Love Above the Heart
- Explanation -

"Don't call me baby!!!" Gia said a little screamed.

Erick and Arga were surprised to see Gia's angry expression. But after that Arga instead smiled again briefly because the words of Gia just represented his heart.

Erick exhaled, he tried to escape because he realized Gia's attitude is not free from Erick's own mistakes because it has opened the door for someone to enter his life that is Mikhayla.

Erick understands Gia's anger, because all this time Gia knew Erick was reluctant to never even get that close to a woman. Even to dinner together.

But actually, Gia does not know the reason Erick did it. It was all so he could find Gia.

But after he met Gia in front of his eyes like this. Erick realized that with Micah even made things worse between the two of them.

"Well, now I'll ask you!"

Gia nodded. Without looking at Erick's face. He was still angry at Erick's behavior.

"Who is he?" Erick asked as he pointed right at Arga.

Arga who from earlier stood leaning against the wall while crossing, only let out a smirk from the tip of his lips because it was appointed by Erick. He underestimated Erick.

"In, she's Arga" Gia replied nervously.

"I didn't ask what his name was. You must know what I mean, Gia!"

Gia looked at Arga's face that looked indifferent. It was like asking Arga for approval to agree on the answer that would come out of his mouth.

Arga just shrugged his shoulders a sign of not knowing what to answer to Gia. It's up to Gia. That's the Arga expression that Gia read.

"Arga is. she is a person of value to me right now" replied Gia who was initially hesitant but suddenly confident.

Erick is not out of thought for Gia's answer that comes to his hearing at this time. He tried to filter the words again so as not to hurt his heart.

While Arga was even more shocked to hear Gia's words. But somehow his heart felt so happy if it was true that Gia thought of him that way. He again smiled at Gia who was now also looking at him.

The sight made Erick's heart hot as doused with gasoline and Arga's smile on Gia in front of his eyes was a lighter that made Erick's heart burn.

"Prophe Erick, Patience! This action is only Gia's reply to your rash actions" Erick's inner self-reinforced.

"Well, I don't want to talk about the unimportant." Said Erick after a moment of silence. Erick glanced at Arga briefly as an explanation that what he meant was unimportant was Arga.

Arga replied to Erick with a smile while shaking his head.

"I'll go home first, I'll take a shower. I haven't been home all night" said Arga deliberately heating up Erick.

Erick is silent but he needs another explanation later from Gia about the whereabouts of Gia and Arga last night, because from the words Arga means they both did not go home each night.

"alright. Thanks very much. Say hello to your mother!"

Arga nodded slowly and left Erick and Gia.

After Arga's departure, Erick approached Gia's seat. Trying to persuade and calm her.

"Me, me.." Erick started to speak.

"Ask what you have in mind!" Gia answered with her acuh.

"I know about your situation, why did you leave me, Gia? you are pregnant with my son." Erick said softly already not full of emotions like before. He now said as if very carefully afraid of hurting Gia.

But Gia did not answer, Erick's question made him duck and sobbed.

Erick is surprised to see Gia, but Erick has tried to ask very carefully so that Gia is not like this. But Erick seems to have the wrong question.

"Why? Why are you crying? I'm asking for your explanation, Gia. How's condition? Our kid? how old are you?' ask Erick.

"I'm sorry, I'm not being frank with you. Me, I covered this up and went to avoid you. I'm afraid of Erick!" Gia replied that now it is not rigid anymore to Erick.

Gia continued as she pleased and now Gia looked at Erick's face which was also staring at her.

Erick caught a twinkle of grief in the eyes of Gia. He hesitates but finally embraces Gia who is beside him. Gia's been making him feel like he's been crazy for almost two months. Gia whom he misses so much.

Erick inhales deeply the distinctive aroma of Gia which is very soothing and soothing in his sense of smell.

"What are you afraid of? There's me!"

"I'm afraid of you!"

"Me?" Erick asked in astonishment as he pointed to himself.

Gia nodded as she removed Erick's hand from her shoulder.

"I'm afraid you won't accept the truth. I'm afraid you're rejecting my son!"

"Wait, wait! You mean, you're leaving because you're afraid I didn't admit to the kid? You're afraid I'm running away from my responsibilities. Is that? it's not just your son, but it's our son, Gia!" Erick.

Erick looked at the silent Gia. Erick could conclude that Gia was saying Erick's words.

"Honey, I can't possibly not admit my own flesh and blood. It's all my fault. I'm responsible for you and the child you bear"

"You shouldn't have gone through the burden yourself, baby, it's both of us's fault. We have to endure it together. Not in a separate way. You know me so well, Gia, I can't be like that!" Erick.

"But I doubt"

"Any doubt? Do you think doubting me makes you happy? It is because of doubt that you lose everything. And I lost you too!" Erick.

Gia got up from her seat, she crossed her arms, looking the other way. Look at the ceiling or whatever you want don't look Erick in the eye. That's his weakness.

"Yes, no need to be discussed and questioned again, anyway-"

"What's? What is not to be discussed? This should all be discussed Gia. Until it's over!"

"Come on! If you don't want to talk about it, let me find out for myself"

"Mmm, where are you going? You wanna find out what you're about?"

"I don't like you like this Gia. I told you I knew about your pregnancy. And if you don't want an explanation, you come with me to see the doctor now. I want to know my son's situation! I want to know how old you are!"

Again Gia was silent. He was confused as to what to say to Erick. His own heart still needs to be strengthened. How could he tell Erick at this moment

Gia breathed out slowly.

"Alright, you listen carefully! I've lost it. My son, mmm I mean our son. I couldn't save her life and let her grow in my womb again" said Gia slowly as she stretched her own heart and stroked her stomach, which now had no life in it.

Erick was surprised, he approached Gia who started to shed tears of regret.

"Why Gia? Why is it gini?" Erick asks Gia for another explanation while hysterically shaking both of Gia's shoulders.

Gia silently looked at Erick. The man he really misses is in front of his eyes. He wanted to strengthen himself in the arms of Erick but he expressed his intention because he saw Erick who actually needed to be strengthened.

Before long, Erick suddenly sat down at Gia's feet. Erick was crying, Gia didn't look wrong. Erick cried while shuffling his hair. His face was red as he let out words that drained and stirred Gia's heart.

"No way! No" Erick shook his head as he continued to cry like he was lamenting something.

"You're lying to me, Gia. Don't hide my son, my flesh and blood from me!" Erick was angry.

Finally Gia relented, she could no longer put up her Ego here. Not only was he saddened by the loss of a child in his womb but Erick was hysterical as a madman because he felt it was his flesh and blood.

Gia crouched down holding both Erick's cheeks, looking into his eyes deeply.

Erick was crying. Gia never even saw Erick like this.

"Why? I've never even patted your stomach! I've never known how it grew up in here either!" Erick asked while pointing at Gia's stomach.

"Why Gia? Does he not want a father like me? Or am I not worthy of having a child? I love you Gia. Why don't you give me permission to know about my own son. Now he's gone before I even saw him!"

"I do regret my actions and sins. But I'm excited about the kid. It will bind our relationship! And despite my mistakes, I'm very happy Gia. For you have my flesh blood!

Gia decides to hug Erick strengthening Erick and strengthening herself.

"I know, I'm sorry. I was not aware of my hasty attitude last night when I saw you even cause a disaster for the fetus in my womb."

"It's all my fault!" Said Gia again.

A drop after another of Gia's tears flowed. He again regretted his careless actions.

Before long Erick's phone rang indicating there was an incoming call.

Erick and Gia are still the same. With Erick sitting limp and Gia hugging him from the side.

Gia wanted to take off her hug on Erick, but Erick held Gia's hand. Erick reached into his pants pocket with his other hand to grab his phone.

Erick stared at Micah's name on the phone screen. And clucked in annoyance. Refused the call. He put his phone back in his pants pocket.

Silent. The two of them only felt the roar of each other's breath. Until the ringing on Erick's phone sounded for the second time.

Erick did the same. Rejecting the call from Micah who inexplicably continued to interfere.

"Have aja. Who knows what's important!" Gia said as she left from Erick's side.

Gia was about to walk to the kitchen, get Erick a drink to help calm Erick down.

But only two steps of his feet. Erick stood up and grabbed him from behind.

"Nothing is more important now than you!" He spoke very softly in Gia's ear.

****

Erick is sitting in Gia's house because Gia kicked him out. Gia's about to take a shower. And Gia's worried that Erick is still inside.

Gia doesn't want to make any more mistakes with Erick. That's enough in the past. Because of his life which he now considers a new leaf.

Erick understands and he is also determined to himself that he will not do the wrong thing as he once did. He would have had that relationship if Gia had been his wife.

Enough of the mistakes of the past. Although every time Erick sees Gia, he somehow suddenly feels bad. Erick does not want to be hypocritical, his Gia is indeed very tempting his maleness soul.

Gia finished her shower. He wears a plain black shirt and jogger pants. Her hair was wet with the smell of shampoo. Her face was not polished make-up and the fragrant soap gushed from her body that smelled in Erick's nose.

Erick looked up at Gia's scent. He saw Gia standing next to his seat.

"Aren't you taking a shower? Take a shower in noh!" Gia said to Erick who was just smiling.

"You live here by yourself. Are you happy?" Erick asked Gia.

Gia walked over and sat down next to Erick. He looked at Erick who was also staring at him. Gia felt that Erick's question was heavy enough for her to answer.

Gia smiling.

"You yourself? Are you happy without me? Gia asked Erick.

Erick shook his head weakly.

"I'm even a crazy person without you" Erick replied softly with a smile.

"I can't really do it without you, Anggia!" Added Erick again.

Gia had guessed Erick's answer. Gia clasped her own fingers.

"You know where I got pregnant? The question was asked earlier by Gia.

"From your mother"

Gia looked up at Erick in disbelief.

"Seriously, I know from your mother. I'm waiting for you every day in front of your parents' alley, until I can't take it anymore, so I decided to come to your parents' house"

"Keep, I saw my testpack. He said it must have you!"

Again Gia was stunned to hear Erick's answer. How could Gia forget to have left the Testpack at home.

"That means my family knows I'm pregnant?"

"Huum, I was even accused of running and hiding you with your mother and father!" Erick said again.

Gia smiled again.

"You met dad? I miss you so much, Dad. Even though my mother and Nissa miss me, too. But my father is different. Because dad is rarely at home" said Gia sparkling.

Erick saw the twinkle, and Erick felt his Gia was back. Gia's tone of speech and grammar in Erick was the same as before. Non-rigid. And Gia easily told him what his heart was. Like at the moment.

"I miss you, Gia" Erick said honestly.

"I don't want to talk about that!"

"Even I miss you so much! The word Erick again emphasized the word very much in his sentence.

"Would you like some lunch? Let me buy ya!" Gia tried to shift the conversation, though,

Erick smiled at Gia's clumsy behavior with his discussion.

"I don't want to buy food. Are you making me?"

"Hmmm, okay. I think there's still ingredients for me to cook"

Gia leaves Erick for the kitchen. Erick was still sitting on the floor staring at the situation around Gia's rented house which was fairly comfortable. A lot of kids playing.

Erick watched the children while occasionally smiling in memory of his childhood, which rarely gained freedom. His childhood only had to satisfy the demands of others.

Ringing on Erick's phone again sounded, he saw the name "Frans" on the screen.

"Where are you, rick? When are you going home?" frans' voice from across there.
