Second Love to Ardian
Second love for Ardian

Second love for Ardian.

Jerry stood up from his seat, stepped closer to Nalda who was still standing while staring at her."Am I wrong to worry about you, Nal? Am I wrong?" Ask Jerry.

"You're not wrong, Jerry. Because I know that you must have married me. It's just that I can't keep up with your request, Jer. Ardian is my patient, after all. He needs me to help him heal." Obviously Nalda looked at Jerry with a serious look."I beg Jerry, don't associate your feelings with my work. Because our feelings have nothing to do. We both live this. I've said it too, don't wait for me, because I don't know I'll give you an answer later."

Nalda didn't mean to turn on Jerry. But seeing the man was too restrictive when he met Ardian who was clearly just his patient, made Nalda feel uncomfortable. Because he doesn't want his job to be messed up just because of their feelings. Moreover, Nalda could feel that Jerry was jealous when he met Ardian.

"But Nal, I'm worried about you. Moreover, that man was a jerk. It could have been if he was going to hurt you, Nal. I don't want to lose you."

Honestly Jerry felt very unsettled when his best friend was close to Ardian. Jerry was afraid that Ardian would take advantage of Nalda's kindness like the woman Ardian had been trapping all along. Jerry was afraid, Nalda would be just like any other woman, let alone Jerry knew how much of a jerk that man could trap women so easily.

"I know Jer. Ardian is a jerk, but I can't leave him for now. Because he needs treatment, considering his mentality is very damaged. I approached him because I wanted to help him, especially Ardian did not want to go to a psychologist for therapy. That's how I'm gonna help her." Clearly Nalda looked at Jerry who was now silent while staring at him."I beg Jer, let me help him. I promise I'll take care of myself and won't be consumed by her seduction like any other woman."

Jerry rubbed his face violently upon hearing Nalda's request. But, honestly, he did not want to see his best friend why-why. Especially the woman he loved until she was hurt.

"As far as you are Nal. I'll keep supporting you." Jerry tried to smile."But on one condition. If you're not gonna like Ardian."

Nalda frowned in confusion upon hearing Ardian's words."Why, if I like Ardian?"

"Because you can only be with me, not with him." Jerry replied seriously.

"You expect too much Jerry. You don't know what my answer will be."

"Whatever your answer is, I'll keep waiting." Jerry smiled meaningfully."All right, because you're home. I'm going to the office, too."

"Are you angry, Jer?" Tanya Nalda felt guilty for thinking that her best friend was angry with her. Because Nalda is very familiar with the nature of Jerry if he comes to his house, then the man will take the time to have breakfast for a while. But it's different this morning.

"I'm not angry, Nal. It's just that today I'm having a meeting, so I have to go." Obviously Jerry."But honestly, I'm actually disappointed in Nal. Because you'd rather be that guy than follow my request not to go near that jerk." Jerry's inner self tried to cover up his disappointment. Although honestly for a moment he was very disappointed today.

"I'm here to give you those fruits. Coincidentally last night, I bought him too much." Nalda followed Jerry's eyes glancing at the paper bag on the table.

"Thank you, Jerry. But you're not angry, are you?" Although Jerry did not show his disappointment, but Nalda could see that his best friend was actually disappointed in him.

"How many times have I said Nal. If I'm not angry. So don't ask that again." Obviously Jerry."Instead of thinking about this, you should rest. Not that your legs haven't healed yet. I'm going to go too."

"alright. You're careful on Jerry's streets. I'm sorry about what I said."

Jidan stepped inside the guest room that Ardian now occupied. Because the man's room is being cleaned and repaired. Maybe later tonight Ardian can go back to his room again.

"Good morning sir." Say hello to Jidan while smiling. Jidan could see that his master was leaning against the bed with his head turned towards the window.

Ardian, who heard Jidan's greeting, turned to look at the side and Ardian could see that Jidan was stepping towards him while carrying a tray filled with food.

"What's the condition, sir, is it better?" Tanya Jidan kept the tray on the nightstand.

"It's better, Jidan. But I still feel dizzy, probably because of the effect of last night's drink."

"Instead the alcohol content that you drank last night is very high, that's why you feel dizzy, because the effects of alcohol has not completely disappeared." Obviously Jidan took the ginger water that he had brought, then gave it to Ardian.

"What did I do last night, Jidan, so Nalda has to come here?"

"Your rampaging night sir, I told Madame Nalda to calm you down. Because last night I couldn't make it fast because I was stuck in traffic."

"But why Nalda, Jidan? Why don't you call someone else. You know, if I could've hurt Nalda last night unknowingly. Especially when I'm not normal." Ardian didn't mean to turn on Jidan. It's just that Ardian felt afraid, that he would hurt Nalda unconsciously. Especially when his emotions were not okay. Maybe Nalda will be the victim of his violence after last night.

"Because there is no other way, sir, other than Lady Nalda. But you calm down. Because last night you didn't hurt Madame Nalda. Said the bodyguards here, you are much calmer when invited to chat by Mrs Nalda." Jidan. Although I knew what Nalda was like to calm her master. But Jidan is very salute. Because Nalda can calm Ardian without having to inject tranquilizers as usual when Ardian was raging like last night.

"Even when madam Nalda treats you. You did not set her to go home, even though the circumstances at that time the master was not aware. But you still hold the hand of Madame Nalda, until at last Nalda's maam soy sauce, to sleep next to you."

Hearing Jidan's explanation, Ardian fell silent. He didn't know what to say after."Jidanese. What is this feeling, being able to control myself even though I'm not in an unconscious state?"

"It could be so, sir. You respond to the presence of Miss Nalda, even if you are unconscious. It means you already like him sir."

"It's really like that." Ardian asked who sounded so innocent in his sense of hearing, that it made the man smile funny.

"Yes, sir, you've started loving her."
