Something has changed since Dimitri and Lilliana's talks the other day. Dimitri was increasingly concerned about Liliana, although it was not too influential but Dimitri tried. Liliana's feelings still felt doubt towards Dimitri, but the man kept trying hard. Their communication was quite smooth, even though Liliana only returned the potluck. Dimitri felt like he was going back to their first meeting, when they had not known each other.
“So now you are playing ‘pulling the feeling of Dimitri’?” asked Nabila when Liliana visited him.
Liliana laughs. He does not feel like that, his feelings are still vacillating. It's not that easy to restore the situation as it used to be. If this wasn't about her heart, then Liliana wouldn't be like this.
“You think so? I just..I can't accept, and can't refuse it either.” Liliana shrugged her shoulders indifferently, she had no intention of playing with Dimitri's feelings. Maybe just a little testing it.
“I won't beat you up, it's hard to get things back the way they were before, right?”
Liliana did not answer, she just looked at Aidan—bayi Nabila— who was asleep in the crib. “I've faced my fears, Bill. I don't expect anything more from Dimitri, maybe just let time answer everything.”
“What about other men? Maybe if he finds out you have a girlfriend, he'll back off.”
Liliana looked at Nabila. He never thought of another man but Dimitri, not even a god. Reportedly God has been betrothed to another girl by his parents. Liliana should be grateful for that one, God is too good for her and she deserves the best girl of origin instead of Liliana.
“You have no other advice than to find another guy? I was too fed up with guys, and yes, enough Dimitri aja,” Liliana said tiredly.
He was really tempted by the idea of celibacy, but he knew his parents couldn't allow him to do that. Which parent wants his daughter to be celibate?
“I know the feeling of not being forced, Li, but with you like this, it's just hurting yourself more. You've met Dimitri, you know what he's up against and you choose to avoid him, and now you're back to hanging on to that guy's feelings. Are you tired of all this?”
“What do you think with love an opportunity for Dimitri, can help me to change my feelings?”
Nabila looked at her best friend lovingly. It was easy for him to say advice and also advice, but he knew it was not easy for Liliana to do so. Nabila knew how much Liliana loved Dimitri, even now she could still see that feeling.
“Do your best for your heart, but please do not drag on to torture yourself.” Nabila stroked the top of Liliana's head. Nabila has always played the role of a sister to Liliana, and now she still does. He knew Liliana had a very soft heart, seeing her tormented all this time made him unwilling. Why would he hurt himself if he had to choose? But he knows, not all choices can be the best for us.
While we can sometimes sacrifice something for something else, it never does the same for anyone else. It could be that the thing that is sacrificed is actually increasingly hurting someone. It's all a matter of time, time can heal everything, and it can't happen in a short time. Sometimes it can be years, sometimes just minutes.
If you feel that time cannot heal you, maybe you should open your heart more. Don't let your heart get stuck in a black hole the past hurts, never let the past hold you back.

It has been a month since Liliana and Dimitri's relationship improved. Improving in the sense of Dimitri who tried hard to do that. Not that Liliana rejected all of that, she simply could not make a choice on her feelings for Dimitri. He accepted it, there was no reason to refuse it. The love is still there
his heart, though he tried to deny it.
“Log in,” said Liliana when she heard the knock on the door in her room.
“Mbak, there is Mr. Dimitri outside,” Ayu said from the door.
Liliana looked at her phone, and saw that it was already lunchtime. They often had lunch together and Dimitri was the one who always picked up Liliana even though the distance of his office was quite far.
“Tell in, Yu.”
Ayu then closed the door, and soon Dimitri appeared with a paper bag bearing the name of one of the restaurants.
“I'm not bothering, am I? It's lunchtime because,” said Dimitri with a big smile.
Liliana only smiled faintly, she always did not know what to behave when facing Dimitri. He's not used to Dimitri like this.
“I didn't even know it was lunchtime.” Liliana went to the sofa which was also occupied by Dimitri.
His heart always warms if he remembers all the sweet treatment that Dimitri gave, so he wants to try to make his heart more open and able to accept this man back.
“You seem to have to start reducing your work, you always work hard since long ago when you can relax a little,” said Dimitri who started preparing the food he brought.
“I didn't know you could be like this, I'm not used to Dimitri now.”
Dimitri just smiled obliquely, he also did not know that love could change his nature to be like this. Love is terrible in a good sense.
“Then get used to it, I will surprise you even more.” Dimitri blinked one eye at Liliana before eating the lunch she brought.
Liliana just smiled. He believed Dimitri was able to melt his heart, since the man had always managed to tear down Liliana's defenses. No matter what, the man always succeeds. Maybe in some time Liliana was able to open her heart back completely.

“Kevin?” Liliana greeted a man who was clearly visible from her back that it was Kevin. The man was sitting on the sofa in the lobby. It seems Dimitri never said that Kevin would pick her up, the man was even on his way to pick her up.
“Kak Lili,” said Kevin who sounded awkward. The man immediately stood up from his seat when he heard Liliana call out to him.
Liliana looked at Kevin full of probing. It seems like this guy's business isn't with him, but it looks weird to see Kevin in his office with his awkward circumstances like that.
“Who are you waiting for?” ask Liliana again.
Kevin scratched his nape which certainly did not fail. This was the first time again after such a long time, Liliana saw an awkward Kevin like this. Does Kevin secretly have a woman he likes in his office? Why doesn't Liliana even know?
“Well, I hope you're not angry if I say this, but I'll wait.
Liliana looked back when she heard the sound of the knocking of heels approaching towards them. “Ayu?”
Liliana closed her mouth in disbelief. How could his secretary have an unknown relationship with his best friend?
“Mbak Lili,” Ayu also looks equally surprised. When he came down earlier, he thought his boss had gone home first. But who would have thought that they would actually meet under these circumstances.
“Nggak.”
“Iya.”
Liliana laughed again at the uncompensated answer. Ayu answered no, and Kevin said yes. Why does it feel like he caught his little sister secretly dating.
“Since when?”
“Mbak Lili, this is not what you think. Me and Mr Kevin—“
“I don't mind the same thing, Yu, I just don't think that you guys have a relationship and I'm not aware of all that,” Liliana. He knew the secretary's worries.
Ayu is his secretary, but if he really likes Kevin, what's wrong with that? Isn't that just a good thing?
“Kakak not angry?” ask Kevin.
“And why should I be angry? As long as you don't hurt Ayu and make Ayu's work fall apart, I'm fine with all that.” Liliana smilingly looked at Kevin and also Ayu.
“Mbak Lilies..,”
“I want to change my mind, Yu?”
Ayu simply shook her head where she stood. “Then go home. And Kevin, make sure you don't hurt Ayu or I'll really kill you!”
Kevin showed both his thumbs. “Sister can hold my words. We go first.”
Afterwards, Kevin took Ayu's hand and took her away. Liliana smiled at the departure of her best friend and secretary. He really did not expect that something like this would happen. Kevin has always liked her a long time ago, although she is also a female player as well. This was the first time he had seen Kevin holding a woman with such possessiveness.
He doesn't know how long they've been in touch, but he's really happy with what's going on. Kevin and Ayu are a unique blend, maybe they will complement each other, hopefully Kevin is able to keep his secretary well.

“Why are you smiling from earlier?” dimitri asked in surprise. They were in the car to Liliana's apartment after dinner.
“You know that Kevin is dating my secretary?”
“Know, I helped Kevin. You don't know?”
Liliana suddenly looked at Dimitri in shock. “You know and don't tell me?”
“I think Ayu told you the same story. Kevin's a little scared that until you know this, that's why I didn't tell you.”
Liliana was still staring at Dimitri, she was already sitting sideways because of Dimitri's sentence earlier. He is happy and surprised, they are a sweet couple and Liliana is also happy because of it. There was actually nothing else he was worried about other than Kevin that would hurt Ayu. For the rest, he will always pray for the two new couples.
“Tell Kevin to take good care of Ayu, or I will kill him.”
The car stopped slowly. “It has arrived,” Dimitri said with a smile looking at Liliana who was still staring at him.
Liliana immediately confirmed her seat, although the light in the car was quite dark, only with the help of street lights that were not very helpful. He could clearly see Dimitri's smile, which inexplicably made his chest pound.
“A—aku out first.”
Dimitri immediately caught Liliana's hand which would open the car door. Fortunately, this dim light helped her to cover her reddened face.
“I. I still want to be with you.”
Liliana did not look at Dimitri, she just sat back quietly in her chair with her hands still in Dimitri's grasp. They just sat in the car without talking. Although the atmosphere was very awkward between them, they still enjoyed it well, Dimitri's grip also tightened
the Lemari Liliana.
“You.”
“Al.”
The two of them laughed at the ridiculousness they had just done. “Why are we so silly?” liliana geli said.
“You want to stop by maybe? Than we are in a car like gini, this is also only seven hours,” Liliana said again. The thought had just popped into his head, and this was the first time that Dimitri would often drive him home.
It's a little risky to invite a man into his apartment, although in the past they've done more than they do today. But still it would be very strange. No one knows what will happen inside the apartment, inviting Dimitri to her apartment means Liliana is ready to open her heart to the man.
It might sound exaggerated, just visiting as a guest, why think that far? Especially now that it is very common for young women who live in the capital. Think positively, why think negative?
“I want to do that, but now is not the right time. I'm not sure what to do in there.”
“Yeah, the old Dimitri is back.” Liliana smiled for something that made her heart pound even more.
“You seem to miss Dimitri that much.”
“Please just like that.” Liliana shrugged her shoulders indifferently without looking at Dimitri.
Dimitri pulled their fingers gently, making Liliana instantly stare at Dimitri. They looked back at me at a very close distance. Liliana's heart was racing faster. Liliana closed her eyes as Dimitri brought her face closer, and she kissed Liliana's old forehead, as if to channel her feelings through the kiss.
“I'll make sure your heart is open only to me. When that time comes, I will make you fall in love many times with me, and you are only able to see me.”
Dimitri looked into Liliana's eyes with earnestness in his eyes. He was determined to make amends for his mistakes and make sure his woman would only fall in love with him. Maybe a little selfish, but he has missed a lot because of his mistakes. This time he won't repeat that stupid mistake and make sure this woman is just by his side.
