Dion squeezed Sarah's fingers firmly, as if to meld her feelings together with the feelings of the girl in front of her.
"I don't need you to say, you love me now, but give me a chance to prove, I seriously want to be with you" Dion wiped Sarah's tears with both of her thumbs.
"I'm willing to wait for you, until you can love me. It's just that I asked for a place in your heart, for me to wait until that time comes." Speak to Dion softly.
"I'm afraid you'll wait a long time" Sarah sighed.
"I'm used to waiting, it's not a problem for me." Dion's smile was so wide as to calm the storm in Sarah's heart.
"If you ask me to wait, I will stand wherever you tell me to wait.
Just give me a chance to be your guardian, I promise to be the lover that will always be in every season of your life"
Dion patted Sarah's back and reassured her.
Sarah nodded her head while wiping her own wet cheeks.
"What do you mean by nodding? Does that mean you accept me?" Dion squinted his eyes, hoping.
Sarah nodded despite some hesitation.
"Take me as your girlfriend?" Dion made sure again, to convince himself.
Sarah nodded again.
"Seriously, Cay?" Dion glared at Sarah.
"Yes.iyaaa!"
Dion stood up from his seat, with an excited expression. She almost jumped in and hugged Sarah, but she immediately stopped. The two waiters who delivered the menu of their orders both seemed misbehaved and confused by Dion's behavior.
"Oh, please.put it on the table." Dion blushed and sat back down.
Sarah laughed at Dion's face.
After the servants had served food on the table, Dion blinked his eyes at Sarah.
"Now can I call you cay..kayang"
Sarah glared at Dion.
"I'm still somebody's wife!" Sarah shrugged her shoulders and took the food into her plate.
"It doesn't matter you're someone's wife, what's important is you
I am now" Dion blinked his eyes mischievously again at Sarah.
"Don't call me so ah, it's not good to hear!" sarah protest.
"Yes, back to Cay again then"
Sarah sneered at Dion's joke.
They both enjoy dinner on the rooftop like lovers who are kasmaran.
Spend a few hours enjoying a romantic dinner while enjoying the bright and magnificent night view from the top of the building.
Tonight was bright, the stars were emitting brilliant light, truly a beautiful sight.
Several times Sarah was stunned, a glimpse of one night on the hotel rooftop with Raka after their wedding day.
it was almost the same sight that night.
Sarah could not shake the old memories, how the two of them, spoke awkwardly and tensely.
Given how Raka made a pact with him to run a marriage charade.
And under the same star, tonight she made a pact with a different person, having a relationship that was also without any clear basis, except that Dion felt love for her.
Sarah feels destiny is really playing tricks on her.
How ironic!
...***...
Dion and Sarah were standing in the hallway, right in front of Sarah's apartment door.
Before Sarah opens the door to her apartment with a cardlock in her hand, Sarah turns to Dion.
"It's getting late.I think you're enough to get me here, Yon..."
"Now it's almost eleven in the evening, I think you should go home" Sarah said later.
"But I don't want to go home yet, usually Grace and I can talk to you till midnight" Dion frowned, hearing Sarah's blatant expulsion.
"The situation is different, aren't we just friends now?"
"Because we're more than just friends, things are more natural, right?"
Sarah shook her head with glaring eyes but made her look more like a Barbie doll.
"Because we're no longer friends, then it's not natural that you've been in my apartment too long let alone late at night like this"
"Well, how much better to be a friend than a girlfriend, the rules are so much" Dion grumbled with a funny mimic.
"Truly, back to being friends?" Sarah pulled the corner of her lips so they were threatening.
"Joking Cay! Just a girlfriend..." Dion cupped his palm in front of his chest in a cute pleading manner.
Sarah chuckles at Dion's behavior, this man can always make a laugh with his joke.
"It's not good to be together at night."
Sarah moved her index finger at Dion like a teacher warning her student.
"And again, I'm still someone's wife, if published, in people think I'm cheating with brondong" said Sarah.
Dion laughed at Sarah's play that he thought was funny.
" But if you think about it, we are indeed a cheating couple. But, a legal cheating partner" Dion chimed in and laughed.
"Hush!" Sarah shut Dion's mouth with her hands, worried that Dion's laughter had caused a commotion in the hallway of the apartment.
Suddenly the two of them fell silent and looked at each other. Sarah momentarily became misbehaved with Dion's shahdu gaze.
Dion slowly lowered Sarah's hand from her mouth and pulled the girl's waist tight into her body.
Then with a movement that can no longer be controlled by Sarah, Dion's lips have been stuck to his lips.
Their breaths exchanged warmly.
Somehow Raka's face suddenly danced on Sarah's head.
Soon Sarah realized, quickly pushed Dion's body away.
" It looks like you should go home soon, Yon!"
With a tremble Sarah pressed the cardlock in her hand onto the doorknob.
Then without looking at Dion who was still gawking where he stood, Sarah closed the door of her apartment with a sigh.
For nearly five minutes Sarah calmed her chest, before walking to the window.
Sarah flicked through the window curtains of her apartment, a porsche Dion car just came out of the apartment yard area.
Sarah threw her body on her soft bed, her head floating on the scene just now.
She had just accepted Dion as her lover, a strange feeling running through her heart, not understanding whether her decision was right or wrong.
But the emptiness of his heart had forced him to wake up from those dreams.
Why expect someone you know will never see you, if there is someone standing straight in front of you?
Why torment the heart by wallowing in the pain of one-handed clapping, if anyone is willing to extend a hand to you to wipe away every drop of your tears?
Why keep the feelings in people who never save the slightest longing for you?
Sarah upheld her own decision, to convince her that it was not wrong to accept Dion in her life.
For Sarah now, love is open again about indulging taste but about patience to convince yourself to accept each other.
Love does not have to come from the beginning but come into being because of a process created together.
Love will exist because we are used to it.
Dion has sacrificed so much for her it never hurts her to give the man a chance.
There is nothing wrong with being loved than loving.
