Bebegigs
Chapter 86's

The orange quickly wiped away her tears as Magenta walked into the dining room.

The guy looks confused. Both of his cheeks were red. He wore white tennis shorts and a white sleeveless T-shirt.

The orange could hardly stop himself from jumping out of his chair and hit the guy and crying and apologizing.

But a bruised wound on Magenta's cheek made the orange back on alert.

Magenta gulped and blinked at the sight of an orange popping eye, which he then concluded as a broken heart cry.

How far did he actually see what I was doing? He wondered in his heart.

It seems like too much!

The orange inched as the man stepped closer.

"Papa said you, I can enter," said Magenta somewhat choked, suddenly feeling that he had disturbed the girl.

"Nothing," Orange said without lifting his face.

Magenta approached and knelt down in front of the orange, "I'm really sorry, Orange. I don't know what else to say."

The orange frowned, barely jumping and scattering from his seat to avoid the gentle touch of the guy.

Magenta took out an orange hand and held it with both hands. "I'm a real mess" he said in a trembling voice.

The orange remains unmoved.

So, what exactly is he talking about? ask in the heart. Why is he the one apologizing?

What exactly is going on?

"I'm wrong, Orange," hissed Magenta. Along with that, Orange still did not understand what he was talking about. "Since I worked in the store, I've been with him a lot."

The orange jolted, he pulled his hand from Magenta's grasp.

"Sorry," Magenta repeated, not daring to raise his face. "But believe it may not, I'm the same he just.. fill each other-I mean. There's no commitment!"

Orange squinted his eyes. He retreated his chair and moved away in a daze.

Magenta raised his face and looked at Orange stuttering. "Let me be a man, too" he said in self-defense. "I need that, and you don't understand a man's needs. Anyway I don't want to stain you!"

Orange gulps. I've been stained, her mind bitter. And I didn't even notice. But what does it mean to need men?

What exactly is he talking about? think Orange is frustrated. But somehow his mouth seems locked.

It took a while for Orange to understand that Magenta was uncovering the secret of his betrayal.

"OK," said Magenta. "I was wrong. I'm resigned!"

"Bring your girlfriend here!"

The sound was shaking them.

Empu Brajasena stood on her side leaning against her shoulder to the door frame and crossed.

The orange shrieked silently and smothered his mouth with both hands.

Your boyfriend? thought Orange surprised.

Magenta's girlfriend?

Magenta instantly trembled.

How long has he been standing there? thought.

Did he hear all my confessions?

Is this some kind of trap?

Is that why Empu Brajasena told me to come in and let me talk to Orange?

I am truly beyond help, lamenting Magenta in his heart. His body felt limp and hard to move, he was still kneeling in front of the dining table, turning his back on the door.

Empu Brajasena turned to the room door and disappeared for a while, then returned with a mirror and reached out to Magenta. "Try to look at your face!" his orders.

Magenta received it with trembling hands. He pointed the mirror at his face and stammered.

"You still want that mark, right?" ask Empu Brajasena.

Magenta was still frozen in silence.

"Do you know what that sign is?" Empu Brajasena asked again.

Magenta gulped with difficulty, "But—" he said raucously.

"Don't worry, I don't have any business with your personal problems" said Empu Brajasena. "But Jurig Bebegig's business remains my responsibility. I created that creature."

"But.. instead of that time.. udah—"

The orange freezes with tears. Still not sure what he heard. Magenta has a girlfriend? his mind is not out of thought.

So who was I all this time?

"Orang?" Empu Brajasena narrowed her eyes, looking at Orange with a warning signal.

"I promise!" orange said quickly, his voice stuck in the throat.

"Well! So what, Gen?" Empu Brajasena switched to Magenta.

Magenta still looked shaken. He remained unmoved with a pale face.

Empu Brajasena let out a short sigh and bowed, pressing down on Magenta's shoulder. "Don't feel inferior" he said. "Yasa and Orange are no better than you."

Orange and Magenta again flinched, then exchanged glances.

Empu Brajasena patted Magenta on the shoulder and pulled him up from the floor.

The orange smothering her mouth held back a burst of crying, then scattering from the kitchen and rushing into her room. Shut up and wail.

Why did Papa talk to Magenta that way? batin Jingga felt despicable.

Jingga did not understand, the purpose of her father said that so that Magenta let go of Orange and made peace with his regrets.

That way, each of them can live what they should have been living since the beginning-of-the-make relationship with their respective partners without guilt.

That way, his guilt towards Magenta could also be slightly reduced.

Empu Brajasena does look all she wants, but that doesn't mean she has no compassion.

However, Empu Brajasena realizes his decision is unfair to Magenta.

It's also unfair to Yasa.

But wouldn't it be more unfair if his daughter's disgrace came to light at a later date and brought remorse to more people?

Sooner or later, Magenta will still be disappointed!

Even the other guy.

Which man would accept his daughter's imperfections?

Of course he did not blame the orange, let alone blame Yasa.

That creature is his creation!

Empu Brajasena admitted it was his fault.

More than that, Empu Brajasena also felt vile. From the beginning he was the cause of all these disasters, creating monsters, ravaging villages, causing trouble for all his loved ones.

Now he harnesses Yasa's empathy and breaks Magenta's wings.

Making Yasa as his disciple was only one of Empu Brajasena's schemes.

He had kept this tactic a secret for a long time.

From the beginning he knew that his daughter had lost her honor in the cottage.

That's why he tied Yasa up. Educating him well, shaping him into a man, made him worthy of his daughter.

Yasa's great feeling in the orange was just luck.

Magenta scandal is an opportunity.

The universe still forgives him!

This was his last chance to atone for all his sins.

"The girl has to be brought here, however," Empu Brajasena told Magenta.

Magenta paled even more considering the reality he faced. He gulped with difficulty before finally being able to answer, "Well," his his hiss, suffocated by his horror.

"Do I need to be temenin?" Empu Brajasena offers.

Magenta shook his head quickly, trying to brace himself.

Empu Brajasena sighed heavily and rubbed both of Magenta's shoulders once more, trying to strengthen him. "I know it's too much for you" he said guiltily. "But each of you has become one flesh with another."

Magenta blinked and ventured to look at Empu Brajasena's face, casting a questioning gaze.

"Marry the girl" persuaded Empu Brajasena. "Then you have to marry Yasa."

Magenta was struck between regret and broken charcoal.

Is that what I mean by no better?
