Love of the Past

Can't Not Care

"My ring may be in the apartment" Eldar said after he got dizzy thinking about where the ring was.

"Don't let go let alone lost. That's not good" Neva said, then started to enjoy her meal.

Both of them eat in silence. No one's talking. Neva tried to enjoy her delicious meal. Eldar, who initially had no appetite, was also happy to see Neva enjoying his meal. He finally enjoyed that lunch.

"Now, what kind of concept do you want?" neva asked after they finished eating and the restaurant waiter had cleaned the table.

"I don't know."

Neva frowned. "So, why are you taking me to lunch here?"

"To be honest, I just want to talk to you."

Neva immediately put the notes and pen into the bag. "You've wasted my time, El" Neva said, leaving Eldar.

"Neva......!" Eldar. After he managed to hold the woman's hand, Neva turned and looked at her.

"What's wrong? I'm going home."

"I'm taking it."

"I can do it myself."

"Eva, you know it's out of town. Come.....!" Eldar quickly pulled Neva's hand towards his car.

All the way back to the city, the two were silent to each other. Neva had no idea why she could not resist Eldar's wishes. He should have just taken a taxi.

Eldar deliberately followed the back road so that they would arrive faster. Will not be stuck in traffic if you have to go through the main road.

It rained very hard. Until finally, Eldar felt there was something strange about his car. He checked the car screen and was told that the rear car tire on the right, deflated. They are now on a quiet road and the rain is getting heavier.

"What's wrong?" neva asked when she saw Eldar was upset.

"The car's flat. You just wait here, okay? I'll replace it."

"El, it's raining heavily. You'll be sick." I don't know why Neva is worried.

"The rain may be long enough to stop. You'll be late for home. I'll just change it. Behind there's an umbrella." Eldar headed to the back seat and grabbed the umbrella from the trunk of the car. He then went down through the back door and opened the trunk to lower the hook where the spare tire was. Neva, seeing Eldar in distress, immediately went down and grabbed the umbrella from Eldar's hand.

"Later you get wet, Va." said Eldar feeling bad.

"So you're faster instead."

Eldar also gave up. He started to change the flat tire.

Rain and wind were increasingly hitting the area. Neva started shivering. He himself saw that Eldar was also wet.

"Finally it's done" Eldar said and then put the flat tire into the trunk of his car. He used rain water to wash his hands.

The wind was blowing very hard. Neva could not hold the umbrella she was holding so the umbrella flew away.

"Yes, El....!" Neva was about to chase the umbrella but Eldar held his hand. Lightning and thunder and mutual speech made Eldar pull Neva's hand to get into the car immediately. However, instead of sitting in the front seat, the two went into the back seat.

"Duh...cold.." lamented Neva while hugging herself.

Eldar was trying to find something in the backseat. He often brought a change of clothes and he found a shirt.

"Eva, take off your shirt and put this on. You will be sick." said Eldar.

"How are you?" ask Neva. He also saw that Eldar was shivering.

"I'm boys. So my body temperature is hotter." Eldar immediately turned his back to Neva. He also opened his shirt that was very wet and put on the shirt Eldar gave him. But even though the shirt has been replaced, but his wet underwear still makes Neva still cold. Moreover, her skirt was also wet.

"It's still cold?" ask Eldar.

"Yes. I'm soaking wet 'cause the umbrella's flying."

Eldar grabbed the tissue and handed it to Neva. "Clean your wet face."

Eldar himself opened the t-shirt he was wearing. Neva immediately turned her face to look at Eldar's burly body. It seems Eldar has changed a lot. He is more muscular now. Neva was trying to get rid of all the strange feelings that were running all over her skin. Her memory returns when she and Eldar have intercourse for the first time. It also happens during heavy rain.

Neva hugged herself tighter and tighter as the cold started to make her tremble.

"I'm sorry!" Eldar unexpectedly instantly pulled Neva into his arms. Neva refused, but the warmth she felt overcame her rejection. Neva closed her eyes, as her face touched the chest of the warm field Eldar. Unknowingly Neva's hand was coiled on Eldar's burly back.

Something Neva really misses all this time. A hug that gives him physical warmth as well as inner calm.

A hug he never got from Genald.

Neva felt Eldar's hand rub his back. Neva can't afford to lie to her. What Eldar was doing right now was soothing to his heart. A little while the two hugged each other until Neva finally realized and tried to escape.

"El, we can't believe this." Neva. Their gazes met and no matter who started, their lips fused together in a warm kiss that shared a taste.

Neva was an ordinary woman who never felt a warm caress every time Genald touched her. Her husband never even kissed Neva's lips.

Something hot happened in that car. There was no more control as Eldar gently lifted Neva's body to sit in her lap. Indeed, Eldar could no longer control himself. In that second, Eldar realized that he still loved Neva like 5 years ago.

Genald looked at the woman who was sleeping next to him. He is Silva. His ex-girlfriend was in college. Silva is the woman who took Genald's virginity. When they met at the hotel, the two seemed to not want to leave again.

Silva has a business in Jakarta, and here they are, matching in Silva's apartment.

Deep down in Genald's heart, he praised Neva's personality. Since she was in High School, she has admired the beauty of Neva and her gentle personality. Genald knew that Neva would be the ideal wife.

However, because his parents praised Neva so much and always compared Neva to Genald's girlfriends, the man became upset. Especially when he found out that Neva was no longer a virgin. He hated not being the first man for Neva. On the matter Neva is the first girl to make him fall in love.

The Genald phone sounded. He saw that it was a call from his father. Surely his papa will ask if Genald is already in the apartment or not.

"Hallo, pa."

"Where are you? Why are you calling Neva and you not in the apartment yet? Didn't your plane arrive three hours ago? Where have you been?"

"Genald only met a few friends, pa. It's also over to the apartment."

"Yes already."

Genald was wearing his clothes again. Back to meet Silva, Genald no longer needed to spend money to hire women who were satisfied with his thirst as a man.

He kissed Silva on the forehead and woke the woman up.

"Honey, you're leaving?" silva asked in a voice that still sounded sleepy.

"Yes. Papa called. My wife's reporting because I'm not in the apartment yet."

"Go away. Maybe your wife misses you too."

Genald just laughed. This is what he likes about Silva. Unhappy and very understanding. He immediately left Silva's room and called an online taxi.

As soon as he arrives at the apartment, he sees Neva while preparing dinner.

"Have you arrived yet, sir?"

Genald approaching. He held Neva's arm violently. "You deliberately reported to papa huh?"

"Papa the phone asked you, mas. I can't lie to you."

"That's your excuse!" Genald pushed Neva's body hard. He stared at the food Neva was serving on the table. Neva is very good at cooking. Genald loved Neva's cooking even though he never admitted it.

"Make me coffee" said Genald, pulling up a chair and sitting at the table.

Neva blames the coffee machine. He then served coffee near Genald. After that Neva sat in front of Genald. Both of them eat in silence.

"Call papa and say I've arrived, eat dinner with you." said Genald after finishing eating. He then headed to the second floor to take a shower.

Neva called her in-laws. After that he cleaned the dining table and washed the tableware they used.

"Darling, where's your ring?" kintan asked as they had dinner together at Eldar's parents' house.

"Oh, I opened it. Forgetting to wear it again. It's in my apartment. The ring will be loose." Eldar was looking for an excuse because he did not know where the ring was. As he recalled, on the night of the engagement, he opened the ring and kept it in his jacket pocket just before he knocked on Neva's apartment door.

"Cock can be loose anyway? Is it because your weight is falling? Mami saw that you were thin." said Elif. Gina nodded. He also agreed with his mother. Eldar looks a bit skinny.

"Maybe you're too tired, El." said Kintan then rubbed Eldar's hand.

"Many projects I have to work on. I was thinking about postponing our marriage, Ki" said Eldar made Kintan face immediately panicked.

"Cock on the snooze anyway? I don't want to, ah." Kintan immediately cleaned his mouth with the tissue that was there then he immediately left the dining table.

"Eldar, how do you say that anyway?" Elif doesn't seem to like it.

"I'm telling you the truth, mi. I just won a big project."

"You're just like your papi. Always put importance on work. Remember, how old are you now?"

Eldar left the dining table and went after Kintan who appeared to be crying on the back porch.

"Ki.....!" Eldar touched Kintan's shoulder.

"I don't want to until our marriage is off, El. I love you so much." Kintan immediately hugged Eldar.

Eldar. He was imagining the Neva at this moment. What did Neva do? Did her husband hurt her or not? Really, Eldar couldn't if he didn't care about his ex.

What do you think....

What happened between Eldar and Neva was a mistake?
