Let Me Still Love You

Let Me Still Love You
That photo


Tok ... tok ....


Bella knocked on Rey's door. But there is no reply from inside. Bella knocked on the door again. But, again, he got no response.


Bella reached for the door handle of the room and opened it. Rey didn't lock the room. Bella put her foot in. At his sight Rey was asleep in bed. Bella approached Rey and sat down on the edge of the bed.


Rey fell asleep while hugging a photo. Bella was curious about the photo of who was actually being embraced by her husband. Bella moved the man's hand and took the photo.


Seen there is a photo of a woman with her straight hair that is being diluted, and her sweet smile that adorns her beautiful face. Yes, it is a photo of Kia, a photo of her ex-boyfriend, as well as her own best friend.


Bella couldn't bear the pain. Bella shed her tears watching her husband sleep while hugging another woman's photo.


Rey who heard the sound of the sobbing of someone immediately woke up. He finds Bella crying while holding a picture of Kia. Rey woke up from her sleep.


"Rey, let's get down! The food is ready." Bella averted her gaze and removed the remains of her tears. He didn't want Rey to see him crying like this, but what's okay, Rey already saw him.


Bella gets up from her seat leaving Rey, but Rey's hand has already pulled Bella's hand, which makes her sit back on the bed.


"Bella, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you at all" Rey said, holding Bella's chin and directing her face to look her in the eye.


"I wanted to throw away all the pictures of Kia, but I felt a little sleepy, so I went to bed first" Rey explained. He had indeed wanted to throw away the photos of Kia, so that there were no more memories of the woman in his heart. But, Bella could not believe it, she was still crying.


"Bella, trust me. I really wanted to throw away all those photos" Rey said again because Bella was still crying.


"Are you sure you're not lying?" bella asked, Rey nodded.


"I'm sorry, I'm hurting Bella again" Rey pulled Bella into her arms, and repeatedly kissed her on the top of her head.


"Remove your tears! after that we go downstairs to eat. Pity the mother from earlier is waiting for us," Rey said as she took off her embrace from Bella and removed the remains of tears from the woman's cheeks.


Bella went from her seat to the bathroom to wash her face, so that she did not suspect that she had finished crying.

Rey and Bella go downstairs and join hands to the dining table. Looked over there, Miss Shinta was waiting for them.


"Why are you guys so long?" shinta asked when she saw Rey and Bella had just come down.


"What's wrong with you, honey? you're crying, aren't you?" Ms. Shinta no longer questioned why they had been down for so long, seeing Bella's eyes blushing a little like the one who had finished crying.


"Why is mom still a sign? though I've repeatedly washed it with water earlier," Bella's mind panicked.


"No Ma'am! Bella just got dust in. Maybe because Rey's room has not been occupied for a long time, Bu," said Bella while rubbing her eyes.


"Ooh so, has the medicine been given yet?" Bella also nodded.


"Yes, let's sit down! Fast at eating his food, then the cold hunt is no longer good at eating," said Shinta Bu.


Rey and Bella sat down on their bodies.


"Mom, where is Bi Siti? why didn't Rey see him?" ask Rey.


"Bi Siti is on leave, her son is sick,"


"What's the sick kid, Mom?" ask Rey.


"Just have a fever, at most tomorrow can go back to work." Said Ms. Shinta.


"What are you doing in Bi Siti?"


"Why are you now looking for her assistant?"


"Bella doesn't want Mom, Rey does it" Bella said.


"Yes Mom, pity Bella if you have to take care of such a big house alone," said Rey.


"You've already told me that you're staying here with your mother, but you don't want to live alone in your home" Shinta said.


"Mother ... Rey will also have to be independent Mom, Rey is married, Rey does not want to always stay with her mother and ngerepotin mother," said Rey.


"Mom never bothered you, I love it when you live here,"


"But Bu-" Bella instantly cuts out Rey's words.


"Rey, that's it! Ma'am, we can often play here to see mom" Bella said.


"Promise yes, you should take the time to play here often,"


"Yes ma'am, we promise."


"Later let me ask Bi Siti , there are or not her friends who want to work at your home" said Ms. Shinta. Rey and Bella just nodded.


They resumed eating them, no one could be heard talking there. There was only the sound of plates and spoons clashing against each other.

On the living room sofa, Rey looks to be sleeping with Bella's thighs. Bella sat holding Rey's hair and ruffled her.


"Bella, I'm sorry about that, '" Rey said, looking at Bella's face.


"Rey,"


"Yes,"


"That's it, don't talk about it anymore!" said Bella. Rey nodded while still feeling guilty.


"The romantic couple this one," said Ms. Shinta who had just come out of her room.


Bella tells Rey to get up, but Rey hugs her wife's waist.


"Mother's jealous, huh?" ledek Rey while immersing her face into Bella's flat stomach, which made the woman feel amused.


"You know where this tiger cub is, honey?" shinta asked Bella. Bella just laughed.


"Mother, it's good that the child himself said tiger child," said Rey who immediately saw his mother.


"Yes you are like a tiger child, spoiled at all your wife," said Ms. Shinta.


"Where is a tiger cub as handsome as Rey," Rey replied arrogantly.


"Handsome from where, it's scary" said Ms. Shinta, raising her shoulders as if she was scared.


"It's creepy, it's adorable, Mom," said Rey, winking her eyes. Bella just laughed at the mother-daughter debate.


Bella didn't think Rey had that side. Rey who usually looks cold and flat if with other people. But, no one ever knew that Rey was childish in front of her mother.
