The Light of Love Arion
CHAPTER 18

"We're going home now!" Bayu came and pulled the Light's hand.

"Cas easy first. Sit here, we chat." Arion shifts himself and gives an empty place between himself and the Light.

Bayu hardened his jaw to look at Arion. For him Arion was a great threat to him, as Arion's standing was now on par with him. "Yes, my wife. Don't ever come near her again."

Arion laughed. He was very relaxed in this situation. "We're not high school boys anymore. I can't snatch Aya from you with power like you used to."

Bayu clenched his hand.

Arion smiled slanted then he stood up and faced Bayu. "Wood, you must remember, the wheel of life is spinning." Then Arion stared at the Light that was now standing behind Bayu. "Have you not been able to make your wife happy until you were afraid that your wife would turn away from you?"

Bayu clenched his hand.

"Because if you've managed to make your wife happy, you can't be this possessive."

Bayu felt offended, his emotions were provoked. He raises his hand and is about to hit Arion but Arion manages to hold Bayu's hand.

"It turns out you haven't changed, still as emotional as you used to be." Then Arion brushed off Bayu's hand. "I'm back first." Arion turned his body and left Bayu. "Nindi, are you coming home?"

"Yes, Sir. Uh, Rion." Then Nindi followed Arion's steps.

"Now it's really cool Arion. Honey, I'm married." commented some of Arion's friends.

"The opportunity is still single. There's a number in the group."

Bayu's heart is getting heated up. Without saying anything he pulled Light's hand out of the cafe.

"Mas, I can walk on my own. Sick my hand."

Bayu finally took off Light's hand and he got into the car.

After Light got into the car, Bayu immediately drove his car. "Mas, you can't give emotion first."

"Well, how am I not feeling seeing you close to Rion?"

"Why? You're afraid I'm back with Rion? You took everything from me, I'm the one who doesn't deserve Rion. I can't be the same."

Bayu was silent for a moment. Emotions still filled him, he was really afraid of losing competitiveness with Arion. "You're still in love with Rion?"

"You don't need to know how I feel. You already have me, that's enough." Then the Light turned his gaze and stared out the window. He no longer has a choice. His life already had a set scenario.

...***...

"Rion, you're getting cool" said Nindi, who now sits in the front seat with Arion. "By the way, you still have the same feeling Aya?"

Arion simply fell silent not answering Nindi's question. He focused on the road he was on.

"Pak Arion, answer. Let me not hope that. It hurts to have false hopes." Nindi smiled a little. But apparently Arion was already immune to Nindi's temptation.

"If I could forget Aya, maybe now I'm married."

"Oh, my god. Until that deep feeling. You already have power, take Aya from Bayu. I'm sure, Aya still loves you."

Arion shook his head. "That's not the solution."

"But if Aya is not happy with Bayu?"

Arion stopped his car. "You know something?" Arion was now looking seriously at Nindi. "There is a restaurant, we eat first. You haven't eaten, have you?"

Nindi just nodded her head. When else can eat at the same expensive restaurant Arion. Free again.

"Nindi, please order anything, I treat."

The smile on Nindi's lips grew even more, of course she would order the fullest food. After that, the two of them returned to talking.

"So you know something about Aya?" ask Arion.

"Aya ever chat me, maybe so he stress it that time yes. He said, children are very important in a household, right? Her in-laws always cornered Aya, and demanded Aya to have children soon."

"Why is that?"

Nindi shrugged both of her shoulders. "Biasalah, the in-laws are mostly that, not understanding the condition of his son-in-law. Keep what makes me strange, Aya also had time to chat if it was not his fault and..." Nindi recalls the chat Light. "Where else, I forgot. The chat was long and I deleted it. Then the problem is not in Aya, that's the point."

Arion can reason what Nindi means. "What else do you know?"

"Rion, so all this time you've really not been looking for info on Aya?"

Arion shook his head. "Since Aya got married, I haven't been looking for any info on Aya at all. I don't want to expect too much."

A few minutes later the food they ordered came. Arion was slightly stunned at the amount of food that Nindi had ordered.

"Are you really eating this much?"

"Quiet, it's over. If it doesn't end, I'll ask for a pack. Not going to waste."

Arion shook his head then he brought his cold drink closer.

"So you don't know, that Aya's family is bankrupt. His father Aya died of a heart attack and his mother was depressed and was admitted to a mental hospital because Bayu and his family did not want to help care for Mama Aya."

Arion is shocked to hear Nindi's story. "Seriously?"

Nindi nodded her head. He started eating and occasionally talking. "From the news I heard, Aya's family company was owned by Bayu's family and will now be sold to Bayu's family."

"Why is that? Not that Aya was married to Bayu because Bayu's family helped his Papa Aya's company."

Nindi shrugged both of her shoulders. "I don't know either, which I obviously feel sorry for Aya. He has no freedom and what Aya has taken all the same Bayu family. I believe, karma is real, after Aya's parents insult you all out they can immediately get a reply."

"But I never swear they're bad. I just want Aya to be happy with her parents' choice."

Nindi shrugged her shoulders again while eating her food voraciously. "Eat first, let there be energy to think."

"So all this time Aya wasn't happy?"

"I don't know, I don't know exactly how Aya lived either. Just from the children's story and a little bit of Aya aja. But from that story you can draw your own conclusions."

"If it's like that, I have to help Aya. But how is it going?"

"Google check, look for special tips to snatch people's bini."

Instantly Arion touched Nindi's forehead. "What do you mean?"

"Oh, sick, yeah." Nindi rubbed her forehead.

"It's actually Rion."

Hearing that voice, Arion and Nindi looked up and they were both shocked. "Loh, Mama," said Arion and Nindi simultaneously.
