"Yes .. good. Compared to before, it's still a lot better now."
Deva's answer was a little ambiguous, and Kelvin was also well aware of it. However, it was a bit heavy for him to ask even more details.
There's still plenty of time, don't be in a hurry, Kelvin thought.
"Hopefully the future continues to improve and in accordance with what you expect," said Kelvin.
"Thank you." Deva smiled sweetly, and it presented its own thump in Kelvin's heart.
"If you ever need a sharing partner, I'm ready to be a listener, any time."
Deva nodded. His eyes radiated a happy twinkle. Although only an instant he talked to Kelvin— directly, but the loneliness in Deva's heart was a little filled.
All this time, he's been living in a state of pretence. Always smiling despite the gaping wound, the wound that still accompanies him to this day.
Not without reason Deva behaved like that, but because there is no place to share emotions. In the crowd that surrounds him, no one is willing to be friends—after knowing about his life.
That was why, after starting work at the Deva hospital became a private person. Talking and joking around only work, never once brought up personal problems.
Kelvin was the first person to make him do something outside of work.
'After knowing all about me, will he also stay away?'
One worry slowly ambushed in Deva's mind, which then eroded the sincere smile that had been etched sweetly on her lips.
"You don't mind if we meet again sometime?"
Deva looked up and for a moment looked at Kelvin. The question had just re-forged the hope that a few seconds ago he could tepis. Is Kelvin any different?
"Of course not." Deva smiled widely even though she was a little forced. The turmoil in his heart was undeniable, doubt and doubt continued to haunt.
While in front of him, Kelvin took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He also felt that something was wrong with him.
Deva, a simple woman's image. A woman who is very different from the women she has dated. In fact ... actually gives another meaning in conscience.

A small candlelight wiggled in the night wind. On top of the candle holder where he stood, he seemed to dance to accompany the romantic atmosphere around.
In the presence of a stretched swimming pool, a round dining table is arranged in such a way. Complete two seats laid out face to face. Each one was decorated with white lace, which at first glance seemed to contrast with the red rose on the table.
Not far from the place, a beautiful and glamorous woman commented on the wide smile on her red lips. The romantic dinner he had prepared. Not only the place, but also various dishes. Including a tart that says Riu's name.
"She must have liked it" Vale's inner self as she played the end of her hair, which was curly and simply stroked. Intentionally used to cover partially exposed shoulders and back.
Yes, the clothes Vale wore were indeed quite sexy that night. Besides being open at the top, her thighs are quite high. Not only that, Vale also deliberately applied thick makeup on his face, also using perfume with a sensual aroma. He purposely prepares everything to please Riu, who is going home tonight. After a full week of going to London—taking care of the transfer of ownership of the house with Annisa.
"It's okay to be late, what matters .. tonight will pay off," Vale muttered as he stared at the tart on the table. Yesterday the day after tomorrow was Riu's 38th birthday, and tonight was just a time to celebrate.
'I'll be home in ten minutes.'
Vale looked back at the message Riu had sent, just a moment ago. The more imaginable, the more reddened his cheeks. I don't know what they will do later, to treat the passionate longing of the past week.
"Mrs ... The master has arrived!"
Vale's daydreams were spoiled because of the voice of the waiter reporting behind him. Then, Vale turned his head and showed his elegant demeanor.
"Tell him if I'm here" Vale said.
"Okay, Madam."
Not long after, the waiter left Vale. Letting him alone with a fast beating heart. Riu .. ah her husband, always successfully broke her heart and feelings.
"Darling, you prepared this all ... for me?"
The voice that Vale longed for, finally re-indulged his ears. Even with a charming smile, back pleasing eyes that always imply longing.
With half a blush, Vale stepped closer to Riu. Makes a melodious beat with his high heels.
Meanwhile, Riu stared at the jelly with both raised eyebrows. Looking at the wife in this state, even to death will not be bored.
"Do you like it, honey?" Vale asked, as well as flirting. Evidently from his fingers that were so agile to caress Riu's jaw.
"I didn't expect, the surprise you said yesterday turned out to be this special," Riu replied as she caught Vale's fingers. Then, kiss him affectionately and long enough. As if he was not satisfied with the fragrant aroma that was there.
"It's been two days past your birthday, which may not be special. Especially ... This week we've never met."
Riu smiled as she tightly grabbed Vale's waist. Then, land a kiss on her red lips.
The initial intention is only short, failed miserably after tasting the sweet taste that has always been opium.
In a split second, the night wind blew very quietly, even with a candlelight dance. As if they are reluctant to disturb the activities of two people who are being drunk miss.
In fact, it is not enough in a matter of seconds either. In fact, in saying happy birthday, they interspersed with 'something'.
"Thank you for the surprise, I'm so happy. This is the most special birthday of my almost old age" Riu said after exchanging 'flavors' with Vale for a long time. Even so, he had yet to let go of the slender waist that was so fitting in his arms.
"Special surprise for a special person" said Vale. "Yes, let's go there! We're enjoying tonight together."
Without rebutting, Riu directly guided Vale towards a table full of romantic nuances. The second step is so friendly, showing off love under a light that is deliberately made dim.
Unfortunately, the beautiful scenery was a little disturbed. As neither had time to take place, Riu's phone rang. There was one call coming in who was out of nowhere.
A little annoyed, Riu reached out to him, finding out who the contact was. Kelvin, one name on his phone screen.
"Leave it. I call you later," Riu said as she placed her phone on the table, not forgetting to turn on the silent mode.
At first, Vale did not protest much. But after the phone came in for the fifth time, Vale spoke up.
"Just accept it, maybe there is something important" said Vale.
"Just disturb." Riu nagged, but also obeyed the word of his wife. Yes, take that call.
"Uncle, there's something important I need to talk to you about!" kelvin said from across there.
Riu pinched his temple for a moment. "I just arrived from London, haven't even had a shower. I'll call you later, at least .. in two hours."
"But, Uncle___"
"I'm still tired. You want to understand or we don't have to talk" Riu concluded, starting to show his frustration.
Silent. No answer from across, at least in a few seconds.
"Half an hour, Uncle. That's enough to clean up. It's important, I can't wait long. Please, Uncle!"
Without Riu giving an answer, the phone call has been terminated unilaterally. Riu could only clench and growl venting resentment.
How could he be given half an hour, while the dinner dish alone he had not touched in the slightest. Not to mention Vale who also had to be 'delayed'.
Ahh, Kelvin is a jerk!
Seriate...
