The hour hand was already showing at half-two in the morning. But Stevany is still sitting on a concrete bench in a suburban park. His eyes are straight ahead. I don't know what he's thinking. Stevany is busy with her own fantasies.
There was Jeon standing not far from his seat. The handsome fellow deliberately let Stevany sit pensively. Jeon knew what was going through Stevany's mind. That guy won't ask unless Stevany's gonna tell him.
Upon hearing Stevany cough, Jeon opened the jacket he was wearing and put it on Stevany. "It's late, Stev. You'll be sick."
"I'm sorry, I'm troubling you."
"No. You never troubled me. Because you're a strong, tough, great woman. I'm sure you can get through it."
Stevany's cries suddenly broke. He hugged Jeon's arm and rested his head on the boy's shoulder. "I thought that if I had forgotten her, her presence still made my heart beat."
"Take this meeting as a test for you. Are you going to stay with him or are you really going to let him go."
Stevany shook her head. "I want to escape from God. He loved Treisya. She wanted to be with me just because I was pregnant with her child. That boy is no more."
"Then, be firm with him. You are now in Indonesia. Here you are not in his power."
"Company me, je." said Stevany then closed his eyes. He had promised both his parents to forget Dewandra. He no longer wants to be in touch with the mafia.
*************
At half-four in the morning, Stevany arrived at the hotel.
"Makasi has brought me, Je. I'm going in first yeah.." said Stevany.
"Yes." Yeah." Jeon rushed to the security room. Although he no longer works at this hotel, Jeon always gets a room at this hotel.
Stevany himself took the elevator to the top floor of the hotel. There are 2 apartment units devoted to Dawson's guests of honor and family. Each apartment contains 2 rooms. Stevany has requested that one of the units be prepared for him.
When Stevany put the card on the door of the apartment, it opened and when Stevany stepped in, someone pushed him so that Stevany almost fell. The door behind him was shut and when Stevany turned her back, she immediately shouted in shock with a pale face.
"Dewandra?" Stevany slowly backed off. He pulled his phone out of his bag but Dewandra quickly grabbed it and put it in his pants pocket.
"What do you want?" stevany asked, trying to calm himself down.
"Aren't I still your husband?" asked the God with a cold look. The anger and jealousy from what he saw earlier had made God start to lose his mind.
Stevany began to retreat as the Gods slowly stepped closer to him.
"God's Out!"
"Why should I go out? Isn't it natural that I'm in the same room as my wife?"
"I'm not your wife!"
"We are officially married in the church. Seneo still has his marriage certificate."
"I'll get in the way."
"You want what? I no longer carry your child. Can't anyone tie us up anymore? You love Treisya right? Yes it's gone! I don't want to be in touch with you anymore." Stevany said firmly.
"I don't love Treisya!" dewandra said, then stopped right in front of Stevany. The girl could no longer retreat because behind her was a wall. Dewandra's warm breath even touched the surface of Stevany's facial skin. Stevany's body started to heat up. He clenched both his hands.
"You loved her. Don't make me your impingement again. I don't want my body made into your lustful instrument. I want to live a new life and be happy with my husband and children."
"And that guy has Jeon?" asked Dewandra while holding back all her jealousy.
"Yes. Whynot? She was kind and loved me sincerely even though she knew I was carrying your child."
"I'll never let anyone have you. You're mine, Stev." Dewandra reached out her hand about to touch Stevan's face but the girl turned her face away. Dewandra's hands were silent in the air.
"I belong to no one. You said that our marriage was just because you wanted to sleep with me. And I foolishly agreed to that for fear of something happening to me. I am now free."
Dewandra stared intensely into Stevany's bead eyes. "You love me. Loving me so much. You were willing to abandon the luxury of your family and come to the mansion, realizing the great danger that could have befallen you. Several times you saved my life because of your great love for me. I know, when you first said that you loved me, it wasn't a lie. I'm sorry I was late to realize that I feel the same way about you." God cupped Stevany's cheek. He raised the girl's head to look at her face as well. "I love you Stevany!"
Stevany's eyeballs grew. He did not expect that Dewandra would declare her love at this time. For a few seconds, the girl was stunned. Trying to realize that he wasn't dreaming. However, the harsh reality he felt when Dewandra repeatedly said that he loved Treisya made his consciousness again. Stevany strongly pushed Dewandra's body and distanced herself from the guy.
"I admit. I used to be crazy about you. I left my family to get your love. However, all the events in Seoul made me realize that love does not always have to have. I also realized that I was just obsessed with you and not love. That's why I was able to quickly open my heart to Jeon. Because you're not my true love."
"Don't lie!" dewa said he was upset because he clearly saw the light in Stevany's eyes that held love for him.
"It's up to you to believe it or not. That's no problem for me. You're not everything to me." Stevany smiled half-mockingly at the thing the girl was at war with her heart that wanted to immediately embrace the Gods at this moment.
Dewandra felt her chest ache to hear every word that came out of Stevany's mouth. If not remembering Seneo's warning about the power possessed by the Dawson family, Dewandra had forced Stevany to come with him right now. With just one command, the whereabouts of Stevany, Ling and Jeon were not tracked by Seneo. Even Stevany's true identity could never be known as long as he was near Dewandra. Doesn't that prove the power that the Dawson family has?
Gods may rule in America and Korea. But not in Indonesia.
"How can I convince you that I love you too?"tanya Dewandra looked desperate. He can't force Stevany this time.
"No need to do anything. Go back to Korea as soon as the tournament is over. Because I don't want to have any relationship with you. Your shadow alone I threw away long after I miscarried."
The god restrained himself. Seneo reminded him to be patient. "I'll win your heart, Stevany!"
"Whenever you try, my heart will never be for you again."
"Let's see. If you left everything in order to get my heart. Now I'm gonna leave everything to be with you." The god turned his back and left Stevany alone. After the Gods closed the door, Stevany immediately fell down on the floor. Heart's sore. He still has a great love for Dewandra. Because earlier, he almost collapsed when he heard the man's confession of love.
Stevany wiped away her tears. He no longer wants to cry. He promised himself. Dewandra is just a story of his past.

Wondering what God would do to get Stevany's love?
