Arthur drove back to his car. This time the goal is not to go home, but to Bristol. No matter how tired he was, but he had to vent everything immediately.
Arthur still can't believe that Hanna just left him. Though he was always sure if Hanna's feelings would change for him. That confidence was of course obtained after his cooperation with Hanna for almost two years.
But who would have thought, if it turned out that the feelings in Hanna's heart did not change direction at all. Though he has done anything to make Hanna finally return his love.
Arthur recalled El saying it would be difficult to change Hanna's feelings. Because, only her ex-husband is a man other than his family who is known and close to him. El also said that even if Hanna did not love her ex-husband anymore, her choice would definitely fall to someone else. Not her or her ex-husband.
"Arthur, have you met Hanna?" Ask El over the phone.
"Hm. Why have you been quiet all this time, El? Why don't you tell me anything!" Arthur shouted, as if he was cursing at Eleanor. It seems so, hehehe....
"Hey, why blame me now?" Eleanor defended herself. "Try you remember first, all this time it is not you who always refuse if I will tell you something. I've even warned you from the beginning, even if you become more handsome and rich though, Hanna won't fall in love with you. You remember?"
"But this is not fair, El. I've been trying so hard all this time, won't Hanna be able to appreciate me just a little?"
"He appreciates you, Arthur. I swear that Hanna has been trying to repay your love, but it turns out that her heart is not that easily moved because of your treatment of her all along. And again, I think you've been too pushy, Arthur."
"Forced? When do I force? I wouldn't even kiss her if she didn't want to."
"That's not what I mean, but you haven't given her the space to convince her that you have a proper replacement."
"You mean?"
"You're too domineering, Arthur. You're so overprotective of her, and I think it's what makes Hanna uncomfortable to be in a relationship with you. You're too restrictive, not even giving Hanna the freedom to meet other people. Especially everything that concerns her ex-husband. Your relationship is just dating, Arthur. And you should be aware that our culture with Hanna is different. Your fatal mistake that made Hanna not want to repay your love is. You forced to sleep and stay together. It hurt her feelings, Arthur."
"Currently, she doesn't want to sleep with me but instead sleeps with her ex-husband? It's really amazing."
"Hey, speak the truth! Hanna never even slept with her ex-husband. Their marriage used to be a charade. If you had tried to open up and let Hanna tell you everything, you would have respected her more, Arthur. But now you're accusing him of nothing."
"I'm not accusing him, El. I have proof. They went on vacation together to Robin Hood's Bay and they slept together while there. You can ask Hanna if you don't trust me, I'll send you the evidence I have."
...****************...
The trip was quite tiring for three hours without a break that makes the anger Arthur increasingly peaked. With big steps he walked towards the building where Rafa works, even though he did not know where exactly Rafa works.
"Excuse me." Arthur stopped a woman from entering the building.
"Eee... Is there an employee here named Rafa?"
"What do you mean Rafardhan?"
"I. I don't know his full name. All I know is that his name is Rafa, and he's from Indonesia. I lost contact, so I couldn't reach him. Can you help me?"
The woman nodded. "Okay, I'll tell you."
"Okay, thank you very much"
"Why didn't I ask her name?" Speak with a stopped step.
Theresa was hesitant to go back down and meet the man to ask for a name, not to mention that there was work to be done now. So he decided to go back up the stairs and go to his study.
Theresa pushed open the door of the room, then looked towards Rafa's desk. Thankfully Rafa is at his desk, because if not it will make his job delayed.
"Rafa, there's someone looking for you downstairs." Said Theresa, her co-worker.
"Someone?"
Theresa nodded her head. "Yes, a man. I'm sorry I forgot to ask her name, but she's waiting for you in front of the building."
Rafa was curious, who was the male figure who was looking for him? It is not usual to receive guests during business hours.
Rafa nodded and thanked Theresa. After neatly arranging his files, he immediately got up from his seat and went down to meet his guest.
His mind was still wondering about the figure of the guest who was looking for him. Eventually he exited the building, and there was only Arthur standing there.
Rafa rolled his eyeballs, what dreams he had last night until Arthur came to see him instead. Rafa even asked Arthur to come here, but the man he knew as Hanna's lover immediately gave a punch that was quite hard on his left face.
That moment made Rafa shocked, as well as the people passing by there. Some college students even screamed hysterically when Rafa fell down from a blow from Arthur.
Not enough to get there, Arthur as if not give Rafa pause to reveal the question in his brain to him. Arthur approaches Rafa, pulls Rafa's shirt collar and beats him again. Until finally Rafa managed to push Arthur and retaliate to beat Arthur.
"So what did you mean by coming here?!" Rafa asked after smashing Arthur.
Arthur spat, then wiped the blood at the end of his lips. He then encouraged Rafa to stand up and explain the intention of his arrival to look for Rafa.
"You shouldn't be here! You shouldn't have to be around Hanna all the time and make her tormented!"
"Have a good chance?" Rafa was confused by the meaning of Arthur's words just now.
"Because of Elo, he's been traumatized to be in a relationship with someone. And since your vacation to Robin Hood's Bay, Hanna's been tormented even more!"
"E-elo know Hanna's there with me?"
Arthur nodded. "Elo can ask that to Giulia. Because he was the one who spied on you all the time there, and sent me your pictures."
Rafa fell silent, not expecting Giulia to be there at the time. Even Giulia took a picture of her being with Hanna and sent it to Arthur. Could that be the reason Giulia avoided him?
"Elo can't believe that and accuse the non-existent. We're going to Hanna's apartment now."
Arthur laughs. "Too late! He's back now."
