Let Me Love Your Wife (Not an Ex)
Maverick Confession


The sunlight is still warming, enveloping every inch of nature. The wind is still blowing, giving calmness in every exposure.


The order of life does not change, only Maverick's soul is shaken and seemed to die. The departure of Aurora, leaving an immeasurable pain. In fact, the pain was much deeper than Devara's loss.


A tiny figure who is almost never happy because of struggling with his illness, always imagined in the memory of Maverick. His smile, his voice, his funny behavior. Skinny body wrapped in a sweet parachute, it feels alive in the heart of Maverick.


"Aurora," Maverick's inner self as he gripped the wet mound of earth sprinkled with rose petals.


As the blowing wind caressed her face, a single tear drop fell back soaking her dull face. No matter how loud he was as a man, he couldn't help but cry when his little daughter left the world.


"Mas, we've been here a long time. Come home! You should also think about health." Elle patted Maverick on the shoulder, trying to give strength to her husband.


"Go home!" maverick replied very slowly.


Elle took a deep breath, then closed so that the tears did not fall, because there was too much that he let out. He doesn't want to get lost in the pain, Maverick desperately needs himself as a sharing friend. Whatever pain Elle felt, as much as she could endure in her stead.


"I'm going home, but with you" Elle said moments later.


I don't know how many hours they've been there, waiting for the mound of land where Aurora's resting place. One by one, the people who attended the funeral had gone home. In fact, Marissa was gone a few minutes ago. Elle knew persuading Maverick was very difficult, so was forced to tell her mother to go home first.


Shortly after Maverick refused Elle's invitation, nature seemed to mourn. The sunlight that had warmed up, was now covered with black clouds evenly throughout the entire expanse of space. Drizzle down drop by drop, wet the petals of roses are still fresh.


"Mas, it's gonna be raining soon. Let's go!" take Elle, I don't know how many times.


Maverick did not answer, just looking up and staring at the drizzle more and more. Finally, he got up and offered Elle's invitation.


The blue-eyed woman smiled with relief. Although the sadness in Maverick has not disappeared, but at least he was willing to leave the funeral.


"Patience to you, Mom. You have to be strong to deal with all this, there is me who will always accompany you," Elle said when they arrived in the car.


Hearing Elle's extremely ambiguous remark, Maverick turned his head and looked at her fixedly. To the extent that Elle misbehaved.


"Don't talk no-no. I married you only to Aurora" Maverick said, turning his eyes away. His heart was broken because of the loss of a beloved daughter, he no longer wanted to hope for something uncertain. Elle loves Reyvan, it's an undeniable reality.


Meanwhile, Elle instantly pursed her lips. He knows his words are between right and wrong. From the initial deal, Maverick will divorce her when Aurora doesn't need him anymore. Yet, I don't know. Looking at Maverick that is so fragile now, tucked deep enough pity. A feeling that made it heavy-hearted to leave the man.

The night has been long greeting. No more noise, just whispers of the wind that faintly rang out among the silence.


"Gee!" maverick sighs as his head gets sicker and dizzy. However, he did not want to stop sipping the drink. He wanted to forget all the bitter things in his life, despite knowing that it was only an instant, but clearly he needed a little time to calm down.


Not far from where Maverick was, Elle stood with a pushy look. It was heartless to see Maverick drunk until midnight.


"Mas!" Elle approached Maverick and clasped his hand. "You don't keep this up. Go to sleep, it's late!" continued.


There is no answer from Maverick's mouth, just******* weight that emits a concentrated aroma.


Elle took a deep breath. Maverick ignored him all day, after talking at noon there was no conversation between them. Elle thought it was because her husband was upset. However, there is another reason that escapes Elle's knowledge, namely feelings. Maverick deliberately avoids Elle so that later the strong heart to divorce him.


"Go! I want to be alone" Maverick said, shaking Elle's hand.


"No, Mas. Your circumstances are not fine, I cannot leave you alone" Elle replied firmly. Without further ado, he sat down next to Maverick.


"Go, Elle! Don't be so stubborn!" This time Maverick snapped a little.


"Once not fixed no, Mas. Either way you're my husband, I won't let you be alone."


Maverick's defense was blown away when he heard Elle's reply. Then, he put the bottle of drink that was still held. Then, it faced towards Elle with its fixed gaze. Not to forget also he held the two smooth arms with a little strong.


"I deliberately avoided, but why don't you understand?"


Elle frowned, not understanding Maverick's intentions.


"You don't get it either, Elle?" connect Maverick.


Elle shook weakly. Maverick's unusual gaze made him nervous and misbehaved.


"Because I love you, but the one you love is Reyvan. I love you, but circumstances force me to divorce you" Maverick said solemnly.


Elle flinched for a moment. Maverick's confession was shocking, he never thought before.


When Elle was still riveted in shock, Maverick brought his face closer and eroded the distance that had existed. In an instant, Elle's sweet lips were already within her brow.
