LOVE NARA

3.59. LOVE SIGN

Ardi kept waiting until Alya looked calm and could control himself again. The man also felt his heart ache when he saw how difficult it was for Alya to escape from the dark shadows of his past.

I'll always be by your side, Al. We fight together to fight back and free yourself from the shackles of that dark past. You can definitely forget everything and will live happily with me and Aura.

After a long silence to calm down, Alya finally opened her voice with a much brighter face and returned adorned with a smile.

"Sorry, I've ruined our night mood."

Ardi was stunned as soon as he heard Alya say a word at the end of his sentence. We're. Unconsciously her lips also arched a smile, returning a smile that was first revealed by the graceful woman before her.

"No, Al. Forget all that. The most important thing to me is you. You have to be brave and get up. Never be afraid and feel weak. There I am with you. You're gonna get well, Al. I will always be there for you, whenever you need me to share your joys and sorrows."

Alya nodded, trying to convince herself. He remembered Ardi's words and pecked them in the heart.

"I want to heal, Di. I want to forget my dark past. I want to live quietly. I want to be happy."

"You must be happy, Al. You should be happy. I'll make you happy. You believe me, don't you?"

Without waiting for Alya's reply, Ardi took the ring from inside the small box that was in front of the woman. He held it with his right hand and showed it confidently.

"May I put it in now?" ask without hesitation.

Seeing Ardi who had held the ring with confidence, Alya did not want to disappoint him. He nodded his head even though there was still fear that enveloped his feelings.

I can definitely fight it. I should be able to shake off his shadow. I can't give up and be weak again.

Simultaneously, Ardi and Alya extended each of their left hands forward. Ardi touched Alya's fingers which felt cold and trembling.

For the first time both hands touched. No doubt the touch caused not only Alya's hands to tremble, but her entire body also shook and stiffened.

Those bad thoughts and dark shadows of the past are coming back and trying to weaken it again. Alya immediately closed her eyes and continued to pray for strength.

Ardi, who knew the gelagat, tried to calm Alya by holding his fingers as gently as possible. The man knew, Alya still harbored the trauma of coming into contact with the opposite sex.

The physical violence that has endured for so long has created a bastion of thoughts to resist in an effort to protect yourself from similar actions that will be done by others.

"It's me, Alya. Trust me and keep fighting your fears."

Ardi let Alya calm down first, without letting go of his grasp. He wanted to help Alya recover her condition. One of them is with touch therapy that is currently being done.

The widower doctor tried it on the advice of a friend, who works as a psychologist and opens counselling and psychotherapy services. According to the friend, touch therapy is very useful to build a sense of comfort and trust in someone.

Hopefully what I did can help you heal faster from the trauma you experienced. There really is no other meaning to me. I just want you to recover and live everything as you should and as you should.

While Ardi waited patiently, Alya still continued to close her eyes and fight the dark shadow that still controlled her mind.

The fear kept suppressing her feelings and made Alya want to pull her hand from the man's grasp. But his efforts were in vain because Ardi continued to hold his fingers very tightly.

"I'm with you, Al. Trust me and never refuse. Let it stay like this and calm your mind."

Alya listened to Ardi's words and began to try to calm down with her eyes closed tightly.

"Just imagine all the good memories you can still remember. Imagine your happy moments. You can smile and laugh without burden. When you dare to do anything without any hesitation."

Slowly Alya began to follow the positive suggestions given by Ardi. The graceful woman opened up the memories of her forgotten past. He tried to remember them one by one and string them together in order to be remembered quietly.

A happy time when they begin to unite their hearts and express love for each other. A happy time where there were only smiles and carefree laughs between them.

Slowly Alya's defense began to weaken. His whole body gradually warmed up. His breathing began to be regular and slowly he was able to control his emotions.

Alya opened her eyes and looked at Ardi who was still waiting for her. Slowly he turned his eyes to the table. His hand was still held gently by the man's hand. A sense of haru rippled in the heart when he saw the grasp.

Seeing that Alya had opened her eyes and glimpsed at her, Ardi immediately put the ring she was holding on the ring finger of her chosen woman's left hand. The shady-eyed man smiled happily after pinning a love sign from him.

Alya noticed the special jewelry that had been sweetly coiled adorning her left hand. A jewel ring made of elegant white gold, it looks very beautiful and shiny.

"Thank you." His voice was soft and quivering, looking at Ardi who was still holding his hand and occasionally wiping it gently. Slowly his smile broke and he subconsciously returned the hand of the man.

Ardi further developed his smile as he felt the small movements of Alya's hands fused within his grasp. His heart trembled beautifully to get the very anticipated reply.

"I love you, Alya."

Alya's entire body warmed up with a face that had met red. For the first time he heard Ardi say the sentence again after they met and had a new relationship.

"Never feel alone again. Because from now on, there's me who'll always be there for you. Never be afraid again. Because at all times, I'll always take care of you and protect you."

There was nothing Alya could do anymore, other than nodding with feelings of harrumph. He loves that man. He loved her and needed her presence. He did not want to lose that man again. First love and last love in his heart. Love forever.

After her feelings were calm and restrained, Alya steadied her heart to determine her pace. There is still one more thing that sticks in the heart and wants to be resolved immediately.

"Ardi .. Can you take me somewhere?"
