Love of the Past

Finally Divorced

"Mba Neva? How come it's here?" kintan asked to see Neva coming out.

"My unit is right up ahead. Last time Eldar and I met by accident and we talked about the dress at that time. Mr. Eldar said that he did not like the concept that I offered at that time. So we discussed together." Neva said as calmly as possible while trying to smile.

"Honey, it turns out you've been secretly talking about the concept of our marriage? Didn't mother Elif say our marriage was after Gina's wedding?" Kintan immediately struggled spoiled on Eldar's arm. The guy just fell silent while staring at Neva a sign of dislike.

"Darling, why are you so quiet?" ask Kintan a little sulking.

"Maybe Mr. Eldar is upset that his suprise is not so" said Rangga made Kintan hold Eldar's cheek with anxiety.

"Darling..., I didn't think you wanted to surprise everyone."

"I'm sorry .." Neva went and left them. He entered his unit while praying that Kintan could understand his lie.

Meanwhile in Eldar's apartment, Kintan entered while staring at the entire room.

"Darling, how do you live here anyway? Stay alone with Rangga again." said Kintan as he continued to look around.

"This apartment is closer to my office. Also I have a lot of work to do with Rangga so I invite Rangga to stay here." Eldar said as he continued to look at Rangga. He was confused how Kintan could now be here on that thing Eldar had told Rangga that he was with Neva.

"But the apartment that used to be better, El." said Kintan. He sat next to his fiancee. Rangga is no longer visible.

"I feel more comfortable here."

Kintan sat sideways so he could look at Eldar's face. "Honey, how can your unit deal with the mba Neva unit?"

"I'm surprised too. I don't know if it's a coincidence."

"Have you met her husband?"

"Yes. We've met a few times."

"His husband is handsome?"

"Yes." replied Eldar although his heart was not willing to say that Genald was handsome because the man's behavior did not match his handsome face.

"El, how's our wedding?" ask Kintan.

"And I told you, if I'm not busy then the date will be set."

"Certainly why did you talk about the concept of the event with mba Neva?" ask Kintan.

"It just so happened to meet and I remember the concept he had offered" said Eldar trying to calm down even though he knew that Kintan's eyes showed that he seemed hesitant with Eldar's explanation.

He looked at Eldar. "Darling, you're not lying, are you?"

"What do you mean, Ki?"

"You didn't' cancel our show, did you?"

"Kok slamming anyway? If I cancel my stay on Neva's phone without meeting her."

Kintan hugged Eldar. "I'm afraid we're not getting married, El. I'm afraid of losing you. I feel a lot has changed with you. We haven't even seen each other lately."

"You know I'm busy with my job." Eldar was patient. He really wants to know how Kintan got in here.

"Darling, I sleep here huh?" ask the spoiled Kintan. He hugged Eldar.

"No way, Ki. There is a Rangga."

"The room has two. Don't you want to miss me?"

"Not good with Rangga, Ki. Rangga's parents also come here often."

"Is this your apartment or Rangga anyway?" Kintan looks annoyed.

"I'll take you home?" eldar said to divert the conversation.

"You're kicking me out, honey?"

"No. There's work I need to finish with Rangga tonight."

Kintan stood up in annoyance. "El, I feel like there's something weird about you."

"Ki, please understand. I have a lot of work."

"I've always understood you, El. But I also need attention, need to be loved. We never go out and eat out again. All your time you've devoted to the job and it happens when we're engaged."

Eldar just rubbed Kintan's head gently. "Go now?"

"No need! I brought my own car. Anyway, tomorrow we have lunch together" said Kintan firmly. He then kissed Eldar's lips briefly and immediately left. As he was already outside, his eyes immediately stared at the door belonging to the Neva unit. Who are you, Neva? I can see how different Eldar's eyes look at you.

"Sorry, sir. Just as I got out of the car, Miss Kintan was waiting for me in the parking lot. He immediately said that he wanted to see you. I can't dodge because your car is near my car. I tried to send a message to you but you didn't read the message I sent."

Eldar snorted in annoyance. "How did Kintan know that I live here?"

"Because he's been following master these few days. Looks like Miss Kintan is suspecting something, sir."

Eldar rubbed his face violently. "I must immediately end my relationship with Kintan."

"Sir, have you thought carefully?" ask Rangga.

"Yes. I'll talk to him after we get back from the Philippines."

*********

Neva was surprised to see Kintan who came to see him today.

"Miss Kintan, let's go in."

Kintan smiles. "Call Kintan, mba."

"Call me also with Neva without any frills mba."

Kintan smiles. He stepped into Neva's room. His eyes immediately fell on the photo on the table Neva.

"His husband?"

Neva nodded. Although he and Genald are in the process of divorce, but the photo has not been removed from his room.

"handsome huh? I seem to have seen it. But where is it?" Kintan re-examines the wedding photos of Neva and Genald.

"Jeez, this is Genald, right? Arya's son?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"It's a different photo here." Kintan is quite surprised to find out who Neva's husband is.

"What does Kintan need to do here?" tanya Neva switched the conversation.

Kintan who was sitting in front of Neva looked sad.

"Is there any connection to your marriage?" neva asked, trying to guess.

"Yes. Two days ago, when we met at Eldar's apartment, was it true that you were talking about the concept of marriage?"

"Yes. Why?"

Kintan took a deep breath. "I feel like there's something different about Eldar. It seems like there is another girl that makes Eldar confused to marry me." Kintan started crying.

"Patience, Ki. It might be true that Mr. Eldar is busy."

Kintan looked at Neva. "I don't know who to confide in, Nev. That's why I came here. Maybe you can help me convince Eldar not to cancel our marriage. You see.., you see, I have given my chastity to Eldar. We slept together often. I won't let Eldar let me go. It is true that there are men who can accept a woman as she is. But what if after Eldar threw me away and I met a man who could not accept me at all? Wouldn't that be a thorn in my marriage?"

Neva's heart ached hearing Kintan's confession. So Eldar and Kintan are sleeping together? Wouldn't if Eldar canceled his marriage to Kintan then Kintan's fate would be the same as mine? Can't you accept me who's not a virgin?

"Neva, did you hear what I said?" asked Kintan when he saw Neva seemed to daydream.

"Yes. I-i heard. I will try to convince Mr. Eldar to marry you, Ki. I understand your fear."

Kintan wiped his tears. "Thank you, Neva. I feel like I have a friend who can understand me."

Neva's heart rippled as she heard what Kintan said. God, what if Kintan knew that Eldar and I had memories of our past?

*********

A week has passed.....

The judge finally granted Neva's request for divorce from Genald. At the insistence of Madame Tirta, Genald also dropped talak 3 to Neva.

Relieved. That's what Neva felt even though the status of the widow was very uncluttered for her to dress.

Eldar, who had just returned from the Philippines, was delighted to hear that Neva had divorced Genald.

Ki, we'll see you tomorrow? There's something I want to talk to you about.

Eldar sent a message to Kintan. It's time he'll cut his ties with Kintan because Eldar now wants to get Neva back.

Can Kintan take it ??
