My passion exploded. His smile was like an invitation to make love. As I imagined Bella Slalu gave her best. But again I lost, lost in proving that I could be Bella.
I move, my chair backs up and hits the wall. I hugged her shoulder and kissed her cheek for a long time in the meeting room that was just the two of us.
"Do you really have to intervene like this?"
"I was just an imperfect being before I met you Abi, and you perfected me. With this, it seems like our cooperation will never end and hopefully it can be easier for us to return."
I held both of his arms.
"I'm just doing what I want to do with you and fulfilling your passions, but I'm so lucky to have you."
Bella put her lap computer into her big bag that looked like a grocery bag.
"I have to go to the clinic to meet vip guests, go to the office and find a vendor for Ollie's birthday. Don't forget the gift for our princess." Bella puffed up, kissed my jaw. "First yes, our daughter's business is waiting for news from Regina."
I drove him to the edge of the Angkasa Management parking lot and then flinkered to see my wife's car away. I smiled as I put my hands in my pants pocket. If I had given up on my flaws and not tried to find out more about who he was, I would have regretted it and one thing I understood. It wasn't Bella who got on my knees, it was me who stuck myself to her. Straining yourself to love and pleasure.

"I'm at Starbucks, come here!" I answered from Nadine's phone. He laughed crisply without turning off his phone while my phone was on the table. I took the time to have a coffee before doing the chemical explosion of a pair of humans with Nadine.
"So Ian hasn't been in the group chat dsn?"
Dsn \= Close Like Life. The title of the digital creative artwork that we will star in later. And as a sports teacher character, I had to learn the basics of sports. That's what I'm doing now—reading the book I bought at the leading bookstore—while sipping my coffee and then turning off the phone. I will answer it later after the look of that teenage boy is in front of my eyes.
"Sister.." cried Nadine from a distance while raising her right hand. His face was not much different from the sunlight outside the mall. Sunny.
I looked at him walking towards me with a smile. I also couldn't hide my face after Bella sent me a picture of herself in a doctor's white coat. Clever but a little, never mind... I can tell him if his intellect is insane.
"Sir Ian ya really, have not finished talking about already dead." nagged Nadine, pulling a chair across the table. "I ordered coffee before the road?"
"Sure." I closed the book and put it in the bag. "The other kids didn't join?"
"Oh no brother, yesterday the time at the mall agreed intense chat aja, continue more to trust each other if tomorrow can support each other and cooperation. So Ian hasn't joined yet? The other kids are on nanyain."
A waiter recorded the order Nadine had pointed out from the menu paper and left.
"I'd rather share anything directly. So Nadine, if I turned down the kiss scene yesterday, what would you like to request for the convenience of filming tomorrow?"
Nadine seemed to think about it until her nose raised flowers. Nadine shakes.
"No, according to the script that already exists. I also studied acting, I have a lot to learn. Does your sister have a girl? I want to ask permission first if there is, afraid someone will sulk. Continue later if I gerogi brother do not laugh yes. Brother help me."
As expected. From yesterday it can also be like this, sweet, submissive, shy, and ask to be understood except for co-stars in horror films. All badas. There's not a single romantic scene that makes my heart or Bella's heart look like a disco.
"Having a girl or not is my risk so relax." I nodded, then gulped down my coffee, along with Nadine's cold capuccino.
"Do you want to relax and talk?" bargain me, I do not want my relaxed existence in the coffee shop with a girl who is not yet famous in the entertainment world to be a gossip. That's why I sktrip from my desk to see people who see me either pretend or intentionally.
"By brother, can. Wash your eyes."
Nadine walked beside me with a straw coming into her mouth.
Actually, the mall walk was also part of my efforts to find a birthday present for Ollie. My eyes search in any direction. I was confused as to what to give him because everything was already at home.
"So Ian's looking for something?" Nadine intercepted my steps while stretching out her arms. He squinted his eyes.
I laughed, it was hard to be constantly acting I wasn't confused and I swore to myself not to act recklessly. But I was really dizzy with the gift I had to prepare.
"okay." I shrugged my shoulders. "I'm looking for a birthday present for a child. Woman, five years old, sweet, her eyes are beautiful, and she has ideals like her mother. Beauty doctor! You got any ideas?"
Well, one of the effects of sharing confusion is Nadine was confused. He tapped his chin and looked all over the mall thinking.
"Aah!" Nadine snapped her fingers. "Five-year-old children usually do not care what kind of gift you want. The important thing is to bring gifts and be present. How does it make sense, not my opinion?"
Oh my God, that makes a solution as if Nadine has not had the burden of life. I patted my head, the contents must be Bella–confusion–Bella–work schedule and back to Bella again.
I looked at Nadine full of jokes while giving a glimmer of a relieved smile. "Thank you. That's very helpful."
Nadine nodded sympathetically. "Don't Ian want to be helped by nyari too? I know a pretty and funny accessories seller. All at once to the clothing store, we look for matching colors. Let's get closer too, brother!" said enthusiastically.
I nodded in agreement, this is much better than I have to find myself a gift for Ollie. It could not be as predicted as most fathers who do not know taste, trend, let alone size can mess up everything I thought with his own efforts until two hours later after surrounding the mall, my hands are full of the grocery bag straps.
Nadine smiled happily. "That's so cool, I hope Ollie likes the gift of our choice!"
I nodded strongly. Hopefully, Bella doesn't suspect I got all this from whose help.
