Friend Bed

Not an Indiscriminate Person

Laurie was so surprised to hear Alvaro's words, she was just pensive. His mind floated when Alvaro said an expression of love when talking about Nala. Seeing Laurie who was silent, Alvaro was so restless. She was afraid Laurie was uncomfortable with the expression of her love, and immediately rejected it just like that. He hurried to release his embrace from Laurie, then looked into the girl's eyes, which now looked confused.

"Laurie, I'm sorry. I'm sorry if I've been so presumptuous to tell you all this, I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable. Again, I'm sorry if I've been this presumptuous."

"Why should I apologize?"

"You're not comfortable if I say it like this?"

"Why do you think that?"

"Because you're just quiet. I thought you didn't like what I just told you."

Laurie smiles, and she is happy to hear Alvaro's expression of love, but what about Nala? For a moment he was hesitant with the words of Alvaro, if what was revealed by Alvaro was only to please him.

"I'm not sure what you're saying. You just lied to me, right?"

"liying? Why are you talking like that, Laurie?"

"Did you forget you said you were expressing love to Nala?"

"When did I say that?"

"Not much of a reason, Alvaro. Just now in front of you clearly said about the expression of love when I said Nala!"

It was Alvaro's turn to smile. "Are you jealous of Nala?"

"Jealous? Of course not, what is my business? Aren't we just patients and doctors?"

"What if I want more?"

"Alvarooooo! You turned out to be so flamboyant! Didn't you also reveal the same thing to my cousin Nala? You really don't know yourself!"

"Who? Who said that? In front of that I did not say that I expressed love to Nala, you are the one who came to a conclusion too soon. There was an expression of love between us, but Nala revealed it to me. While me? I don't feel the same for him. So when he said he loved me, I answered that I couldn't return his love. Sorry if this sounds cruel because I have rejected the love of a woman. But I can't lie to my feelings, I already like another woman, which is you!" answer Alvaro.

Laurie looked at Alvaro blankly, realizing that she was too quick to make a conclusion, alvaro had not said anything about the expression and he had already drawn the conclusion that he expressed his love for Nala. Perhaps, such an intense jealousy made him lose his mind. Laurie breathed her long breath while bowing her head.

"I'm sorry, I've misunderstood you, Alvaro" he said.

"So now you believe me, right?"

Laurie was silent, somehow her tongue felt so faint. He felt very embarrassed to have thought nothing of Alvaro. Looking at Laurie who lowered her head with a reddened hue, Alvaro then lifted Laurie's chin, then looked at the beautiful face with a gaze so warm, that the beautiful woman pulled both corners of her lips, then looked at the pretty face with a very warm look, then printing a smile on that beautiful face made Alvaro feel anxious. Slowly, she then brought her face closer to Laurie's face and pressed her lips together and held them so gently.

The surprised Laurie suddenly kisses her lips at first silent, but the next second she replies to Alvaro's warm kiss, and tastes each other sweet on their lips. For a long time they kissed so softly, that Laurie finally pushed a little bit of Alvaro's chest and let go of their kiss.

"I don't need an answer, your kiss reply is enough to show me how you feel."

"What if I just drift on that kiss? And don't have any feelings for you?"

"really? Then, if you don't have any feelings for me, how can you lie to me? Jealous of Nala, even to the point of asking our relationship ahead."

"liying? What did I lie to you?"

Alvaro then pulled Laurie's waist to have her body cling back to him. "Laurie, Zack actually let you go, didn't he? He's also filing a divorce lawsuit against you? Aye right?"

Laurie was so surprised Alvaro now knew his secret. He fell silent again, and behaved wrongly. Laurie was so embarrassed that Alvaro knew her lie. He lowered his head again, trying to avoid Alvaro's gaze which made his heart beat so fast.

"You why?"

"I'm sorry Alvaro, I'm sorry I lied to you" Laurie replied, bowing her head, for now she did not have the courage to look at Alvaro. When he felt so wrong, Alvaro suddenly hugged him.

"I'm the one who should be apologizing."

"You? Why should you? I lied to you, Alvaro."

"You lied to me because of my attitude, right? I'm too naive about my own feelings, I'm too stupid to make you feel confused about all my attitudes, right? My attitude shows that I'm interested in you. But not with my words. I realize what I did must have made you feel confused. I asked you to get married, and then I walked away from Zack, but I always denied the love that was in my heart. I'm sorry if my attitude made you feel tormented until you lied like this. You must have taken the time to stay with me, right? You must really want to find out how I feel and our relationship is going forward, right? Now you've got Laurie's answer. Even though I know it's too late. But, just so you know, I'm sincere with you. Once la... "

Alvaro could not continue his words, suddenly Laurie covered Alvaro's lips with her index finger. "It's enough not to apologize anymore, the most important thing is that we already know how we each feel, just forget everything that has passed, Alvaro."

Alvaro nodded his head. "Laurie, come to think of it, your marriage to Zack was illegitimate, right? Because you're only married together without your parents' consent. And Zack also got the marriage license by threatening the religious affairs office, without due process. But anyway we have to wait for you to finish the divorce process because your marriage is recorded in the laws of the country. After your dream is over, I'll marry you."

"That's why I don't want to be touched by Zack, because I'm not sure if this marriage is legal or not. There were no witnesses."

Alvaro then exhaled slowly. "Here you go, let's just wait for your divorce papers to come out. You want to marry me?"

"Do I still have to answer?" Alvaro smiled and then pulled the thin lips back.

Meanwhile, Zack who was just about to walk towards the gurney, was suddenly startled by the vibration of Nala's phone. However, the girl did not budge and remained asleep so soundly, while the call on the phone did not stop. Zack who was curious then saw the phone Nala put on the table. Zack then picks up the phone, and sees Mama's name on Nala's phone screen. Out of curiosity, Zack picked up the phone call.

[Hello Nala, how are you, honey? Two more days Mama and Papa want to go to China, if we have time to stop by Macau, you are still in Macau, right Nala dear?]

Hearing the words on the other end of the phone, Zack was shocked. "Nala? She's Nala not Caca? Then his parents went to China? Didn't he say that he's an incapable man? How could his parents go to China? Does this mean he's not a random person?" muttered Zack.
