Reynand PoVs


At half-ten I arrived at Mama's house. Immediately step foot and knock on the main door. The door opened, Bi Marni opened it for me.


"Is Mama asleep, Bi?" ask me as I step inside.


"Mother Aina is asleep. Dira and Mas Daniel are also in his room. Mas Rey's lips why is it blue like that? Struggling?" ask Miss Marni.


"It's okay, Bi. Just a small wound. It will also heal" I replied calmly.


"Aunti brought ice water to compress. Auntie's afraid that wound will swell tomorrow." Bi Marni walked into the kitchen.


I sat on the living room couch waiting for him. Not long after, he brought a basin of ice water and a washcloth and put it on the table.


Bi Marni squeezed the washcloth and was about to stick it to the corner of my lips. But I immediately prevented it.


"No need, Bi. Let me stick it," I refused subtly.


Bi Marni nodded. He kept watching me who was busy gluing and squeezing the washcloth many times.


"Auntie just sleep. I can do it myself" I said.


"Ehm .... Is Rey staying over?" suddenly tanyanya.


"It looks like, Bi."


"Goodoo. Kasian Mama, Mas, lately seems less healthy. In a week at least two or three times to the office."


"Yes, I know," I said. Every day I get the latest news from Indira about the state of Mama.


"Mas Rey's room has been cleaned every day. The room can be occupied immediately."


"Thank you, Bi."


"Together, my mother."


Bi Marni smiled, then got up to her feet leaving me in the living room. I sighed with my head up to the ceiling. Plans to speak tonight are running aground.


Ten minutes later, I entered my room on the second floor. The atmosphere has not changed with shades of blue decorating it.


Rebates. That's what I did first. Recall the chat application notification from Sheryl that entered my phone. Immediately I took the flat object out of my jacket pocket.


"Your content is destroying my future and Baruna's!"


I smiled lightly reading the message and hurriedly replied to it.


"Even if God wills, now you can be mine."


Not long after the message came back.


"Basic brash! I will never be your wife. I regret ever saying I love you. I don't know if demonic possession can say that."


I re-typed the message.


"Tell that to your father later. He told us to get married. Without you saying anything, I know you have feelings for me."


I sent the last message, but there was no reply. I took a deep breath and threw it away. Always thinking of himself. The shadow of the beautiful woman who was always dancing inside my head. Not long after that, he fell asleep immediately due to fatigue.


Sunday morning at 09:00 ....


Wh-tok-tok!


The sound of knocking on the door of the room did not stop. I opened my eyes. Get out of bed and open the door. Mom stood in front and hugged me.


I was silent for a moment and returned his embrace. Kissing the top of the head of the woman I respect most. Mama's head looked up at my face. Then the forehead frowned


"Who hit you?" ask Mama.


"Inadvertently hit the door, Ma," I replied lyingly.


"Take care if the way, '" he advised.


"Yes. I'm not focusing, Ma."


"Rey, stay here. Don't go again. You are Mama's child. Bad Mom's son. However, without you, Mama became lonely and sickly," he said suddenly. "Whatever, everyone, Mama. Just so you moved here again," added Mama.


"really?"


"Yes!" answer Mama firmly.


"I'm getting married to Sheryl. Will Mama help me get Mama's property to pay her family's debt to the Asyraf family?"


Mama flabbergasted. Seemed very surprised to hear me. Then he closed his eyes for a moment. A tear suddenly flowed.


"But Mama is crying? Is Mama not willing?" I noticed his face showing disappointment.


"Mama doesn't want you to be the villain. Criminals between their relationships" he said, wiping away tears.


"This is what Mama taught me from childhood, isn't it? Fostering resentment and compassion side by side?" I looked at his face.


"Be responsible for what you do. Baruna doesn't deserve a woman who's no longer holy." My mother hugged my body again. This time her tears broke. I don't know why. So many questions in my head. Until I forget how to ask.


"I love you, Mama" I whispered.


Mama took off her embrace. He looked at me with a warm smile.


"Mama will cancel your engagement to Kayla with Aunt Clarissa" he said.


"Thank you, Ma," I said.


Mama flipped her body away. I closed the door. My smile expands. My mother finally agreed to our relationship.


****


Kayla PoV's


I was about to leave the room when Mama suddenly entered my room. His face looked worried and disappointed.


Mama then said, "Kay, you have to strengthen your heart again. Aunt Aina broke off your engagement plans and Reynand. He said, Reynand will marry the woman of his choice."


I flinch for a moment. Swallow, showing disappointment. Actually I already knew the result would be like this and would always rely on Aunt Aina as a shield for my relationship with Reynand. However, if it is like this who else can be my shield?


"Who is that woman?"


"Tante Aina didn't tell him."


Definitely Sheryl! But, why would Aunt Aina be able to bless their relationship? Is Sheryl pregnant? The pregnancy news will be even better if I add it to my plan. I don't care anymore.


I approached Mama and hugged her while whispering, "Ma, I'm fine. Don't worry about me."


Mama returned my embrace. He looked at me with a smile, "You're no match for a guy like Reynand. There's still another better man who's gonna ask you soon."


I didn't answer. Grab Mama's hand and step out of the room. We walked together. Looking towards the middle room, Papa seemed to be sitting relaxed. We approached him too. Mom sat herself on the couch.


"Pa, I'm leaving!" pamittu.


Papa rolled his eyes. He looked at me for a moment.


"Reynand is not a figure worthy of my beautiful daughter. You don't have to worry about who your soul mate is just because that guy chose another girl, Kay," Papa said.


I nodded then kissed the back of Papa and Mama's hands alternately. Immediately walk out the main door of the house and into the car.


I picked up the phone from inside the bag, then called my Anita–manager. Not long after, he answered.


"Hello, Kay. Where are you? I'm on N television. Don't be late."


"Nit, I'm just leaving. I ask for help, make sure the recording I once gave you was released to the media business and entertainment. I don't want to know how. It has to be viral. If you can add it, she's pregnant now."


"You're crazy, Kay! You sure?" ask Anita.


"Yes, I'm sure. There was not the slightest doubt, but rather wanted to destroy the good name of all of them."


"Kay, if I have anything. You're the one who's responsible."


"Yes, Nita," I replied.


I immediately ended my call. Immediately look up Sheryl's name on the phone menu, then call her.


"Hello, Kay," she sounded uninspired.


"Wow! You're cool, Sher. Can get two men's hearts together" I quipped.


"Kayla, I never expected something like this to happen in my life."


"Friend eating friends will never confess. You're not my friend. Only a cheap woman has voluntarily surrendered herself to her friend's lover." I insinuated it with more scathing words.


"It's up to you to think of me as how. I don't want to marry Reynand. I don't want to. He's already ruined my dreams with Baruna–,"


"Can you still carry the name Baruna? A man who knows nothing about your affair. A woman who does not know herself. I'm sick of you!"


"Kay–,"


I cut off his words and disconnected the phone.


Immediately I stepped on the gas to drive my car out of the garage. I'm so cocky on Sheryl and Reynand, shameless wild couple.
