My husband, Too Handsome

Chapter 26 (Love)

Vera comments on the big smile when the dinner dishes have been neatly arranged her dining table bag. Vera glanced at the slick circular watch on her right wrist. Time has shown six o'clock past thirty minutes. That means in ten minutes Leo will be home.

"Mrs Vera! Is there anything we should help you with?" ask the head maid.

Vera looked back at the three maids that Leo had assigned to take care of their new home. Given the large house they now occupy will make this one woman difficult.

"No one, you can rest!" vera said softly.

"Good, madam!" answer them simultaneously.

He immediately stepped to the back. Rest in a special place ranging from helpers, gardeners and also security.

Vera pulls slowly the tabletop dining bench. Sit with your hands playing on the phone screen. Long enough this woman waited for the arrival of her husband. Unfortunately, the dashing man had still not arrived.

Ting!

WhatsApp messages make the phone vibrate. Vera frowned seeing the husband's name on the screen. Vera's fingers moved agilely, opening a WhatsApp message from Leo.

Husband

Sorry, there was a sudden meeting with a client tonight. You eat first, and don't wait for me to come home. Go to sleep first.

Vera exhaled slowly. Before looking at the food on the table. The food he made was too much for himself. There's no way he could eat all of it. Want to be stored and panasipun for tomorrow morning, very unlikely. Because Leo does not like cooking. He said it was unhealthy.

"Well! Eat it yourself," monologue Vera slowly. Before his fingers moved to reply to Leo's message.

Alright. Don't forget to have a good dinner. And be careful on the road

That was the answer from Vera. Before this woman put her cell phone on the table. Spoon some rice coats onto the plate along with the side dish.

In another place at the same time. Leo received the message Vera sent. This man reviewed a smile, before storing the thin rectangular object into his suit pocket.

"Who?" the gentle cry in front of him made Leo raise his gaze.

The beautiful girl smiled gently. Nothing changes from a Lili Lorenza. She still looks so pretty, like a teenager. The proportional slim body, a beautiful face with a smile as sweet as honey, do not forget the dimples on one of his cheeks are stunning. Physically, Lili is perfect. Matterally, this girl was not from a wealthy family like her. But in terms of brains, Lili is not a beautiful woman with an empty brain. This girl has a smart brain. Completed with kindness. That makes the kids on campus call her Dewi.

"My wife," replied Leo with a heavy hoarse tone typical of his.

The smile reviewed by Lili was broken just like that.

"Why get married but don't you tell me?" asked Lili in a sad tone.

"Sorry," replied Leo, "my wife doesn't like the spotlight. He is a more closed person. Yeah, even though a lot of people now know about my status," Leo continued. Before a small chuckle.

Lili's heart throbbed bitterly. Heard what he thought was very painful. He and this man are lovers. Although Leo Yamato will use the word first. Then another for Lili. She is still Leo's lover. No words broke from each other's lips. That's what Lili had in mind.

"Why should you marry her?" lili said with a tone unable to describe her bitterness.

"Eh?" Leo choked, "why are you asking me that?"

Leo sighed. This beautiful girl is right. But for Leo when Lili stepped on Soekarno-Hatta International Airport. That's when their relationship ended. Leo is not a man who likes to have long-distance relationships. Remembering your heart will keep changing. Leo did not know how Lili's behavior and heart to him when they separated from the country.

And vice versa. Rather than inviting suspicion and hurting each other, Leo chose to end. No, Leo Yamato is a man who can't be loyal. This man is afraid to play on the heart. He's afraid of getting hurt. Don't think, forgetting Lili is easy. Unfortunately, Lili will never understand Leo's mindset.

"It's over, Lili. Wasn't that moment I said. If you leave, then our feelings will be over. Then, didn't you choose to leave too without any consideration for our relationship?"

"I thought you weren't serious at the time, Leo!" refute Lili.

Leo grunted softly."On the other hand, I'm not serious. I was even willing to marry you back then. I can't have a relationship that doesn't have a definite status. You go, your heart may change" said Leo slowly.

To Lili's two teary eyes. Leo groaned slowly. Before standing from his sitting position.

"Sorry, I think we met here talking about your advertising contract with my company. To talk about the story that has ended. I think you're wrong, and I feel guilty. Delivering my wife, for dinner at the moment. I'll go first!" Leo said before stepping his feet leaving the VIP room of the restaurant.

Lili's sobs sounded faint. His two palms covered her pretty face.

Srak!

Risa stepped in a hurry. Approaching the crying Lili. Risa's palm rubbed gently on Lili's trembling back.

"It was Lilie. Leo no longer has feelings for you. Forget about him!" Said Risa in between her gentle strokes. Lili's head was faintly groaning. This woman can't take Leo off. The man he loved so much.

...***...

Clink spoon and fork clashing. They both eat with service. Leo occasionally glanced at the wife who was eating in silence.

"Sorry about last night, baby!" leo opened the conversation.

Vera stopped the movement of her hand. Looking at Leo's handsome face was slow.

"It's okay. Just love the food" replied Vera soberly.

Leo smelled a smile. Before pulling Vera's hand. Swiping the back of his hand slowly.

"Tomorrow no show?"

"Tomorrow, there really is no show. Only, the plan wants a small thanksgiving to celebrate moving house. Why is it brother?" ask Vera back.

Leo let out a small sigh."Go to Scout Island. We'll spend one night there."

Vera nodded in understanding."How else. My friends want to see this house."

"Yes, that's it. We invite my friends also to be merry" suggested Leo excitedly.

Vera nodded in agreement to Leo's proposal. This one face does not escape from his flat face. Either because it is still upset with the husband's lack of return at dinner. Don't know what.

Leo slowly kissed the back of Vera's palm with a silly smile.
