The Sovereign of the Heart (Bern & Renata)

Bern 100s

"Sister-in-law, will you not go for a walk with me?" ask Flow while looking at the brother-in-law expectantly.

"Where to go, Flow?" sahut Renata asked. His sitting position turned his back to Flow making Renata turn around immediately. She then smiled as she found her sister-in-law timid as she was about to reply. "Don't be shy. Just tell me where you're going."

"Since last night I've been wanting to go alone with my sister-in-law. I feel safe and also calm when I'm with my sister" Flow replied softly.

"Why could that be?"

"Okay, I don't know either. But if brother-in-law is busy next time is fine."

Renata smiled back. It's true that now he's a little busy preparing for Justin's birthday needs tomorrow. But seeing her sister-in-law beg this, was she willing to refuse? Seems not.

"Emm it's two o'clock in the afternoon. How about we just take a walk around here. The weather is less supportive. I'm afraid your brother is upset that we're going too far. Hows it? Won't you?" renata offers.

"You, Brother. Mau," said Flow jubilant.

"Yes, please wait a minute. I'm gonna take care of this stuff first. You prepared. Okay?"

"Okay, sister-in-law."

Flow excitedly moved the wheelchair towards the room. He stayed at this apartment last night. Flow could not bear to leave his nephew and brother-in-law after yesterday's incident. Also because he felt like someone was holding him back from staying here. Very quaint.

"Dad, Mom, I'll leave for a minute. Flow said he wanted to go for a walk. Not far away. Just around here alone," Renata said goodbye to both parents.

"Ren, have you asked Bern for permission?" ask Max to make sure. "Don't forget yesterday's events. I don't want you guys to be up to nothing."

"No, Dad. After this I'll call Bern first. Poor him. Must be busy looking for a new home for us to live in later."

"Whatever it is you still have to ask permission first. You guys are getting married, and Justin's gonna have a birthday tomorrow. Don't let these two shows fail because you are a wayward not to listen to the words of parents. Understood?"

"Yes, Dad. Then I'll call Bern first."

"Yes there."

Soon Renata picks up the phone and then calls Bern. Her future husband was inviting Justin to look at the house they will occupy after marriage later. In fact, Renata has no problem staying in this apartment. However, Bern refused on the grounds that this apartment is no longer safe. Unwilling to argue, Renata obeyed what Bern had said. Who knows the choice of her future husband is the best for them.

["Hello, honey. What was? Everything's fine, right?"]

"Yes everything is fine. Don't worry" Renata said. Somewhat speechless as Bern scolded her worriedly. "Look, Bern. Flow talked to me earlier that he wanted to go for a walk. He said he wanted to be with me. Can we not if we both go? Not far away."

["Walk?"]

"Yes. Can't you?"

There was no sound from the phone after Renata said she wanted to go for a walk with Flowrence. Knowing that Bern objected to the request, Renata tried to persuade him.

"Bern, didn't you say the man who wanted to harm me and Justin was put in jail? Should everyone be safe?" said Renata softly. "And so does Flowrence. Mom says since Flowrence's been sick he rarely wants to go out. At the most, we will go to the hospital and to the park. And that can be counted on the fingers. Please let us both go. I promise we'll be home safe. Okay?"

["Darling, that's not the case. It's true that the criminal has been dealt with, but I still haven't calmed down if I have to let you go without me being with you. Please understand?"]

"Pity Flow, Bern. She was so hoping I'd go with her."

["Thank you?"]

"Flow your sister, who is my sister too. There's no harm if I don't care about him?"

Bizarrely. Though Bern hired a lot of guards to keep an eye around the apartment building, but why is the man still not calm as well? Renata was confused. Indeed, what is the background of people who want to harm him so that Bern must be wary of this? So curious.

"Sister-in-law, I'm ready. Let's go!"

Renata looked back when he heard Flowrence's voice. A second after that he felt de ja vu with the appearance of this girl who wore a white dres with a red ribbon on the shoulder.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" ask Flow to worry.

"Huh? O-oh no, I'm fine," said Renata stammering. He then cleared his throat when he remembered that the call was still connected. "Bern, are you still there?"

["Yes, I'm still here. What is Flow?"]

"Yes right. You want to talk to him?"

Renata immediately gives Flow his phone when Bern says he wants to talk to his sister for a while. While waiting for the two to finish chatting, Renata silently thought of a shadow that suddenly flashed through her mind. The ja vu? Why did this word seem to exert its own pressure on his heart? Fear, pain, panic. Waves of these three flavors were so intensely pressing on the inner. What the hell is going on?

"Sister-in-law, Brother Bern wants to talk to you" Flow said as he stroked his brother-in-law's arm.

"Oh, yes."

"I'll just wait outside, brother."

"Yes, Flow. Be careful, yeah,"

Flow nodded. As he was about to pass next to his sister-in-law, Flow suddenly stopped and held onto his chest. A powerful throbbing appeared there when Flow saw a strange shadow appear in the eye patch.

"What's wrong, Flow?" ask Nandira to worry.

"Emm it's okay, Auntie."

"Surely it's okay?"

"Yes. Biases. I'm in a sickness. It is natural that there is pain that likes to appear suddenly," said Flow reasoned.

"Oh, Auntie, why. If anyone is sick, tell us yes. Your parents could be sad if we couldn't take good care of you."

"Yes, Auntie. But I'm really fine."

While chatting with Bern, Renata continued to listen to the conversation between Flowrence and his parents. And in the end Bern allowed them to leave after leaving behind some very curbing advice.

["Remember, baby. You're strictly forbidden to stare at other men you meet on the street. Nor can you leave without taking the guards. I'd be very angry if you broke this rule. Understood?"]

"Don't worry. I also couldn't possibly let Flow be in danger. Anyway you just calm down. We will return safely. Okay?"

["I love you guys so much. Please stay fine until we meet at home. I love you,"]

Blusshhhh

Renata's cheeks instantly met red upon hearing Bern's words. Unwilling to be caught being embarrassed, Renata ends the call immediately. Before that he reminded Bern not to carelessly buy food for their son. Justin was very spoiled for Bern, and Bern never hesitated to obey all Justin's wishes. Renata was worried.

"Having dated?" ledek Nandira with smile evil.

"What is this mother talking about. Bern and I are getting married. No longer deserve to be called being dating," said Renata misbehaved.

"You're the only one who says that. Look at Mom and Dad. Even though we have grandchildren, we are still diligent to date. Aye, Max?"

"Your mother's right, Ren. Besides, there is no harm in going out with her own future husband," added Max did not miss the opportunity to mocked his favorite daughter.

"Hey, you guys are. I love making people embarrassed. It was yes. Poor Flow is waiting alone outside."

Max and Nandira compactly nodded their heads while waving as Renata stepped out of the apartment. They then return to their respective activities.
