Forgetting the Ex
Chapter 68

"You want to go home today?" Alena's question didn't stop Aldi's hand from packing his clothes.

"I was there last night" he replied.

"Can I come?" Alena offered herself.

"No, I don't want my parents asking questions about our relationship."

"Why?"

"Alena, I'm here to study. I don't want them to worry about me let alone find out we're in a relationship" she replied.

"And it's better" said Alena. "Oh, yes or no-don't you want to meet the girl, what's her name?"

"Sheila's."

"Yes, the girl you said was a selebgram."

"This has nothing to do with him, I went there to see my brother," Aldi tried to explain.

"You're ashamed 'yes introduce me?"

"Eh, it's not like that. The time was just not right yet," Aldi held onto Alena's two arms and looked at her. "You want me to drive you home" he bargained.

"No, I'm on a bike." Alena put away Aldi's hand and went out of her lover's boarding room.

"Alena!"

The girl ignored Aldi's call.

"Ah, stop. I have to go" he murmured.

"I don't think you're coming to see me!" Sabrina hugged her little brother.

"I'm definitely coming," he said.

"What's his name?" He saw a little baby in a crib basket.

"Arion Mahesa." Answer Arvan.

"Well, my friend is fighting!" Aldi.

"Just kid!" sabrina Protest.

Aldi chuckles. "I'm kidding, Brother!"

The door to the room is open. "Sister, I've brought.." she stopped when she saw Sabrina's guest.

"Where!" Sabrina raised her hand.

Sheila passed Aldi who was staring at her without blinking. "This, Brother!" he offered a plastic bowl with fruit soup.

"Thank you" Sabrina smiled, opening the lid and enjoying it. Arvan is still focused on looking at the tiny baby who was born a few hours ago.

"Sister, I'm going home!"

"Hurry up?" Sabrina looked up at her husband's cousin.

"I have to make a video" he answered lying.

"Can't it be delayed?" Arvan asked.

"No, Brother. The money has also gone into my account. So I have to finish it immediately" he replied.

Sheila left the room of her cousin's wife. He was lazy to linger looking at the man who made his heart break.

Aldi was also saying goodbye for a while, he accelerated his pace after the girl who had told him love.

Sheila further accelerated her pace as she was followed by Aldi.

"Wait!"

Sheila continued walking and did not make the call of her sister-in-law Arvan. He got into the elevator and so did the man.

" Hey," Aldi pulled the girl's hand until her face hit the chest.

Quickly, Sheila stretched the distance between the two.

"You why?" tanyakanya.

"Do we ever know?" Sheila showed a proud and haughty face.

"Sheila!" his yell.

"Hey, I'm not deaf. Don't yell!"

"You changed after yesterday's accident" Aldi said.

"Yes, I have to turn into a more mature girl, not spoiled and able to be independent" she said without looking at Aldi's face.

"I sent you a message and tried to reach you but you never returned it."

"It's important that my reply is to you!" he walked out of the elevator.

"Sheila!" call him.

The girl turned her body and approached the man. "It's a hospital and there are a lot of reporters out there. Don't let them make news that harms me!" he said slowly and firmly. He turned his body quickly.

"He's really weird!"

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Judis also learned of the pregnancy news of his ex-wife. He returned to City M to calm down. Somehow he always went to that town, like he had memories of her.

Linda forbade him to go to M. It was not Nora who was the reason for the ban but the man who had visited her house a few weeks ago.

"What else is 'clean, sir?" lamented Nora.

"You know this news?" Judis showed me her phone.

"Oh, that!"

"So you know?"

"I'm hard now to reach" he said.

Nora laughed mockingly. "The father was a fool, already knew the property of others but still pursued."

"I am a fool" he put on his sad face.

"Sir, just pursue for sure!"

"Can't, Nora. Maybe I got my vows," he said again.

"It can be."

Judis's eyes looked at a woman he knew. "Sarin!" muttered.

"So, why is he here?"? Nora saw the same person.

"You know him?"

"Yes, Sir!"

"I want to talk to him" Judis stood up.

"Eh, not Sir!"

"Why?"

"He'll insult me."

It turned out that Karin also saw them, the woman walked up to the two.

"Wow, you two know each other?" Karin folded her hands.

"He's my former secretary" replied Judis.

"Why don't you just get married?" karin's Proposal.

"What do you mean?" Nora begins to dislike Karin's words.

"He wants me to work together to damage his ex-wife's household and you want to take my daughter and her papa" he replied.

"I didn't take them but you gave them to yourself" he said.

Karin smiled cynically. "Rather than the two of you interrupting my life, mending away and being happy!"he left them both.

Nora slammed her body back into the cafe chair.

"She's the ex-wife of the man I want to be betrothed to."

"So, her ex-husband knew Sabrina too?"

"Very familiar with her," Nora emphasized her words.

The eyebrows of Judis shriveled. "I don't understand."

"The father's ex-wife was Michael's ex-lover at school" Nora explained. "Michael is her ex-husband" she continued.

"Oh, it's worth it that he refused to cooperate. He was afraid that Sabrina would come back to Michael" Judis guessed.

Nora chuckles. "He's afraid Michael's with me, and he won't dare touch the Star Hotel's heir man."

"I'm not going to give up on taking Sabrina" he said.

"Already, Sir. Better to retreat, live in peace" advised Nora.

Judis was still thinking about Nora's words. He looked at the ceiling of the hotel room. "Do I better back off?" muttered.

He got up and sat down, clutching his knees. "I'm sorry I made him sad" he said.

"Aarrghhhhh.I want him to make amends or just obsession," the thought continued to dance around in his head.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Before returning to town B, he decided to go visit Radit's family. In fact, Linda forbade him from meeting them.

He asked why, but his mother could not explain it. It made him wonder more.

Once there, he was greeted by Arman. The man was so happy to see the face of Judis. I think he wants to hug her.

Arman also asked Linda and Hendi. They talked to each other until they laughed together.

"It looks like Papa is so happy to meet Judis" Radit told Saskia.

"Yes, Mas. Usually Papa rarely laughs except with Aryo," said Saskia.

"I think Judis is your brother!" guess Radit.

"We have not found any accurate evidence of the Judis family, his parents were so secretive. Papa is also still covering up the real of us" Saskia said.

*

"Yudis, did your mother ever tell you about her past?"

"No, Om."

"He's very similar to someone" Arman said.

"It may just be a coincidence, Om."

"Yes, it could be!"

Judis went home and returned to B, not forgetting that he expressed his gratitude for the lunch.

"I'm sure it's you I've been looking for all this time!" Arman stared at the car of Judis out of his yard.
