The Sovereign of the Heart (Bern & Renata)

Bern 114s

Renata smiled as he watched Justin playing with the dinosaur family. The adorable boy sat down accompanied by his father.

"What's this called?" bern asked, pointing to one of the green dinosaurs. It looks like this is a new member because as Bern Justin does not have this type of dinosaur.

"Emm who is," Justin said as he tapped his chin. "Justin forgot, Dad."

"Who gave this dinosaur to Justin?"

"Uncle Reiden."

"Oh, I'll help you ask Uncle Reiden what his name is. I'm sorry if he doesn't have a name. Aye, right?"

"Name it Pororo, Dad. Funny,"

Jakun Bern moves up and down once Justin mentions the name Pororo. What else has his son seen this time? Pororo. This name belongs to his brother who lives far away from this city. Could something happen to Pororo or more precisely named Pamela?

"Pororo is the name of a penguin boy. Just give it another name, baby," said Renata idly holding up the conversation. It's funny to hear the dinosaur was named Pororo. Too sweet for the size of a monstrous beast in the T-Rax class.

"Oh, okay."

Bern continues to watch Justin searching for a new dinosaur member. Dissolved into his focus, he was unaware that Renata was beside him. Bern then tiptoed in shock as he felt a soft elution on his back. Instantly he looked.

"But what, hm?" ask Renata.

"Ah no. I'm just helping Justin find a name for Reiden's dinosaur." Bern dodged. He grabbed one hand of Renata then kissed her. "Is the dinner ready?"

"Renata nodded. "What do you want to eat?"

"You call me Mom and Dad first. I'll help Justin wash his hands."

"All right,"

Renata's cheeks slightly converged as Bern's index finger rubbed his lower lip. He secretly*lum smiled as he turned to go towards his father and mother's room. Thanks to Bern's explanation, now Renata's heart becomes much calmer. She had not thought much about the foreign woman who turned out to be her brother Amora. Renata tries to understand because however his face is claimed to be very similar to the girl.

Tok tok tok tok

"Dad, Mother. Dinner is ready" said Renata as he turned his head into the room. And once looking at the bed, his eyes immediately wide open to see the mother who was crying sobbing in her father's arms. Soon Renata ran in and approached her parents. "Dad, Mom why are you crying like this. What's going on?"

Seeing Renata's appearance, Nandira reflexively hugs him. It made him fall into the mattress with Renata position downtrodden body. Max, who witnessed this, tried to help. However, his hand was pushed aside by Nandira who immediately shook his head in his sign was not allowed to mess up.

(Oh my God, please never separate Renata from us. I couldn't bear to see Nandira go crazy. Help me, God)

"Mom, why? Did Mom have a nightmare?" ask Renata between confused and worried too. His hand moved slowly rubbing the mother's back which was trembling from crying.

"Hiksss, yes, Ren. Mother nightmare. It's so bad" replied Nandira. His embrace tightened as Renata's shadow was carried away by his biological family filling the head cavity. It feels like fainting. Dark, tight, also sick.

"What dream did you have?"

"Mother dreamed you were taken away by someone else. You and Justin left Mom alone, Ren. Sad mom. I don't want to part with you. Huuhuhuuu,"

Nandira's crying broke after she told a lie about her nightmare. Because the door of the room was not tightly closed, Nandira's crying voice came out. Bern who was helping Justin wash his hands seemed to take a deep breath. Without having to ask any questions he could immediately know the cause why his would-be-in-law was crying like that.

"No, Son. Justin is not bad. Maybe Grandma was crying because she was uncomfortable. Grandma is not well," Bern replied did not make Justin wrongly assume.

"Oh so yeah. Grandma's voice is loud too, Dad. Justin was shocked,"

Between pity and wanting to laugh because of Justin's words, Bern chose to go to the room alone. He didn't want Justin to see something he shouldn't see. Moreover, this boy had an unusual advantage. It could be bad to say something that makes her future-in-law more hysterical.

"Dad, let's go to the room. He said he wanted to eat. Why here?"

"Darling, can I ask you something no?"

Justin nodded. He then waved his hand towards the window which suddenly blushed. Bern who was already puffed with the oddity was just silent when Justin smiled while continuing to wave his hand. Looks like someone came back to see.

"What is Grandma Zhu?" bern asked after Justin stopped waving.

"Yes, Dad. Grandma Zhu said she wanted to see Mom, "Justin answered while playing buttoned up.

"Walking Mom?"

"Yes,"

"Then Grandma Zhu said what else?"

"none. Just wanted to see Mom, she said."

Bern swallowed. Is this a sign that the decision he took is the right path to bring Renata to his biological family? I don't know, Bern doesn't know. What was clear now was that he could only follow the flow of life. Because it will be as hard as his heart in maintaining the desire of Amora, the heart of instinct still said not to separate Renata from Mr. Kendra. Let God avenge the evil that poor parents have done.

"Dad, who's the grandfather who lives in the dark house?" justin asked while putting on a gloomy expression. "There's so much pity. Grandpa was so lonely, Dad. Can Justin please take her to play the dinosaur?"

Not even Bern's mouth asked Justin about Mr. Kendra, his son even first discussed. Justin is like a psychic.

"The grandfather's name is Grandpa Kendra. He is the father of Amora. Justin still remember Amora didn't?" bern's reply did not immediately tell Justin that Mr. Kendra was his grandfather. He was afraid that this child would be speechless which could cause many people to panic and worry.

"Still, Dad. Amora's sister is similar to Mom and her face is bleeding. Hiiii, horrified. Kak Amora's head hit the rock as it slipped on the riverbank. Poor thing, Dad."

"W-what did you say? Amora slipped into the river?"

Justin nodded.

"Honey, tell Daddy what really happened to Amora. He either slipped into the river or drowned with a car. There's no Aunt Flow?" cecar Bern shuddered when he learned there were other facts that happened behind the tragic events three years ago.

"Aunt Flow who drowned in the car. That Amora didn't. He slipped. Yes it is, Dad. Justin wants to play first, but Justin is hungry. Which mother is it?"

Bern's body was boneless when Justin said that Amora did not drown with the car driven by Flow. What's the matter? Is it possible that Amora got out of that car before the accident? My God, his son is really terrible. Bern limp now.

(Flow, what really happened to you three years ago?)
