A DIVIDED HEART

Episodes 121. Hug again

"Thank you, ma'am" I was about to open William's car door but the burly hand got in the way

"Why?" He did not answer just bring his face closer and thrust his cheek. I knew the code, and I shamelessly kissed it. Instead of moving away, he scooped my lips back, long enough we kissed until my breath was almost gone. My breath faltered and I took off the link

"If you don't want to stay at my apartment, can I stay at your house?" william's ugly smile returned he showed. He did not stop trying and kept trying

"Once I say no, it's still not!" I opened the car door and walked into my house, followed and followed behind me

I went straight into the house and went up to my room but William stopped in the living room and sat on the sofa, wondering why he came in. I paused my intention to enter the room and observe it

"You been a long time?" Dad had just come out of his room and walked over to William

"New, Om. I'm sorry I just got to take Agnes home at this hour" he explained, kissing the back of Dad's hand

"It's okay, Will. Om knows you're just starting that business and I'm happy to help you"

"Oh so William reasoned that if I helped him in taking care of his new business, very smart he was, if Dad knew what he had done to his daughter earlier. It's only fitting that since then he did not change clothes, so this is the reason" I said softly when hearing the second conversation

"Yes, Om. Agnes helped a lot this afternoon" is a really amazing lie, I don't think William who I know plainly turned out to be good at acting. I decided to go into the room to clean myself up

I who had taken a shower and changed clothes down and joined the two who still looked engrossed in laughter, I don't know what they were talking about

"Are you having no trouble this afternoon?" asked Dad for a moment as I sat beside him. I know what Dad meant and it's a good thing I heard their conversation earlier so it's easy for me to understand Dad's question

William looked nervous, he did not think the lie he said would be a bombardment for him, he hoped in his heart that I would not answer the question wrongly, if I get it wrong then he's finished this time

"No, Dad. I learned something new this afternoon and I think I'm quite the master" I saw William's sweaty face but after hearing my answer he didn't look nervous anymore

"If you're not tired, after work you can help him" Dad suggested to me, Willy's heart was strewn with joy. The green light was already in sight and the smile was unceasingly expanding

I heard that quite surprised, if Dad knew what was really behind the lie that William told him he would never let William pick me up and take him

"Oh yeah, what do you want to talk about?" my eyes were on William

"Tonight Willy came here to express Willy's heart. Me and Agnes are planning to get married and with that I ask for the blessing of om, I also ask permission om to return together with Agnes. Does it approve?" smoothly William expressed his heart, he this leg looks firm and authoritative, ignorant attitude and also nosy replaced already

"You don't have to ask that anymore, om will definitely bless you both. But the one who went through it all was Agnes. Do you want to take it?" now my father turned to me

With a steady heart I said yes and would accept William back. There is no reason to think or think a lot. He is a perfect and faithful man, there is not the slightest bad gap that appears to him even I myself feel inferior at this time to be with him and he asked me to be with him

"Thank you, Om for giving us both blessings, William will not make any promises, because William is now in a much different state than before but one thing is certain, William will try to be there at any moment"

"Love is not just about the material, son. True love is when you want to accept each other the shortcomings and also the advantages possessed by your partner. Happy for him, he belongs to the only one right now" William nodded

"Yes, Om. Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow I will catch up with my parents abroad. I will also ask for their blessing and tell them the happy news"

"Are you going alone or taking Agnes?"

"The plan is I just go alone but if om allow then I want to invite Agnes"

"Go if you want, I'll let you go"

"But what about the company, Dad. Aren't you troubled?"

Dad shook his head, "Don't worry about Dad, there's a Pras I can count on. Dad is no longer handling out-of-town projects for the next few months" Dad explained once again

"Please continue your conversation, I want to rest" Dad went into his room, leaving me and William in the living room

"Why do you keep smiling?" William stood up and approached

"You know, I was so scared when Kuncoro asked what we were doing this afternoon" Willy turned to and fro, he was afraid that the lie he had told was heard by his father

"Luckily I heard you say what you said to me, if you're not sure you're done tonight with dad" William scratched his head that didn't itch

"Eh but you said you said you had enough control over what we were doing this afternoon, didn't you?" god William again

"You know, rather than me speaking the truth, I follow the plot of your lies!"

"But you like it, right?"

"Should I say yes or no?"

"Not to be answered, anyway I know what the answer is"

"What indeed?"

"Of course, you may not like it either"

"Sokay know!" I stood up and walked to the back garden, Willy tailed and now hugging me, he kept walking while hugging my body tightly

"Mas, let go first. I want to get some flowers first"

"No, you can watered flowers, your hands are free"

"But heavy, mas"

"You mind if I hug?" I turned my body and stared wryly at William's face, without my cues kissing his thin cheeks after the smile re-expanded

"Help again" Wiliam stretched out his hands to me while whining like a boy

"Here, baby" I hugged him again and I took him to sit in the chair available in the little garden, I postponed the activities I was going to do earlier and now sit together with William, again, we sat facing each other and our hands were both intertwined

"Mas, I'm sorry that I've been angry a lot and thought you'd prefer your job to mine. Now I know that working is very time-consuming and we have to focus, working is not a mess because it involves the lives of many people" William rubbed my head gently

"Yes, honey. I understand that, we will never know what we didn't do, you don't have to feel guilty and blame yourself. The important thing from now on is that we have to open up to each other and talk about everything well" I nodded

"Don't want to go home?"

"You kicked me out?"

"It wasn't that, mas. It's late at night, don't you have to work tomorrow, I don't want you to be late?"

"Duh the attention of the future wife, so the more love"

"When will you go home now or later?" continued Willy

"Now yes, mumpung not yet malem" I rubbed back his thin cheeks, he nodded and stood up

"Hug first" I hugged him back long enough this time, after which William said goodbye and went home. Sometimes he looks and feels heavy leaving me
