Divorce
AD CHAPTER 104 - The First Quarrel
"Why? how did his face get so stiff? Daddy's not mad, am I friends with Daniel?" ask Jia. She looked at Alex expectantly, hoping her husband would answer No. He and Daniel were friends, nothing more.
But Alex did not immediately reply, he threw his breath away violently and Jia was able to hear it clearly.
"I don't like to see you close to Daniel, can you stay away from him?" answer Alex with a question.
And that one question was enough to make Jia dumbfounded.
"Why?"
"Why? Since she loves you Jia, don't you know?"
Jia knew that, but all this time Jia always denied it. Jia always thought it was just a joke. Anyway how could Daniel really like her, Jia thought.
And hearing Alex call him back by name instead of mommy, Jia knew enough that Alex was angry.
"You don't trust me, Dad?"
"I believe in you, but I don't believe in Daniel. He will always find a way to separate us, he will always tell you about my bad side."
Alex went to the closet. Knowing this debate will make their relationship stretch Alex prefers to avoid.
Their first quarrel was enough to make a wound, the chest of the two again felt tight.
Alex took his original clothes and wore them rough, but Jia had prepared the clothes on the bed.
And Jia who saw Alex angry like that also felt a tightness in her heart. He believes in Alex a lot, but Alex is like this.
"Dad, are your co-workers all men?"
"Another thing, Daniel loves you."
"But I just love Daddy."
"It wouldn't be like that Dad, he even knows we're married. He also wishes us all the best."
Alex turned back and went back to his wife who was still sitting on the side of the bed. He also wears his work clothes perfectly.
"If I forbid would mommy still be friends with Daniel?"
Jia fell silent.
The corner of his heart was again forcefully crushed. Love is not enough for their relationship. Too much love is also a problem.
Alex's love is now controlling Jia.
"I can't ban mommy, but mommy should know, I don't like your friendship."
"I'm leaving" said Alex. He kissed Jia's forehead and then passed from there. Get out of the room first.
Leaving Jia who was fixated on the same position. This morning Alex had a meeting and he had to arrive early. Last night they agreed to go alone.
But somehow now this separation feels more painful.
Daniel to Jia was a friend and nothing more. Just like Lisa, the presence of Daniel is quite meaningful in his life that is slumped.
After rearranging his heart, Jia also returned to prepare and also left from there.
Today he would be busy to rent the building and set up his new office.
To ease his access to go-away, Jia again asked Abbu for help to become his driver today.
And after saying goodbye to Sofia, Jia began her day.
