Enmeshed in Love
Chapter 43

There was no other way but to tell Rena everything. Arfian tells the current state of Echa, about the memory loss in nature. Maybe that way Rena will understand and will not force to meet him.

Rena cupped her mouth with her right hand, holding back her stuffing. He didn't think what Ben did would be fatal like this. Echa is hurt because of her own biological father. Ben should know that, Rena went straight away without saying anything.

Arfian silent. Feeling worried about the situation of Rena. His ex-wife must have been devastated by what happened.

"maybe it's better this way.I'm sorry Rena..Echa. I have no intention of keeping you guys away." Lirih Arfian felt bad.

Feeling that his actions have separated mother and child, it is a very evil thing. But that's the only way to get Echa to be okay.

Rena desperately drives her car to Ben's place. He continued crying and apologizing to his daughter.

"forgive mommy baby. It's all mommy's fault." As if Echa was there, Rena continued to fumble and apologize.

Right now his feelings are very messed up. All this time he thought that Echa was fine, but apparently the little girl had experienced something heavy in her life.

Two hours passed, Rena was already at Ben's house. He just kept yelling while hitting Ben's chest. Liliana could not even say anything, seeing Rena so devastated made her feel pity.

"you have wounded our daughter. Ben's... Echa forgot me because of you." His shoulder while continuing to hit Ben's chest.

Ben caught both hands, the man looked at Rena asking for an explanation.

"what do you mean? he forgot about you probably because Arfian instigated it. Why blame me?" Ben said he didn't accept it.

"don't blame Arfian." Rena pushes Ben's body. He wiped his tears rough, things were really messed up.

Ben hardened his jaw, he walked closer to Rena. Gripping the woman's arm was strong.

"then you blame me?"

"yakk. because you've made Echa lose her memory." Bentak Rena.

Ben's hand was released. The man looked at Rena with widened eyes. Rena's remarks reminded her of the incident when she had a fight with Arfian. He swallowed his saliva, because the hard blow he accidentally did had made the girl seriously injured.

He does know clearly, Echa until entering the hospital and experiencing a critical period. But it never occurred to him that the little girl would lose her memory.

"are you. telling me the truth Rena?" Ask Ben.

Rena looked at Ben sharply.

"you hurt your own daughter, don't you feel guilty at all?" Read Rena.

Ben hush. Echa is his daughter but he has not been able to accept that fact until now. It's nothing, just feeling unworthy to be a father. He realized he was not a good man.

The quarrel between the two apparently made them forget the dispute that occurred at this time. Ben forgets about his anger towards Rena and Liliana prefers to leave both. He did not want to interfere with the problems they were facing.

"two hypocrites oh..God, why do I have to get caught between those two fools." He complained while coming out of the house.

Looking for fresh air seems to be better. Seeing Rena and Ben quarrel like that made her head just dizzy.

The next morning, Hanum deliberately waits for Arfian in front of his office. He wanted to talk to the man once more, because at night on the phone he could not say anything at all.

Just ask if Arfian is still angry or not. Apparently the man had forgiven himself and did not question the incident in his home at that time.

"Arphian.." Hanum immediately ran towards Arfian as soon as he saw him.

Arfian stopped his steps.

It's 8 and Hanum should be in his office by now. Moreover, he is a secretary, his presence is in great need.

Hanum shook his head slowly. Deliberately taking a leave of absence because he wants to meet Arfian. Want to go to his house he did not dare or rather did not want, his mood would be bad if early in the morning had seen Echa.

"Arfian, I want to talk."

"let's say it."

"not here."

Arfian sighed. Then call someone and say if he's going to be late, ask him to do everything.

"we went to the cafe." Appoint Arfian at the cafe in sebrang.

The two are now in the cafeteria, sitting opposite each other. Hanum looked very doubtful, he repeatedly opened his mouth but went back to silence. I don't know where to start a conversation.

"you said you wanted to talk, time wasn't much." Cetus Arfian made Hanum immediately say his intention to meet with Arfian.

"please don't cancel our marriage. Leon loves you so much, he couldn't sleep last night because he kept calling you. Arfian, I'll take Echa if that's what you want."

Arfian was doubtful. Hanum's words can be believed or not. If it's just a prank, don't expect him to forgive Hanum.

Hanum looked at Arfian anxiously. Afraid that the man would still hold on to his decision. Then everything will be ruined, Leon will be disappointed. Because Leon will be sad.

"just prove what you're saying, I won't marry you that soon, if your sincerity with Echa is still just a game." Arfian sternly said, "if you really love her then I will definitely marry you."

After saying that, he got up from his seat. Hanum bit his lip, Arfian's request wasn't really heavy. Just asking her to accept Echa, but for her it was impossible.

"think carefully.I'm gone." Arfian left, ignoring Hanum.

The man took a deep breath. Trying to give someone a chance is not easy.

Trings..

A message came in. Arfian immediately opened it, smilingly reading the contents of the message.

......Daddy's Echa, handsome Rega's om already home. Daddy work quietly. ......

I know that the person who sent the message was not Echa but Rega himself. The mood that was bad is now back. Rega can always make her smile.

"how's om? did you send daddy a message?" Ask Echa while eating her breakfast.

Rega gave his thumb. Today he's off college, so Arfian asks him to look after Echa while she works.

"hey, Echa. Ask Daddy to find a nanny."

"what's the babysitter?"

"uumm.. the nanny was a friend. yes.a friend who every day can play with Echa. but must be an adult."

Echa put the spoon on the plate. Staring innocently at Rega.

"what's Rachel's sister like?" I don't know why that name came out of Echa's mouth.
