Only Love

Only Love
#28


2 Weeks later, at the Dharmawangsa family residence, Daniel, Vinnie, Dad Donald and Mom Hilda were sitting together in the living room.


“Nil, your birthday event next week you want Mommy to celebrate at Hotel XZ. You invite your friends yes, let more crowded. Dad and Mom will invite business colleagues and friends so you can also get to know them more closely,” Mom Hilda said.


“Iya Nile, right. You are now starting to help Dad in the company, so you must be familiar with other entrepreneurs,” said Dad Donald.


“But Dad, actually Daniel wants to go back to practice only. Dad can find someone who is an expert and can be trusted to help Dad in the company,” explained Daniel.


Vinnie, who was sitting among the Lewis family, could only quietly listen to the conversation between Daniel and his parents.


“Already! You should no longer need to discuss your medical science. Didn't from the first Dad did not give you permission to study medicine,” said Dad Donald with a little hard.


Daniel got up from his seat and went to his bedroom. He grabbed the car keys and immediately left Vinnie and his parents in the living room, who stared at his disappearance for granted.


“That kid, hahhh ..” Dad Donald sighed harshly.


“Vin, you should get pregnant soon, have children. Let Daniel be able to understand our feelings as parents,” Mom Hilda said.


I'm sorry Mom, I can't grant your request. I already have an agreement with him that we will soon be separated after all this is done. - Inner Vinnie.

Daniel drives his car until now he has arrived in front of the apartment building occupied by Ivy. In secret, Daniel has checked the schedule of Ivy practice at RB Hospital. Therefore, he was very confident that Ivy would have returned to the apartment by now. Ivy is not the type of woman who likes to wander. She would prefer to be at home cooking, watching TV, or reading a book.


Daniel pressed the screen of his phone and waited for the sound of the connection on his call. When his call was raised, he spoke immediately.


“Vy, I'm downstairs. I want to meet and talk to you.”


Daniel's still in the car, waiting for Ivy. As he sees Ivy coming out of the apartment, he immediately honks slowly, only for Ivy to know his position.


“Kak, what's up here?” ask Ivy.


“Alright first, I need you,” Daniel said as if to imply how much they actually still love each other, but unfortunately fate has not been on their side.


Daniel drove his vehicle and drove his car to a cafe located not too far from the apartment.


“Teh warm.”


“Black coffee,” Daniel's pinta on a waiter, without looking at the menu book at all.


Ivy was a little surprised because Daniel did not usually drink black coffee.


“Kak, you why?” ask Ivy.


“Vy, we're running from here together. I will divorce Vinnie,” Daniel said in a hurry.


Ivy who heard it of course felt shocked. Although he loved Daniel, it never occurred to him to run away with Daniel. Besides Daniel being someone's husband, Ivy couldn't sacrifice Dad Arthur for Daniel.


“Kak, relax! Brother Daniel actually why?” Ivy asked because she saw Daniel's face that was not calm.


“Vy, I've been trying for 2 months now, but I can't. I can't live without you.”


Ivy took a deep breath and threw it away slowly. He also felt the same way as Daniel, but he did not want to be selfish and did the action as Daniel wanted.


“Kak, listen to me. So that you know, actually I would not be willing if Brother Daniel married another woman. However, since it was Vinnie, I learned to be sincere, because I knew she was a good woman.”


“What do you mean? Did he ask you to say all this? Tell me Vy, did he force you?” daniel asked in a tone that began to rise.


“Never once did Vinnie ask me to say all this. I met him and I still communicate with him. He knows we even know we love each other. Therefore he once said that he would not linger with this marriage. He promised to talk to his parents to keep working with Lewis' company. It will go far, even as far as possible until you will not see it again.”


Daniel was silent for a moment. During the 2 months of her marriage, Vinnie never complained. In fact he never considered Vinnie as his wife, even though Vinnie always served his daily needs.


“You know Brother, he did all this just to help your family. Perhaps here, he was the one who was hurt the most. He left someone he loved so much and loved for this match, for your family. He was forced to let go of the man because his parents threatened him, plus you like this. Does brother know how big the sacrifice is?”


“We should be able to let go of each other, Brother. Even though we know it's not easy. I need time myself too. Remember, brother, I will never enter as the third person in anyone's marriage. Still have feelings for Brother at this time has made me feel like a bad person,” said Ivy, trying to wake Daniel from all his desires are not right.


“T-but Vy ...,” said Daniel was truncated because Ivy again said.


“Kak, stop. Don't make this any harder for both of us. Come home, Vinnie must be waiting for you. Does brother want a divorce and let him go back to his lover? All the decisions are in the hands of my brother and I don't want to be involved in them,” Ivy said.


Daniel begins to imagine he is divorced with Vinnie and Vinnie returns to his lover. Why he felt a little unwilling. Is he selfish? But he also does not want if the woman who is now sitting in front of him to belong to someone else.


Ahhh how greedy I am!- inner Daniel while squeezing his hair.

At Lewis's residence, Vinnie, who was currently in the bedroom where he and Daniel slept, could only stand behind the window in the direction of the balcony. He looked at the night sky that was not starry at all then smiled faintly.


“Even stars don't want to see me,” muttered Vinnie.


He turned around and sat down on the bed. He opened the nightstand and took out a piece of paper that was there. Unbeknownst to Dad Davis, he had paid a lawyer to prepare a divorce letter for her. Once Lewis's company stabilizes and Daisy's health improves, he will give the letter to Daniel and leave from there.


I'll set you free soon.Inner Vinnie.
