Linger

As Long As He Loves Me

Inside Irina's apartment room, Gavin stands in front of a glass window that allows her to look across the street, where tall office buildings appear to be standing firmly towering as if they were the real rulers, which succeeded in making the humans in it forget time and sink with burdens named work.

Still in the room, precisely on the sofa not far from where Gavin was standing while hurting both hands, Irina sat while looking at Gavin's wide back. His usual back was patted when the man came to him in a fragile state. The back that he had always looked at until it completely disappeared when they parted. The back that he once dared to claim as his own, but now forced to split in two with others.

Unlike the first time when Gavin thrust the news of his match with Kalea, where he was extra and constantly reminded Gavin that the man was only his, now Irina a little breastplate. Because after all, his decision to let Gavin marry Kalea had made him realize that the sense of ownership was indeed not supposed to be maintained from the beginning.

After all, Gavin always knew where to step. The proof alone, although he did not ask, the man came here willingly. It was Sunday and it was only natural that he would spend time with Kalea.

"Vin?" call Irina quietly after a long moment of silence.

Gavin. The look on her face looked serious and Irina was no wonder because that was the real Gavin suit.

"You're actually here because you miss me?" asked Irina while fixing her sitting position, looking for the most comfortable position to listen to her lover's answer.

Gavin did not make a sound. The man simply nodded without even seeming to think a bit. That of course made Irina's smile unfold without being held back.

"But it's Sunday."

Next to Gavin's eyebrows raised, he was clearly confused. "I know it's Sunday. So what?" tanyakanya. Then he walked closer towards Irina. Sit down and bring Irina's legs up on her thighs. His burly hands began to slowly incline the hard-working feet walking on the catwalk using the high heels.

"I mean, Sunday is the time to get together with the family."

"I did's. You're my family, don't you?" while his hands were still massaging Irina's legs, Gavin turned his gaze to the woman.

"Definitely." Irina again confirmed her slightly sagging sitting position. "But I mean, you're married, shouldn't you be the same Kalea?" continue with a smile that is desperately held. It had been a long time since he had not lured Gavin with questions about Kalea. So today, she wanted to test a little of her own heart's resilience to see what kind of answer Gavin would give.

When Irina felt the massage on her legs stop, Irina looked at Gavin more and more. The man had nailed to him for a few seconds before finally returning to throw his face and continued his activity massaging Irina's legs.

"Kalea was at her parents' house. There's Karel there, so he's not gonna find me. She's really happy when she's with him. He won't have time to find out where I am and what's wrong."

To be honest, Irina just wanted to hear Gavin answer as necessary. Or even told him not to carry around the name of Kalea like the last time they were involved in a debate. But, hearing Gavin explain at length like this, there was a pain that was slowly felt in his chest.

Although already knowing Gavin's answer made her sick, Irina instead stopped asking, she instead asked another question that would contribute more pain to her.

"You disappointed?"

"About what?" Gavin turned back.

Irina saw that disappointment in Gavin's eyes. He could clearly see it because of the many things inside Gavin, that male eye was the only one he could read well. But what Gavin said through his lips was clearly inversely proportional to what the man actually felt.

After sighing heavily, Gavin said "Can we stop talking about her when we're together? I just want to spend my time with you."

Irina smiled faintly, inwardly beginning to mutter here we go again when again Gavin tried to keep everything about Kalea away from her.

If you want to think positively, Irina could just consider it as an effort Gavin to minimize the wounds that will arise in her heart because of this marriage. But if it was thought negatively, Irina felt Gavin was just trying to protect Kalea. It was as if the man did not want anything about Kalea to reach his ears so he did not have any provisions to threaten the woman's safety.

I don't know which is better for Irina to think about right now. But in the end, Irina decided not to continue their conversation and inched closer towards Gavin. He fell on the man's nape and immediately he sprinkled two kisses on his thick lips.

Getting a surprise attack after an unexpected question presented to him certainly made Gavin a little slow to react. If I'm honest, after the question Irina made, Gavin's head began to gradually return full of Kalea's name and he had trouble focusing on being with Irina.

"Let's not talking about others when we're together." Irina said right in front of Gavin's face.

Gavin's body still feels frozen. He was still trying to restore his head and began to fulfill it with the name Irina. However, he still failed at the experiments that had been done many times. Kalea's name still fills her head, even when Irina's soft and warm lips touch hers.

When Irina's hand reached for her nape to deepen the pagutan, Gavin still couldn't even reply to every move Irina made on her lips. Gavin desperately tried to draw his consciousness to focus on simply echoing Irina's name in the head and always ending up in vain.

Until finally, Gavin gave up. He stopped trying to drive Kalea out of the head. Whether there was Irina or not in her head at the moment, it was clear that Gavin still had to reciprocate Irina's treatment so that the woman was not disappointed.

So, under the name of Kalea who has now invaded all parts of his brain, Gavin pulled Irina's body onto his lap. One hand was anchored on Irina's slender waist, holding her smaller body from falling. While one other hand grabbed Irina's nape so she could touch more of the parts on her lips.

Their kisses grew more intense and Irina started whispering a single sentence to herself. A comforting sentence that he hoped could be powerful enough to suppress his pain a little longer.

It's okay. As long as he loves me, I'll stay.

Then Irina completely emptied her head as the kiss that was originally just anchored on her lips now began to descend to her neckline.

Seriate.

For those who want to blaspheme Gavin or Irina, time and place are welcome.

See you next chapter bye bye!!!
