My Naughty Uncle's
Sorry to Evan

Slowly Evan approached Ze who was still standing not far from him. He showed a warm smile that, according to Ze, really sucks.

What else if he remembered how Evan treated him that night. The man also smiled like that before he smashed his feelings to pieces.

"What do you want to talk to me about, Evan?" ask Ze a little cynical. He put on a lazy face when he met the man.

"Ehm, it's about my error that night. I'm sorry, Ze. I really am a khilaf! I really regret what I did" said Evan with a clear face. Evan hopes that Ze will forgive him.

"The Khilaf? Actually you know not 'the true meaning of khilaf? The Khilaf was a mistake made unintentionally. But have you forgotten? The mistake that you and your friends made to me you guys have planned very carefully!" pissed Ze.

Evan fell silent, the words spoken by Ze just now completely pierced into the depths of his heart. Evan was very sorry, very, very sorry for what he did to the girl.

Ze exhaled heavily. "Honestly, I was very disappointed and angry after knowing that I was only made into betting material by you guys. I don't think it's just me, but all the women in the world are going to be very angry when she's just made a bet, Evan! Unfortunately, I am not a vengeful person. I've even accepted my current destiny with a fair chest," Ze continued.

Evan was embarrassed. He realized what Ze said was true. "Ja-so .. are you willing to forgive all my mistakes, Ze?"

Evan ventured to raise his head back and looked at Ze fixedly with a face full of hope.

Ze remained silent for a moment until he finally answered the man's question. "Yes, I forgive you" said Ze.

Ze turned around and wanted to return to his room immediately. But again, his body was restrained. Evan grabbed Ze's hand and held him back to stay in the room with him.

"What are you doing? Release my hand! I don't want Mas Jimmy to see this and then misunderstand me" Ze said with a grouchy face.

"Why are you so worried about Jimmy? Hasn't your marriage all this time just been because of compulsion? You still love me, don't you, Ze?" Evan stared fixedly at Ze's annoyed face without letting go of his hand grip.

However, far beyond his expectations, he had to see the togetherness of his wife and nephew in the room. Jimmy tried to sharpen his hearing, trying to listen to what the two men were talking about in there.

Meanwhile, Ze laughed softly while shaking his head after listening to Evan's question to him.

"You're right, Evan. Our marriage was based on coercion. And yes, of course I'm worried about how Mas Jimmy feels because he's my husband! A man who dares to take responsibility and so appreciates me as a woman" Ze said.

Ze pulled his hand from Evan's grasp violently until it slipped off. Evan could do nothing and for the umpteenth time the man's heart was again pinched by Ze's words.

"So .. isn't there a second chance for me?" asked Evan again with a sad face.

Ze shook his head quickly and confidently. "I'm not a vengeful person and I've forgiven all your mistakes, Evan. But, to reopen my heart, I'm sorry, I can't" Ze replied.

Ze continued his steps quickly. He wants to go back to his room and see Jimmy who may have been waiting for him. As for Jimmy, he immediately left the place after seeing Ze leave Evan.

Evan, who was still curious, continued to call out Ze's name and wished the woman back again. However, Ze doesn't care that he keeps spurring his pace regardless of the call from Evan.

Now Jimmy was standing right in front of the stairs tidying up his shirt, as if he had just stepped out of their room. Ze, who had just arrived in the room, smiled at Jimmy who already looked as cool as ever.

"Where are you, Ze? I was looking for you but I didn't find you anywhere" Jimmy said, returning Ze's smile and trying to test his little wife's honesty.
