"You been a long time?" ask Elle for a little chat. Reyvan's face was very flat and cold, to the point that Elle felt awkward while sitting opposite him.
"No."
"How are you?" Elle's still making small talk.
"I thought .. Alroy's state is the only thing you've hidden from me, Elle. But, apparently not. You also hid your family's past while in Spain. Besides those two things, what else are you hiding from me, Elle?" Reyvan stared hard.
"I .. i___" Elle stuttered. For the second time Reyvan met him with disappointment because of a secret that he had never previously revealed.
"Two years we've been in a relationship, whatever it is to me, I share it with you. But you're not doing the same thing. You hide things, even cover them up with lies."
"I'm sorry" whispered Elle with her head bowed.
"Just a few months you've known Maverick, but you've believed in him and shared all that with him. While I'm two years old, you don't believe me at all. Now I know who you really love and you think is special, Elle," Reyvan said.
"Rey, you misunderstood. It's not what you think it is" Elle said.
"Stop talking love and stop promising hope. I don't need any falsehood. Be happy with Maverick, I will be happy with others, with women who can appreciate me and consider me important in life." Reyvan's words managed to make Elle's eyes glaze over.
"Rey, listen to my explanation!" Elle grabbed Reyvan's arm, which had risen.
"Imagine if it happens to you, you know my secret from the person who is my partner. Happy or disappointed?" Reyvan looked at Elle intently. "I've loved you all the time, even after you've been married I still love you. But, I was like a fool when Maverick talked about you, because I didn't know anything. Imagine that, Elle!" continued.
"I was wrong, but I did it because I love you, Rey. I don't want you to know my flaws. I___"
"If your hope is that I only love your strengths, what kind of future past are you talking about? It is impossible for a marriage to work if each one only accepts the excess of the couple, while hiding the shortcomings also cannot be forever. Have you ever thought about marriage with me in the first place?" Again Reyvan cut off Elle's words.
"Here you go, I don't want to talk about this anymore. What you do is enough to give an answer. In the future we're just strangers who never knew" Reyvan said.
"Rey, don't say that!" pinta Elle on the sidelines of her cries.
"For me, you're no longer an important woman, Elle. So, what I did, it had nothing to do with you anymore, including working with Uncle Adriano. If it's beneficial to me, I don't care if he ever makes it difficult for you" Reyvan said, not paying any heed to Elle's words.
"Rey, you .. know Uncle?"
"Goodbye, Miss Zee."
Reyvan's answer made Elle stay in his place. There were no more words he could say, just tears that kept falling down his cheeks. Blind love makes him afraid to admit shortcomings and as much as possible to show advantages. However, without realizing it that is what triggers the injury and disappointed.
Meanwhile, Reyvan stepped away with a speck of seeping tears. In the heart is still love, but the wounds and disappointments that are etched have reached the limit. He could no longer endure a false love. There was already a Maverick who had his heart perfectly, that was how Reyvan thought.
"Letting go is hard, let alone forgetting. But, what's the point of surviving if my existence is already worthless." Reyvan sat in his head while looking at it. "But you calm down. I'm not that cruel to ally with your uncle for your destruction" he continued.
"Don't go, Rey!" elle whispered when Reyvan's body was no longer visible.
Elle's heart is broken, it hurts when a much loved man no longer wants to know her. So painful inside that he felt, Elle's body limp and almost collapsed. Luckily there was a burly hand that caught him, which then carried him in a warm embrace.
"Don't cry here, your sadness will be a spectacle of people" whispered the man with the scent of mint.
Elle did not answer, but according to him when the man who was none other than Maverick carried her and carried her into the car.
