EL NATH (Glorious Regrets)
Chapter 8 Tespack

Tiara was puzzled as to how the three Tespacks were clearly showing line two.

"Hiks... hicks..." Tiara continued to cry even though her body was now helpless.

Tiara sat on the bathroom floor hugging her knees. She should marry Nath?

What kind of life will we live later, O God. We don't love each other. And this kid... Tiara touched her still flat stomach.

How can this child grow up between two parents who do not love each other. Do I have to abort it?

Nah! Our actions are a great sin. And I don't want to add to sin by eliminating this innocent fetus.

Tiara stood up and took a shower. He needs to calm his mind. This tremendous inner upheaval is impossible for him to face alone and in the silence that is feared will trigger him to do reckless.

Tiara immediately dressed neatly. He wants to go home to his parents. Although not ready to tell his father and mother, Tiara will still be there. She needs a mother figure who always gives her a warm hug.

At about 11pm, Tiara left the house. He asked to be picked up by his father who happened to have just taken passengers to the area around the housing where he lived.

"Mister Tiara, yes." Said a gentleman as he stopped in front of Tiara waiting outside the gate of the house.

"Yeah!" His words were spoiled and managed to make his father laugh.

Tiara got on the bike and put on the helmet her father gave her. "Tumben asked to pick up dad."

"Hehehe... Kangen just ride a motorcycle around the city diboncengin dad," he said while chuckling.

The two-wheeled matic vehicle drove through a fairly crowded road because it happened to be Sunday.

"Says your boss has a seven-monthly event, Ti."

"Yes yeah. But Tia was lazy there. Not feeling well."

"It's not possible to also go there with the virus. There were two pregnant women, and there were all rich people. Tia is less, yeah," he continued.

His father smiled in response. "Have you chosen a college you like, Ti?"

The deg!

Tiara's stunned. College, college, college degree, decent work. Can I still achieve it after I do this?

Tiara looked blankly at the father's shoulder. This shoulder, this body has fought hard for me. And I let him down.

Slowly, clear circles dripped down on Tiara's cheeks. Sad, afraid, guilty and sure enough, he felt very disappointed in himself.

"Tie..." Father's voice made Tiara gasp.

"Eh... Yes yes." Tiara wiped her tears.

"Haha.. Even dreamy. Where do you want to go to college? God willing the money saving father same mother is enough for registration and cost 2 universes."

Tiara lowered her head and wrapped her hands around her father's stomach. If a thousand hugs could dispel the disappointment of both of his parents, Tiara would definitely do it. But the rice has become porridge.

"Tiara is still looking for the right one. Nice and cheap." He was piled on his father's shoulder.

"Tia... Tia... That price is directly proportional to quality, son."

Tiara did not respond to her father again until the two arrived home. Her mother and sister Naura were waiting at home. They had lunch together.

After that, everyone rested. Tiara just fell asleep hugging the bolster. But he can't sleep.

Repeatedly changing positions but his closed eyes could not bring him to dreamland.

Tiara stared at the ceiling of her room which was seen circular stains at many points due to the seepage of rainwater because the roof of her house had leaked a lot.

His mind was trying to digest every incident since a month ago. Everything happened without her guessing. Very far from his dreams and dreams so far.

Clear thread back drips. How did he say this to his parents?

Then Nath, will the man accept this child? Or Nath will tell her to abort her fetus.

Tiara closed her eyes. And slowly he drifted into dreamland.

4 O'clock in the afternoon.

This afternoon Tiara is helping her mother in the kitchen. The eldest of the two brothers was very happy to help his mother in the kitchen.

"Tia.." call his mother who is frying chicken while he is making sambal.

"Ehm.." dehemnya because he was focusing on sambal that managed to make his stomach kroncongan plus the aroma of fried chicken that makes him more lazy to answer.

"Yesterday, aunt Reni is coming."

Tiara was shocked when she heard Reni's name. She was the mother of the late Reyga and Reyfan. "Mrs, Mama?" sahut fast.

Mother Tiara turned off the stove and sat down on a small stool in front of Tiara. "Say Reyfan wants to go home, next month."

Tiara exhaled a rough breath. "He knows, Mom." Tiara put her homemade chili in the bowl. Then he stood up and put it on the table.

"The next month they'll come to propose to you."

The deg!

Tiara's heart almost jumped out.

"La... lamar?" tanyanya stuttered to look at her mother. He thinks it's too sudden, beyond his expectations.

Mother nodded. "Same mother I tried to resist but Miss Reni gave a thousand reasons, Ti."

"You can go to college after marriage and Reyfan will continue his S2 here while working at his parents' company."

"Mother agrees?" tanya Tiara hesitated.

The face of the 40-year-old woman showed her gentle smile. "You know you're not happy, son."

Tiara hugged her mother. He started sobbing. "Mom knows how you feel, Ti. Reyfan wasn't Reyga even though they were born from the same womb."

"Mom and I will try to reject that proposal even if it's hard, son." The young woman stroked her daughter's back trying to calm the girl she gave birth to 19 years ago.

"Bu Reni is too kind to you, to our family." Yes, Ms. Reni was very kind to them, especially since Reyga was so happy to be friends and connect with Tiara.

Reygah used to be a child who shut down because he felt himself different from his other friends. He is not healthy, and his activities should not be too heavy.

Routinely every month he went to the hospital and every few months he went out of the country for treatment, to make his heart beat normal.

Tiara and Reiga have been friends since X class. And their relationship is getting closer. Until finally Reyga asked permission of his mother to apply for Tiara when he graduated from school with a note both will continue his education.

Reyga's goal is very noble. He wants to raise the degree of the Tiara family whose incident is the lower-middle class. He wanted Tiara to achieve his goals and have a much better future.

Around 5 o'clock Tiara finished her bath and looked for her clothes in the closet. If the father is not at home, he is used to wearing a towel that covers his chest to his knees when he finishes bathing.

Tiara wore a long-sleeved nightgown and her eyes were fixed onto a transparent plastic with a green, extinct kebaya.

Tiara picked it up and called out to him while sitting on the edge of the bed.

A bridesmaid kebaya and an invitation with a luxurious design.

"Ajeng Larasati and Syambayu Dwipraga." Tiara read the name of the bride and groom listed on the invitation.

Ajeng is his best friend. The four of them, namely Tiara, Reyga, Ajeng, and Evelyn.

"Ball room hotel Xx, Jakarta." Tiara read the venue for the wedding reception.

Tiara had actually apologized to Ajeng because he had already said he could not attend a week ago. Ajeng had already provided a hotel room for her and Evelyn.

Tiara reasoned that the event coincided with the seven-month event of two important people in her life, namely Zoya and Bintang. He has never been out of town by himself. Evelyn was already in Jogja because she attended college there.

After the magrib, Tiara found her parents. "Tiara's going to Jogja, Mom. Tonight."
