🌸Love 49 Cm🌸
The Part 44
**fear**
Leon sat on the cafe chair restlessly, his chest pounding. Maski was as strong as she could cover it, but the nervousness looked so real on her face.
For the first time since Alea left her, she would come back to know the news about the girl. Several times his blue eyes stared at the entrance of the cafe, hoping the person he was waiting for was there, but until the third glass of whisky ran out, Niko had not yet revealed her nose.
Previously they did promise to meet at this cafe, inexplicably he agreed. He thought, he just wanted to know the reason Alea came to Indonesia, that's all.
He once loved that girl very much.
While being preoccupied with his own thoughts, someone patted his shoulder from behind.
"Lo old man?"
Leon recognized the voice very well, the voice of his best friend.he immediately turned around and immediately wanted to curse, because he had waited so long. But when a pair of neutrals caught the figure of Alea who was already standing right behind him, making his mouth tightly clenched even to just curse. Dread was clearly on his face, but he quickly neutralized his attitude and stared intensely at the girl who had filled his days. There was no meaningful change in him, only that he looked so thin right now. It might be true, what Niko said, if Alea was sick.
However, the feeling of having been let down so deeply, making him throw away all yearnings, Leon returned with his cold attitude.
"For a long time no see" he said without looking at Alea, his hands were busy playing with a glass with alcohol in it.
The girl smiled, She did not answer Leon's question and instead pulled up a chair and sat down next to him.
"Take it for me!" alea's orders to the bartender in front of her.
Leon turned his head towards Alea, frowning for a moment, before finally sighing softly.
"You're sick! why drink alcohol?" unwittingly, Leon shows his attention.
Alea looked at Leon for a moment, before a smile curvature imprinted on his thin face. Leon is the same as before.
"You're still so considerate of me, but why did you suddenly get married and forget about me?" said Alea leisurely, his hand reaching for the glass and starting to drink it.
"Looks like you forgot, didn't you leave me?!"
"I thought you understood me, Leon." said ALEa staring at Leon's bead.
"You just left and now you're blaming me?"
Alea shook her head, grabbed her glass and went back to drinking it.
"You're not wrong, Leon. I was wrong."
"Good, if you understand." Leon plays ice in his glass.
Alea was silent, forcing a smile to cover lara in her heart.
For a moment they were silent, busy with their own thoughts.
The sound of cafe music is heard accompanying the silence between the two.
Without them realizing Niko had secretly left the cafe.
"Can we go back to what we used to be?" alea suddenly made Leon stop his hand from the glass, but did not take his eyes off.
"You're not in Leah's heart anymore, there's someone else."
"You lied to Leon! you still love me!" Alea grabbed Leon's hand, grasping it tightly.
Leon was startled for a moment, then pulled his hand."You're wrong, Lea, I'm married" Leon said as he stood up from his seat.
But just as she was about to turn around to step up, Alea held her back with a question.
"You don't want to know why I left?"
"No." Leon continued his steps, but suddenly Alea hugged him from behind. At once Leon was startled and tried to let go of Alea's hand, but the girl tightened her embrace.
"I'm sick, Leon." she said softly.
Leon was silent, waiting for Alea's next speech.
"I had breast cancer at the time and I didn't want you to know. That's why I left." Alea said as he sobbed.
As Leon was shocked to hear Alea's words, he twisted his body and grabbed the girl's shoulder in front of him.
"Why didn't you tell me that time?!" leon asked sharply as he looked towards the bowed Alea.
"I don't want to worry you, Leon, I'm sorry..."
Leon rubbed his face rough, suddenly guilt filled his chest.
"I knew you were on an important mission back then, and I didn't want to mess with your concentration." Alea continued her words, occasionally her thin hands wiped away tears with the back of the hand.
When they separated first, Leon was still a member of black rock as a hitman, when he was on a mission to steal important information as a secret agent of a country.
"You know? how devastated was I when you left? do you know how my world is after that? you left a wound so deep in Lea!" Leon must go back to remembering his past which he had been trying to bury deeply in the bottom of his heart fan bitterness was re-created.
"I'm sorry.forgive me!" Alea hugged Leon tightly back, burying her head on the chest of the field she had always longed for.
Leon froze, not knowing what to do. Her unfinished past is back when she married Aila.
As she was deep in her own thoughts, Alea suddenly collapsed. Quickly his hand grabbed the girl and propped her up.
"You're not papa?!" tanyanya's worried.
Alea shook his head slowly." Just a little dizzy." she replied slowly.
"I'll drive you home!" without hearing Alea's reply, Leon lifted Alea's body towards his car.
Leon could feel the girl's body being so light because of Alea's thinness.
"Where are you staying?" ask Leon when they're in the car.
"At the Angsana hotel." Alea replied briefly, her face looking so pale.
"I'll drive you there."
Leon then spurred his car at a moderate pace, unceasingly his eyes staring worriedly at Alea who was sitting limp beside him. How could he forget the woman, Alea once filled her lonely days, cheering her on and accompanying her while she was at the lowest point of her life.
Arriving at the hotel, Leon immediately held Alea who was still seen limp into his room.
After putting it on the bed and covering it with a blanket, Leon stood up, but Alea immediately grabbed his hand.
"Don't go, don't leave me!" said Alea.
Leon took a deep breath, looking at Alea for a moment, suddenly a sense of pity came toward him.
He pulled out a chair and sat down beside the bed.
"Sleep, I'll accompany you."
Alea nodded with a smile, she was happy that Leon still loved her.
the girl then closed her eyes while clasping Leon's hand tightly as if she didn't want to take the hand off again.
"How sick are you now?" ask Leon.
"I'm better."
"But you look pale and limp."
Leon was silent, just staring at Alea with a hard-to-art look.
"I'm no papa, calm down" said Alea, who understood Leon's concerns.
"You are stupid" said Leon while rubbing the head of Alea whose hair had begun to sparse, because of the loss due to chemotherapy he was undergoing.
Alea smiled, then straightened up.
"Don't go, I'm afraid of myself. You know I don't have anyone here" Alea said, playing Leon's hand.
Leon sighed, he was well aware of her married state, but leaving Alea alone made him unbearable. He then nodded.
Instantly Alea smiled happily, there was a happy fur drenching her cheeks.
"There's something I want to show you" Alea said.
"What?"
The girl then unbuttoned her blues one by one, Leon was shocked but chose to wait for what Alea was doing.
After all the buttons were removed, he then removed the blues and left the bra alone. Then he took out a foam from inside the bra and took it out.
Leon was surprised, but still chose silence, until Alea took off the bra she was wearing.
Busts that were once a pride as a woman, are now gone. The doctor must remove both, or the cancer will spread throughout his vital organs. She has no breasts now and that makes her imperfect as a woman.
"Now our breasts are the same, right? I don't need to wear a bra anymore" Alea said trying to smile, covering the bitterness inside her chest.
At once Leon grabbed his head and hugged him tightly. Next to what was heard was a sobbing from Alea's lips. He poured out every taste in the chest of the man he so longed for.
There was no word between the two, until Alea's cries subsided. Guilt was now coming towards Leon, he could not imagine how Alea had been through her pain alone all this time.
"I'm sorry, you have to go through it yourself" Leon said with regret.
**********
Aila was still awake when the clock was pointing at 23.30, it was almost midnight, but Leon had not yet returned home. She seemed to be very anxious, repeatedly trying to contact her husband, but her number was always inactive.
Aila asked Davin, but the man only said that her husband was still in the office due to a lot of work and would not be coming home for the night. Aila tried to understand, even though she thought it was odd. Leon never deactivated the device, but why hasn't he been in contact since?
Aila was trying to get rid of all her negative thoughts, probably right, Davin said, her husband was busy and had to overtime.
Because she could not sleep, Aila thought to go out just looking for fresh air. While passing through the dining room, he still sees Lisa there. The girl seemed to be cleaning up something. Aila approached him immediately.
"It's late, why isn't sister sleeping?"
Lisa was startled and immediately turned her head, she did not expect her nonaanya had not slept at this late hour.
"Miss not sleeping?"
Aila smiled, "I can't sleep, brother."
"Why do I do something?"
"No, sis. Thanks."
Aila then pulled out a chair and sat herself there.
"So why are you still working?"
Lusi smiled, "I don't work miss, just can't sleep either. Instead of being silent, I prepared the menu for tomorrow."
Aila nodded her head understanding. She spent more time talking to her husband's sister and they seemed to fit in, now they're becoming more and more familiar.
Feeling bored there, Aila invites Lisa to go to the inner garden.
At first the girl refused, but later agreed to her brother-in-law's invitation. After all they were both confined within that luxurious palace, a little consoling themselves might not hurt.
While walking towards the park, his ears caught someone talking in the bar room. The room was indeed close to the park.he immediately signaled to Lisa to be quiet, although not understand, the girl obeyed Aila's orders. Over and over, she heard a familiar voice that belonged to Davin and Serkan, one of her husband's friends was talking.
"Who really is Alea coming?!" ask serkan.
"Yes, that's why you're there now. Alea is sick, he said."
"What pain? suddenly say now come, keep getting sick?"
"I don't know for sure, but you said Alea had cancer."
"What's the matter, vin?"
"Say the hell is it.Even why my hunch is not good."
"What's so bad?"
"You know what you loved Alea like? but now you're married......In the future, I have a bad feeling."
"You're really Vin, but I got a chance to get his wife's ungil, right, ha ha."
"So your words are serkan!"
"Handest, Davin. I want to see who Leon is leaning toward, his wife or Alea."
"Okay, "
Hearing their talk, Aila's body felt instantly empty, but all her strength held her back to stay upright. She was not surprised to hear the name of ALEa, but heard the fact that now her husband was spending the night with his ex-lover made her heart sick, sick and not bleeding.
Seeing the change in Aila's attitude, Lisa became worried, even though she did not really understand the conversation of the two people, but Lisa understood it was not something that was encouraging.
"Sorry sister, I want to go back to the room" said Aila.
"It's okay, miss, let me drop off."
Lisa understood what was going on, without asking her to flank Aila's arm, the girl was still limp and uninspired.
Aila was sitting limp beside the bed, she thought running around somewhere.
Even when Lusi said goodbye, he was still with his daydream.
Why did he know, if Leon ever loved a woman before him. They had become husband and wife, but she did not understand anything about her husband's past. He was too busy enjoying happiness to forget the pain that might come.
Aila inhaled a deep breath of air to dispel the sudden tightness, dispelling all her bad thoughts and trying to calm herself down.
She assured herself that everything would be fine, but her little heart said something else.
Her husband even deactivated his phone because he didn't want to be disturbed, what exactly was going on?
He was confused, but did not know how. If Leon always put himself first, now he prioritizes other women.
She was once banished by her parents, could she be thrown away by her husband again?
A feeling of fear suddenly approached him. He just felt like he had a family, would they leave him again?
Aila's crying. The fear of all the fear within him was, a feeling of being wasted.
Seriate....
Honestly, I write this part is so difficult because my own feelings are more inclined to the main character, but as a writer, we should not be favoritism. I want all the characters in this story to be strong, not just as the originator of the conflict continues to disappear.
So, sorry if it doesn't match what you expected.
this is also written while bombay that.hik hik.
