The Sanctity of Tarnished Love

Sella's Cunning Intentions

"Get me talk!" snapped Bu Rani while glaring sharply.

His chest up and down held back emotions. Ken's voice sounded quite loud, many pairs of eyes were staring at them. Bu Rani is afraid, if one of them knows her.

"I just answered Auntie's words" said Ken casually.

"But you have no right to talk about Dawn!" bu Rani's.

"Tante also has no right to demean Aya" Ken replied firmly.

"What I'm talking about is the fact that she is a lowly woman" Ms. Rani said, squinting her eyes.

"What I'm talking about is also the fact that Auntie, in fact, Dawn is sick with HIV" replied Ken still not to be defeated.

"Shut up! Once again you talk like that, I won't hesitate to slap your mouth!" bu Rani snapped while pointing at Ken's face.

Not yet Ken answered the clash of Bu Rani, suddenly Dusk was already telling.

"Ken already! Ma'am sorry..."

"Shut up! Don't ever call me Mama, you're no longer part of my family. And one more thing, I don't want to hear your voice!" snarled Bu Rani with emotion.

Then he stepped away, leaving Ken, and Dusk.

The twilight closed his eyes, the guilty feeling re-emerged in his heart. Slowly her tears began to drip, and wet both her cheeks.

"Don't cry! I can't see your tears." said Ken, wiping his twilight tears with both fingers.

Dusk looked up, looking at Ken's face before him.

"Thank you." said Dusk quietly.

"I'd rather see your smile, than hear your thanks." replied Ken as he slipped his twilight hair behind his ear.

"You still haven't changed" said Dusk with a faint smile. Ken is a man who is good at talking, and Dusk always loses to him.

"I haven't changed Aya, neither my habits, nor my feelings" Ken said seriously.

"Sorry Ken, I. I..."

"I know, don't rush Aya. Don't worry, I'll always be waiting for you. I will never turn away from you." said Ken while holding both shoulders.

"I'm sorry Ken."

"Don't apologize, I understand how you feel. Smile, I'm always here waiting for you!" ken said with a big smile.

Dusk did not answer Ken's words, but he responded with a sincere sweet smile from the bottom of his heart.

Without them noticing, there was someone who was peeking at him while smiling cunningly. That person is Sella. He smiled when he got what he wanted.

"It seems you will be disappointed, because soon your wait will be in vain Ken. I'm giving you one more chance, if you still refuse me, don't blame me, if I use another way later" Sella said, staring at her phone screen. Then he walked away smiling. I don't know what he's planning, only he knows.

The elegance of the sun began to appear at the foot of the eastern sky. The glow gives a golden color to the white mega-mega around it. It was still morning, the wind was still cold. But it did not stop the steps of a girl who was walking on the sidewalk.

The girl moved her legs quickly, but due to the high hells she was wearing, she felt a little trouble. Every now and then he glanced at the circular bracelet in his hand, already at half-seven. It's only half an hour away, and the distance to his office is still quite far.

"Basic taxi sucks, always ignoring the customer. If I can't just say it, then I'll order another taxi. Look out if I'm late, it's your responsibility!" grumbled the girl in annoyance. I don't know who he's talking to, because only empty air is nearby.

The girl further accelerated, but soon she was startled by a car that suddenly stopped beside her.

"Hi!" greet the man sitting in front of the wheel of the car.

The girl did not reply, she frowned in surprise as she stared fixedly at the man. It's like trying to remember who he is.

"You're the girl in the park, right?" asked the man, who turned out to be Dika.

"Yes Om." replied the girl with a smile, now she remembered who the man was.

"It looks like you're in a hurry, where are you going?" ask Dika.

"Work Om." replied the girl briefly.

"Where do you work?" ask the girl.

"Well, if I walk I'll be late. Want to book a taxi again, the phone even missed. After all this morning not night, he would not dare to do anything of the sort. For the sake of work it is okay though a little shame." the inner girl in her heart.

"I work at Emerald. You yourself work where, let me drive" said Dika as he opened his car door.

"Okay Om." replied the girl as she approached Dika's car, and then stepped in. The girl sat next to Dika.

"Where do you work?"

"I'm actually going to the Imperrium office, there happens to be a meeting there" replied the girl.

"Oh well." said Dika while driving forward his car.

Almost fifteen minutes into the journey, they were still silent. None of them opened their voices. Focused on the street in front of him, the girl turned her face, and stared at the outside from behind the car glass.

"May I know what your name is?" dika asked while looking at the girl at a glance. When viewed from the side, his nose looks so sharp, and his cheeks also look adorable. Ahh very sweet picture.

"May." replied the girl.

"May, but don't mention his name. Do I have to ask again, ahh basic woman, too fond of pleasantries." grumbled Dika in his heart.

"What's your name?" ask Dika.

"Anna." replied the girl while turning her head, and looked at Dika at a glance.

"I Dika, you can call me Dika only, or Brother Dika. Don't call me Om, I'm not that old. And also don't talk too formal, I'm not your boss." said Dika.

"What age is it?" ask Anna.

"I'm 32, not too old, right?" answer Dika.

"I don't think I called Om wrong. Mom said, I should call my sister for someone 5 years older than me. Then call om for someone 10 years older than me, if the difference is 20 to 25 years, I should call him sir. And if it's more than that I should call grandfather. And I'm only 21 years old, we're 11 years old, which means I have to call you, not sis" the girl said at length.

"Oh My God, it can be that detailed huh. I became curious as to what her mother was like." Dika's inner while scratching her head that wasn't itchy.

"Om mind, huh?" anna asked, looking at Dika.

"No, just call as you like." replied Dika quickly.

"If so, yes, I'm comfortable with the call" said Anna.

"Yes, it's up to you."

"Thank you" said Anna, smiling.

Dika responded with just a nod, and a slow mutter.

"Of!" call Anna, after a moment of silence.

"Hmm."

"Could ask for a little help no, I'm almost late. Today the boss invited me to an important meeting, and the files are on me. I couldn't reach him, because my phone was missing. This cooperation is very important for Mr. Boss, I don't want to mess it up. Please Om!" anna said quickly.

"Oh my God, this girl looks innocent, innocent, but she's actually very chatty. Her mouth is not as pretty as her face. But from the book I've read, the talkative woman is very reliable in kissing. Right, or not yes, ahh my brain so traveling." said Dika in his heart, glancing at Anna who was staring at him.

"Of!" call Anna.

"Yes, I'll bite her" Dika said as she stared at Anna's lips.

"Well! what does Om mean?" asked Anna while frowning in wonder.

"Eh ehm no, that means yes I will go faster, yes so." replied Dika with a slanted smile.

"Damn it, I said the wrong thing again." said Dika in his heart.

Then he stepped on his accelerator, and increased his speed.

Seriate....
