The Unmissed Family

Crushed

'Is it just up here our relationship? Did all the work I did end up in vain? My God, is this the right choice for me?' Inner Anika, she tried to convince herself of the decision she was about to make.

'Please, hold me! I beg for the defense of this relationship, Rendra. Please don't let me go!' Anika spoke in silence through the look in her eyes. Yeah, well, he's not fully prepared, he's not even really ready.

After a long silence, Rendra finally opened his voice, "Well if that's your wish, I agree." His voice was slow and slightly trembling.

Anika's knee immediately became limp, she almost fell if not trying to maintain her body balance as much as possible. He really didn't expect Rendra to agree to it that easily.

Rendra's words were like a bolt of lightning in the middle of a hole awakened himself who had made the wrong decision.

"Well, from today on I'm leaving this house." Anika's voice shook then she picked up the suitcase that was on top of the closet and prepared her clothes to take away.

When Anika was still putting clothes in the suitcase, her hand was held by Rendra. He thought Rendra would stop him from leaving the house, there was a hint of pleasure that touched his heart.

"You don't have to leave this house, just let me go." Sure enough Rendra did prevent Anika from leaving the house, but that does not mean canceling their divorce plans, it makes Anika even sadder.

"No! I'm gonna keep going, keep being in this house is so torturous and stifling." Reject Anika then she continued her preparations.

Rendra just kept silent she noticed Anika who was putting her clothes in.

"I'm leaving." Anika said then after finishing, she just glanced at Rendra and then stepped away.

Rendra was eager to stop Anika, but her hand just hung in the air, until Anika was lost behind the door Rendra could only look at her.

Outside Anika's room passed by the Emperor who had just returned from school. The emperor, who saw Anika carrying a suitcase, asked, "Where are you going, why are you carrying a suitcase?"

"Take care of your clothes too Kai, we'll get out of this house." Anika replied without looking at Kai.

"Same Papa will be separated." Anika answered briefly.

The Emperor was obviously surprised by Anika's reply, his gaze instantly became blank and he retreated one step.

"Mama lied, right? Mama's kidding, right?!" The Emperor came forward and shook Anika's shoulder repeatedly.

Anika just kept quiet, her tears started to pour out. Seeing that the Emperor was able to catch everything that Anika said was indeed true.

"Please Ma, tell me it's not true." The Emperor limp to the point of falling to his knees in front of Anika, his tears spilling right then and there.

A moment later the Emperor got up he wiped his tears and asked Anika, "Where is Papa?" The Emperor glanced at the door of his parents' room and without waiting for an answer from Anika, the Emperor went straight to his parents' room.

Rendra who was still in the room was able to hear everything, he let out a heavy sigh several times he sat on the bed while listening to everything when suddenly the door of his room opened and the Emperor appeared from there with gambled steps.

"Pa, is there no other option but divorce?" Asked the Emperor softly, he stepped closer to Rendra who was looking at him with a look of despair.

Rendra just shook her head while turning her face and said, "This is your Mama's request."

"Even if this is Mama's request, Papa should be able to reject it instead of agreeing and just keep quiet like this!" The emperor shouted out his emotions.

"Aren't you guys thinking about Kai's feelings? Why are you so selfish!" The Emperor continued, this time his voice weakened he cried as much as he spoke.

"Sorry." That was all that Rendra was capable of saying, nor did he know what kind of steps to take.
