The Shackles of the Past

BML - CHAPTER 134

Happy Reading 🌹🌹

A bright morning came, as bright as the morning sun. Kenan is preparing to leave the mansion, Ken is currently in the main mansion since he came out of the hospital.

With a light step Ken walked down the stairs, today Kenan will begin the mission of conquering the heart of the woman who will become the mother of her children. Thinking about the child, Ken was already impatient to stroke his wife's distended stomach.

Yes, although the divorce will still be done. At least Alice is still legally his wife. Grandpa Wijaya and the family who saw Kenan's arrival just stared in wonder.

"What makes you happy, Ken?" Kalevi asked with sharp nosediving eyebrows.

Ken just smiled knot. "Ken was just happy, because he was going to meet Alice." The answer.

Ken's words are not entirely lying, because it's true that Ken will meet Alice either can meet or not which is clear Ken will try first.

"You should eat a lot, Ken."

Citra immediately took breakfast for her son, as far as this image first Kenan will come to William's mansion after Alice went out of the mansion. Ken eagerly received the plate that was already filled with rice and side dishes.

Quickly, Kenan ate his breakfast this morning. In the brain Kenan had planned to go to William's mansion and go to William's fraternity. Kekek Wijaya can only stare at Kenan flatly, somehow the result is certain Kekek Wijaya support the struggle of Kenan.

Citra and Kalevi also only looked at Kenan with a difficult view to understand, under the table Kalevi's hand held his wife's hand that seemed to tremble and sweat. Whatever happened at William's mansion yesterday only they know.

The image that was unable to endure her cries, went first from the dining table. Kenan who saw his mother just stared in wonder.

"What's up with, Mama?" Ask Ken to Kalevi,

"You're just not feeling well, probably because you slept in the hospital waiting for you yesterday." Lying Kalevi.

"Today you went to the office no, Kal?" Ask Grandpa Wijaya who ate his breakfast.

"Yes, Dad. Kalevi will be in the company until Kenan is ready to return to the company." Answer Kalevi.

"I'm sorry Kenan, Dad ... Grandfatherbiscuts. Kenan promised to bring home your daughter-in-law and grandchildren." Kenan said with complete confidence.

"Of course, you have to take responsibility." Reply Grandpa Wijaya.

Kenan continues his breakfast with Grandpa Wijaya, while Kalevi is done and goes after his wife. The brown door of the wood opened slowly, a woman curled up in her bed.

Slowly, Kalevi closed the door and locked it from the inside. Step slowly towards the wife, squatting to align high with their bed.

"Don't cry." Kalevi wiped his wife's tears.

"What's Kenan's fate, Dad?" Ask Citra in her tears.

The cry of Citra broke even more quickly Kalevi hugged his wife's body gently, stroking slowly the back of the woman who had been for decades accompanying his life. Indeed regret is always at the end, if in front then there will be no human who can learn from life in this mortal world.

Kenan had entered the black sedan car, started the car engine and moved to leave the Wijaya mansion area. Kenan tried to dial Alice's number, connected but there was no answer. Ken came back again to call hoping if he picked up but the same results.

Ken let out a long sigh, sending a voice note to his wife.

"Can we meet, baby?"

Ken stays focused on driving and occasionally checks his phone, afraid that Alice will reply and he over-replies Alice's messages. However, there had been five minutes of no reply from Alice.

The four-wheeled vehicle was in one of the flower shops, a small-sized building with light pink paint. The storefront filled with fresh flowers of various types and colors makes the eyes of anyone who looks at it happy.

Kenan got out of the car and walked out towards the store, pushing the glass door with a stainlisstell handle. A florist (a flower shop employee) with a plaid pink aprons covers the skirt along the knee wearing a white shirt welcomes Kenan's arrival.

"Good morning sir, how can we help you?" Ask her.

"Pack up the fresh white Lily flower." Answer Kenan

"Okay, please wait a minute."

The florist immediately walked to pick up the white Lily flowers in the store, following to become a unified unit with added green leaves to make it more beautiful and fresh. Cutting or trimming the ends of the flower stems.

Wrapping with pink and white tissue paper commonly used to make a bouquet of flowers. Employees seem very dexterous and expert in making bouquets of flowers. It didn't take long for Kenan's order to be completed.

"Can I add a message there?" Ken asked pointing at the bouquet of flowers.

"Can, Sir. Please select the paper." The florist immediately threw out a box containing hundreds of greeting papers.

Kenan took a paper with a picture that must be very liked by Alice, with a perfectly smiling face Kenan wrote words to his wife and child who were still in the womb.

After buying flowers, Kenan immediately returned to drive to William's mansion to meet Alice. Checking her phone back hoping to get a reply from Alice, but zonk. There were no incoming messages from his wife.

In fact, Kenan's forehead is wrinkled because it gets an incoming call from Selena. "What's this snake woman calling me." Ken said slowly.

Ken pushes the red button, rejecting a call from his ex-lover. Enough of Kenan's mistakes that have left his family devastated, Kenan will no longer be in touch with people who are in his past including Selena.

Calls kept coming in from Selena, as much as Kenan refused his call. Ken, pull over the car for a while to do something with his phone. Nampakk Kenan took out the sim card and broke it into pieces.

"Fuck you, Selena. Enough of me being the most bodo*h man in the world and losing Alice and my son." Said Ken who immediately threw a sim card fragment in the gutter.
