When the One I Love Betrays

KYKB 282

Because Shafa continued to cry, after Joseph regained his full consciousness. He stroked Shafa's cheek gently, wiping away the tears that had dripped down his lover's cheek.

"Stop crying, what a pity the makeup you wear. That must be very expensive...!"

Shafa directly hit Joseph and hugged him very tightly. Tangis Shafa even more sobbing again. Mbok Darmi who initially was very surprised by the quarrel of his young master and his trust bodyguard. Now more and more surprised again, because the young lady also hugged Joseph while sobbing.

Slowly, Darmi stepped back, and even left Shafa's room because some of Joseph's wounds had been cleaned and smeared with ointment.

"If you held me like this, in five minutes I would have been unable to breathe!" joseph said slowly.

Shafa realized what he was doing, and immediately pulled himself in, releasing his embrace from Joseph.

"I'm sorry, I should have listened to you and told you the truth. Whatever risk. It's my fault, until you get battered like this. I'm sorry...!" lirih Shafa while continuing to shed tears because he felt very sorry for what he had done.

Because of his anxiety and his fear of many things regarding his family these days. He made Joseph take the path of torturing himself to reveal the truth about his relationship with the man he loved so much.

Joseph drew a thin smile on his lips, Joseph did that to comfort Shafa. Although to do so Joseph felt a fair amount of pain there.

"Don't blame yourself, it's not your fault Shafa!"

"Who's fault???" a loud voice rang out in Joseph and Shafa's ears.

The two turned and looked at the door. Rizal Hendrawan was already standing there, with his eyes and face reddened he walked over to Shafa and Joseph who were on the sofa.

Every step of Rizal Hendrawan's foot that stepped forward felt like a drum in Shafa's heart. The more the steps were increased, the more the drums sounded very loud, and made his heart jump in fear. Joseph also lowered his head even more, he actually felt extremely guilty. But he also did not want to lose Shafa. The woman beside him had already taken half his life, how could he live without Shafa, without his life.

Shafa stood up as the father approached. He stood in front of Joseph. Shafa is afraid that his father will hurt Joseph like his older brother Dave did.

Shafa believes that even though his father is very angry with him, his father will never hit him. Because since childhood his father never played hands, even once. Even if it's just a little jewel or pinch.

"Surge Shafa!" rizal Hendrawan.

Shafa did not reply, he only shook his head quickly a few times.

"No dad, this isn't Joseph's fault! I was the one chasing him, I was the one who always bothered him, I did not let him calm down even though he had repeatedly rejected me. It's my fault, dad...!"

Davina who was standing not far from Rizal was stunned to the point of being speechless to hear what Shafa said. Her tears suddenly trickled down looking at her only daughter to such an extent. Davina closed her eyes and held her chest when she realized that her daughter had been suffering a lot. Even keeping such a thing alone, Davina felt like she was failing to be the mother who should have known what happened to her daughter.

Davina felt it was also her fault for not being able to gain the trust of her own daughter.

Rizal's eyes turned red, it was red now red again.

"So away dad says!" yell Rizal again.

The real Joseph was still very weak, trying to grab Shafa's hand. And try to hold Shafa's hand tightly.

"Surge Shafa!" joseph said slowly.

But Shafa still did not want to get out of his place. He didn't look back. He continued to look at his expressionless-looking father in front of him.

"Shafa, I beg you...!"

After hearing that hoarse and slow voice from Joseph. Shafa looked back. Joseph's face was really sad. As Shafa looked at him with an unwilling look, Joseph nodded slowly.

"It's okay! believe me!" joseph said slowly, really like a whisper because he was very weak after being beaten repeatedly by Dave earlier.

Shafa was still very reluctant to let go of Joseph's hand. But it was the man who removed his hand from Shafa.

Without waiting any longer, Rizal pulled his daughter's hand back to the back with a considerable distance. After that Rizal stepped forward.

Upon arriving right in front of Joseph, Rizal was seen to harden his jaw making his teeth cling to each other. Shafa who saw that was of course anxious. He even came back crying.

"Dad.. hiks... hiks...!" lirih Shafa who has been very resigned to the situation.

Joseph also still lowered his head, wanted to stand he felt unable. Guilt really made him weak.

"Bless your head!" rizal's strangulation made Shafa even more tearful.

Davina who felt very sorry for the princess was slowly approaching Shafa who was sobbing even barely strong standing up. Davina immediately embraced Shafa and hugged his daughter tightly while crying.

In the arms of Davina Shafa sobbed, while her eyes could not be separated from the father and the lover. Shafa doesn't want to blink for a second, he's afraid that his father will hit Joseph just as much as Dave is outraged at Joseph and himself.

Slowly Joseph raised his head. With teary eyes Joseph dared to look at Rizal Hendrawan.

Rizal's hand was raised, Shafa was already afraid not to play.

Plakk

A punch landed on Joseph's arm. But the blow wasn't hard. Shafa is stunned to see the father beat Joseph just like patting a friend who had not met.

Just like Joseph, he was shocked as well. Because at first Joseph had closed his eyes because he prepared himself to receive Rizal's punch. But he immediately opened his eyes when he felt that the blow he received did not hurt.

When Shafa and Joseph were shocked. Rizal immediately snorted in annoyance.

"Bas stupid, why don't you just say you like Shafa and Shafa likes you. Why did it have to be like this before you just wanted to open up to us?" asked Rizal with teary eyes.

Shafa and Joseph were still silent. They tried to digest every word Rizal said.

"Follow son of a fool!" rizal told Joseph.

Confused, Joseph tried to stand up. Seeing the struggling Joseph, Rizal immediately pulled Joseph's arm and hugged him.

"You're also my son Joseph, why do you think I won't bless you with Shafa?" ask Rizal again.
