Unnerved, Axton's gaze was fixed on the gentle figure before him. His heart thump instantly stirred amazingly. Streams of various feelings continued to rustle within the chest. Once again, Naora's tears diverted her world.
"Naora ... Why are you crying?"
"Do you have to laugh after hearing your story, Axton? That's very sad. I can't believe you're going through something like that."
Tears flowed down the white cheeks of Naora. What's more, seeing Axton's calm expression when telling stories actually increases the throbbing in his heart. He knew very well that the man was harboring many wounds behind an attitude that seemed like nothing.
Axton was unmoved, but his mind was whispering.
I guess he's gonna smack me after knowing my past stories like people. Butwhy? What exactly is your heart made of, Naora?
Naora's sobs sounded heart-wrenching. The woman seemed to be able to feel what the little Axton had felt.
"Naora ...," said Axton.
Only that one word is still capable of being spoken. It was hard for him to trust for no reason. But that's the truth. The response Naora showed after hearing the story of her dark past turned out to be unexpected.
Why is he crying for me? Doesn't he hate me?
"How bad Axton was little at the time. At such a young age you have to experience things that adults may not necessarily be able to withstand. My heart hurts so much to hear your story, Axton."
"I'm okay," Axton returned.
"After all the bad things that have happened to you so far, why are you still acting like nothing happened?"
When should you feel pain alone? If given the chance, I would be willing to be your friend in times of sadness.
Naora squeezes the cloth on the chest. Throw away the tightness there. Indeed, he who became the other party only felt heartache because of the misfortune of her husband. His heart seemed to be overwhelmed by feelings of inadmissibility.
I really feel sorry for you, Axton. I'm angry because all the bad things happened to you.
Axton suddenly smiled bitterly. Feeling sad because he always put a strong and arrogant attitude just now looks sad in Naora's eyes. "In the end you pitied me. You don't have to do that because I don't need to." The man still shunned his feelings.
"You really need to be pitied right now. Is there something wrong with that? Will you feel low when I pity you? Believe me, Axton .. This pity of mine is one form of mindfulness, no one intends to demean."
Axton is back. Again the tip of his tongue felt heavy to say. He could not deny, that in one corner of his heart's deepest space indeed needed a concern. All this time, who would have thought that he actually felt lonely even in the crowd.
"That's enough, Naora. I don't like being in a pathetic position."
Puk!
The man was stunned followed by a quick catch as Naora threw the warm cardigan that had wrapped her body. The woman put up an upset face behind tears.
"You who tell stories and act like nothing makes me sad."
"Enough, Naora." Axton's stance began to falter.
"I feel sorry for you who can't shed a single tear despite being in a very painful situation." As if reluctant to hear Axton's words, Naora continues to vent all her heart.
Axton threw his face in any direction, not wanting the woman to be aware of the change in gurats that implied meaning there. "I. .. couldn't cry" said Axton.
He continued to fight his feelings even though his pair of eyes were hot and reddened. Even the wind within the chest increasingly refuted. The pain that had been buried deep seemed angry.
"Why don't you cry for yourself? Why don't you get angry for yourself?" It was not a story that could be said with such calm facial expressions. Cry, Axton. You should cry. Expose all your sorrow. You need that now."
The excitement in Axton's little heart grew. All of Naora's remarks seemed to have succeeded in provoking the other weak side.
All this time .. No one has shed tears for my sake. No one said I could cry. Even Lana never did that for me. Naora ... Why did you do that? You can make my defense falter.
The handsome man who began to look sad face was momentarily reminded of all the words of Lana as his soul again churned due to the tormenting dark past.
No one can understand and accept all your flaws but me, Honey. Everyone will look bad at you if they know the tragic story of your past. Hide your tears of sorrow, for you will look weak. Stay strong and arrogant so that the eyes of the world do not look down on you. Really, my poor husband.
"Axton ...."
The man was stunned from the daydream when Naora's soft voice spoke his name. Slowly he turned his gaze towards Naora. This time he seemed no longer reluctant to show the look of his joints.
"Axton .. come here. You can spill all your pain on me." Naora spread out her hands.
When Lana told me to hide my dark side and never even cry for me, it was Naora who I hurt a lot, who cried for me, and was the only one who let me cry.
"Come here, Axton."
Really, it was so hard to sort out a word that was able to verbalize what the man felt. What is clear is that his chest is currently anchored to shame. All kinds of hidden flavors as if starting to burst onto the surface of the heart.
Axton ... began to ignore the sense of prestige that has been embedded in the self. He no longer tries to avoid his feelings. Slowly ... he stepped closer to his wife. Without hesitation, he welcomed the embrace that had been waiting for him since.
The tears of young master Arogan who has been detained for a long time. He overflows all the pain of the wound. Even the recess of Naora's neck was wet because the man had silenced his sobs there.
Naora, who was also still in tears, tried to gently rub Axton's back. Hope the action can add a sense of comfort and calm.
After a moment of emotional exhaustion, Axton lifted his face from the recess of Naora's neck and slightly untangled his embrace. He stared in a pair of hazel pearls that also returned the favor.
"Don't cry. You're so ugly."
Instead of being angry, Naora laughed softly in between her crying that began to subside. Axton's taunts are laughable to the ears.
"You're ugly too!" his reply.
For the first time, Axton smiled sincerely in front of Naora. Until the woman was fascinated. The curvature in the lips adds to its complete good looks.
When Axton was smiling, it was as if I saw a warm side of him. Should I start believing in Bi Milah and Nathan's words that Axton is actually a warm and loving personality?
"Norra."
"Hm?"
"I .. will not divorce you. You will still be my wife" Axton said firmly and straightforwardly. He tried to follow the impulse. Speak consciously and without coercion from anyone.
Between joy and doubt, Naora did not immediately respond to Axton's remarks. She is very happy because her marriage bond is no longer on the verge of divorce. But he also doubted whether his heart could ever bear to see the husband share love with his honey.
"You decided unilaterally, Axton."
"You have to accept my decision, Naora."
"Once again you act as you please." Naora put on a pouting face followed by pursed lips, making Axton feel anxious.
"This is how I am."
"Yes .. yes .. Why did I forget?" chirped Naora while Axton snorted amusedly.
Susana was silent. Only the accompaniment of the night animal singing ripples. The pair of human children were still unmoved.
Their eyes locked each other in. Digging feelings through the eyes. Until Axton's movement kills the space between his face and Naora's. Until their lips were fused together with the beating of the soul-stirring heart.
Very soft, Axton tasted Naora's tiny lips with full of feeling. No more harsh treatment or coercion. Until his kiss was received a welcome. Both of them so enjoy the sweet taste at every sip. The man was apparently very smart to play around, making the woman lulled into an inevitable favor.
"Ahk! Axton?" Naora was surprised when her body suddenly felt floating and was already inside Axton's gallant sling.
"Axton, what do you want?"
"Your body has been swept away for too long in the cold, Naora. You need a warm one now."
Without waiting for any more protests, Axton carries Naora's body to the building.
