LOVE IS A WOUND

Chapters 30. Fear of Love

Nick, who can't hide his existence, shuffles Love's hair. The woman was of course shocked and astonished. Not caring about the astonishment of Love, Nick immediately asked.

"Are you done with the salon?" ask Nick to get rid of the nervousness.

"Already from earlier. We're even from the boutique" replied Love.

Nick smiled with eyes that kept staring at Love. Noticing Nick's blasphemous gaze, the woman lowered her head hiding her reddened face in embarrassment. Mama Merlin who saw Nick kept staring at Love so smiled.

"Love is more beautiful, isn't it?" ask Mama Merlin.

"Yes, the more beautiful" said Nick, making the face of Love more red withstanding shame.

Nick takes Mom and Love to dinner at a restaurant. After eating the dish, they chatted. Starting from business and others. Love is only occasional.

"Sorry Bang Nick, Mama, I'm going to the toilet" said Love in the middle of their conversation.

"Need to be with mama?" ask Mama Merlin.

"No need, Ma. I can do it myself!" Love refused my mother's offer. He was unwilling to trouble the middle-aged woman.

Love walks slowly to the toilet. Ten minutes later he came out. While walking, Love sees Rangga. He quickly hid. They had a look. Love pray that Rangga does not know him because his current appearance changes a little.

Love is hiding behind the ladies' bathroom. Nearly an hour into hiding, Mama Merlin worries and asks Nick to follow. Both men tried to find. Mama went into the toilet and Nick looked around.

"Mama's gone into the ladies' room, but she doesn't see Love. Where is he, Nick?" asked my mother with an anxious face.

"Mama just wait in the car. Let me search. If not, maybe she's back at her husband's house" Nick said slowly.

"But there's no way she's going back to her husband's house. Love says her husband wants to abort her!" mama Merlin. The woman does not seem willing if Love returns.

Love sits on the sand beside the bathroom with a bow. His body trembled, out of fear. After searching for quite a while, Nick saw it. The man approached her and touched Love's shoulder. Beyond Nick's expectations, Love actually added more fear.

"Don't, Mas. Don't kill this kid. Don't make me throw it away" said Love of fear.

Nick understood after hearing the woman's words. She must have thought Nick was her husband. The man then squatted in front of Love.

"Love, it's me Nick. We home. Mama's waiting in the car" Nick said.

Love held her head up, when she saw Nick, she spontaneously hugged and cried. Nick also returned his embrace.

"Please, Bang. I don't want to meet my husband. Take me away" said Love sobbing.

Seeing Love's trembling body, Nick unexpectedly carried it. Love then hides his head on Nick's chest so that no one knows. He was still afraid that there was Rangga there.

Mama Merlin who saw Love in Nick's arms panicked. He thought something happened to that woman.

"Love why, Nick?" ask Mama Merlin.

"It seems she saw her husband, so frightened." Nick asked my mom to open the car door. The body of Love is lowered and placed in the back seat.

"Let my mom drive. You just keep love in the back."

"Just the mama who accompanied. I'm the one driving," Nick refused.

"Maybe she'd feel more secure if there was a man next to her. Feel protected."

"Sleep. Now you are safe. Don't worry, no one will dare enter this house without my permission" Nick said.

Mama covers Love. He kissed the forehead of Love. Feels warm. Mama is worried.

"Nick, Love's body feels warm. You just call the doctor. I'm afraid something's happened to her."

Mom looked panicked again. Nick tries to calm mom down by calling their family doctor.

"Ma, I'm okay. No need to call a doctor," said Love stamped. His body feels cold.

"How can you say it's okay while your body is shaking so" Mama said.

Mom sat on the edge of the bed. Hand grabbing Love. Trying to give that woman some comfort.

"You don't have to worry anymore. Mama is here" said Mama.

While waiting for the doctor, Nick and Mama accompany Love. Half an hour later, the doctor arrived.

The doctor checks the state of Love, and gives an injection. After a few minutes, he seemed to calm down and fell asleep. Mama tidied up Love's blanket and after that left the room. Let the woman rest.

"Nick, what if her husband Love takes her away?" ask Mama. They are both in the family room.

"Mama's Mean ...?" ask Nick. It seemed that the man did not understand his mother's question.

"What if the husband of Love knows of her whereabouts, and takes the woman away?" ask Mama again.

Nick did not answer. He seemed to be thinking about his mother's words. The man took a deep breath. It was hard to give a proper answer to her mother.

"It all depends on love. Whether she wants to go back with her husband or stay here. The choice is in the hands of Love" replied Nick.

"If Love does not want to return but her husband is forced because he feels there is a right, over his wife, how?" ask Mama again.

Mama Merlin is not only afraid that Love's husband will do violence to the woman again if he meets, but she is also afraid of being abandoned by Love. Two weeks together, the presence of Love can treat the taste of kangennya in the princess.

Mama Merlin was worried that Love's husband would force her to take her. He was not ready to lose a second time. She realized Love was nobody to her, so had no right to hold back her departure.

"If indeed Love does not want to return but her husband still forces, we can threaten the man. Didn't he force the aborting of Love. We're going to take that to the police" Nick said.

"Hopefully her husband Love does not know her anymore. Mama deliberately changed her appearance so as not to be recognized," said Mama Merlin.

"But I ask Mama not to expect that she will stay here forever. One day he might decide to leave. Mama should be ready to lose Love, because she's nobody Mama!" said Nick.

He deliberately reminded Mama Merlin so that the woman did not pour out her affection too much. If later Love goes not too sick.

Elsewhere, Rangga looked pensive. He also remembers love.

"The woman I saw earlier in the restaurant is similar to Love. But their appearance is very different," said Rangga in his heart.

Rangga took a deep breath, remembering about his wife. "Is there still an apology from you for me Love?" ask Rangga.
