Febri resigned, he was silent no longer rebellious. Enjoying the so soothing embrace of Arkan, Febri longs for this warm embrace. The man he loved from then until now. Although the feeling of hate is there, but still can not make Febri stop loving Arkan.
"I thought being married again would make me forget about you. The little girl who follows me everywhere I go. Turns out no, you're still in my heart even though I never told anyone."
"I feel guilty. Everything even felt heavier, when I was unable to give my heart to other women, I was also unable to meet the needs of his life. But I tried so hard to give my attention to my wife, but my wife chose to cheat and get pregnant with another man." Febri clutches his mouth in disbelief, so that's the cause of Arkan's divorce and also Al is not Arkan's biological child. There was a little bit of pity in Febri's heart. Febri turned to face Arkan. He hugged the man tightly, crying from thinking too much about Arkan even when he didn't know what was going on.
"sst" Arkan calmed Febri down, he stroked the woman's back. He should have cried why Febri was crying.
"I'm sorry" said Febri, full of regrets. He should have listened to Arkan first. He shouldn't have run away like this. He should not be selfish and think of himself.
"We don't have to apologize to each other, we forget everything that happened. We're both wrong. We're both being selfish feeling we're the one who's suffering and hurting the most here. We need each other. But our ego is too high to admit it." Arkan calms Febri. There's nothing wrong here. It's just a misunderstanding.
Febri nodded, his hand touching Arkan's back further tightening his embrace.
"Febri can I ask you one thing?" ask Arkan to ask Febri for one thing.
"What?" Febri asked confusedly. He looked at Arkan.
"Please love Al, as you love our son later," Arkan stroked Febri's stomach.
"You told me about your pregnancy, I'm happy because I have 2 kids now. Especially now that the woman I love is pregnant with my first child." Arkan could not hide his smile, he was very happy.
He already knew that if Febri was pregnant, Arkan was expecting it. You told him about his wife's pregnancy, the man was afraid that Arkan would hurt Febri. Though it never occurred in his mind to hurt his wife even though in fact Febri often hurt because of it.
"I just don't want Al to get hurt because of that woman. I consider him my own son. I just didn't want to see Al get hurt again, I found some bruises on his body. It's a pity for the boy." continued Arkan he didn't want Febri to misunderstand again.
Febri nods now he understands why Arkan loves the boy. Not because Arkan still loves his ex-wife but Al never got the affection he deserved from his mother, should he have a conscience, he should have guessed when Arkan's ex-wife entrusted Al to them for the sake of his career. A mother who gives her child to someone else. He did not expect that Al was the child of infidelity, the child knew nothing and Febri judged him as the destroyer of his household.
Febri felt guilty for hating the boy. The boy must have lived with pressure and tears plus his rejection yesterday. The boy must have thought he hated him. Febri cried, he hugged Arkan strongly.
He could not imagine if he was in the position of the child. Because he was a child always getting an abundance of affection from his parents.
"And one more dear, please keep it a secret to Al. If I wasn't his real father, I wouldn't want him hurt accepting that fact."
"He should?" ask Arkan to Febri while kissing Febri's stomach. He can't wait for his first child.
"Yes," Febri answered Arkan's question.
"Love you" said Arkan.
"Love you too." Febri replied happily. He realized that he only loved Arkan while You were only a temporary sense of awe. He feels guilty for using you all this time.
"Thank you for loving me..." Said Arkan sincerely. Then kiss the old Febri's forehead. He wanted to prove to Febri that he was the only one who deserved to be the husband of the girl. Just Arkan, not the others...
"Let's go home before that snot kid takes you back from me." Arkan deliberately did not close the door so that You see everything, he just wanted to tell the position of the little boy. He no longer wants to play with cats.
Febri fell silent, he forgot he was in your Villa. He got up and saw a man standing in the doorway staring at them with a forced smile. You saw everything he did with Arkan. He feels ashamed and guilty about you. He really has no intention to play you, even though he is aware of all the things he does hurt Your feelings. Febri cursed inwardly to avenge Arkan who did this deliberately. Can be seen from his increasingly widening grin on his handsome face.
"I'm sorry to bother you" said You with save his sorrow. He was happy and worried at once. He is happy that Febri gets his happiness even though in his little heart he is not willing. He still loves that girl. Love is hard. Moreover, a love that should not have a taste so suffocating.
"It's okay, thanks to you I can meet Febri again." Answer Arkan to your words.
"Thank you" Febri said with an apologetic smile. He felt guilty for the man before him. You're too good for him. Even willing to do anything for him. Though he continued to hurt the man with his lies and selfishness alone.
"May you be happy" you said, leaving the two men behind.
He could no longer bear this pain. It seemed like he had to completely forget about Febri and erase her from his memory. He can't love that girl anymore. He has no chance. For him it was enough to see Febri happy and smile back.
And when he heard Febri's reply saying that if he loved the man it was enough of a reason for You to go away from their lives.
"Goodbye" you said with a murmur. He had to give up his first love and find a new one.
