You don't have to force the person you love to love you either, don't just love him then you force him to love you too. Love can not be forced so do not have to force to be loved too. If you love her, you should understand her feelings.

“No Kelvin, of course I've thought about it well and I love you too, so what else should I wait for?” Elie kept forcing me to fulfill her will.
“I can't marry you, it's not a silliness we have to do.”
“Although I will spread the footage of the two of us, will you also not marry me Kelvin?” Elie kept insisting on forcing me.
“Yes, there is no need to threaten me Elie, no matter how hard you force me to keep I will not marry you, we only make mistakes not because of love so keep it, so keep it,” I know this woman will not give up on what she wants.
“Tell Kelvin why can't you love me like you love Zoya? Obviously she already has a husband but why can't you give up on her! Look at me here for a little bit Kelvin ...” growled Elie tried to squeeze myself until I saw tears slowly coming out of her eyes.
‘Why did my heart suddenly hurt to see her tears come out? Do I just feel sorry for her but why does my heart also feel so hurt,’ Inner Elie.
I stared at Elie, she was crying. I don't know if it was a real cry from her or just a charade to fool me again, somehow my heart was so sad to see her crying like this in front of me, I wanted to try to comfort her to stop crying but my courage was so small that I was embarrassed.
‘I'd better wait for Elie to finish crying,’ Inner Kelvin.
I waited for her crying to subside, I kept staring at her, there was a deep sense of disappointment in her crying like that. Seeing him cry like this I didn't intend to snap at him.
“Kel–Kelvin, sorry can I hold you for a minute,” pinta Elie in her sobs.
I just nodded at her request, it seemed like she was really crying, so I let her get what she wanted. Elie hugged me tightly, as my hand tried to return her embrace and gently rubbed her hair. The rest of the cafe all saw Elie crying making me have to duck.
‘This time I allow you to get a share of affection from me, please stop crying my heart is so unbearable to see you,’ Inner Elie.
It seems like I just can't see a woman crying in front of me but Elie once cried in front of me and then why don't I care about her? I actually snapped at him. I hope I don't fall in love with him.
Suddenly Elie let go of her embrace, I saw her eyes as moist as if this time she wasn't performing in front of me.
“Sorry Kelvin, I should not cry like before in front of you once again forgive me,” Elie said.
“Yes no problem I can understand you,”.
“But why did you return my embrace Kelvin? Unlike usual you want to return a hug from me, are you starting to love me?” Elie suddenly asked me something silly.
Elie shifted herself closer to me, ”You don't lie Kelvin, it's obviously very strange that you don't usually care about me until you return my arms but thank you for your attention.”
I was a little relieved to hear his words, where maybe I would be attentive for loving him, it was very unlikely that it would happen if I were to love him. Seeing Elie as not wanting to discuss the issue of video recording more clearly, I came looking for him just for the sake of recording not to fail even though my heart was touched just by seeing him cry.
“Elie, it's enough of your sadness now tell me how it is about our recording, do you want to ask me for payment? I'll give you whatever you ask as long as you don't ask to marry you,” I said frankly.
Elie let out a deep breath, ”Sorry Kelvin I can't hand over the tape to you, if indeed you don't want to marry me this time it doesn't matter but let me stay with you, how?”
‘Oh no, what disaster will I receive this time? It can't happen what if until Zoya finds out then she doesn't want to see me again?’ inner Kelvin.
“Can't Elie, I won't give anyone else's wife permission to stay with me anyway I'm a normal guy please understand,” I tried to refuse.
“Are you afraid of Kelvin until Zoya will find out? If you're scared because Brian's an easy thing, I'd like to ask for a divorce with him, but if you don't want to blame me if our recording gets out, wouldn't that be more shameful?” I can see Elie is very smart trying to master me.
“But Elie I can't-”
Cringh ... Kringh .... Cringg.
Suddenly a call interrupted my offer with Elie. Making my speech had to stop. I saw a call coming in from a number I didn't recognize.
“Hallo this who?”
“Evininnnn! It's me, where are you? I'm filling out the internship form provided by your employee but this makes me dizzy Evin please come here arrrggh I'm sick of filling this out...!” viora screamed from behind my phone.
I patted the eel hearing the request from the little girl, just filling out the apprentice form was already noisier until my I hurt to hear the yell from her.
“Sorry little girl, at this time I can not help but I will tell my secretary to make your load a little light, already yes little girl,” I refused a request from her.
“Damn you Evin! Just watch out when we meet I'll pinch your hand!” viora said then turned off the phone next to her side.

“Who Kelvin just contacted you? Looks like there is a commotion huh I accidentally heard yelling, what is Zoya?” ask Elie suddenly.
“Ah no, this is my old friend she is just in trouble yes nature is indeed a little spoiled with me, oh yes about you want to stay with me sorry but it seems I can not Elie.”
“Old friends, what kind of friends are women or men? Then why Kelvin, is it because Zoya didn't ask to stay with you? Am I not entitled to try to be someone important in your life? I love you even though you don't want me standing near you at all, I always fail in relationships, always the bad luck I get.”
