Andreas put Kenzie in bed. His son fell asleep on his way back to the hotel after playing on the playground. Not to mention since morning they were already at the beach. Of course the power of the 2-year-old boy was drained and finally exhausted to sleep soundly.
Meanwhile, Nisa entered the walk in closet with some groceries. All the goods were bought by Andreas because of his jokes that were taken seriously by the man. Despite his refusal, Andreas insisted on buying him some bags and shoes.
"Just there's no more space to put these things." Nisa muttered while staring at her overloaded large suitcase. Even the souvenirs he bought alone were forced to be inside a large paperbag.
He was already convinced that his suitcase would not fit for stuff anymore, but Andreas still forced him to choose some bags and shoes.
“Don't worry, I've ordered a suitcase. It'll be delivered here tonight." The sudden appearance of Andreas, made Nisa slightly jerked. In his eyes Andreas who was getting closer to him. The man carved a smile, stopping right before Nisa.
"I told you the suitcase was full, but you didn't believe it."
"So much luggage if you add a suitcase." The beautiful woman complained a little. If you finally have to add 1 more suitcase will definitely bother carrying it. Although Andreas is also the one who will certainly bring their suitcases.
Instead of defending himself, Andreas actually smelled a smile hearing Nisa protest. Nisa is now different from Nisa 3 years ago.
In the past he very rarely heard the beautiful woman talk at length what else protested to him.
You could say Nisa is very obedient and does not comment much. But now,? Everything she does will be commented on by Nisa.
"Why did you become a crewet.?" Andreas asked with a smile and an anxious looking look at Nisa.
"What is it because you have children.?" Said guess. It is no secret that women who already have children do talk more and seem chatty.
"Who's the crewet.? I'm just talking about reality." Nisa denies.
"Yes fine," Andreas chose not to extend the conversation. Besides being afraid of making Nisa's mood bad, there were more important things for her to talk to Nisa about.
"Can I talk to you for a second.? I have something to tell you." Andreas Pinta. Andreas's face that turned serious made Nisa become curious about what Andreas would tell her.
Unwilling to be curious, Nisa nodded in agreement. He will also use this opportunity to say important things and Andreas is also good at regarding the continuation of their household in the future.
...*****...
Sitting on the balcony of the room with a beautiful view of the blue sea, both of them seemed to enjoy a soothing afternoon breeze. For a moment they were silent with a straight forward look. There are many things in the clutter that they want to say, but both are equally confused about where to start.
"What are you talking about.?" Nisa ended the silence.
He glanced at Andreas, but cast a glance in the other direction as Andreas was about to stare at him.
"May you not get tired of hearing it." Said Andreas who felt anxious because before starting the conversation, he would say something he had said repeatedly to Nisa.
"I'm really grateful to you." Unable to withstand the whipping, Andreas' voice was choked because it had been carried away by feeling before starting a further conversation.
She ventured to grab Nisa's hand and hold it. The hand that was able to pull him up in a slump. It was the hand that had made him rise from after falling from the bottom of the abyss of destruction.
Thanks to Nisa, thanks to the kindness and sincerity of the woman who was willing to return to him, slowly able to give more spirit to survive.
"Thank you for being willing to give me a chance to get together with you."
"Do you know.? To be honest I was so tormented after taking revenge for my heartache on them." Clear circles began to wet Andreas' handsome face. The man looked very fragile at this moment. The look in his eyes depicted destruction and regret.
"It was too great of my feelings of resentment towards them until finally the grudge covered my eyes and heart."
"I deny the feeling in my heart. Denying that I didn't love you back then."
"I thought my revenge would be avenged and make them suffer after I left you, but in the end I suffered myself."
"Day changed, I thought the feeling would be eroded by time and distance. But in reality that love keeps growing and makes me unable to forget you after 3 years have passed."
Andreas' hand grip was getting stronger. His eyes also deepened.
"If you're asking me why I never came back and granted your request when I met at the airport, the answer is because I'm afraid I'm gonna hurt you again."
"I also realize I'm not the same as I used to be." Andreas's face was down. Right now that he had already lost half his sanity, he could not imagine having returned to Nisa in such a miserable state.
"But you have to believe that this love never fades, you occupy the most beautiful place in my heart from long ago to the present."
"From now on I promise I won't hurt or leave you again."
"For the sake of you and Kenzie, I will fight to heal in order to become a protector to you." His words were full of confidence and passion.
To be honest a lot has changed since meeting Nisa and being able to get together with Kenzie.
He no longer vented his anger by doing things that put his own life at risk.
Though excessive guilt and fear still prevail over it.
Nisa, who had been listening to every word that came out of Andreas' lips, now began to take a deep breath because she felt tightness in her chest.
No matter how much pain and disappointment she felt, Nisa was still Nisa. He was destined to be born with a great soul and a sincere heart.
He had even forgiven all of Andreas' mistakes, though still afraid of reopening his heart for Andreas.
"I'll hold your word."
"Don't let me down again, because if that happens then there'll never be a second word back." Nisa's full of assertiveness.
He does not want to be stupid behind the words survive for the sake of the child if it has been hurt repeatedly.
Andreas nodded in understanding.
"That's never gonna happen, I promise."
Andreas now looks more relieved after revealing the contents of his heart that he had been quiet for years. Her feelings were much better after telling Nisa everything.
"Then how did you decide.?" Ask Nisa.
"Are you going to keep running the company in America.?"
After deciding to get back together, isa so think about how their lives will be. Andreas' company is in America and that requires Andreas to live there. Nisa decides to accept Andreas back in order to stay together to care for Kenzie together with their love and affection for him.
"I've been thinking about building a similar company in Batam. If it can't, it'll likely be in Jakarta." Answer Andreas.
Nisa seemed to disagree hearing that.
"Is there no other city besides Jakarta.?"
"I don't want to set foot there too often." Nisa's face turned sad.
Hearing the word Jakarta made his chest tight. His greatest suffering began in that city.
Had there not been Mella there, maybe Nisa had erased the city of Jakarta from her memory.
