My Heart For You
3. Misunderstand
Karina was about to stand up but her movements were held back by the man beside her.
“bed, I'll be out.” He then took his mother out of the room.
The mother and son were in the hotel restaurant. The mother looked at her son with a hopeful look. I wish that this girl was his son's lover.
“why not say?”
“ibu whatansih, we have no relationship whatsoever.”
“ada is also okay, mother even seneng.”
“dia Employees only here.”
“oh yes? What department?”
“office girl.”
Kenan saw his mother speechless as soon as he heard the answer coming out of his mouth. She thought her mother would stop teasing her with Karina. He thought his mother judged someone by their status. Kenan thought so because all the women introduced to him came from among all conglomerates.
But his guess was wrong because his mother's expression again turned mocking him like before.
“you hid this out of fear that mom won't bless your relationship?”
“no ma'am, we do not have such a relationship.”
“it's okay, I bless you guys. As long as you love her. I see it looks like she's a fine woman.”
“buu.”
“when you guys got married.”
“ibu! Go home.”
“you expel mom?”
“dad sure to wait for mom at home.”
With a frown, the middle-aged woman finally returned home. Kenan rubbed his nape because he felt agitated. His mother won't stop here, she will definitely do something behind him.
The phone in his pocket shook, he swiftly picked up and looked at the name of the caller. His smile grew when he saw who was calling.
“halo.”
“hello, Kenan. I heard you were in an accident.”
“no, I'm fine. Just a technical fault in the hotel elevator. Good thing I got out before the elevator fell so no problem.”
“thank goodness. I called you to ask that.”
“you've taken medicine?”
“already, you don't have to worry about me.”
“ rest, tomorrow I will visit you.”
“iya.”
Kenan returned to the room on the fifth floor to check on Karina. The doctor said he was in severe shock and needed rest. Kenan himself does not understand Karina's situation because he previously looked fine.
Kenan opened the door slowly and entered and found an empty room. If the girl had just come out, they would have passed each other on the stairs because there was only one emergency staircase. Kenan concluded that Karina had left shortly after she and her mother left the room.
Tomorrow, Kenan continues to be terrorized by his father. He was asked to go home immediately. His gut tells him that his mother said something no to his father. Sure enough, once he got home he was crammed with various questions.
“dad heard anything from mom?” Kenan glanced at the mother who was just sitting sweetly beside her father while smiling at him.
“what do you think your mother said?”
“yahh, it's about me having a girlfriend or something?”
“so you really have a girlfriend? Continuously do not want to recognize to mom's father for fear of not being condoned, so?”
“no yeah, I don't have a girlfriend.”
“no girlfriend but one bedroom sleep.” Said the mother giving oil to the burning fire.
“bu, I know it's not so, I didn't sleep with her.”
“Kenan, I want you to take him home and introduce him to us.”
“but yeah..”
“no but, take it home or out of the company.”
Kenan could not argue anymore if his father had brought the company business. Forcibly, he must find a way to bring Karina to appease his parents.
After leaving his parents' house, Kenan took the time to visit an old friend. He travelled about an hour from the residence of his parents. Simple house on the edge of the city with a beautiful atmosphere that still welcomes the eyes of Kenan. There was a girl sitting on the terrace looking blankly at the front.
“Kiara.” Kenan called out to the girl accompanied by a smile on his face. A smile that was never shown to anyone, he showed it to Kiara even if it was in vain.
“you really came.”
“of course.”
“mau sitting here what's in?”
“here only, which is more adem.”
In this spacious yard there are many plants ranging from flowers to fruits. Kenan always liked being in this place. Relax enough to calm the mind and unwind from the pile of work.
“how are you doing?”
“I'm fine.”
“no word from the hospital?”
The girl shook her head weakly.
“don't worry, one day you can definitely see again.”
Kiara simply smiled in response to a spirited remark from Kenan. Although there is a sense of wanting to see again, but he thinks that it is no longer important. Kiara was just trying to accept her situation like this. It had been three years, so he should be able to accept the situation.
Lucky for Kenan to always be by his side to be the best encouragement he has.
“you already have a lover?” kiara's question made Kenan immediately turn to her.
“no, don't discuss it again.”
“I'm fine, eliminate your guilt. You've been giving me so much happiness all this time, it's time for you to make yourself happy.”
“don't talk as if you know me best.”
“therefore look for someone who can understand you.”
“stop discussing this.”
“Kenan, I'm serious about what I said. Find someone and live happily with him.”
“aku go home first.”
“lain times come with your lover.”
Kenan does not want to linger there if their discussion is already about his personal life. He himself wondered why everyone asked him to immediately find a partner while he did not want it.
Kenan did not return home but to the hotel. He had to find Karina to discuss his problems. But unfortunately he could not meet the girl even though he had been waiting until night. After finding out, it turned out that the girl requested sick leave for two days.
Armed with a piece of paper bearing Karina's address, Kenan scours the streets at night in search of her home. Finally he arrived at an area quite far from the hotel. He got out of the car because he had to get into a narrow alley. After walking for a long time and asking the person he met on the street, he finally stopped in front of a simple house.
“basic don't know yourself!”
Kenan's hand hung in the air when he heard the curse from inside the house.
“you've been hiding your money from us? You didn't say that you worked in a luxury hotel and pocketed all that money for yourself.”
From his voice, Kenan guessed that it was the voice of a middle-aged woman.
“there's no point in us raising you all this time.”
“bi, I didn't mean to hide it. But I also need money to buy food when outside.”
“reason, you can bring supplies from home.”
“other than that according to aunty two hundred thousand money is enough to meet the luxurious life of aunty and aunty child?”
Kenan took a step closer to the door when he heard the voice of the girl he knew.
“in the end all the money was spent for you, ranging from eating, clothes, water, electricity, until pocket money everything I closed it even though uncle also had his own income.”
“so now you're calculating with us? We raised you all this time.”
“you have done nothing but let me sleep here, the money for my life all use money from the relics of my father and mother, you did not even spend a penny.”
“wahh look at this kid getting brash.”
TOK TOK!
The sound of knocking on the door made the debate inside the house stop instantly. The door opened and revealed Karina who was seen trying to suppress her emotions.
Karina was surprised to see who the people who had been meeting at night were like this. Awfully, he smiled at Kenan.
“Pak Kenan?”
