Stain From you
Chapter 22 Evening Dress

Gilda nodded her head. "But at the beginning of the incident I hated myself a lot, Ed. Because we made a fatal mistake that night ..," said Gilda who suddenly stopped when Edzhar's hand stroked her stomach again.

"Continue, Gil ... or, are you uncomfortable because I always rub your belly?"

"No, I like it. You make me want to cry" replied Gilda, who was already teary, but tried to laugh.

Gilda who returned took a deep breath, trying to calm down. His mouth opened again, and continued to tell stories. "I was angry when I woke up in your arms and it turned out that I was in your bed, I considered that I was the most sinful and stained woman ...."

Edzhar looked up and reflexively wiped away Gilda's tears. "Oh, Gil .. I'm sorry, I didn't think that you felt so guilty. Sorry ...." Edzhar brought Gilda's body back into her arms. Still letting Gilda sit on his lap, Edzhar hugged her waist and gave her peace through a swab on her back.

"What I was thinking at the time was your relationship with Carla. I was afraid that you knew that night that I was the one you touched, not Carla, and did you know ...? After we did, you mentioned Carla's name, and you were hugging me, Ed."

"Even that morning I don't remember anything. I only knew my bedsheet had a red stain, and I was sure it was blood."

Gilda's body suddenly stiffened. Discussing it embarrassed him, and Gilda cleared her throat to neutralize her pounding chest. "Could Mateo's grandfather have known that we did that night, even without seeing the CCTV at home? Did you know from the waiter who cleaned your sheets, Ed?"

"I don't know. I also don't know who cleaned my room after that." Gilda bit her lip. "Have it, now it's our job to just keep him together until he's born."

"Then, after our son was born .. am I still able to take care of him? I don't want to part with him, Ed." Gilda stared at the orange sky with teary eyes. "What if we're really divorced? Will I not be able to carry my own child?"

Edzhar who originally wanted to kiss Gilda's stomach again, suddenly fell silent. He hasn't thought that far. He was aware of the contents of the agreement, but what about Gilda's fate in the future?

Gilda's question also troubled her heart. Can she keep her child away from her own mother? Will he do that for Carla? Now his brain and heart were completely turbulent. Looking at Gilda's tears, the door of her heart was knocked.

Gilda is the best friend she has. All this time he was friends with Gilda without any problems. Even he was lucky because he had a friend who was very understanding and was always beside him.

Come to think of it, Gilda was always there for him. The woman who always accompanied him at a time when Carla was busy with the world of shooting. Even Gilda did not stop giving positive thoughts if Carla was more concerned with her sexual appearance than her input to dress more modestly for the good of the lover.

Edzhar's mind was completely disturbed right now. Love for Carla always kept her well, but Gilda's feelings are also obligatory. Deep down, she loved Gilda.

"You don't have to think that far. You can definitely meet our son after giving birth to him, I swear, Gil."

Hearing Edzhar's reply, Gilda smiled wryly. It was very clear that Edzhar had not loved him, but a lot of time he passed with the man, especially in the room. If this is the way, Gilda can give up fighting for her love.

Especially Edzhar's treatment all this time just to calm him down. Can he hope for more? Expecting the love of his best friend is very, very difficult to achieve.

Gilda who was secretly thinking about the continuation of her feelings, was suddenly taken aback by Edzhar's wet hand. "Now we're even" said the man after making Gilda's face wet with sea water.

Gilda chuckled and did the same. Letting the seawater wet his palm, Gilda also rubbed Edzhar's face. The two laughed together until the originally reddish-orange sky at the end of it, turned into a blackish red slowly.

Gilda smiled, for now maybe she was indeed required to be a stronger woman than before. It had to be done for the sake of his son with Edzhar. He wants his baby to be born safe and sound.

On Edzhar's lap, Gilda dared her hand to circle around the man's neck. Gilda also stroked Edzhar's cheek slowly. "I don't know what our destiny will be like, Ed. If we're not meant to be together, I want us to be friends like we used to be." Kissing Edzhar's forehead long enough, after which Gilda patted her husband's right cheek gently with a sincere smile.

As Gilda's gaze returned to the twilight sky, the silent Edzhar receiving her sweet treatment extended her hand to her chest. Don't know why, his heart was beating so hard. Just this time Edzhar felt a strange thing that he rarely felt.

Ignoring his chest that suddenly thumped from receiving a sincere smile and the gentle gaze of his best friend earlier, Edzhar tried to focus on Gilda's stomach. He believes that maybe it could happen because they decided to work together to look after their baby. Until the ship that sailed in the middle of the sea, began to pull over and the sound of Gilda was able to resuscitate Edzhar.

"Where are we now?" gilda asked as their ship stopped on the edge of the white sand.

Waking up from Edzhar's lap, Gilda could see some minimalist houses made of wood lined there. Probably more than ten in number, because Gilda had not had time to count them all. While she who had not received an answer from her husband again asked, "Ed, where are we now?"

"This, Sir." The man gave Edzhar a backpack that was brought from the villa before they had lunch at the restaurant, just before they went to the hospital. "The Madam is already inside" he added as Edzhar wanted to give the money.

Edzhar said, "Return on schedule."

"Good, Sir."

After the man left, Gilda pointed at Edzhar's arm. "What are we here for, Ed? Didn't we already live in your family's inn?" ask Gilda who does not know with her agenda with Edzhar in the next few days. Gilda felt strange because suddenly they were stranded on a small island, but it looked very charming for her.

"Before we had lunch at the restaurant, Janez suggested to bring you here. He said this place was one of my family's businesses, and he suggested that your heart condition improve."

"Hem. I'm fine, Ed."

Edzhar grabbed Gilda's shoulders and began to swing her legs towards one of the wooden houses there. "I know you feel sad after seeing me kiss Carla." Right after saying that, a middle-aged woman came from another wooden house and said greetings to Edzhar and Gilda.

After that the woman gave the key to Edzhar. "One more time welcome and enjoy your time, Mr., Mr ...."

"Thank you," replied Gilda and Edzhar who were accidentally ejected simultaneously.

"So it's true that we're here for the honeymoon?" guess Gilda who was able to invite Edzhar's wide grin. "Hey! You don't scare me, Ed!"

"Maybe I have to visit her often," Edzhar replied with a look toward Gilda's stomach. The woman closed her stomach. It made Edzhar's smile grow bigger, but the man quickly shook his head. "I'm kidding. Come in, take a break and clean up before we have dinner. I'll choose a menu for us" Edzhar said, putting her backpack by the door.

The man took his lips to kiss Gilda on the forehead with his hands touching her stomach. Then Edzhar really got out of there. Leaving behind Gilda who gasped while holding her forehead.

"You're making me back and forth, Ed."

After that Gilda held her chest while walking into the backpack. He placed his knees on the floor made of wood. Then look for clothes to wear for dinner with Edzhar.

"It seems I brought the right clothes ...." Gilda's smile expanded after her hand found a pretty dress.

The blue Netra Edzhar could not stop staring at Gilda from top to bottom. Then he looked back at his wife's face. "Don't you know I hate women who can't dress modestly, Gil?" edzhar asked as she had just opened the bathroom door.

The view of Gilda's sexy body covered in a long dress to calves, but has a low cleavage and thin laced, really bothers her. Edzhar approached, and it made Gilda shake her head while extending her hand. "What do you want? Aren't you the one who said we'd have dinner tonight?"

"You're right, I did say that, Gil .." replied Edzhar who again paused when her approaching steps were held by Gilda's hand.

"You said that after we canceled the zoo. You also said that I could buy any dresses before we go to the beach, Ed. Now you want to ban me?"

"Come, Gil! I don't like to see you in that dress. Some guy here will focus on you, Gil! Replace it with another dress, or the one you wear at lunchtime!"

"What am I to you? Why are you upset that my body is glimpsed by another man? Isn't that beneficial to me, because I can get a man after we get divorced later? Right or not?"

Edzhar, who was about to step up, was suddenly startled by the ringing of a cell phone in her pants pocket. "We're not talking about divorce! Quickly change your dress! Or we won't have dinner outside!" jolt Edzhar before grabbing the doorknob and opting out of the room to pick up a phone call from Janez.

"I won't change" muttered Gilda as she followed Edzhar's footsteps out of the room. Feeling that there was someone behind him, Edzhar turned his head and the next second he glared sharply. "Our son is hungry, Ed."

"I really want to lock you up" said Edzhar after closing her phone, but she had not finished talking to Janez. "You really are, Gil!"
