Because, I Love You
Episode 26's

Rendy was glued and stared straight at Olivia who had just stepped out of the elevator with a familiar man.

Olivia, who was embracing the man's arm, immediately let go when she got out of the elevator and saw Rendy standing in front of her apartment unit also looking straight at him.

"Re-Rendy?" Olivia muttered with widened eyes feeling surprised because it turns out Rendy knew the apartment that she had occupied for several days.

Lothawat! Why would Rendy know I'm here?

Olivia said in her heart and glanced at Andreas and kept her distance.

Wah would be exciting.

Andreas with a smile.

Andreas looked so relaxed as if nothing had happened. He walked over to Rendy. "Hi bro! We finally meet again." Greet Andreas with his usual relaxed attitude towards Rendy.

Rendy turned to look at him with a frown and did not reply to the greeting of Andreas who had become his best friend during his time in London. There was a feeling of wanting to get angry and beat him up, but Rendy could still hold back her patience at this moment. He just needs to talk to Olivia right now.

He looked back at Olivia who looked nervous and awkward with the smile of his feet.

Slowly Olivia approached him. "Honey.i..."

"I want to talk to you." Rendy said flatly then looked at Andreas back with a question mark.

Rendy was eager to talk and asked Andreas as well as Olivia. But for now, he just needs an explanation from his lover first before having to talk to Andreas.

"Ehm, let's go in first. You can talk to him inside." Continued Andreas still with his relaxed attitude.

"Thank's Bro. But I'd better find somewhere else." Rendy replied with a slight smile. "Come on Oliv." Rendy takes Olivia away.

Beni who had been standing behind Rendy just stood still and followed her Boss.

Andreas flashed a triumphant smile as he watched Rendy leave. "This is what I'm waiting for. I hope your relationship with Rendy ends with Oliv." Andreas muttered with a deep smile and turned around and opened the door of his apartment and went inside.

Rendy walked quickly towards the elevator regardless of Olivia following her. Even Rendy was not holding or embracing her as usual while she was walking together. Olivia felt a very bad feeling. His heart and mind kept thinking of something bad that would happen to him. Not on him but on his relationship with Rendy.

He let out a long sigh trying to stay calm and think of words to explain to the lover who had been in communication with him for a week. He should be able to convince Rendy and maintain a relationship with her.

It's all because of that fucking guy! Goddamn bum!

Umpat Olivia inwardly blamed Andreas.

While entering the elevator, Olivia reached out her hand and hugged Rendy's arm.

"Honey, i..."

"We'll talk later. Not here!" Firmly Rendy snatched Olivia's words with a cold face without looking at her while in the elevator.

Instantly, Olivia let go of her hand that was hugging Rendy's arm. Rendy just kept letting it go. As Olivia hugged his arm, he did not reject her either.

Beni opens the door for Rendy, while Olivia opens the door herself. They sit in the back row. Beni immediately entered the steering wheel and drove his car back to leave the elite apartment building.

Without asking, Beni already knew where to take her Boss and Olivia where to talk.

In the car, no one spoke. The atmosphere became silent and very awkward that Olivia felt. Maybe he felt so guilty about Rendy.

Rendy also seemed indifferent as if she was reluctant to look at Olivia. He sat leaning with one hand also leaning against the car door.

"Honey." Olivia opens her voice to call Rendy.

"Hm." Rendy answered and looked at him.

"We talk after we get there." Again Rendy cut Olivia's words with her expressionless face and turned her face back to staring out of the car window.

He let Olivia still hold his hand.

"I just want to apologize to you! I know you must be mad, right at me?" Olivia was already unable to hold back her emotions because Rendy had silenced her and was reluctant to invite her to talk.

"Why don't you just talk here?" Olivia continued angrily and Rendy turned to look at him again but she remained silent.

Before long, the car had reached the basement of Rendy's apartment building. Rendy immediately went down without waiting for Beni to open the door. Olivia momentarily glued and then immediately came down following Rendy who had walked to the elevator just like that without waiting for her.

"Honey, wait! I know you must be angry, right? I can clear everything." Excited Olivia while walking quickly following Rendy's steps.

Beni, who is very self-aware, chooses to stay in the car because he does not want to interfere in the personal affairs of his boss unless the Boss needs help from him.

"I really need an explanation from you. I'll give you a chance to explain everything!" Said Rendy while looking at her at a glance and then looked forward again waiting for the elevator door to open.

'Tin!'

The elevator doors open and Rendy enters, followed by Olivia. Olivia hugged Rendy's arm. Rendy still left it until the elevator door closed and reached the sixth floor of the apartment unit Rendy was located.

They went out together to Rendy's apartment unit. Rendy pressed the password and opened the door. "Let's go in." Rendy lets Olivia in.

Olivia came in and Rendy came in and closed the door.

This is the first time Olivia entered into Rendy's apartment since her return to the homeland. Olivia looked around Rendy's apartment which looked luxurious and elegant. There's not much stuff inside and all the tatans are so neat. The paint color also looks elegant. It fits perfectly with Rendy's character. Olivia was always amazed by what was inside her lover.

"Sit here." Rendy who was sitting in the middle room patting the sofa asked Olivia to sit next to him.

Olivia sat down next to Rendy.

"Now you can clear everything. From the moment I went to Surabaya. Why can't I call you till today I saw you with Andreas in your new apartment? Or maybe it's Andreas' apartment?" Said Rendy with a serious look at Olivia asking for an explanation from her.

"Honey."  Olivia grabs Rendy's hand and grabs it. "I'm sorry I didn't get to tell you when you went to Surabaya my phone broke." Olivia also seriously looked at Rendy.

Rendy frowned feeling strange. "damaged? How can?" Ask Rendy.

"At that time, I wanted to send you a photo, but suddenly my phone fell in the bathtub and died." Olivia answered with a grieving face to convince Rendy to have Rendy believe her.

Rendy let out a long sigh trying to dampen his emotions that he had been holding back. It's hard to believe Olivia.

"Honey. You don't believe me, do you? A moment." Olivia asked and then released her hand on Rendy's hand and reached into her bag. He took his phone and showed it to Rendy.

"This is what you see! My phone broke because of the water soak. I recently bought a new phone. And just now that you called me, I didn't take it up, I'm sorry about that. I was..."

"You're with Andreas? So you're not picking up or really not picking up the phone from me? Afraid that I'm interrupting your togetherness?" Sambar Rendy stopped Olivia's words with a disappointed look.

"Why are you talking about that? Like you're accusing me of cheating on Andreas?" Ask back Olivia with emotion felt unacceptable with Rendy's words.

"It's enough Oliv! How long will you keep lying to me?" Rendy also can't hold back her patience and emotions anymore.

"Honey, what do you mean that I lied to you?" Ask Olivia back with a stupid face.

Rendy did not answer him immediately. He just stared at her with disappointment. His heart also felt broken along with the hope of wanting to continue this relationship to the bottom. Perhaps her struggle to maintain a relationship with Olivia without the blessing of her parents was enough.

And maybe this is a sign that indeed he and Olivia are not a match.
