I LOVE MY HANDSOME DRIVER

Episode 18's

Along the way no one spoke, Jeffry and Valery were equally silent. Both are swept up in each other's minds. They were in the first hospital. Jeffry held Valery's hand toward Paul Sean's nursery.

"This is my brother Vale, his name is Paul Sean. That night he had an accident at the Cipali toll after arguing with his lover." Jeffry laughing. "And even funnier, it turns out that her boyfriend is my own secretary. And I don't know at all what kind of brother I am."

Valery clasped Jeffry's hand. "Calm down Jeff, your brother must be so proud to have a brother like you. I'm sure he'll be up soon."

"Thank you Vale, there's actually something I want to say again. It's about my past. I really need your help." said Jeffry.

"Say, I'll help you if I can Jeff" Valery replied.

"Not here, I don't want to add to Paul's burden. I'm sure he can hear us even if he hasn't regained consciousness" Jeffry said.

Valery nodded. "It's up to you to talk where. I'm ready to listen."

"Vale, have you forgiven me and accepted me?" ask Jeffry.

"There's a condition." replied Valery.

"Whatever it is, say it." said Jeffry.

"Anything? You're so overdone Jeff." Valery said.

"I'm serious Vale, whatever you want as long as I can get you. I'll do it." replied Jeffry. His face is very serious.

"All right, my condition is that you never love anyone but me Jeff" Valery said.

Jeffry smiled happily. "That's not to doubt Vale. Whatever happens, you will be my love. In my life, it's just you. Not just as my lover but as my companion."

Valery narrowed his eyes. "Is this a proposal?" tanyakanya.

Jeffry shakes. "I'm gonna propose to you in the beautiful Vale, not the hospital."

Valery laughs. "I'm just kidding Jeff, are you ready to tell me? If we have, we better go to the hospital garden." Valery drew closer to Jeffry and whispered. "It seems your sister's lover has come, many times he peeked."

"really?" jeffry asked in surprise.

"Sssstttt...Let's go to the park." take Valery.

Jeffry nodded and followed Valery out. Ana was already in front of the room. "Why don't you go in Ana?" ask Jeffry.

"I'm sorry sir." replied Ana.

"Call me brother, just like Paul did when he was outside Ana's office" Jeffry said.

"But.." said Ana.

"Follow your superior Ana's will, greetings. I'm Valery Arnold." said Valery.

"I'm Ana bu Vale, you're the owner." answered Ana but her words cut off Jeffry again.

"Yes right, it's in there, I need a minute" Jeffry said as he held Valery's hand and left Ana.

Ana is surprised by what Jeffry does, she finally knows her boss has a very beautiful lover and of course the owner of PT. Beautiful Diamonds. He immediately went into Paul's room.

The night air in the hospital garden calmed both. The park bench is indeed very suitable for both of them to talk. Valery also saw a star that happened to be present tonight accompanying them.

"It's really pretty." Valery replied.

"It's not the star, but you're Valery Arnold" Jeffry replied.

Valery lowered his gaze toward Jeffry. "Do you usually flirt with women?"

Jeffry shakes. "I do date a lot, but not with the real meaning and I don't like flirting with women at all."

"I don't want you to do it anymore, I don't want you to have HIV" Valery said, upset that he knows what men do.

"I won't do it again, baby, before I know you I've been out for over a year" Jeffry replied.

"really? So a week ago because you wanted to let go of your passion that you hadn't channeled in a year." - Valery.

"Hey.you still don't trust me baby, I really want you. If it wasn't a hospital, maybe.." Jeffry teased.

"No, you married me and I just did. I don't want you to just leave me." replied Valery.

"I'm sorry Vale, I was wrong. But this is all unexpected Vale. So you want to marry me?" ask Jeffry.

"Depending on how smart you can take my heart" Valery replied.

Jeffry leaned his body towards Valery. "Aren't I able to take your heart yet?"

Valery's face flushed red, of course the man had already stolen his heart. "So what do you want to tell me." Valery switched the conversation.

"It's a very long story, I'm afraid you're tired of hearing it. But I need your help, Vale." replied Jeffry.

"Yes, say Jeff. I'll listen to it." Valery said.

Jeffery took a deep breath. "I was abandoned by my mother when I was 10, Paul was 4, and my father had just died. The woman left us to marry a Canadian man. She easily left me without caring for my whining. I'm confused about how to take care of a very young Paul. I try to stand on my own feet without asking others for help. Even the money that the woman sends every month, we never touch. I was once a beggar, a busker and a scavenger. We never ate Vale." Jeffry took his breath, he held back his cries. Valery patted his shoulder.

"I was trying to be a smart kid so I could get a school scholarship from Junior High School to High School. I also got a scholarship to go to college. I worked on my own skills until I was able to build a company of this size and was able to send Paul to this day. Only one friend I can count on since Junior High is Ramon. That man was with me until now Vale. My suffering for decades still rests in my heart. Every day I have to face that nightmare. You've heard me delirious, haven't you?" ask Jeffry.

Valery nodded. He also could not help his crying when Jeffry told him. His life is exactly the same as her.

"And after decades of this too, after me and Paul get through everything. The woman called me, she wanted to meet and apologized for explaining everything. But know Vale, I don't want to see his face. Since that day I have thrown a mother out of my life. But yesterday he sent me an email that he was heading to Indonesia. He really didn't think about how I felt about dealing with Vale. He knows that Paul was in an accident. So he forced his way here and wanted to see us. Jeffry closed his eyes. What am I supposed to do Vale?" tanyakanya.

"Jeff, I've had the same trouble. But the difference is my parents died in an accident. But your mother must have had a good reason why she left you. In my opinion, meet and listen to all the reasons. After that you can decide, what you should do next." replied Valery.

Jeffry blinked his eyes many times so that his tears would not spill. "I don't have the strength to meet him Vale. All I remember is the pain of the day. A 10-year-old boy has to live with the burden of raising his sister alone. Asking for the mercy of others. God, does a mother not have any feelings." Jeffry's tears finally spilled.

Valery hugged him. "Take everything out Jeff, don't take it" Valery said. He could not help his crying either. While stroking Jeffry's back. Valery says. "I'll go with you to see Jeff, I'll give you that power."

Jeffry let go of his embrace. That's what he wanted from Valery. "You want to help me?"

Valery nodded. The two hugged back, minutes later a long silence ensued in the park. Both of them dissolved in their gazes into the star-filled sky.
