Conquering your Love

EP 31

"Come in, Hans!" lillian's grandmother told Hans to enter her apartment. LiLian's grandmother's apartment is not much different in size with Lana, but Lana's apartment looks simpler and has fewer items. The color of Grandma LiLian's apartment is dominated by yellow and white so it looks cheerful.

Hans took off his shoes first and left his socks on before entering the living room. Then, Hans sat down on one of the couches and waited for the new grandmother to put her bag and get drinks for the two of them.

Hans waited long enough, thinking Grandma would only give him water. It turns out that grandma showed up with a cake and black coffee. Grandma put the coffee and cake carefully on the table.

"Drink, son. It looks like it." said grandma. Hans obeyed grandmother's orders to take his coffee and cake. Hans ate the cake like a sponge but it was very soft and not too sweet.

"Ah, it's so good for you." praise Hans.

"Thank you?" ask the grandmother with a face of enthusiasm and happy to be given a compliment.

"Yes, where did Grandma buy it? I want to buy this cake again. Gentle and not sweet, very to my taste." explains Hans.

"Grandma do it yourself, son. Grandma likes to eat sweet foods, but because it's old, so you have to be careful and know yourself." explained grandmother Lilian.

Hans took another cake, because he really enjoyed the cake. Lilian's grandmother was very happy to have guests, because she only lived there alone and sometimes lonely. One of the people accompanying him was only Lana. A very kind and caring neighbor is like his own grandson.

"You're Lana's boyfriend, son?" ask grandma without further ado.

Hans, who was drinking his coffee after the second cake ran out, almost spouted his coffee.

"No, grandma."

"Then you go after him?" ask grandma again out of curiosity.

Hans was still silent as he himself was confused by his attitude lately. Is he chasing Lana? Or just because his ego felt being trampled by the girl because of his change in attitude? inner Hans.

"Do you love her?" Grandma asked more honestly.

"Where is grandma... I am confused myself! I already have a boyfriend" Hans said.

LiLian's grandmother rounded her eyes as Hans answered her honestly.

"If you've got a boyfriend, son, it's not good to play with women's feelings. Lana is a nice girl that grandma considers like grandmother's own granddaughter. Poor that girl. He always tried to look tough, but actually he was fragile. He always tries to smile in front of others. But grandma knew, there was sadness and loneliness in the girl's eyes." Lilian's grandmother explained to Hans.

Should I stop my plan?

But I don't know how I feel about Lana. I can't just back off right now. If I love Lana, then it's a good time to go after her before she turns to me. Clearly, my body was reacting to him and not to another woman, Inner Hans.

"I'm confused, grandma. But I really had no intention of hurting him. I promise." Hans looked into Lilian's grandmother's eyes confidently.

Grandma looked at Hans and saw that this young man showed himself not lying. Grandma exhaled and then got up from her seat and walked towards the exit of her apartment.

"You wait here. Grandma will try to knock on Lana's apartment" said Lilian's grandmother.

Hans just nodded then waited for grandma to return. Hans hopes that grandma can help him to see Lana.

Lana got up from her sleep and took a shower. As he was about to walk towards the kitchen to cook, there was the sound of a doorbell. Lana hesitates to see who has come, but eventually she decides to see who has been hitting the bell. Lana tries to tiptoe slowly while walking so that people outside do not know that she is inside. Understandably because the apartment where he lives is not a luxury apartment, so it does not have a good silencer.

Lana was already behind the door and when she was about to peek at the small hole, Lilian's grandmother's voice calling out to her from behind the door was already heard.

"Son Lana.... Son Lana.... Are you inside?" said grandmother Lilian.

Lana immediately opened the door without a second thought thinking that something had happened to Lilian's grandmother.

"Yes, grandma. Is grandma okay?" lana asked as she inspected Grandma's body out of worry.

Lilian's grandmother looked at the worries of her little girl, just a small smile.

"Grandma needs your help in the room. Do you have time?"

"There, Grandma. There's gotta be a dong for grandma!" lana's strict.

Without waiting anymore, Lana immediately took Lilian's grandmother's hand to return to her apartment. When entering the apartment, Lana had a thought when she saw a pair of men's shoes lying in front of her. But Lana remained unsuspecting at all until she saw the figure of the man she wanted to avoid sitting on the sofa.

"Would you like to come here?" lana asked coldly.
