"What?" asked Giani as if he wanted to convince his hearing again.
"We don't part, Gi." Jero repeated his words.
Giani turned his face away. Why did Jero suddenly not want to part? Didn't they agree to have this marriage for just one year? Why not want to separate?
"Aren't you the man who holds the promise?" Ask Giani. "We have agreed that this marriage will last only one year. Then why don't you want to split up now?"
"I.....!"
Door opens. Beryl went in and stopped the sentence that was going to come out of Jero's mouth.
"Sorry interfering. Outside there are customers who want to cooperate in the provision of coffee. And that's your job, Gi." Beryl.
Giani nods. "I'll go outside first!" Giani stood up and left Jero. Beryl followed Giani's steps.
Jero ruffled his hair rough. He himself could not understand why the words came out of his mouth. What makes him not want to part with Giani? Is he tied to the girl's charm?
Nah! It's not about feelings. I can't possibly fall in love with a girl who's not my type at all. Giani couldn't have loved me either. It'swrong. I shouldn't have talked like that.
Jero took a deep breath. He tried to calm his own heart.
*********
"I love Jero, ma. Jero loves me too. We don't want to be apart anymore."
Plaque!
One hard slap landed on Finly's smooth cheek.
"You realize what you're saying? Jero is married to Giani. While you're married to Aldo. What is less than Aldo?" sinta shouted with a deep sense of anger.
"I knew Aldo was the perfect guy. But I don't love him, ma. I love Jero!" Finley started crying.
"You really have no shame, Finly! Jero is your brother. You were raised together since childhood." Denny said while holding his wife's hand. He wanted his wife to be calm.
"We're not siblings. Jero is kept only by papa and mama. Jero carries Dawson's name anyway."
Sinta looked at her daughter while shaking her head. "And Alexa? Will you let your child be raised by someone else. Don't let you regret Finly! When you wanted Alexa so much, your son loved another woman as his mother."
Finly quiet. He just wants to be with Jeronimo.
"Jero has promised my mom and dad that he will never be in a relationship with you again. You're just gonna ruin your own life. Go home to your husband and be happy with him." Denny said firmly.
"Sorry, pa. I just want to be with Jero. I love her, pa. I made a terrible mistake when I married Aldo. Jero and I should have fought together for our love. Let me be with Jero, pa. If you ask, Jero will divorce Giani." Please Finly while continuing to cry.
He was very desperate. Jero had already blocked his number and already did not want to see him directly. He was really disappointed because what he wanted was blocked by everyone.
"Take your wits, Finly. This is the advice of my father and my last mother. If you still want to be with Jero, we'll throw you away as our son!" Sinta stands. "Come, pa. Let's just leave this place. Mama never educated Finly to be this immoral woman."
Denny followed his wife's steps. They left Finly still crying.
Sorry papa, sorry mama. I really love Jero. I would do anything to get Jero back to me.

After returning from the cafe, Jero and Giani kept quiet in the car. Jero drives Giani's car, while his car is abandoned at the company.
When he arrived home, Giani chose to take a shower immediately. He even took a long bath in the bathtub. He was grateful that Jero did not interfere with his bathing. For almost an hour, Giani spent in the bathroom. When he came out of the room, Jero wasn't there.
When Giani was done wearing a house shirt, Jero came in. It looks like he's taking a shower in the other bathroom.
"Darling, you're done showering?" Tanya Giani tried to neutralize the rather stiff atmosphere between them.
"Yes. I'm showering in the basement." Jero stepped inside the walk in closet to change clothes. He was already wearing his jeans and black jacket.
"Where are you going?" Ask Giani.
"You go to Frangky's nightclub."
"Oh....!" Giani just nodded and it made Jero upset. He wanted Giani to ban him.
"Regarding your request, what does it mean?"
Jero's hand, which was holding the doorknob, was released again. He looked back and looked at Giani.
"Which request?" Jero pretended to be confused at the thing he knew what Giani's question meant.
"Let's not split up."
"Oh...who is it? I was just thinking about my mom's health. The separation of Aldo and Finly will definitely make your health disturbed. Especially if coupled with our two farewells?"
"Mom and Dad will understand. They know what it is I'm going to marry you. I came to see Papa Denny myself to ask him to match us both."
Jero tried to suppress the pain in his heart hearing Giani's confession. He tried to smile. He was so proud to admit his true heart.
"Oh.so. I don't actually want to live up to our agreement. I was just thinking about my mom's health. If indeed papa and mama already know how this marriage happened, then our separation will certainly not interfere with the health of mama."
"So?"
Jero looked at Giani. "As I said when we had dinner in the garden, we would carve sweet memories in the rest of our days together."
"OK."
"I'm going first, right?"
"Darling, don't drink too much huh? Not good for health."
Jero's approaching. He hugged Giani very tightly. Then kiss Giani's forehead very gently. "If Finly was at the club, I wouldn't let him near me."
"I believe baby!" Giani grabbed the nape of Jero so that the man he slightly lowered. The two kissed lips for a while.
"I'm tired today. So can't wait for you to come home."
"OK." Jero left the room. He felt his heart was too heavy to leave Giani. But he wanted to take all his thoughts off Giani. He needs a lot of alcohol tonight.
**********
The days passed very quickly. The divorce trial between Aldo and Finly is over. Aldo has also spoken to his father and mother-in-law. Papa Denny and Mama Sinta apologize to Aldo for Finly's attitude. But Aldo who has been steady with his decision, felt no need to bother about it anymore.
"Mom and Dad, just calm down. I will still consider my mom and dad my own parents. Alexa loves her opa and her oma."
Geraldo's words made the couple unable to hold back their tears.
They are grateful to have a daughter-in-law like Geraldo who is so kind and understanding.
Giani and Jero also live their days with great affection. Every weekend, they spend time together to go to various places. Not infrequently, they just stop by the nearby hotels to spend time together. Like they were newlyweds.
Alexa is getting closer to Joana. He had even stayed at Joana's apartment because he wanted to enjoy time with his aunt. Sometimes Giani also takes his time to be with Alexa. He wanted to comfort his brother. But what he saw was Alexa as if not bothered by the departure of Finly.

Jero returned home today with a chocolate bar delivered by his aunt from London. He knew that Giani really liked chocolate. I am sure Giani will like it.
As he enters the house, he looks for Giani in the kitchen for the smell of cooking. But Giani is not in the kitchen. He saw that there was cooking on the table. It even looks like there will be a celebration.
Jero immediately headed to the upper room. As she opened the door, she saw Giani just standing from the front of her dresser. Jero was surprised to see Giani who was so neat.
"Honey, where are you going? Any events? Or are there guests coming?" Ask Jero while approaching.
"Forgotted huh? What day is it?"
"What day?" Jero wrapped his hands around Giani's waist.
"Happy weding anniversary, honey!"
Jero's hand grip on Giani's waist came loose. His knees were weak as well. His heart seems to stop. So sweet they went through the day together until he forgot that today was 1 year of their marriage. Contract terminated.
