The True Love
Chapters. 208. Delisha's Grief
The atmosphere in the largest Mall in the capital city of Jakarta was quite crowded during the day. The hustle and bustle of the crowd at that time did not bother the dispute that occurred between Abhimanyu and Delisha.
Delisha who was stared at like that sometimes misbehaved and her face was reddened and blushed with embarrassment.
They sat for the first time in a family atmosphere. Abhimanyu wanted to take advantage of the momentum to talk about their future.
"Yesterday Brother said there's something to talk about so take Delisha outside?" Ask by occasionally stirring his drink.
Abi looked at the face of his future wife before answering the question, "You ever said many shortcomings that exist in you, can you know what you mean?"
Delisha was silent for a moment before answering a question from Abi. He considers every possibility of what to be honest or covers it up for various reasons.
Abi is patient waiting for Delisha to open her mouth to be honest with her. Delisha took a sip of her drink first and then started talking.
"My status is currently single but already has a son who is almost 9 years old without a husband" he explained.
"This is what I'm waiting for from you my little girl."
Abi only fell silent and sometimes smiled faintly in response to the words of Delisha without any intention to refute her.
"I'm a woman who has to have children out of wedlock, I'm a woman who does not deserve to be married" he said.
"Continue?" Ask Abi.
"Both you better think again to marry me, I don't want you to regret my status in the future" he said.
"Abang just want what the reason why Lee can be present in the world, Brother wants to know where the Papi?" His gaze was sharp enough as if he wanted to skin Delisha until Delisha spoke truthfully.
Delisha instead of answering the question even just fell silent and her eyes were already glazed until slowly but surely her tears managed to escape also from the tip of her eye patch.
Abi spontaneously wiped Delisha's tears with a handkerchief she took from her shirt pocket.
"Sorry Brother just wants to know everything, you don't want to know later from others" he explained.
Abi held Delisha's hands together. Actually Abi did not want to do that, but he wanted to know straight from Delisha's mouth. Even though he's got black evidence on white. Abi a few days ago had already done a secret DNA test for his son.
Delisha started talking about her past. Starting from the time he was held captive and pestered drinks that had been mixed with stimulants until he fell into the arms of a man he did not know and did not know until this moment.
"I'm sorry Brother who has scratched up your past, forgive Brother," he explained with his tears.
"After hearing everything, Delisha gives you the freedom to choose any path to stop or continue our engagement" while removing the ring that has been on her ring finger for one week.
He thrust the ring in front of Abi with tears still dripping down his father's face.
Abi immediately took the ring and pulled out Delisha's hand.
"Abang not at all concerned about it, Abang will fight for the love of Brother with You and I will prove it any way," he replied as he pinned it back a second time into his finger.
"Whatever happens to your love is only for Delisha until any time until the end of time, your name will always be engraved in your heart Brother" he said by putting his hand Delisha right on his chest.
"But Abang." said Delisha who was silent for a moment as Abi placed her index finger in front of her lips Delisha.
Delisha being treated like that was crying even more. Abi was amazed by what Delisha did.
Delisha felt sad and unworthy to be with a man as good as Abhimanyu who was willing to accept him with all his heart and all his soul and body.
"Abang surprised you, not happy but instead crying and more sad," said Abi who was confused by Delisha's attitude.
"Delisha does not deserve to accompany her life Brother, is not shy to have a wife like Delisha, what she said later her family Brother if they know the reality of her past Delisha," explained Delisha.
Delisha was frightened by this, although some of the men she was introduced to had always spoken harshly and insulted her, but she never cared about it in the least and did not want to take a headache from other people's talk about her status as a pregnant woman out of wedlock.
