LOVE IN LIFE
42



Amelia couldn't wait any longer, she went straight to the living room to pick up Dama who was being fed by Maria. Maria was surprised because she was very comfortable with her granddaughter.


"Amelia, wait!" said Maria withholding.


Amelia silence.


"Davin loves you. You're the only love of her life" Maria said.


"Sorry Mom, I shouldn't have come here. I shouldn't have gone with Saga and brought Dama. Should've..."


"Think, this is all destiny. You decide to accept Saga's love, meet her family and find out that Dama's father is Saga's sister. It's all Amelia's destiny" Maria tries to persuade her.


Amelia was still walking, just wanting to get out of the house quickly. But his steps came to a halt when he saw Davin standing before him. Amelia turned her eyes away, as she always remembered the events of that night. He steps away from Davin and approaches Saga.


"Stay there! Pity Dama if you have to go out at night like this. He will be sick" Davin said.


Ghani, Saga, Harris and Mira who were in the room looked at Davin when they heard his words. Except for Amelia who won't turn to him again.


Saga pulls Amelia's hand to listen to Davin whose words have a point. Amelia shook her head, she did not want a second to linger in the house.


Saga clasped Amelia's hand tightly and then hugged her.


"Tomorrow morning, I'll arrange a ticket to go straight to Montreuill" whispered Saga.


Amelia rounded her eyes at Saga, she did not understand Saga's attitude. He was very eager to go home and try to invite them away, but this time lost just by Davin's words that sounded worried about Dama.


"Why are you? You wanted to go home so badly, now you're persuading me to stay overnight. No Saga, I can't. They just want Dama, they won't pity me. I understand how your grandmother did it. I don't want Saga I don't want Dama to grow up with other people, I don't want to" Amelia started to panic.


Saga hugged her tighter, as well as closing her ears so as not to hear her mother's cries.


"I beg Saga, let's go home. You'll never imagine how cruel your grandmother was" Amelia said.


Ghani and Alex, as well as Maria and Harris, who understand what Amelia is saying, bow their eyes. But Saga and Davin frowned they felt Amelia was overreacting to Oma Mira's attitude.


"Davin's right, you should also calm down. You can't get out in this state. You need to calm down, you see Dama panicking because you're panicking" Saga tried to persuade her.


Amelia buried her face into Saga's chest and then cried. Davin glared and turned his gaze the other way because he was jealous to see her. Ghani can't do anything to see her daughter trust Saga more than she does.


Finally Amelia collapsed, she wanted to be invited into the room by Saga. Amelia just sat staring at Saga trying to calm down the crying Dama for fear of seeing her mother hysterically.


Meanwhile, Oma Mira, Harris and Maria also returned to her room. And Ghani came home empty-handed and a lethargic face.

In the room, Bella looked at Davin who was still walking back and forth, then she laughed at Davin's attitude.


"Aren't you going to explain something to me?" ask Bella with a kettle.


Davin's move stopped.


"Oh yeah, I forgot. I'd better move rooms" Davin said.


Bella wakes up from her bed and holds Davin's steps outside.


"Do I really mean nothing to you?" bella asked as she looked at Davin with her puffy eyes.


Davin tries to refrain from answering Bella's questions.


"Until when are you going to ignore me? You'll never marry that servant of your last night's passion if I don't agree to it"


Davin raises his hand when he hears Bella's call to Amelia. Bella closed her eyes, frightened when she found out Davin was so angry she called out to him with a bad call.


Davin brushed off Bella's body blocking the door. He went out and went to another room. While Bella cried because she was hurt by Davin's speech and attitude.


"I'd rather be slapped by you than ignored like this Davin" she said in tears.

In the room Harris was quietly sitting on the sofa, while Maria was still staring at the window of the room looking into the garden that she and Saga cared for together first.


"How does the girl understand about Mom?" ask Harris.


Maria heard it, but she didn't look. He's lazy to talk to Harris.


"It must have been about the incident when Saga found out about me and Ayu" Harris said.


Maria nodded, not wanting to hear anything else from her husband. Maria walked out of the room ignoring Harris who was looking at her in annoyance at not wanting to be discussed.


Harris threw the towel on the floor because of his annoyance.

Amelia looked at Saga and Dama who were sleeping together. While he was very upset because he kept remembering the words of Oma Mira who would hold Dama to stay.


He stared at the empty glass on the table, he exited the room to grab a glass of water, afraid that Saga would wake up thirsty.


Amelia walked slowly because she did not understand the direction to the kitchen from their room. But in the end he found his kitchen and took water for him to drink and he filled it again to drink Saga.


"You okay?" davin said suddenly from behind him.


Amelia was stunned as if electrocuted by Davin's voice. His eyes closed feeling as if Davin was whispering in his ear.


Amelia tried to control herself, she took a deep breath, was about to turn around and ignore Davin.


But Davin's hand grabbed his arm and made himself close to Davin.


"You want to ignore me?" whispered Davin who was now really near his ear.


"Take me off!" amelia said with a breath that began to sting.


"I totally understand you can't just forget the night we spent. Because I also can never forget it" Davin said closer to Amelia's cheek.


Amelia's chest was deflated, her hands trembling to get a touch of Davin's nose on her cheek. The water in the glass he was carrying was spilled slightly on his clothes.


"Stop, I beg you, let me go, you hurt me" Amelia said.


His voice became weak, unlike the first time he asked to be released. Amelia also felt like she was remembering every incident that night.


Davin smiled feeling confident of their feelings being the same. He hugged Amelia from the side and brought her nose closer to Amelia's ear.


"You tortured me with this longing Amelia. You tortured me by refusing to have any further relationships. You yourself are tormented by self-control by trying to forget me but you can't" Davin said.


Amelia's breathing was getting up and down hearing all Davin's sayings. Then Saga's smiling face on her as she says that she always remembers Davin, making her reject all her feelings.


"No, I can't do it. Let go of me Davin I beg you" said Amelia.


Davin took Amelia's hand off and let her go. But Amelia paused for a moment, recalling the time Davin left so easily after she turned him down. The same thing she did now, it was so easy for her to let go of Amelia's hand after she said that she couldn't do it.
