The Simpang Jalan
Chapter 57

The private driver who used to drive Rachel to school, tonight she got an impromptu assignment to take her employer to her parents' house. Along the way Kia hugged Luna who suddenly became quiet. Kia could not say much she occasionally rubbed Luna's back.

At the residence of both of their parents. They were warmly welcomed by Mr. Herman and Fuza.

"Rachel darling, we're staying tonight at the oma house, yes" Kia said.

"Yes mother, just as my mother would."

"Kia, you're watching Rachel sleep there. Let mama be the same papa who told Luna," said Fuza.

"Yes my mom." Kia and Rachel walk towards the room that Kia occupied while not married yet.

Herman took Luna and Fuza to his study. On the table look some maps that Herman has prepared, it's evidence to strengthen the story later.

"I'm sorry papa and mama, Luna. Our love story is not as sweet as the story of hate so love, a love story that is carried out a lot in the novel," said Herman.

Luna was still silent.

"Papa never betrayed mom. Papa is trapped in a room with a pregnant woman and forced to marry her. In a desperate situation, papa married the woman without your mother's advice. But the unlucky lady was a good person, she told her mom everything, and she trusted us."

"Am I that girl?" ask Luna weakly.

"No, you're our dear son" sidelines Fuza.

Herman gave Luna 1 map. When Luna opened the map, she saw two pregnant women, and one was her mother.

"That's your mama and that woman, she did live in the same house as us, but papa couldn't make her a wife. We divorced secretly" Herman said.

"Papa could not accept her as a wife, but we could accept her as a brother. Mama gave birth to you first, and papa was busy with mama, so it is less clear what the cause of the death of the good woman, which we know she died while giving birth to her child, he said, 3 Days after she left the baby also caught up with her." Herman provided evidence of the death reports he mentioned in his story.

"You are our son, Luna .." said Fuza Lirih.

"I am insecure in the midst of you, I am not as good as you are, so I feel I am a little girl." Luna cried and hugged her parents.

"What are you really? Twin babies who share a place in the womb, receive nutrients from the same placenta, are born at the same time, they do not necessarily have the same talents and abilities," said Herman.

"Differences that make our lives beautiful. You can't force yourself to be like your brother, and your brother won't be able to take you. We as parents only support you as much as we can" Fuza said.

"I'm sorry for my stupidity."

At Ingrid's birthday party.

Ever since Fanny told him, Ingrid didn't see Fanny. He repeatedly contacts Fanny, but her calls are not connected. Ingrid approached Davi who kept looking at the phone screen.

"You seen Fanny?" ask Ingrid to Davi.

"So look, but a few minutes ago he left this room" Davi replied.

"Did this kid come home first?" Ingrid sends a message for the umpteenth time, whether how many of the same messages he sent to Fanny, it feels like Ingrid is not calm before knowing the state of Fanny. When Ingrid turned to Davi again, his son just disappeared.

"Why suddenly!" grouse Ingrid.

****

The figure that Davi is looking for knows that Davi is aware of his existence. He immediately left the place as quickly as he could. Lucky while in front of the elevator, did not wait long for the elevator door to open. He rushed in and hurriedly closed the elevator door. But the elevator door was not closed completely, a hand blocked the door, until the elevator door opened again.

With his cold face, Davi stared intently at the figure. "Didn't I say! Stay away from me!"

The figure continued to retreat, until his body pulled over on the elevator wall. Davi got into the elevator and closed the door, but did not press the destination floor, but locked the elevator.

"Why are you doing this to me, Likha!?"

Likha was still bowing her face, only her sobs were breaking.

"Answer I'm Likha!"

"The answer is you know! I can't stop loving you, looking at you from afar and making sure you're happy is enough!" Likha looked back down while wiping her tears.

"Why did you save me from Fanny's plan?!"

"I'm enough to cut a wound in Kia's heart. Enough of me to make you regret for betraying Kak Kia" said Likha sniffled.

"Women who continue to be with your mother look suspicious, I feel this person is dangerous to your household, and my guess is correct."

"I just don't want Big Brother to hurt Kia's heart anymore. If Big Brother falls into his trap, then this is a very big wound for Kak Kia."

Seeing Likha continues to sob, Davi felt pity, especially now it is very clear that Likha is 2-bodied. Davi pulled Likha into his arms. "Why did you let your pregnancy go? You already know that this seed grower will not be responsible" said Davi Lirih.

"Since I knew I was pregnant, I did indeed want to keep her and give birth to her into this world, she was the most beautiful memory of the person I loved, she said, though he finds it hard to get love from people because he is present without marriage."

Davi felt more guilty. Repeatedly he took his breath so deeply and took it off with a single gust. "How many months?"

"Since our return from abroad, 2 weeks later I just realized I was pregnant, my womb entered the sixth month."

"I can't leave you alone" Davi said.

"I've been on my own without Brother, I can and I'm sure Brother can too!"

"We have to talk to Kia" Davi suggested.

"For what? Brother wants to snatch my baby to be raised with Kia?!"

Davi shook his head. "Speaking with Kia, to give you a little place in our palace."

"Sister Kia won't want to, instead Brother will lose Kak Kia!" Likha wiped away the rest of her tears. "Don't hurt Kia again, sister. I am happy like this and I am happy like this. Like the original purpose of Big Brother to forget about me and repair Brother's relationship with Kak Kia."

"Let me with my life, brother. I promise I won't take advantage of my son when he's born, Brother continue with Brother Kia."

"I can't stop loving Kak Davi to forget Kak Davi is also impossible. But I'm sure, Brother Davi can spare me. Forget me yes sis .. focus on the happiness of Kak Kia and Rachel.
