Young Mother President Lian [Revised]

Chapter 6 - Heart Problems

“Lian prefers Lisa even though back then I already told her how I felt, even I love her, I consider her more than just a friend“

Jennie laughs at the stupidity that Lian was going to choose her over Lisa.

“And I can only be his best friend, the person closest to him, do you think it is fair? When she chose Lisa, Lian wanted me to stay as ordinary as our previous friendship, my heart hurt a lot, but what I could do but obey her wishes, because I loved her so much.”

Risa's heart was filled, how Jennie could endure so strong Jennie's feelings for Lian were so deep.

“Lian married Lisa anyway after graduating from university, I think the story of Lian and Lisa will be a happy story like a fairy tale, it turns out I was wrong, Lisa died giving birth to Kevin, Lian slumped at that time, Lian was, she blamed Kevin for the passing of Lisa“ Jennie looked at Risa gently as Risa's face stiffened.

“Lian didn't even want to accept Kevin's presence for months, she fostered hatred for her son”

How Jung Lian can be so mean to her son, Risa slightly distrusts Jennie, seeing how Lian loves Kevin so much.

“at that time Lian was just a man who loved Lisa so much, she did not want to lose Lisa just for the sake of strangers, a young man who was drunk in love more enjoy the company of loved ones, he did not want to lose Lisa, he even had depression for months, because of the departure of Lisa, during which I also encouraged him, accompanied him, so that he did not fall further down“

“Kevin becomes hateful impingement for losing Lisa?“ risa did not believe it.

“then what about now? Lian looks so fond of Kevin?”

“guilt dawned on her one thing, that no matter how much hatred she had for Kevin would never bring Lisa back, I made her realize that she was no longer responsible for her own life, but for her son”

Then where's Jennie? if Jennie had been so close to Lian, Jenny could have dominated the life of the father and son.

“I love Lian so much, until now, I've always been by her side, but from the beginning Kevin never liked my presence, because he thought I made Lian forget Lisa or her mother”

“can I ask you something?”

Jennie looked at Risa with such a hopeful look that she was so hopeful, she did not care if she became a self-informed woman.

“if I can“ Risa nodded, hopefully the request is not strange.

“please don't fall in love with Lian?“

Risa's body stiffened, Jennie's pleading face made her even more nervous.

“i've put a lot of hope on our story, may I wish a happy ending for me and Lian“

Jennie deserves it, Risa knows clearly that, Jennie deserves to be happy with her love for Lian, Risa is just a stranger who is among them.

“I'm not asking you to stay away from Kevin or anything, just one thing, please don't fall in love with Lian"

There is a greeting pain, but if you think about it again the pain is not as big as the heartache experienced by Jennie.

“of course, I will try to do it” said Risa with a clean smile despite her trembling heart

“you deserve to be happy with him”

From then on he had to keep his heart from falling on Lian, even though the vibe was already saying hello he had to get rid of her.

The night sky was so thick, the wind blew so cold that it made Risa shiver, she went home to Lian, she was going to go home at first but considering Kevin, Risa so undo her intentions.

Risa put her shoes on the shoe rack, some lights have been turned off, there are only a few dim lights that light up, it seems like the occupants of the house are asleep considering this has been eleven at night.

Risa took a deep breath, before stepping her feet towards the kitchen to grab a glass of water.

“where have you been?”

Risa gasped in surprise almost screaming, Lian standing at the end of the kitchen with her hands folded in front of her chest.

“go with my friend“

“until this late? where?”

Risa took the glass and filled it with cold water, she glanced at Lian from the corner of her eyes, the man was wearing gray sleeping pajamas, since when did Lian like to wear pajamas?

Risa shook her head, why should such a question arise.

“i don't think I have an obligation to explain where I'm going and with whom“

Risa kept the glass she was wearing, thinking how to get past Lian.

Lian gave up, it seemed like Risa was as deep as the bad atmosphere seen from her face that had been bent since, even the girl took a deep breath many times. “tomorrow I hope you want to be my partner go to the wedding reception Bisma“

Risa just fell silent, there was a look of disbelief on her face. “I promised I would go with my friend“

“ alright, go sleep“

Lian left Risa in silence not wanting to continue her invitation or just ask with a friend where Risa went, the man did not even turn around to step wide leaving the kitchen.

Risa's body slumped to the floor, hugging her knees tightly until a soft sobbing sounded.

The next day...

Early in the morning Risa had already cooked for Kevin and Lian's breakfast, the servants only helped her cut some vegetables and other small things, the smoke billowing from the soup pot gave off a pungent aroma, the, Risa had already tasted it she just needed to serve it at the dining table.

“Mother...” Kevin's voice rang out from outside the kitchen, Risa turned off her stove, she told some servants to tidy up the rest of her work in the kitchen.

After opening the appron, Risa walked towards the direction where Kevin was, in the pajamas of Kevin's rabbit motif leaning on the sofa with her hands gently poking her eyelids.

“Mother...” repeat Kevin saw Risa take a step to sit next to him, her voice a little hoarse like the sound of people waking up.

“hm?”

risa's arms tightly hugged the six-year-old, Kevin is not her son but somehow Risa felt she had known him for a long time.

“go to the playground tomorrow?“ kevin asked with pursed eyes, he sucked his head into Risa's shoulder, trying to find awareness as the rest of the sleepiness reluctantly went away.

a gentle smile was seen on Risa's face

“of course!“

“I will go to dinner with Jennie later“ said Lian who suddenly appeared in the living room, her hands were busy buttoning the sleeves of a shirt, a circular rolex watch right on Lian's wrist, at 9 am and today is Saturday, where will Lian go so early?

Risa does not know what to say, her lips like tightly sewn reluctant to say, what she really wants, when her mouth allows Lian with Jennie and then why her heart hurts, like something was holding him in the bottom of his heart.

“you don't come home too late!" continued Lian, the tip of her eyes glanced at Kevin who was asleep back in Risa's arms comfortably, she said,

‘Then you alone? Are you going to spend the rest of your night with Jennie?‘

“I'm no longer a child, I know when I should go home!“ finally the row of words was able to come out of his mouth as a form of confrontation if Lian was not in the territory able to organize herself.

Risa's phone screen on indicates there is an incoming message, immediately her eyes diverted staring at the row of words that adorn the phone screen.

‘if Lian likes you, it's because you look so much like Lisa, what she wants isn't Risa, but Lisa, it's sad isn't it? Liked for being the shadow of others' By : XXXXXXX

Risa's forehead was lifted reading the message, who was it, who sent it a message like this? It was undeniable that there were scratched wounds reading that line of words.

“you are not a child!“ said Lian, her sapphire looked at Risa's face that suddenly bent, something happened.

Lian was sure of that, it felt like asking, why? are you all right? But the question could only be wrapped around the tip of his tongue without being thrown.

“but you're a woman will be very dangerous if you go home late“

“aku go“

before leaving Lian approached Kevin who was in Risa's arms, bowing his head just to give a kiss to Kevin, Risa breathed fretfully as the strands of hair tickled her chin, hopefully Lian can't hear her heartbeat echoing the unrest.

Risa's phone kept ringing, she was still busy with the cookie dough she was making with Kevin.

“ Hello “ Risa put her phone on her ear, while her hand led Kevin to sit on the chair, giving Kevin a cookie print, so he could make the dough as he pleased.

“can't be Kim Keira, I don't think I'll have time to go to the salon first“

it's two o'clock in the afternoon and it won't be enough time if she has to go to the salon first, after all she doesn't have to make up too prominently, Keira invites him to go to the salon for treatment before going to her boss' wedding reception.

“Ya, you go alone“

Risa pursed her lips to hear Keira complain because her boyfriend would not accompany her.

“Lian will go with Jennie“

Risa lowered her head for a moment smiling bitterly as Keira commented on her foolishness letting Lian go with Jennie.

“I will go with Johan, he said his business is finished early quickly, so at seven o'clock tonight he can pick me“

“ya, see you“

After hanging up her phone Risa starts helping Kevin form cookies.

“why star shape all?”

“because I like stars, they shine so bright at night,” Kevin looks focused on arranging choco chips on the printed dough.

“that time my friend went to the Planetarium, can we go there? I'd like to see an awesome line of paradise“

“maybe we set the schedule later okay?“ kevin's lips curled up, his face nodding enthusiastically.

“of course“
