I threw my phone on the bed. Kayla just called me. Scolding me with a scathing satire. I'm so mad at him. Anyone does not want their relationship to be broken and broken. All because of him. Take me to the bar when I'm upset.
Because of last night, I couldn't sleep. My heart was broken when Papa said I should marry Mr. Reynand and would sever my relationship with Kak Baruna unilaterally.
Is this what will be my destiny? My God, I don't want to part with Baruna. Just wanna be with him.
Many times I wished in my heart that we would not part and he would forgive me for my mistakes. I took my phone back, when suddenly I heard a call coming in. Call from Baruna.
"Hello, Honey. Why didn't you pick up my phone last night? I said I'd call you again."
"I'm sorry, I'm tired and I go to bed first" I replied lying, but I cried all night when my secret was exposed because 2 men came.
"Oh .... What's the plan today?"
"I'll just be home for a break. My head hurts" I said lying.
"Have you taken your medicine?"
"It." I went back to lying.
"Do I need to come to the hospital to have your headache reduced?" Baruna's sister started teasing.
"no need. I'm getting enough rest and everything's gonna be fine."
"alright. Then you rest. I'll call again."
"Yes, Honey. I love you."
"I love you more."
The phone call ended. I took a long breath. Lying and reasoning to him. Really can't bear to do it. However, I also do not want to meet him if my condition is the way it is now.
The mirror image of the dresser revealed my shabby, disheveled, completely irregular face. Eyes that were swollen after crying all night, black like panda eyes. Not to mention when the little pimples start to appear so much.
I must be stressed! In a moment, I'm going crazy. In fact, I could kill myself in the face of all this.
The wall clock in the room shows at ten when Mama suddenly entered my room carrying a tray in her hand.
"Sheryl ...," she called.
"Hmm ...," I answered lazily.
Mama put the tray on my room's little table. I looked and glanced at the contents. A plate of food and a glass of water.
"Are you not hungry? Don't let your mag recur, dear."
"Just let it go, Ma. Let me die, you guys. You don't have to be ashamed of having a daughter like me. A child who usually tarnishes the good name of the family."
"Hush! Don't say it like that. Death is only God knows. You have no right to go before him" Mama advised, saying, "Mom knows your father is very disappointed in you. However, the rice had already become porridge. You think to yourself, is this fair to Baruna? He's a good guy. What would he and his parents say if they found out about this?"
Yeah, they're all good people. I don't deserve to be Kak Baruna's wife and be a part of their family. My heart hurts to realize it. All this time always pretend and put aside the thoughts of all those who do not know what has happened.
I was silent and could not answer Mom's question. Can only swallow the bitter pill of a mistake that I cannot avoid. Suddenly my tears came back. The thread flows like a rushing river. I'm sorry .. very sorry. Loving her too late. Though all this time he was in front of my eyes and was always not far from my surroundings.
"But my choice remains Baruna, Ma."
"There is no choice for you now" said Mama as she rose from her seat, "Mama stay first. Do not forget to eat. The food's been Mama's prepared at the table."
All of a sudden, Reza almost hit Mama. He was in a hurry with the smartphone in his hand. Then he showed me something. An online news that made me gasp.

Reynand Alex Pradipta–Main Director of Asyraf Corporation, recently\-known for having an affair with his half-brother fiancee–Sheryl Novia Cantika Kusuma who is also the first daughter of Kusuma Corporation. It is known that the fiancee of Baruna Adrian Asyraf has been doing the relationship like a husband and wife to conceive a child from Reynand. The source, who did not want to be named, confidently disclosed the matter with evidence of a confession video and a voice recording.
Kayla Putri Nabila–, a famous model and actress who is also the girlfriend of Reynand also gave a shocking testimony. The beautiful girl admitted that everything that happened was true. He told her over the phone while sobbing in a painful cry. Reynand and Sheryl have not confirmed the news.
If quoted on the news some time ago, Sheryl was also involved in the violence committed by Baruna to Satya–Employers from the Mahardika Family during a school reunion. He is currently in prison for kidnapping Sheryl.
I closed my eyes for a moment. Thinking and continuing to think, the woman had already started firing her weapon at the media. Making me die lice can't dodge anymore. It really made me and my family ashamed for a moment. The whole country will know how ugly my behavior is.
There was a ringing of the cell phone many times from an unknown number. I don't ignore it. Ignoring it is better than making it more complicated. Then the phone call stopped.
"It's already started" said Reza. "You're not going anywhere. Stay at home."
I'm nodding. Suddenly I heard a ringing back. A ring from someone special to me. Call from Baruna. I took a deep breath and threw it away many times. Glancing at Kak Reza who only nodded gestured to answer the call from him.
The raga shook violently looking at his name on the screen. My lips trembled until the stiff tongue could not utter a word. However, I still rolled my fingers picking up the phone from him.
"Ha-hello," I said.
"Tell me, everything the online media says is hoax! You're not like that, are you? You never did that, did you? You're not pregnant, are you, honey?" Three questions struck my heart. His voice sounded trembling and doubtful.
Tell me, how do I answer the question? How else should I avoid it?
I was silent not answering. Until he asked by asking for an affirmation, "Jawab Sheryl! Your silence is the answer. All the answers are yes, right?"
