Liora looked at Alvin, she slightly moistened her dry lips. One thing Liora realized, there was a different feeling when she was near Alvin. Either, because of their relationship that there is a problem or it is time that this feeling changes with time.
"You should know Al, as long as I am close to you, I love you. Without you knowing it, even though I'm married. But in my mind it's you, you and you. Even when I got married, the world was still on you, Alvin. You're the one who makes me feel guilty every time I remember my marriage. It hurts, yes Al," Liora said.
Alvin looked at Liora, that shady gaze was still his favorite but this time it was different, the gaze was implied disappointment even though Liora said she had forgiven him.
"As you said, I'm happy with my husband. As you can see the way he protected me, made me feel safe. Alvin, if you're the guy who hurt me. So, my husband is a man who can make me happy" Liora continued.
Liora pulled her lips to smile considering Zelvin's changed behavior, The man became softer and treated Liora well.
Alvin took his breath. Hypocritical, if Alvin says it doesn't hurt to hear that. "You love him?" ask Alvin.
Liora pulled the tip of her lips wider, "There's no reason I don't love Zelvin's sister, Al."
Alvin nodded. Damnit. It's paining. So hurt.
"Alvin, I stopped to love you. My world, not you anymore Al, but my husband. I hope you understand, this is the last time we interact like this,” Liora said.
With a heavy heart, Alvin nodded. "Lio, means we're friends now?"
Liora smiled faintly, she knew the meaning of Alvin's countenance. The man has not fully revealed Liora and the man is still expecting Liora, but Alvin looks earnest to learn to make love to her.
Otherside. Zelvin clenched his hands looking at the video sent by his man.Zelvin's breathing became heavy, his gaze turned sharp, especially when he saw Alvin holding Liora's hand - while kneeling before him.
"Damn!" sumpat Zelvin to the man who continues to express his regrets
"There's no reason I don't love Zelvin's brother, Al."
Zelvin rounded his eyes when he heard the sentence coming out of Liora's mouth. Zelvin pause his video, suddenly all his emotions evaporate just like that.
Zelvin felt something strange in him, Zelvin pulled his lips to smile thinly. "So what did Liora say?" zelvin's monologue, he rewinds the video to the second that Liora utters a sentence that makes her heart beat faster. Zelvin smiled broadly. He kept repeating the sentence, it felt so good to hear the sentence coming out of Liora's thin lips.
"There's no reason I don't love Zelvin's brother, Al."
"Oh my God, Liora, why are you making me this way," Zelvin murmured as he continued to smile widely and held onto his left chest that was beating fast.
...****************...
"Alice, is there brother Zelvin?" liora asked the secretary Zelvin.
Alice stood up from her seat, she slightly bent her body to pay homage to her superior wife.
"Good day, Lady Liora who is today very beautiful. By the way, ma'am, congratulations on graduating the script. Great mommy," said Alice with a smile.
"Thank you, Alice. How do you know?" ask Liora.
"Later Mommy Liora knew for herself who bothered from earlier. Eh yes forgot to answer, Mr. Zelvin is in the Madam, Mommy has also been waiting for the other one," said Alice.
"The others? Who?" liora Beo.
Alice simply replied with a smile. Alice allowed Liora to enter her superior's room.
"LIORA CONGRESS!" shouted the people in the room Zelvin compactly. Liora gasped in shock, she held onto a chest that was beating very fast. However, the next second he was shocked by the presence of his parents.
"Mommy? Daddy's? Aunt Krystal?" Liora ran over to Yuna and Jayden. Liora directly hugged Yuna very tightly, she channeled all her yearning.
"Liora dear, Mommy's daughter, congratulations yes you made it. Mommy is proud of you, you did your best. You're great, very great. Mommy loves you," said Yuna as she stroked her daughter's slightly quivering back.
"I also love Mommy, miss you too" Liora replied. Yuna let go of her embrace, she wiped her daughter's tears.
"Don't cry dong, it's your happy day" Yuna said. Liora nodded and smiled.
"Daddy isn't in the arms of princess?" chirp Jayden.
Liora smiled, she hugged Jayden very tightly. Jayden stroked her daughter's little back, "Happy beautiful princess
Daddy, you did it. You're great and always great in Daddy's eyes. Liora, Daddy is proud of you so there are no words to represent Daddy's pride to you. You're great, princess Daddy. You're great."
Liora let go of his embrace, "I love Daddy."
"Daddy loves you more, keep happy baby."
Liora nodded and smiled brightly.
"Liora," call Krystal. Liora turned her head, she smiled at the beautiful woman next to Yuna.
"Tante Krystal," Liora hugged her aunt very tightly.
"It's so great of you, Auntie is proud of you."
Liora let go of his embrace, "Thank you Auntie."
In addition to both Liora's parents and aunt Krystal, in Zelvin's room there were also both Zelvin and Moana's parents. They congratulated Liora on passing the thesis. They hugged Liora turn. Liora was so grateful to have such a wonderful family and to care for her.
Now it was Zelvin's turn, the man remained silent with a calm face. Not a single word came out from Zelvin's lips making Liora cluck.
Zelvin chuckled, he stroked the top of Liora's head. "Congratulations, I know you can. I'm proud of you." Zelvin pulled Liora's body into his arms.
"Mama Liora!" emmanuel.
Liora instantly let go of her embrace and turned her body to look at Emmanuel. Liora forgot about the presence of this son.
"Dear emmanuel," call Liora.
"You don't greet me, Mama is more like Daddy than me," Emmanuel fought with his pouting face made the whole room filled with laughter because of the anxiety of this child's behavior.
"Sorry, Mama forgot. Sorry huh?"
Emmanuel nodded, then he hugged Liora tightly. Real tight. "Mom I don't know what they're congratulating me on, but I'd like to say it too. Congratulations to Mama."
"Thank you, Emmanuel."
Liora wanted to carry Emmanuel, but...
"Don't be in a cradle, Emmanuel is heavy" Zelvin said, banning Liora.
"Sister.."
"Later you can ache, Liora."
Liora finally relented, she did not carry Emmanuel. True, Emmanuel is heavy.
Liora could not say anything more with the presence of her dear ones. Everyone gathered in Zelvin's room, although not all because of Jasmine's grandmother, Oma Eleanor and Giovanno, the younger brother was not there, the man was busy in the world of his lectures.
They had a little chat, then they went to the restaurant that had been booked by Zelvin. Liora was very happy. He got a lot of presents.
...****************...
Zelvin out of the bathroom. She looked at Liora who was opening one by one the gifts she found today, her face looking cheerful, even the girl did not fade her smile. Zelvin dried his hair with a towel while walking towards Liora.
Zelvin thrust a towel in front of Liora, "Dry my hair," Zelvin ordered.
Liora stopped her activity, she patted the empty spot next to her. "Here sit down first" Liora asked and then she picked up her towel.
Liora stood before Zelvin, she was painstakingly drying Zelvin's hair. Zelvin wrapped his hands around Liora's waist, he inhaled the distinctive scent of Liora's body.
"You want to know something, Lio?" ask Zelvin.
"What?"
"Then, I wanted to be angry with you because you were brave with Alvin" Zelvin explained, making Liora round her eyes.
Liora wanted to ask, but quickly Zelvin cut her off. "I know all about you, Liora. Liora, I do not like it when you are close to Alvin, let alone your hand reaching the man. But, all my emotions are gone when you say ..."
"Liora, this is the last time I saw you alone with that man. If next time you're like that, I can't forgive him. Understood?"
Liora nodded, "I understand. Brother Zelvin, I'm sorry for being with Alvin without informing you. I just want to break off the relationship I built with Alvin even if it's statusless, I want it all done."
"Now is it over?" ask Zelvin.
Liora nodded, "It's over."
"That means there's no reason for you to meet or be alone with him, okay?"
Liora nodded, "Yes, I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry."
Liora had finished drying Zelvin's hair. He wanted to sit next to Zelvin, but Zelvin pulled his body to sit on his lap.
"Liora, look at me," Zelvin pinta as Liora kept her head down.
Liora shook her head to reject him.
"Keanna," called Zelvin gently Liora raised her face, she looked at Zelvin. If it had called out to him like that, Liora could not resist it.
"Liora, I know, there is no love between us. But I want to build love between us. Keanna, let's try to love each other" Zelvin took seriously.
"Sir ..."
Zelvin stroked Liora's soft hair, "I'm serious, this is the beginning for us, Liora. I began to learn to accept destiny, accept your presence, accept everything."
Liora smiled and nodded. "Come on!"
Zelvin pulled Liora in his arms. She drowned her face in the recess of Liora's neck, the most comfortable place when she felt tired was Liora's embrace. Liora closed her eyes when she felt Zelvin's wet kiss around her neck. This guy always took the opportunity to kiss her.
"No already .." - Liora.
Zelvin instantly stopped him, he looked at Liora. "You open all the presents?"
Liora nodded.
"You're on my lap or du-"
"Sit on the chair alone," Liora cut off, quickly Liora got down from Zelvin's lap, she sat down next to the man. Liora re-opened the gift.
Zelvin stood up from his seat, he walked towards the open balcony door. He closed it because the air tonight was very cold, let alone Liora using her short pajamas sleeping arms and subordinates. Zelvin returned and sat down next to Liora.
"Tante Krystal, give me a dress, isn't it pretty?" ask Liora.
Zelvin nodded, "She is beautiful."
Liora continued to open another gift.
"This what?" liora asked the small box that looked like candy. Zelvin immediately took it, he was surprised by the male contraceptive device.
"Damn. Who is this love?" ask Zelvin.
"Jennie with Rafael."
True to Zelvin's guess, Liora's two friends were a little wild and ferocious.
"Open the other one," Zelvin said.
Liora nodded, she opened the gift from her in-laws. "Huh?" parrot Liora when she saw the gift from her in-laws.
"Who are you from?" ask Zelvin.
"Mama's with Papa" Liora replied.
Zelvin nibbled at the base of his nose when he saw the gift that Liora had gotten a little crazy. Mama and her Papa gave her lingerie which was very thin. God fucking. Zelvin's mind went where. It was contraception now lingerie.
"Throw away. Still want to open the card or tomorrow?"
"I want to open all the cards."
Zelvin nodded according to Liora's will.
"Who's that from?" asked Zelvin while pointing at the pink gift, Liora's favorite color.
Liora lowered her head, "Al-Alvin."
Zelvin nodded, "Father, just open it."
Liora opens a gift from Alvin. She frowned when Alvin gave the book 'How to be a good wife' and Thank you, great woman.'
"The book is suitable for you to read" said Zelvin.
Liora nodded, then she turned to the smallest gift of her parents. "Key?"
Zelvin nodded, "Daddy gave you a car, he said it was his promise when you graduated, he wanted to give you a car."
Liora published her smile, "Where does the car go now?"
"There's a garage" Zelvin replied.
"I want to see."
"Tomorrow."
"But-"
"The car won't run, Liora."
Liora relented, she looked at Zelvin. "The gift from brother Zelvin, where?"
Zelvin stood up from his seat, he walked towards his closet and picked up the box he had stored in the pile of clothes. Zelvin thrust the box in front of Liora, then sat back down.
"This what?"
"Open," orders Zelvin.
Liora opened the box, but she was surprised by the contents. "Huh, land letter?"
Zelvin nodded, "I've bought the mansion, on your behalf. I think this mansion is too small for us to live in."
"Small of where? It's big brother, why move?"
"I want to."
Liora nodded her head, free to argue with her stubborn husband.
"Ticket to England?" Liora was surprised to see there were tickets inside the box other than the land letter.
Zelvin nodded, "Let's take a vacation, please,"
Liora smiled happily, "Seriously?"
Zelvin nodded.
"Tok only two tickets? To which Emmanuel?" ask Liora.
"That's us going honeymoon, Lio."
