For those of you who trapped Dimitri in the previous part, maybe you hated Dimitri too much, or you were Dimitri's cousin;)


 


Liliana turned her head to hear the call in the crowd, and found Katherine who was walking closer to the two.


“It's time to deliver your welcome,” said Katherine. He patted Enzo on the shoulder like nothing had happened.


“Make sure you are always next to Liliana, you are in charge of her tonight,” Enzo said before leaving.


Katherine simply sneered at her cousin's words. “He sucks, right? Is this suit his too? That guy really is! Does he not know fashion at all.”


Liliana simply smiled at Katherine who was nagging her cousin who was now on stage. There was only a long-sleeved white shirt and black vest, but he was still handsome. Does Liliana look like a woman who cheated on her husband? Because it is a reality that must be faced.


He looked at Enzo who was giving a speech with a bitter smile, he was not in love with Enzo, it would not be that easy to fall in love again after all the things that happened. There was no solution he could find for all of this, his life seemed to be bound by invisible shackles. He wanted to go further, but there were people holding him back, which is why they were rediscovered at this time. There is something unfinished between them.


“... yes, right?”


Liliana turned her head, as if she had heard Katherine ask something. “You said something?”


“It looks like you really want to go home, huh? You're not focused anymore,” said Katherine.


“No, just..”


“After Enzo's welcome we will go home, I also can't linger here, I am a very responsible person, no need to worry too much.”


Liliana just said yes, her mind is indeed full of many things, and there is not a single way out that she can find. His brain suddenly blunted when he thought of a new problem, when could all this end?


Liliana's daydreams were again piqued with a standing ovation from guests as Enzo finished his speech, Liliana sure it was a cool welcome as it was all in German. He didn't want to know what it was, because it had nothing to do with him.


“It looks like we're going home,” said Katherine when Enzo came back to them.


“You have to stay, what about Uncle and Aunt?”


“I've spoken to them, nothing serious. Besides I promised Liliana to take her home.”


Enzo watched Liliana for a moment. “I'll deliver until front.”


The three walked towards the front door, occasionally stopping to greet the guests known as Enzo, until their steps stopped when they almost reached the door. Not only Liliana and Enzo, Katherine did the same. Did they also get an invitation to attend this party? Richard


and Dimitri's.


“Oh, hi Liliana, did not expect us to meet here.” Richard was the first to dilute the awkward atmosphere between them. He walked over to Liliana, then extended his hand.


“Yes, a coincidence that was never expected,” said Liliana.he received a helping hand from Richard in front of him.


“Wait, you guys know each other?” ask Katherine curiously. He was very surprised by the unusual interaction, and also the language used, Katherine was also quite familiar with the language.


All eyes were staring at Katherine at this moment with no less curiosity. Richard knew, he even remembered so much about the woman next to Liliana, how it was when the woman suddenly left him at the hotel without any message, then all the insults—according to him—that he received that night. Richard remembered all of those things


without a single miss.


“I almost married her first,” replied Richard. “So you can say this woman is my ex-lover.” Richard answered all of that with German already better than that night. All the keys are just learning, and all the things we can learn easily.


“Ah, he is a friend from Indonesia, you also know?” ask Liliana.


“Ya.”


“No.”


Katherine and Richard spoke the answer simultaneously, and the others now looked at them strangely. Liliana even forgot the question of why this man could be here, although the answer was clear, Dimitri was here and they were friends. It was all clear enough to get an answer.


“You want to be here longer, Kate?” ask Enzo.


“Well, you're right, we have to go home, Liliana.” Katherine still looks nervous because of her unexpected encounter. He'll thank Enzo next time for saving him.


“You want to go home, Li?” ask Richard.


“Yes, I have to go home..,”


Liliana's words like she still had a continuation, she stared at Dimitri from the tail of her eyes that were still standing in place since then. Liliana did not intend to say hello or throw a smile, what was all that for when her heart was still in a state of turmoil.


Liliana wanted to take off the suit she was wearing, but Enzo who was behind her held back the hand movement. “I'll stop by later when the event is over to pick up this suit,” Enzo said.


Small movements and sentences Enzo can not be separated from the view of the three people who also stood there. Maybe Enzo did it on purpose because Dimitri was standing there, or Enzo wanted to do it. I don't know, whatever it is, Dimitri doesn't like it very much.

After taking Liliana home, Katherine did not return to her apartment. The meeting was with the man who he had just met a few days ago as well, and he just left early that morning was named Richard and also came from Indonesia. It happened to be quite strange actually, and more strange because Katherine actually met the man.


It would have been better if he had closed out tonight with a little sip of a drink at the club, a little dance, and maybe a guy again. After meeting his father earlier, he had already felt the stress that plagued his soul. As usual, there will be a date back arranged by his father and a request to return to Berlin and start taking care of the company.


Just be right! There's still Enzo, why him?


make it special for him. He does not want to think about tomorrow, company, or another date, he will only be happy as usual for tonight, then if possible, for the following nights as well.


After finishing one song, Katherine returned to her seat for the cocktail that had been waiting. Actually


there was something empty in his heart after doing all this, but he still did as if he had no problem with all this, he had yet to find something capable of touching his deepest heart.


“You can become a professional dancer after this.”


Katherine almost fell down from the chair hearing the voice next to her, she turned her head, and sure enough, the man she had been thinking about since was looking at her with a smile. “B—How can you be here?”


“This is a public place, it's only natural that I'm here.” Richard still held on to his position staring at Katherine with a smile. Who would have thought that they would meet again by accident?


“You really like nightclubs?” ask Richard.


“Are you teasing me?”


Richard laughed at the question instead of the answer, he felt that this woman was quite funny. But, why could he after this, he never felt this good when dealing with foreign women.


“Last time, you teased me, so let's switch roles. Are you drunk enough? I can take you home or maybe stay at my hotel again.”


Katherine simply gave her slanted smile. He's never been attracted to a guy like Richard, there's no challenge in it. Do they have to go back to the hotel, create a hot moment in one night? There's nothing fun in such a pattern, Katherine wouldn't take long to get a guy like this either.


“I don't want to play, go,” kick Katherine out.


A Richard was rejected, how many times is this? Because the last time Liliana refused, even this woman was no better than him, but with this simple Richard was rejected again. Just be right!


If a woman had rejected him, then Richard had never gone further, he actually wanted to flirt further, but this woman seemed to be not wanting to be disturbed. The goal is also to have fun here, if this woman is facing a serious situation as well, it is better to avoid it.


“This is my business card, you can call him anytime,” Richard said. He stood up from his seat and handed the business card in front of Katherine.


After feeling the emptiness next to her, Katherine glanced over to find the empty space. Was it too cold? Why didn't the man have the slightest effort to win her heart? No need to overdo it, just a little.


Katherine kept taking out the business card that the man had put on the table. Later if he was really curious about this man, he would call him.

Liliana comes face to face with Dimitri, she has no power to take everything by herself. There is no topic that Liliana is prepared to face the ex-husband, who unfortunately has not become an ex. Why do they still have an unknown relationship after a year?


“Why did you admit that?” ask Liliana. There were no Eagles among them, for this was not about the Eagles.


Dimitri had expected questions like these to come out of Liliana's mouth, she was nervous, but not so nervous as to answer the wife's interrogation this afternoon.


“I don't want that divorce, I still love you even today, I—“


“But you asked that from the beginning, what do you want exactly?”


How say? That love was still in Liliana's heart, but it was wrapped in the wounds this man had made. Currently there is only a sense of disgust and also tired, there is no intention for Liliana to marry another man again, she is just tired of the drama that happened in her life, she said, he wants to live with his son until later.


“I know this is wrong, but I still hope to be back with you again. What happened first was a misunderstanding, and I will make up for all that,” Dimitri said. He's been saying a lot that he would do anything for Liliana, right? This time he was really determined.


Maybe it's true, if divorce isn't the only way to end it all, that's what Dimitri believes. What about Liliana? does he feel the same? They still love each other, time is also not that easy to erase their feelings just like that.


“What can change if we are together?” ask Liliana. His cold face had returned, meaning that there was nothing left.


Dimitri. In front of him, not Liliana who was full of smiles like yesterday they met, this woman was colder than he had expected. For this one, Dimitri did not expect, he thought it was better to express his feelings early so that everything was clear, then Liliana's relationship with the German man


not too far either.


“I think you've gone too far, Dimitri. Do you think you can control my feelings so easily? Although everything that happened was a misunderstanding, you are also guilty here.”


“I know, Li, and I regret it.


“You think a household is just a bitch to you? I've done all the work as a wife, I really tried to keep it from going goodbye, but in the end you asked for it, and then when I agreed to it, I agreed, you played me and my parents. You're too far, Dimitri!”


Luckily the diners of the restaurant were quiet, and they also fought using Indonesian, no one would understand even if they fought with sharp knives.


Dimitri was completely silent with Liliana's words, they stared at each other with their own feelings. Guilt and anger too. They struggle for a year with their own feelings, they stick with the thoughts and beliefs they believe in, expect the best, but this is the worst.


“I have not been able to dispel this selfish feeling, after seeing the Eagle, I have more and more confidence to ask you back. I just want to go back to you and the Eagle, and build a life with you again,” Dimitri said.


A single tear of Liliana fell on her cheek, completely painful when it came back to the pain that she thought was healed. “Why am I the only one who looks like an antagonist here? You planned all this?” liliana asked with tears stopped.


“Do you know how much pain I feel? Do you know how many things I went through alone to heal my wounds?” ask Liliana again.


Dimitri was completely silent with all his guilt, he looked at the teary face with an uncertain feeling. He doesn't know if he's hurt Liliana this deep.


“I'm sorry, Li.”


Liliana wiped away the tears on her cheeks violently. It became a umpteenth cry for her, and she had no problem, if she wanted to, Liliana wanted to let out all the pain in her heart for this man to know. Returning after all the pain that had not even been completely erased, could not be that easy. A broken heart, a betrayed trust, will not be that easy to restore it like all. It feels the same as when we try to put together a broken glass, it will never come back the same.


“Please, divorce me..,”
