THE DESTRUCTION OF LOYALTY
THE SINCERITY OF AYU
Erick who saw Ayu running with a knife immediately shouted to Devita.
" Sli!!!!!" Erick pulls Devita's body back and pushes Ayu with all his might.
Brugh... Pleks...
Ayu fell to the floor, the knife she was holding was thrown far away. Devita looked at what was going on. He did not expect that Ayu would act as she is today. Isn't Ayu okay? Then why is Ayu trying to attack him now? Thought Devita.
" You're crazy Ayu!!!" Jerky Erick.
" He's crazy." Ayu pointed at Devita while standing up.
" He told you love, he said he couldn't live without you and he shamelessly asked me to let you go Erick." Ayu's shout made Devita dumbfounded. How could Ayu slander him like that?
Erick looked back at the glance, Devita shaking her head.
" I won't let him take you away from me. I've loved you all this time, I'm Erick. I'm gonna kill him." Ayu came forward to attract Devita but Erick quickly held Ayu back. He blocked both of Ayu's arms and looked at her sharply.
" Take Erick!!! I'm gonna kill him. He's an actor, he wants to take you away from me." Say Ayu while shouting.
" Dare you touch it, then you'll die. I'll kill you if you dare to hurt her Ayu." Erick said with great emphasis. He pushed Ayu until her body staggered backwards.
" Why? Why are you defending him? Do you love him too?"
This should be a good opportunity for Erick to express his feelings, but he was silent. It felt like his tongue was too faint to tell the truth.
Devita, who was waiting for Erick's answer, closed her eyes. He knew this was what was going to happen. Erick doesn't love her that's why he can't answer Ayu's questions. Devita turned her back, she stepped away from the couple.
" Say Erick!" Ayu pulls Erick's neck collar.
" Tell me, do you love her?" Ayu looked at Erick's eyes.
" Yes." Erick said in a high tone involuntarily.
" I love her and I'll marry her."
Jedeurr....
Devita who was so surprised to hear Erick's words immediately stopped her steps. He turned back to look at Ayu and Erick. Ayu smiled as she raised her chin as if proud to have managed to prove the truth of Erick's feelings for her.
" I'll divorce you and I'll marry Devita as soon as possible." I'm afraid, maybe it's time for Erick to tell the truth. Erick approached Devita and clasped her hand.
" I love her, I love Devita just as much as I loved Jia before." Erick.
Ayu closed her eyes holding the pain in her heart while Devita was still dumbfounded.
" Heh." Ayu smiled sinisterly looking at the two.
" Just do it! I'm ready to part from you. There's no point in me being next to you, and what you want isn't me." Ayu pilu.
" Thank God if you're self-conscious, this will make my life easier." Erick said without feeling.
Devita took off Erick's hand. Erick looked at her pretty face, and vice versa.
" No Brother."
" Why Devi?" Erick cupped Devita's cheek.
" I love you. Your tenderness, your motherly nature, and your care make my heart turn to you. I know maybe you think I don't know myself so boldly I express this feeling to you. But this is how I feel, I love you Devita." Erick.
Devita should be happy because her love has been reciprocated. But seeing Ayu's sincerity, that feeling of pleasure turned into guilt. He looked at Ayu with a sad look, clearly visible pain that was very deep from Ayu's eyes. It was very painful to see the husband he loved had expressed love to the other woman in front of him.
" aa.. What about Ayu's mom?" The question escaped Devita's lips.
Ayu smilingly looked at Devita, at least Devita still cared about her feelings.
" Erick never loved me, our marriage and Mikayla were a mistake. Erick married me out of a sense of responsibility to Mikayla. But what does marriage mean if one of us doesn't want it? Even if we stay together, we won't be happy." Ayu.
" I'm willing to take Erick off for you Devita, you're the woman Erick wants you to be. Love Erick just as much as I love him. I-i'm sorry! I had to do something like that to get Erick to tell you the truth. I congratulate you, Devita, you are a lucky woman to have Erick's rock-hard heart. I'm sorry." Ayu passed by leaving the two lovebirds in love. Although his heart crumpled dimly, but he was happy to see Erick happy. His life and Mikayla's problems will be discussed later with Erick. The important thing now is Erick has to solve his problem with Devita.
Silent...
" I'm."
" I'm." Say both at the same time.
" You first." Devita.
" You go first, I'll listen to it." Erick.
Devita took a deep breath as if gathering strength to bring out what she was thinking.
" Do you really love me?" Ask Devita to the point.
" Yes, I love you." Sahut Erick's.
" I'm silent because I feel inferior, I feel unworthy of a woman as good as you because I'm just a heartless jerk." Connect Erick.
" You're right, brother, you have no heart. In front of your wife alone you dare declare love to another woman." Sindir Devita smiled cynically.
" Ayu is my wife, but I never loved her. And I never thought of Ayu as my wife but the mother of my child. Devi's heart and feelings can't be forced, even though we live together but this heart doesn't want them." Erick.
" Will you do the same to me one day after you don't love me anymore?"
Degs...
Erick was stunned by the question Devita was asking, he knew clearly what Devita was saying. Devita is afraid that she will be hurt like Ayu is today.
Devita looked at him carefully as if she was judging the answer from Erick's face at the moment.
" You should know Devi, once I fall in love I'll never think of another woman. Moreover, loving another woman, I am a loyal type of man. Once in love then forever in love, especially if we can be together." Erick said firmly.
" Are you not feeling at all for Ayu's mother?" Devita asked again.
" no... " Sahut Erick's.
" It's not just one or two years we've been together, but we've been through days together for years. But in reality, I'm not interested in him at all. I only made her an outlet because I failed to get the love of the woman I loved before you. That's why I feel like I'm a jerk and I don't deserve you." Bright Erick.
Devita knew it wasn't Ayu Erick loved but another woman because Ayu had told her everything before. As for who the woman was, Devita did not know and did not want to know because for her it was only the past.
" You're right, brother, you don't deserve me." Devita's words surprised Erick.
" What do you mean Devi?" Search Erick.
" You know I love you, and I know you love me too. That's enough for me." Devita said out of place. His heart suddenly became muddled between wanting to start and end.
" Are you not willing to accept my love? Don't you want to live with me?" Erick looked at Devita.
Devita was just silent, she turned her gaze to the sky of the room.
" We love Devi, you and I will be us in a bond that is the bond of marriage." Erick.
" Marry me and we'll live happily." Pinta Erick's.
" I can't just trust you, sister, I don't want to just be your stop until someday after we're together you say you want to go back to mbak Ayu on Mikayla's grounds. Make sure you feel before you make a decision. Don't you regret the decision you've made." Devita's away from leaving Erick.
Devita's reaction was right beyond Erick's expectations, in the shadow of Erick Devita being happy and taking it for granted without any drama like this. Right beyond expectations.
" I will prove my love for you Devi."
Devita looked back, she threw a smile at Erick then continued her steps out of the door of Erick's house. Ayu who was silent peeked at them again shed her tears.
Although he had been in a coma before, he knew what was going on in Erick's life. In his subconscious he could clearly hear the expression Devita's love for Erick. Eventually, she realizes that Devita is leaving to save her marriage.
But no matter how much effort Devita in the end Ayu and Erick relationship will still end. Ayu is a poor woman who once hoped to be made queen by an Erick, but in reality she was only made a doll.
