The Way Love's
XXXVIII

Some of the waiters looked busy that morning. They were preparing breakfast for Arda and Sya. Yeah, it's not usually Arda asking for breakfast at home. He would usually choose to eat at the office.

Maybe because of the anger that still lingers on Sya. Until this second, Sya still did not come out of Sima's room. He chose to stay in the room with a song playing from his phone.

The sounding tones were able to make Sya run away in delusion. A beautiful delusion he made himself in the heart. The love and trust he has kept.

Tok to tok.

The sound of the knocking made all the khalayan Sya disappear just like that. It makes the annoyance come back to Sya. Strictly opened the door.

"What's wrong?" ask Him directly.

"Miss. Sir's waiting at the dinner table."

"Tell him. I'm not hungry."

His hand immediately closed the door of his room back. She sat on the edge of the bed feeling the same way. The pain of being betrayed.

Last night I kept thinking about it. Until she decides to divorce Arda. Yeah, he'll tell Arda about it.

Although he still loves Arda, but the pain was so pierced into the heart.

"Do I really need to get divorced?" ask her herself.

Tok to tok.

I have no intention of opening that door. She thought that Arda had come and brought her breakfast. That would put Sya back into a dilemma of her feelings.

Tok to tok.

The door was knocked by someone. Feeling very disturbed, Sya opened the door. A servant is seen bending his head.

"What else. I told you I didn't want to meet Arda."

"Sorry Miss, but you've already left for the office. There's a guest coming."

"Who?"

"He said he wanted to meet you."

"alright. You just prepare a drink for him. I'll be right down."

A jacket Sya wears to cover her body that only uses thin clothes. He came down and asked who had come to see him.

A man stood by the window. He looks very familiar to Sya. It's just that, Sya again remembered that she was a nobody. He is just Ruka Arda's friend.

"Sister Ruka," called Sya, "what's this big brother?" ask Sya.

"I want to see you and straighten out your and Arda's problems."

"No need, Brother. I can take care of it myself."

"He's my friend. I don't want your good relationship to be ruined because of this."

Shhush. He's bowing his head. While Ruka took the phone inside her shirt pocket. He gave the phone to me.

"What?" ask Sya.

"Look at the video."

His eyes switched on the phone in his hand. Where he saw what really happened last night. What he saw was wrong. What Arda said was true. It made her close her mouth.

"Yes. Even though we just met, I already consider you as a little sister. I don't want this marriage ruined by a misunderstanding."

He feels the same way. Every close to Ruka, Sya felt very close and not foreign. In fact, Sya wanted to meet with Ruka continuously. He felt calm when he was with Ruka.

"Yes" call Ruka.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Please don't be angry with Arda. He's very sincere to you."

"I know," answered.

"Then I'll go. I don't want anyone to see you and me together."

After saying that Ruka immediately left with her car. He came just to give the evidence that Sya asked Arda for.

After seeing the video. She was relieved that her husband had not betrayed her. Only he would not listen to the explanation he made. That made his communication with Arda break up until now.

Arda's smile expands when getting a message from Ruka. Ruka manages to get Arda back to her. Since the beginning of the meeting of Ruka and Sya, Arda saw something different.

It was not like meeting him at the beginning. She looks calm and comfortable when near Ruka. It's just that Sya chose not to tell Arda.

"Artha. Are you gonna fire me?"

Aila moved her feet closer.

"Stop there. I don't want to be close to you."

"You weren't like this to me. Is it because of Sya? what a good thing he's in your eyes."

Slowly Arda put down his phone. Then she turned to Aila who looked like she was about to cry, but Arda would not be stuck at the same thing.

"Jiang."

Arda and Aila turned simultaneously towards the door. She entered with a bushel of food in her hand. Without thinking long Sya entered and approached Arda.

"I'm sorry I didn't listen to you yesterday" Sya said.

"No problem. I know you'll take me back" Arda said, taking the food that Sya brought.

She glanced at Aila. He looks angry with his hands clenched. He felt very dislike for the woman.

"Arda," call out to Sya gently.

Arda looked at Sya. "What's wrong?"

"Why is he still here? didn't you promise to fire her."

Arda did not have time to answer Aila approached and immediately pulled Sya away from Arda. As soon as she caught Sya, Aila pushed Sya with both hands.

"Do you feel like you've won?"

He did not answer. He helped Arda stand up from the floor. Several times he stroked his injured arm.

"I won't let you win just like that."

"Enough!" shouted Arda "do you not feel ashamed of what you did. You're a woman, you should be aware of what you're doing."

"You said I should be aware. I did what your wife used to do. He's even more disgusting than me."

Plaque. A slap landed on Aila's left cheek. She looked at Aila with an indecipherable look.

"I did make that mistake, but I'm aware. I realized because I had a companion who could guide me."

"really? you don't know how much of an Arda asshole I used to be with."

"I don't care about Arda's past. All I know right now is that he's my husband and I'm not going to give it to anyone. What else on a woman like you."

Aila almost returned the slap, but two security guards entered and forcefully pulled Aila away. It was done by Arda because he did not want Aila to talk too far. He didn't want to step away from her.

"Yes." Call Arda.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Are you right to accept me and forget my past?"

"Yes. Just so you're honest with me."

"I'm always honest with you."

She approached and looked into Arda's eyes.

"In that case, I want to ask you one thing."

"What?"

"Did you kill my brother, Dava Zein?"

This time Arda's face changed. He's bowing his head. He doesn't know what to answer to. Whether honest or lying, I'll know.

"Tell me, I promise I won't leave you" said Sya.

"Actually, I didn't kill anyone. I accidentally shot your brother. Back then, he was one group with my enemies. I didn't realize he was Zein's mother's son."

Sya limp. He sat in front of Arda. He doesn't know what to say. One side he was devastated to hear the news, the other side he was happy because Arda was honest.

"Yes. I didn't know he was dead or not, I only shot him once."

"Do I still have hope for my brother?" ask Sya.

"I'll help you find him. I should apologize to him, too."

Arda pulled Sya into his open. She knew right now that she must be feeling very hurt by what she had said. What's more, he said that he shot Dava himself.

I thought about what Jeremy said. If Arda's right Dava's alive. Jeremy must know something. It prompted Sya to go back to see Jeremy in prison.
