything.

“ Kiana, you look very happy. When you are truly happy I will let you go along with the man you love’,’ he said inwardly.

Scott started shedding tears. Theoden wiped Kiana's lips filled with sauce. Kiana smiled and her face slightly blushed.

“You eat like a child,’’he said while putting on a ignorant smile.

Kiana pouted, then Theoden ruffled her hair.

“Spend your meal!’’he ordered food into his mouth.

Kiana ate voraciously and in a few minutes the food was exhausted without rest.After finishing eating Theoden took her for a walk around the park while stabbing the breeze. Theoden clasped tightly onto Kiana's hand and took her a little away from the garden.

“We get there.”

Kiana looked at the direction pointed by Theoden and Kiana nodded her head. They began to walk among the dense bushes of trees.

They walked a little uphill and on the right there were lush trees and they began to penetrate the small forest. The sound of birds singing. Kiana looked around. There is a white spot of sunlight that is not fully able to enter, because it is blocked by a grove of trees.

Kiana started to recognize the trees around her. There are spruce trees, mangoes, and ferns whose very tall trunks rise to the sky as if to form a roof for the streets they pass. The sunlight began to be clearly visible, because now that they were both on the edge of the forest, the wind started blowing back and made Kiana and Theoden's hair twitch.

The sky and the open green field seemed so lit as if they were not colors in real nature. Kiana felt a beauty that was difficult to describe with words. He looked at Theoden and thought to himself and drew Theoden's face in the blue and green around them.

“The view is beautiful,’’kata Kiana.

“True what I said.”

“You often come here?’’

“Not really."

“Self?’’

Theoden turned his head towards Kiana and stroked her cheek.

“Whom did I recruit you to come with?’’

“Perhaps with your ex-boyfriend.’’

Theoden smiling.

“You are the first time I brought here.”

“Really?’’

“It's true. You are jealous if I invite other women here?’’

“I'm not jealous,”sangkal Kiana.

“Since the first time I saw you, when I stepped towards you and I was so sure I had found it.”

“Find what?’’kiana asked not understanding.

Theoden looked at Kiana for a moment.

“Ah is nothing. Forget it!”

“I won't force you to say it.”

Kiana put on a pouting face. He looked at Theoden. Right now Kiana was feeling the love in her heart, in her breath and in her every pulse. The love of a man she once knew and now the man has overturned her life, the man who has brought her untold happiness, the man who has changed her world more and more in color since her first meeting.

Kiana looked at Theoden fixedly.

Only with you can I feel happiness

Only with you can I live

Only with you can I be a woman

Only with you can I get through all the problems in my life

Kiana exhaled a long breath.”If only Theoden knew my true feelings,”whispers Kiana.

Theoden smiled gently and ruffled Kiana's already messy hair in the wind.”If only Kiana knew my true feelings, that I loved her so much,”whisper Theoden's heart.

“We'd better go home. It's already afternoon.”

Kiana clasped her head and they left hand in hand. They both went home with their faces still adorned with cheerfulness, unaware that Scott was watching them both.

“Now I'm pretty sure they love each other. I hope you are happy with him. Goodbye!”

Scott started the engine of his car and drove off.

🥀🥀🥀

Theoden drove Kiana to his house.

“You won't enter first?”

“No. Next time just.”

Kiana looked sad. Instantly Theoden felt dizzy in the head and almost fell down.

“Theoooo,” shouted Kiana anxiously.

Kiana approached him and helped Theoden stand up and placed him in a chair.

“Theo, are you okay?’’ask Kiana worriedly.

“My head is dizzy all of a sudden.”

“Theo, you'd better get some rest.”

Kiana looks so anxious about Theoden's condition and repeatedly checks his condition. The waiter brought a glass of water to Theoden at Kiana's command and with one gulp the water ran out. Theoden immediately contacted his house and told his driver to pick him up.

Masumi sat in the chair while waiting for the invitation to come. Not long after that Theoden's personal driver.

“I go first. Bye!”

Theoden stepped away accompanied by the sound of the closed door of the mansion. Kiana looked worried about Theoden.

🥀🥀🥀

The next morning Theoden's head was dizzy again and his face was pale. Before going to the office he took the time to go to the hospital.There he had to wait a bit long, because the patient was quite a lot.

Theoden from earlier kept looking at his watch and it was really too late to come to the office. He took his cell phone from his suit and immediately contacted Carrie, his secretary, if he was going to be late, and Theoden entered the doctor's office and complained of his illness,then he had to do various kinds of checks that took up a lot of time until lunch time.

Theoden just finished an examination at the hospital. He sat in one of the hospital corridors.

“Finally done too. I didn't expect to go through all sorts of examinations. I'm really late, surely my work there has piled up and Carrie will nag me.”

Theoden leaned his head against the wall while closing his eyes for a moment. Theoden got out of his chair and left. As he climbed down the escalator ladder, he saw Scott climbing the escalator ladder.

“Scott,”gumamnya.

Theoden kept staring at him until he went upstairs. Scott didn't realize Theoden saw it.

“What is he doing here? Has he returned from England? When is she back?’’

Theoden's heart begins to fret, as Scott has returned to America and he begins to fear, if the man will take Kiana away from him. Jealousy began to re-create his body. He knew that the man was the one who always chased after Kiana when they were in school. According to information Scott continued his studies in England.

Theoden looked back at Scott for a moment and then walked out. The driver was waiting at the door.

“To office!’’Theoden's orders.

Upon arriving at the office Carrie had been waiting for him and gave Theoden a stack of work. He threw his body on the chair and leaned his head on the chair and let out a long sigh.

“What are you less healthy today?’’

“It looks like so.”

“You'd better rest at home,’’saran Carrie.

“No. My work is still a lot and soon I will be preoccupied not my wedding preparations, so maybe later I will rarely go to the office.”

“It looks like you are not excited today. Does anything disturb your mind?’’

“I saw Scott in hospital’’

“You mean he's back?’’

Theoden took his head off.

“So that disturbs your mind.”

“I didn't expect him to come back here again. I'm afraid she'll take Kiana away from me.”

“You don't have to worry about that. Soon Miss Kiana will be yours officially.”

“You're right. What about Scott's feelings for Kiana now? Does she still love Kiana?’’

“Then I don't know.”

Theoden again let out a long breath.

“You know, I never let go of Kiana. Never will because he is only mine. Now you can go.”

Carrie turned around and left the office.

🥀🥀🥀

Kiana is busy with her wedding preparations . That afternoon Kiana and her mother went to the hotel to see how far she was preparing for her wedding and also about food. Kiana who is getting married to Masumi in 2 weeks is getting busy taking care of everything.

The two of them entered a cafe to enjoy lunch and rest for a while.

Not far from Kiana's desk, Scott was enjoying lunch and the man noticed Kiana's presence and his heart was pounding faster. Kiana looks so beautiful today. Scott had tried to forget his love for Kiana, but when he saw Kiana his love was still there. After finishing his meal, Scott approaches Kiana and her mother.

“Siang!’’sapanya friendly.

Kiana's eyes were wide.

“Scott.”

Kiana introduces her mother to Scott.

“Happy to meet you.”

“Not you still in England?’’

“I'm back. I heard you're getting married soon.”

“It's true.’’

“I congratulate you.”

“Thank you.’’

Kiana smiled at Scott and made the man's heart pound.

“Ah Kiana, turns out I still love you. Your future husband is lucky to get you,’’ he said in his heart.

“How long will you be here?’’

“I will stay here and will not go again To England.”

“Revealed so. You should come to my wedding.”

“Of course.”

“You didn't order food.”

“No. I just finished eating.”

Kiana returns to her lunch and Scott continues to watch her. His mother noticed Scott who was staring at Kiana eating.

“Kiana, is there still a chance for me to love you back and is there still a chance you will come back to me,” Scott said in his heart.

Suddenly Kiana's phone rang and her face looked happy.

“Halo Theoden!’’

Scott did not like to see Kiana's face happy to receive a call from her future husband .There was jealousy in her .

“Well I'll be there soon after I finish my lunch. Bye!”

Kiana saw Scott daydreaming.

“Scott, what is it?’’

“Ah is okay. I'd better go still have something to do. Bye!”

Kiana stared at Scott's departure with a puzzled look.

“Kiana,”told her mother.

“What's up, Bu?’’

“I think your friend loves you.”

Kiana was surprised by her mother's words.

“It's impossible. Maybe she still loves me. That was a long time ago. I already rejected his love when we were in school.”

“Mom is very sure of that. The way he looked at you. Maybe his love for you is still not lost.”

Kiana was silent.

🥀🥀🥀

Theoden was seriously typing some reports and suddenly Kiana appeared. Theoden's face turned radiant again.

“You must be tired of taking care of our wedding preparations. Sorry I can't keep you company.”

“You don't need to apologize.”

“What was your mother with you?’’

“Iya. mother accompanied me and we also met someone there.”

“Someone?’’asked Theoden in wonder.

“I met with Scott.”

Theoden's face immediately stiffened and hardened.

“What do you talk to?’’

“We didn't say anything. Just greet each other and I invite him to our wedding.”

“That's it?’’There was disbelief in his tone.

“Iya just that.Wait for you to be jealous huh?”kiana said smiling.

“No,” the answer is short.

Kiana was disappointed to hope that Theoden had jealousy.

🥀🥀🥀

3 Days later

Kiana and Theoden have not seen each other since their meeting in Theoden's office. They are both busy with their work – each. Theoden is busy taking care of his work at the office, while Kiana is busy preparing for her wedding.

“Welcome!”

“Theoden,”frequently surprised. “I'm glad you came.”

Theoden was still staring at Kiana. She misses the woman in front of her now.

“What did you come here?”

“I want to meet my future wife.”

“Only it.”

“Iya.”

Kiana frowned and looked at Theoden's astonishment.

“Looks like I should be home this afternoon. I don't want to disturb your rest anymore.”

Kiana led Theoden to the front door.

“Bye!’’

“Bye!”

Theoden got into his car and as he was about to drive his car, his phone rang.

“Good I'll be there soon.” [ ]
