Getting Married for Lying
166 - Call

Yoran was still staring at Vaya with great earnestness. Yoran really had to say what was on her mind at the moment.

Her divorce from Grace, which took place three years ago, was a turning point in Yoran's life. Especially when she found out that Grace never loved her. This was proven when Yoran learned of the affair by Grace.

Yoran's heart was really very hurt. She loves Grace but she doesn't love her at all.

Yoran is really disappointed to think that Vaya, who loves her, chose to retreat because she relented to Grace.

From that moment on, Yoran thought that she needed a woman who loved her. If Yoran had the chance to meet Vaya once more, she would not have wasted the opportunity.

His meeting with Vaya at this time was an unexpected one. Seeing the opportunity, Yoran finally ventured to invite Vaya to start a new beginning.

"How, Vaya?" ask Yoran.

Vaya really could only be speechless hearing Yoran's words. 

An instantaneous invitation made Vaya really very worried.

A man so admired, idolized, and loved for half his life suddenly invites him to start a new chapter of life.

Benak Vaya is soon haunted by sweet delusions as he and Yoran join hands along a path in the middle of a flower garden. But at the end of the path, stood the figure of Vier who blocked their journey.

Vaya shook his head quickly to disperse his reverie.

"What's wrong?" ask Yoran.

"Yoran, there's actually something I need to tell you" Vaya said.

Vaya finds it hard to tell the truth, but isn't honesty better than telling a thousand lies?

Vaya had enough lies to make his life turn upside down.

"Yoran, actually I'm not alone, but right now I'm alone" said Vaya.

"What do you mean, Vaya?" ask Yoran.

"Yoran, I'm actually married" Vaya replied.

Yoran was silent at Vaya's words. His heart even stopped beating. This fact was too sudden for Yoran. Three years have passed and it is only natural that Vaya finally chose to marry another man.

Yoran's heart melos found out that fact. Crumple it feels.

"But I am currently in a marriage without certainty" Vaya said full of bitterness.

"Vaya, what do you mean, I really don't understand," asked Yoran. "What do you mean by marriage without certainty?"

Vaya looked straight at Yoran.

"I married a man, but for some reason we had to separate and live each other's lives" Vaya replied.

Yoran sighed, Vaya's confession was really quite shocking.

"Who's that guy, Vaya?" ask Yoran.

"Vier" said Vaya.

Yoran turned her head left and right, circulating her gaze in all directions.

"Why are you wailing so, Yoran?" ask Vaya.

"I thought you saw Vier" replied Yoran.

Vaya grinned wryly.

"Yoran, the man I married was Vier" Vaya said.

"What-what?!" Yoran flabbergasted.

Vaya swallowed his saliva, his throat was unusually dry and choked.

"You're married to Vier?!" Yoran repeated.

Vaya nodded. Yoran needed a few seconds to digest the information she had just heard.

Yoran forced her brain to think fast. Given the very vivid details when Vier introduces a beautiful woman at their reunion.

"Vaya, isn't Vier married to his fiancee?" 

Vaya shook his head quickly.

"The woman Vier married was me" Vaya replied quickly.

"Vaya, are you kidding me?" ask Yoran.

Vaya again grinned full of bitterness.

"If only it were all a joke," Vaya replied still in a tone full of bitterness.

Yoran let out a sigh, the sigh that sounded unusually heavy.

Now it was Vaya's turn to sigh. The long breath that was held back bit by bit was as if an invisible hand was clutching his lungs.

"I also didn't expect to be able to marry Vier."

Yoran looked straight at Vaya.

"That's it, then what do you mean by saying that you live each other's lives?"

Vaya found it hard to answer Yoran's question. It was the same as making the wound in Vaya's heart bleed again.

"Vier is back with his fiancee" Vaya replied heavily.

Summing up all of that was based on one photo uploaded on the Missyu social media page.

"Kc... Vayas! How can?!" Yoran clucked.

"I think you must have known the answer, Yoran. Vier was just playing me," said Vaya.

Tears welled up in Vaya's eye patch and Vaya quickly wiped them off. He immediately sipped iced tea that tasted bland due to melting ice cubes.

Vaya's heart breaks whenever she thinks that Vier is just playing with her. 

Give him all the sweet things that in the end are just memories.

"Vaya" said Yoran.

Vaya looked back at Yoran.

"I'm not a guy who likes to play with women" Yoran said.

"I decided to get divorced from Grace because I realized that I wasn't a man who could make her happy. Despite trying to do the best I can, but still, if Grace wasn't happy with me, why would we stay together?"

"Keeping together only makes us hurt each other."

"Just like you, Vaya, instead of Vier hurting you with uncertainty, it seems like you should ask for certainty rather than continue to be played."

Vaya looked back at Yoran.

"I really don't mind if you ask me to help you. I'll hand over the legal counsel that will help you to separate from Vier."

Yoran took Vaya's hand and held it.

"Then, we can start everything from scratch."

Vaya was still staring at Yoran.

"Yoran, don't joke around" stop Vaya.

"Vaya, I'm not kidding" Yoran said.

They still look at each other.

"Vaya, really I never felt this confident with what I wanted to do" Yoran said.

"But Yoran, I even feel unworthy of you. I'm just a woman who doesn't have a special background" Vaya said.

"Vaya, as long as you really love me, that's more than enough for me" Yoran said.

Vaya could only fall silent at Yoran's words. The feeling of tightness squeezed Vaya's lungs again.

Vaya immediately recalled how much she had liked Yoran for almost half of her life.

How much he adored Yoran when he was still in school.

Looking at the figure of the crossbred young man who made him could only admire in silence. 

That was how Vaya who used to only be able to admire Yoran, stole a glance towards Yoran. Although many young men are targeted by Vaya's love revelations, only Yoran is so special.

Vaya even considers the expression of love to all his targets as a form of exercise to express his love for Yoran.

Training prepared her mentally before declaring her love for Yoran.

But suddenly the shadow of Vier burst into Vaya's mind.

Especially when Vier began to torture Vaya with insane punishments, threatening to kill the man whom Vaya dated. 

Vaya even decides to end his friendship with Yoran before they start everything.

Still fresh in Vaya's memory, how Vaya had to give up her chastity to Vier in order for the man to believe that Vaya was not a cheap woman who could sleep with another man.

Vaya pulls her hand from Yoran's.

"Vaya, don't worry. I'm willing to wait until you're completely ready" Yoran said.

"I'll be waiting for you, so we can make a fresh start."
