Love Without Memory
Advice from Evan

After watching Aleea from afar, Evan then got out of his car and walked over to Aleea.

Seeing Evan coming, Aleeapun waved his hand with a smile.

"Finally you're coming, I'm leaving now!" tika said as she moved from her seat.

"Are you sure you can handle this on your own, Tika?" ask Aelea.

"Look, this is just small items, just continue to buy other items and immediately take them to the shophouse" Tika replied.

"Well, I'll buy the other stuff and take it to the shop with Evan" Aleea said.

After saying goodbye, Tikapun left, leaving Aleea and Evan there.

"Thank you for coming, Evan, Tika has to go to take care of other things and bring some of the things we've bought, now I have to buy other things and take them to the shophouse," aelea.

"I'll accompany you and drive you to the shophouse" Evan replies.

Aleea smiled by pointing her thumb at Evan. Aleea and Evan then searched for some items Aleea needed according to the list Aleea and Tika had made.

Evan also gave Aleea some recommendations and suggestions as Aleea confusedly determined what kind of item she needed.

After spending some time there, all the things Aleea needed were already purchased. Aleea and Evan then left the place to go to the shophouse, followed by the pick up driver who was carrying a lot of the big stuff Aleea had bought.

Arriving at the shophouse, all the items Aleea bought were immediately taken down from the pick up and brought inside the shophouse.

"So this is the place?" evan asked while looking around.

"Yes, this is where I'm going to start my new business with Tika, what do you think Evan is?" reply Aleea.

"Mmmm... I think this is quite strategic, here close to the campus and office area, surely the rent is also expensive, right?"

"It's more expensive, but I think it will be comparable to the results later, because in the other place I think the location is less strategic," Aleea replied.

"Hopefully this is a good start for Aleea and you should remember to always call me if you need anything, okay?"

Aleea nodded her head with a smile.

"I will always trouble you, Evan" Aleea said, taking her steps up the stairs.

"Come here, you'll have to see what's on the second floor" Aleea said, leading Evan to follow Aleea up to the second floor.

On the second floor, there is a room and a spacious balcony with tables and chairs facing the highway.

"This is going to be my favorite spot here!" aelea said, taking herself to sit there, followed by Evan sitting next to Aleea.

"What room is in the back?" evan asked while pointing at the room behind him.

"I don't know for sure, but maybe I'll stay here and occupy the room" Aleea replied.

"Living here? what about Nathan? does he approve?" ask Evan.

"I don't need Evan's approval, doesn't he already don't care about me!" reply Aleea.

"I know Evan," said Aleea cutting Evan with a smile, but his eyes were glazed over.

"I'm sorry Aleea, I didn't mean to make you sad" Evan said.

Aleea simply shook her head then raised her head so that her tears would not drip.

Evan then patted Aleea softly on the shoulder, trying to make Aleea stronger in the face of her life path that was not to her liking.

"You can tell me anything, Aleea, you can probably laugh and smile like you're okay in front of everyone, but I know if you keep the sadness in your heart" Evan said.

"Crying only makes me weaker, Evan" Aleea replied with her voice starting to hoarse.

"No Aleea, I know you're a strong woman, you can hold on to your grief very well and give a sincere smile to everyone, even though your heart is hurting, not everyone can do it Aleea" Evan said.

"Sobbing won't make you weak, you have to cry to finish your grief Aleea and with me you can blow it all away without holding it back" Evan continued, brushing a strand of Aleea's hair.

Aleea just kept quiet, trying hard to be able to endure her sadness. But no matter how hard he tried, his eyes still felt sore until both eyes were unable to stem his sadness after long enough he pretended to be fine in front of Tika.

Evan then shifted his sitting position, leaning Aleea's head on his shoulder with one hand grasping Aleea's hand.

Evan just kept quiet, letting Aleea cry as much as possible to resolve her grief.

After feeling calmer, Aleea then wiped away the remaining tears on her cheeks and raised her head from Evan's shoulders, making Evan instantly relinquish his hand to Aleea.

"I'm sorry Evan, I've always been like this in front of you" Aleea said with a long sigh.

"There's no need to apologize Aleea, once you're satisfied crying, you should really smile because you're happy, not because you're pretending, I'm sure everything will be fine after this," evan rubbed Aleea's head.

"Thank you, Evan" said Aleea, who was only greeted with a smile by Evan.

"I'm sorry if I don't agree with what you said earlier Aleea, I know how you're related to Nathan right now, but leaving him won't solve Aleea's problem" Evan continued.

"Until when should I stay with Evan? he doesn't even love me anymore and has already slapped me twice, do I have to wait for another slap from him?" ask Aelea.

"I understand that must be a painful thing for you Aleea, but may I give you some advice?"

Aleea simply kept silent by bringing her gaze to Evan, as if waiting for the advice Evan would tell her.

"One of Nathan's vices is his selfishness, but behind it he is a man who does not give up easily and will always try to get what he wants, if you walk away from him it will only make him even more angry with you" Evan said.

Aleea just kept quiet, listening to Evan.

"My advice, stay with Nathan, live your life the way you want without leaving that house, don't care about Nathan but don't do the things Nathan doesn't like, things will get more complicated if Mr. Nathan's people find out about you two Aleea, you know what I mean, right?" continued Evan.

Aleea was still speechless, she recalled Nathan's words to her just a moment ago.

"Evan was right, Nathan's parents would have involved Evan if they knew my relationship with Nathan wasn't okay, I couldn't have let that happen" Aleea said.

"I will always be there for you Aleea, so please stay put, I will also try to resuscitate Nathan if his attitude towards you is a big mistake," evan said with Aleea's hand on the table.

Aleea was silent, staring at his hand that was within Evan's grasp.
