The Unforgettable Story
Section 94

Before returning to Indonesia, Kirana invited Ratri to meet. Her brother refuses to meet at his home or the Miles family home. Although Miles forbids it, he still wants to see her. In any case, Ratri is his older brother, his only brother. He needed to clarify everything between them who knew they could not meet again any time soon.

Miles insisted on accompanying him. Kirana refused his offer. But the man sat not far from her in the cafe. Ready to come at any time to approach her if Ratri tries to hurt her. Something he could not understand, how could Miles think so low about Ratri. Kirana looked at him full of protest, but her husband did not care and remained close to her.

When Ratri entered the cafe, Kirana stood up. He waved his hand so that his brother could see where he was. Ratri turned to her and walked over. Although the woman did not offer her hand, Kirana hugged her. He felt Ratri's body stiffen.

“Please sit down, Brother.” says Kirana politely. “Thank you for coming here to see me.”

“And this is for the last time.” said Ratri firmly while wagging his clothes. Kirana surprised. “I don't want to get close to people who like adultery. Fuck.”

“Will not eat or drink something?” Kirana brought the menu book closer to him, trying to ignore her brother's cynical remark just now.

“No. I just want to say this to you.” Ratri looked at Kirana intently from head to waist. “If you think by marrying her then your future is more secure, you are wrong. He'll kick you out someday. There will be a woman, or many other women, who will be able to attract her attention. And William, if he had to choose, he would definitely choose his father. Because Miles is more established than you. In the end, you will be thrown away and left alone. Better wake up now than keep dreaming, Ki.”

“I don't,” says Kirana. What the hell is he talking about? Miles is not that kind of man.

“When one day a woman comes along carrying a child she recognizes as Miles' son, remember this.” Ratri immediately cut it off. “Sin will follow you wherever you go. The dirty way you take a husband from his wife will also be used to take your husband away from you. In this world nothing is eternal, Ki. No exception with your husband's love for you.”

“Why, Brother?” kirana asked in disbelief. “Why is Brother like this? What have I done to you?” First, he teases Miles and tries to change his mind regarding their intention to get married. Now he's accusing Miles of doing evil to him. Wh why?

“Have you ever once pondered what you have done? “ Ratri looked at him with a look of disdain. “Although you are not an attractive woman, you should not use your body or your child to force a man to marry you! How humiliating! I'm ashamed to have a sister like you! Are you blind because of your good looks? Or does the treasure he has dazzle you? Or are you doing all this to show off to me?”

“Brian was just a regular employee at his papa company, when on the other hand Alastair was a successful entrepreneur? Is that?” shouted Ratri. Kirana frowned. Why is this about Brian? He never had bad thoughts about his brother-in-law. “You are satisfied now that you finally got the better of me? Is that why you use dirty? So you can beat me?”

“Kak, I don't,” protest Kirana. But her brother did not listen and continued to talk.

“Never see me again. Don't call. I came here to tell you that. I can't believe I have a sister like you. Which is more worthy of being called a cheap woman than the wife of a respectable man.” spray Ratri. He immediately rounded his eyes as soon as he saw something behind Kirana.

Without looking back, Kirana knew that Miles was walking towards her. From Ratri's expression, Miles must have looked at him sharply and wanted to kill him. But that's not what he's thinking. Kirana's lips twitched, her chest tightened. And his heart was hurt so badly after hearing Ratri's accusation. Her own biological sister, calling her a cheap woman?

“I don't want to listen to anything from you.” Ratri threw out his face. A hand touched Kirana's shoulder and the other hand grabbed both hands on her lap.

“It's time we go, sweetheart.” whispered Miles who helped him stand up. Then he let go of Kirana's hand moving to take the woman's handbag that was on the chair.

“No idea what makes Brother feel never satisfied?” kirana added. “Because Brother always sees what others have better than Brother has. And you always want what everyone else has. Brother, you will never be happy. Since I've experienced it before, I know it.”

“I said, I don't want to listen to anything from you!” pekik Ratri was upset. His eyes were staring at Kirana sharply. Kirana did not take a breath of surprise or shock. He expected his reaction.

“Good. Then listen to me.” Miles said in a furious tone. Kirana turned her head towards him and pleaded in her heart for the man not to say something that could hurt her brother. “Stop accusing Kiranaku carelessly. If you can't be a good sister, stop pretending to be a holy woman. I'm telling you, my wife is much better than you. He never pretended to be like you. You and Angelica are the same. You all just make me sick.” Ratri took a surprised breath but he did not dare to say anything.

Miles wrapped his hands around Kirana's waist, kissed her cheeks, then took her to the exit. No one turned their heads towards Ratri, Kirana did not either. They walk to the car and Miles opens the car door for him. He's coming in, Miles shut the door. While circling the front of the car towards the driver's side, Miles shook his head. Kirana just put on her seat belt and took a deep breath.

As Miles sat behind the steering wheel and started the car engine, a single tear fell on Kirana's cheek. He looked the other way. If her husband sees her, he will be sad. Or at worst, she could get out of and car and approach Ratri just to scold him. But of course he knew he was crying. Miles held his hand and squeezed it slowly.

“He is not worthy even for one drop of that tear, sweetheart.” Miles touched his wife's cheek and turned it around to see her. Kirana wiped the tears on her cheeks.

“I know.” his wish.

“We're home?” ask Miles gently. Kirana shook her head.

“I don't want Will to see me like this.”.

“Good. Where do you want to go?” ask Miles again.

“I don't know. Anywhere.” the answer is confused. He could not think of any place to calm down. Miles smiled as he moved his hand away from Kirana's face. He drove his car out of the cafe parking lot.
