Chapter 22
Leona was struck by lightning in broad daylight. "What's? Whatchu mean? You're kidding, aren't you? Yeah, right, Shane?" The petals of love that had just grown in Leona's heart, were now forced to fall one by one.
"I'm sorry, Leona. There's actually another woman I like. When we first met, I was going to forget about that woman. But as it turned out, that woman came back into my life and that feeling was back in my heart. I couldn't move forward because he had taken more than half of my heart" Shane replied. He lowered his face. The man understood that he was currently hurting Leona just for the sake of getting his niece.
Leona quickly took control of herself. He did not want to look weak in front of the man he had just loved. "All right, then. I don't think I love you too deeply either. So, come on, let's just end this relationship!"
After saying that, Leona gave her best smile, and she hurried away from the restaurant. Fortunately, that night he drove his own car. So that he could shed all his pain and disappointment without anyone seeing.
In the darkness of the night, Leona drove her vehicle at a fairly high speed. Until he arrived at a bar and he parked his vehicle there. The woman did not go straight into the bar.
"Come, Leona. No crying! You have to be strong, it's just an ordinary heartbreak and he hasn't harmed you at all. Strong, Leon!" said monologue. However, his tears were precisely rolling rapidly from his manic upstream.
Leona drowned her face at the wheel of the driver and this time, she succumbed to her grief. After being satisfied crying, she tidied up her makeup and got out of the car.
Tonight, he's determined to forget about Shane, the man who almost ruined his life. "Dry martini" Leona said. Not long after, a glass of drink with olive fruit on the edge of the glass came.
While Leona decides to entertain herself at the bar, Mario and Yuna are enjoying their time together at the cinema.
"I didn't expect you to like the thriller genre like that" Mario said after they finished watching the film.
Yuna smiled. That night, she looked cute in a crop top T-shirt covered with white cardigans and ripped jeans. "I don't like romance movies. Sometimes, my emotions get carried away and I end up in tears. It would be a shame if you saw me cry,"
Mario is quite satisfied tonight, because Yuna wants to go out with him and he talks a lot about this and that. "It doesn't matter to me. I've gotten to know you better,"
"When I get close to someone, I'll keep chattering without anyone stopping it. I said my grandmother, hahaha. Ah, no, I'm telling you again. I'm sorry," said Yuna. His smile was unflappable that night.
Mario ventured to hold him because one of the studios was open and dozens of people came out of the studio so that it filled the hall.
Yuna felt Mario's hand rising on her fingers. Suddenly, his heart was beating slowly. What is that feeling? Doesn't he just like Shane? Yuna had never joined hands with Shane, they were just kissing. That was only a few times.
"Are you cold?" ask Yuna.
Mario laughs. "Haha! Just tell me, I'm cold tonight,"
Yuna blushed in embarrassment. Because Laurent's message to them should not go home too late, then after eating, Mario drove Yuna home.
Her aunt's car isn't there yet, meaning Leona's aunt hasn't returned. For some reason that night, Yuna did not care about her aunt's relationship with Shane.
"Thank you, you made me laugh a lot tonight, brother Mario," Yuna said.
Mario smiled again. "I should be thanking you, Yuna. You allowed me to get to know you further. Suppose, next week you're empty, can I take you again?"
Yuna nodded in shame. "May, but most likely I will bring my tools of war, hehehe."
Both Mario's eyebrows fused together. "You mean?"
"I'll bring my books and my laptop, because I started to compile my thesis," Yuna said.
Mario laughed again. "Okay, maybe we'll spend the night at the donut and coffee shop downtown there,"
"OK, see you next week" Yuna said. The girl said goodbye and rushed down from Mario's car. As usual, he won't get in until Mario's car disappears down the road.
As soon as he was about to enter, again someone pulled his hand and took him into the car. "You're walking with that guy again?"
"Sh-, Shane? Aren't you with Aunt Leona? But, auntie hasn't returned yet. What's going on?" yuna asked worriedly. Supposedly, Leona's car was already at home because Leona said tonight she was going on a date with Shane.
