The Sanctity of Tarnished Love

I Love You Ken

Ken blinked his eyes slowly, as he felt the warmth of the sunlight start to burst into his room. Ken pulled up the blanket that wrapped around his body, then he wriggled, and then got up from his sleep.

Ken glanced at the clockwork hanging on the wall of his room, it was already half-seven. Then he walked to the bathroom, rubbing his sleepy eyes.

Not long after, Ken came out of the bathroom. His face now looked fresh with water dripping from the end of his hair. While humming, Ken began to bandage his body in his formal suit. Then she combed her hair, and sprayed perfume on her body.

After feeling quite comfortable with his appearance, Ken now began to step out of his room. He walked down the stairs, and headed to the dining table. Her parents were waiting for her to have breakfast together.

"Good morning Ma, good morning Pa." said Ken with a big smile.

"For Ken." replied Mr. Jeffry while returning Ken's smile.

Mrs Ratih frowned, as she looked at Ken's face that looked bright.

"From yesterday Mama saw you were so happy, why?" asked Bu Ratih while looking at Ken.

"The hell Ma, I just don't feel that way." replied Ken with a wider smile.

"Don't lie, that attitude of yours changed drastically from a few days ago. Usually your face is bent, and you rarely smile. But these two days you're like that, why?" ask Mrs Ratih.

"Ma's falling in love." replied Ken casually.

"Are you serious? Just who, how do you keep your relationship now?" asked Mrs Ratih enthusiastically.

"Just pray, Ma, that he will soon receive my love." replied Ken, winking one eye.

"Who is Ken, tell Mama what his name is" said Mrs Ratih.

"Later Ma, I'll bring her here and introduce her to Mama" Ken said with a smile.

"Don't be long, you've grown up Ken, it's time for you to get married. You know, Papa and Mama are already impatient to pet the grandson." said Mr. Jeffry while sipping his black coffee.

"Yes Pa, soon also have a grandchild." replied Ken with a grin.

"What do you mean Ken? Don't be so reckless!" said Bu Ratih in a slightly high tone.

"If hanging out do not cross Ken's line, do not make a disgrace that will tarnish the good name of the family." said Mr. Jeffry.

"Yes, after all Mama also does not want if Mama's grandchildren have to be stranded out there. Don't be so reckless Ken!" said Bu Ratih while looking at Ken sharply.

Ken lowered his head, should he now say everything, as to what it had to do with Dusk.

His parents used to love Dusk a lot, but after the woman got married, their views on Dusk began to change. Somehow their response now, if they know that Dusk is pregnant with children

"Ken!" call Mrs Ratih.

"Eh yes Ma." replied Ken as he looked up.

"What are you thinking? Tell Mama what you're hiding!" said Mrs Ratih.

Ken has not answered, he is still busy arranging his heart

"Senja has not been able to accept me now. If I tell the truth to Mama, I'm afraid Mama will force Dusk, later Dusk will even misunderstand. Let me talk later, if Dusk can open his heart to me." said Ken in his heart.

Ken knows how his mother is. He is an impatient man. What you want must be fulfilled immediately.

If he hears that Dusk contains his grandson, it is likely that Dusk will be brought to this house at that very moment. Because both parents are expecting grandchildren, that's why they often tell Ken to get married.

No, it's not a good thing. Later Dusk will be angry with him, if all that really happened.

"Ken!" shouted Miss Ratih.

"There's nothing I'm hiding Ma." replied Ken slowly, as his hands clenched the rice, and placed it on the plate.

"Yakin Pa."

"Listen Ken, don't let you do anything forbidden! It is a sin, especially if you impregnate it, and do not want to take responsibility, Mama will be very angry with you! Had to cry for a whole week, then Mama can forgive you!" said Bu Ratih while glaring sharply.

"Yes Ma." replied Ken slowly.

"Actually I'm very willing to take responsibility, but if he refuses how Ma. I couldn't force her, I could only wait for her, while trying to melt her heart. Pray that my efforts will succeed, Ma." - Inner Ken while looking closely at his mother.

"Ken!" shouted Miss Ratih.

"Why Ma?"

"You are the reason, spoken to quietly, but instead looked at Mama like that! Don't you really hide something Ken!" bu Ratih's.

"Already let's have breakfast, don't fuss, it's noon already! Ken if you really have anything, talk to Mama, and Papa. Don't be held alone!" said Mr. Jeffry.

"Yes Pa." replied Ken.

"I must have talked to Papa, and Mama, but not now. With the nature of Mama like that, I have to tell you this slowly. I don't want to take a wrong step, and then Dusk goes away from me." said Ken in his heart.

***

The hour hand showed at 08:00 a.m., Ken just arrived at his office. He stopped the car, and then stepped down.

But just as he closed the door of his car, suddenly a woman came to him.

"Good morning Ken!" greet Sella while holding Ken's arm.

"For one, why are you here?" ken asked, letting go of Sella's hand.

"I came to see you on purpose, but your secretary was very hesitant. He forbade me to enter Ken, you talk to him, teach me manners. He doesn't know what, who I am. I'd love to curse him!" sella grumbled in annoyance.

"He was just doing Cell's job, I told him not to carelessly accept guests. If you want to get angry, and curse, just get mad at me, don't be with him. He's just doing his job." said Ken casually.

"It seems I should be strict with this one chick." Ken grumbled in his heart.

"But I'm your friend Ken, I'm not a random guest. You make an exception dong same me." said Sella with a spoiled tone.

"As long as I'm here to work, not relax. If there's no interest, I can't serve you" Ken said as he walked away from Sella.

Sella opened her mouth, she could not believe the sentence Ken had just uttered. From what he knows, Ken is indeed a man who does not like pleasantries. But he did not expect, if Ken would be so willing to say such a sentence. Maybe it's time for Sella to take a bold step.

"Do you want to know what I'm really here for!" sella shouted in a loud voice.

Ken immediately stopped his steps, and turned to look at Sella.

"What?" ask Ken with ease.

"Do you really not understand Ken?" Sella asked back.

"If I understood, I wouldn't ask Cell." replied Ken.

"I came home from Jakarta for you, I came here to meet you. Ken you don't understand either, from the first time I met you, and until now, I've harbored feelings for you Ken, I love you. That's how hard it is to understand how Ken feels!" said Sella as she stepped closer to Ken, and stood right in front of him.

"I have no other way, you don't want to be sensitive at all. At the moment I do not want to lose again with Dusk. I'm willing to lower my self-esteem a little, just so you can be mine." Sella said in her heart.

"Wow amazing's. I didn't think she would actually dare to declare her love. If only the one who said it was Dusk, I would have immediately hugged him, and carried him around the office." Inner Ken while flicking his hair that fell on his forehead.
