The Incomplete Love

The Incomplete Love
Start From the Beginning


Qiara and Kala set foot on Indonesian earth. Qiara breathed air in the country that she had been leaving for three years.


Heart's beating.


“Buna, come on,” exclaims Kala while pulling Qiara's hand. The boy could not wait to explore the city he was going to live in.


Kala ran along the airport corridor. His behavior was funny, making many passengers laugh.


“Kalandra Akira Putra Thoriq. The road next to Buna, honey. You will be sitting down.”


“Ay, ay, Buna.” The answer is sailor-style and run zigzag to the bunanya.


“Handsome son, Mom,” greet a passenger. Kala who does not understand the Indonesian language looked at his son with a questioning view.


“This lovely lady said you’re handsome.” Qiara smiled.


Kala laughed happily and then replied with a stammer, “Te-rima kemih, Ibyu.”


“Buna, look, Uncle Dhanu and Auntie Anne. Brother Rama, wait for me!” Kala blingsatan tugged at his mountain.


“Take the baggage first, darling. Sitting in a trolley yuk. The trunk is out.” soon


Qiara painstakingly held Qala to be patient waiting for her things. After everything is sorted out, the two of them come out and are greeted by bestie's army.


“What? I can't believe it! It's a work day. Ah already. I miss you guys!” Qiara and her five best friends hugged, while Dhanu held Kala and kissed her kingpin's cheeks in dismay.


Kala slumped from Dhanu's arms and embraced Rama. The two boys immediately ran to and fro.


Qiara came to Dhanu. The brothers looked at each other and hugged each other tightly.


“Qia Kangen, Mas Dhanu.”


“Dek, don't go again, yes.”


“Qia came home, Mas..” They hugged each other to remember that Kala had not yet greeted the friends.


“Kala, have greetings with aunt all here?”


The little boy whose hair was soaked in sweat came to his mother's friends. He kissed the reverence one by one then stood beside Qiara.


Dhanu took Kala and they all headed for the parking lot. Rama pushed the trolley while joking with the little boy beside him.


Alya whispers, “Qi, the Kala ..”


“Iya, I know, crib his father, right?” Reply Qiara lirih.


“Qi, you see Thoriq every day. Aih dead bye.” Cherish could not help herself.


“According to ngana? Aing is dead back and forth, Cher. His sleeping style is the same as that of Mas Thoriq.”


“Lu plan to know Kala to Thoriq?”


“Qia ... Qia not ready, Mbak.”


“Self calm, one step at a time.”


“In shaa Allah.”

“Daddy, I want to play with Kala, when can we invite him to the mansion?”


“Hmm, maybe weekend?”


“Yay, I want to call Kala.”


“Besok aja, it's late at night. Now you have to sleep, do not toy Thor continue dong.”


Devan removes Thor's figurine and his enemies.


“Daddy likes the same Qiara, yes?”


“What? You know what you're bootying?” Devan chuckles salting.


“I saw Daddy's expression as well as Ron's every look at Hailey, his estimate.”


“Excuse me? You're seven years old, right? Why have you had a crush?” Devan tickled his son in a row. Liam was strangled to ask for mercy.


“Ampun, Daddy. Don't click again..”.


Devan kissed his son's cheek.


“But really, right? Daddy likes his mom Kala?”


“Daddy .. yes Daddy likes,” answers doubtful fear of hurting Liam.


“Qiara also likes it. Her expression was like Valerie pouting every time Ron saw Hailey.”


Devan was stunned again.


“That’s it! I want to transfer your school.” Liam chuckles.


“I often give my wits to Ron so I can get Hailey and Valerie.”


“Liam Patrick Donovy!”


Devan shook his head to hear his son's words. Liam chuckled once more before saying, “But seriously, Dad, you should tell Qiara how you feel.”


Devan termangu's.


“Daddy is afraid Qiara doesn't like it. Be ashamed. Qiara is still in love with her ex-husband.” Devan stuttered to realize he had just ventured into a seven-year-old.


Liam listened to his father carefully.


“Same as I said to Ron, go for it. You won't know if you don't talk about feelings.” Liam nodded firmly, satisfied with the advice once given to his friend.


“Did .. eehm Did Ron tell Hailey and Valerie?”


“How did it go?”


“It turns out Hailey does not like Ron, and Valerie even angry because Ron said he likes Hailey first. Ron got nobody. Zonk,” replied Liam chuckled.


Devan mcelos's.


“Thank you for the spirit, loh,”.


“But Daddy is not Ron. Daddy there's Qiara and there's Mommy. If from my analysis, Daddy should choose to talk to who first.”


Devan ruffled his hair, dizzy at the advice of his son.


“Dad, I'm serious. I'm just a daddy happy peeper. You don’t look happy with Mommy.”


Devan was stunned again.


“Not ... don't you want Daddy to marry Mommy?”


“Yups. Very much. But I have a friend whose parents keep fighting because they hate each other. I think, loh, yeah. I don't want Daddy and Mommy fighting. If I grow up later, I only want to marry the woman I love and love me, Dad,” Liam replied steadily while giving a thumbs up.


Devan smiled broadly at the long chatter. “Here, Daddy want to hug.”


“Nooo! What the hell is Daddy hugging ... I'm already big, Daddy ..”


Devan grabbed his son's body and hugged him tightly. Liam finally resignedly let Devan hold her tightly.

“Hi Babe,” greet Stella to Devan when they meet after a week she is in Brisbane.


“How are you, Stell? How was work?” Devan lowered his head as Stella was about to kiss his lips. He kissed a glimpse of Stella's cheek.


“Missing you so much. Friends ask why you don't nemenin me.”


Devan did not respond. He walked into Stella's apartment and sat on the couch.


“Why are you tense, Babe? Here I go massage. You used to relax after I massaged.”


Stella gets up to massage Devan's shoulders.


“Stell, sit. Something I want to tell you.”


“No! Whatever it is, it can wait. Tonight I'll make you remember our good times, Dev.”


“Please sit, Stell.” Devan grabs Stella's hand and invites her to sit on the sofa.


“I just want to hear a suggestion from you. Other that I don't want to hear.”


Devan doesn't care what Stella says.


“Stella, you must hear and understand. When you left, saying our marriage was a mistake, I was so devastated. Your marriage to Nick made me realize there was no other way but to forget you and our love. I managed Stell, until I finally got my life again.”


“Please, let me make amends, Dev. Our marriage is the best and most beautiful thing. Nick left me for a younger model.”


Devan smiled, “I've forgotten you, let go of our love. When we meet again, I think there's still some flavor left. I don't feel it, Stell. I don't miss you, I don't get jealous when you're around other people. Absolutely.”


“How could you, Dev? At least for Liam we have to try one more time.”


“I will always love Liam. Forever to be his father. You know co-parenting, we can raise Liam together without getting married. Not ideal but this is the risk of our decision just yet. We should be able to give understanding to Liam.”


“Dev, please, one time only. I'll prove that I really love you.”


“Enough, Stella! My decision is final.” Devan said loudly, making Stella jump.


“You know what? You said you'd take care of Liam's custody. Don't dream. You will never see Liam again. Enjoy your silly decision.”


“Try me, Stella. Try me.”


Stella stammered, she knew Devan could very well hire the toughest lawyers from all over the Australian continent.


“If you use Liam to blackmail me. Involving him in a custody hearing, I make sure the whole world knows the disgrace you're covering up. Aib that you secretly accused me of. Besides I will open your obsession back to me has made a single mother lose her job!”


“Oooh, so this is because of that lowly woman? Look, yes, until any time, I wouldn't be willing to have a stepmother like Qiara. Hickboats. Come on, Devan, you can get any woman who is much prettier.”


“Do not try to blame Qiara. It all comes from you Stell, you're the one who didn't give your love whole when we were married. You said our marriage was a mistake. Then you act like you're the victim.”


Devan can no longer resist anger. “Qiara is the cause you said? You know, he hasn't contacted me in the slightest since you and Liam walked back into my life. Wh why? Because he wants Liam to have a full-fledged parent. You mean? What do you do besides whining and sulking? Seven years ago I thought you were adorable with your manners, now I'm sick of it, Stella!”


Stella looks at Devan with her big eyes. He ran out of words because everything Devan said was true. He is the one who caused their homes to be destroyed. He is the one who shares the love and decides to leave.


Stella used a weapon that used to be powerful, tears.


“Dev, just once, please.”


“No. We better think about how to be good parents to Liam without getting married. Co-parenting. I learned a lot from psychologists at my hospital. If you want, please make an appointment.”


Devan stood up and walked towards the door.


“We may not have the opportunity to be together, but the opportunity to be a parent for our child is still very big. Don't spoil it with your ambition that is not because.”


Stella realized her ultimate weapon was no longer powerful. Within seconds the beautiful woman was out of control. He ran to get a fruit knife on the table.


“I'm going to kill myself, Dev. You're the cause of your child not having a mother.”


“No, Stella, YOU are the cause. Btw, slashing the pulse there is still a possibility of life. Then you'll have a scar on your hand. Wouldn't that reduce your modeling rates? No matter how much money you spend on surgery. And also, where there are clients who want to rent psycho.” models


Devan walked out. He had anticipated the extreme actions that Stella might take. The men are ready in the next apartment.


As soon as the door closed, Devan heard things slammed and Stella's screams.


“If you know, my pain is more than what you feel.”


Devan walks into the elevator, then enters as soon as the door opens. No matter what happened at Stella's apartment.
