SPECIAL ACTOR

CHAPTER 33. DON'T LEAVE ME

“Please don't start again.”

“I am just expressing my heart. I'm just a crippled Dante! Of course you'll never want to hear me.”

“Enough! Don't start again Tatiana!” said Dante with high intonation.

“My decision to remain in my world and take care of my organization is not due to problems in our lives! I have never disputed all your flaws. We have a deal!”

“That's what you think. But to me it's a problem!”

“Tatiana!”

“Dante! I'm just gonna take a break, I'm tired. Leave me alone.”

“Reason! You just want to get away from me.”

“Was it appropriate for me to avoid my handsome and rich husband who always loved me for who I am, never shared a heart with another woman even though I was barren?”

That sentence made Dante lingling, he could not respond to his wife's words. He wanted to chase after her but Tatiana had already stepped away with quick steps.

Dante was only speechless with his thoughts floating on the figure of the woman who was now in his penthouse. “Is my wife suspicious of me?”

“Tatiana wait!” as his consciousness recovered, Dante returned to pursue his wife.

“What else Dante? Is it not clear what I said?”

“Dragon talks Tatiana! I don't like you talking rudely like that to me.”

Dante spoke to his wife in a cold, high tone of voice. “Let go of me Dante.”

“No will! Before you return again to be my obedient Tatiana I will never let go of my embrace.” Dante did not obey his wife's will he instead joined his embrace in his wife's body.

“I'll be your Tatiana forever, Dante.”

“I know but not like this. I don't like to see you pessimistic, TatianI always give me encouragement, is he still there? You change a lot now.” said Dante whispering in his wife's ear while pecking at the top of his hair.

“I'm sorry Dante...I..

“Hey...hey. Don't keep apologizing to me, baby.”

Dante tried to calm his wife by stroking her back. His one hand still carried the sleeping Alex, he only had one more hand to stroke his wife's back.

“I'm sorry Dante, I can't control my emotions. I-I was just afraid that losing you in the black world was so terrible, that when would you be there? When are you gonna find your father's killer? I don't think finding your father's killer will give you peace of mind either.” Tatiana looked up at Dante who was still holding her.

“Peace is here Dante.” he said while holding Dante's chest. “Money is here! Not in the way you do. Revenge will never solve all problems.”

“There's still a lot of business to do here. I've started it, so I have to end it too. Not by escaping and leaving something that has not been completed.” said Dante still insisted.

“Alright then you want. I'll take it. I'll wait until it's all over.”

“You won't be able to take it Tatiana! Look at your attitude just like this already shows that you suffered so much living with me.”

“No...I don't suffer I'm just afraid of losing you. Alex and I could never live without you.” The corner of the woman's eyes drips a clear liquid.

“I'll be fine. Didn't I always come home safe?”

“I'm sorry because the fear of losing you has made me so angry lately.”

“Often gather with your community, that way you have activities and you will not be afraid when I leave you at home.”

“Well shall I do.” replied Tatiana while nodding. Dante tightened his embrace on his wife.

“And never again say the last words you said before, before I pull you, dear.” pinta Dante with a soft voice but full of nutrition.

“I'm sorry. But I speak according to reality, I can't give you a child.” Tatiana said slowly but the sentence pierced Dante deeply.

“That's just because of circumstances, there's no need for you to think about it anymore. Isn't there enough Alex for you?”

“He is more than enough.” replied Tatiana while glancing at her son who slept soundly in Dante's arms.

“I thank you for bringing Alex to me.” there was a smile on Tatiana's face as she spoke and she looked at her husband with soft eyes. “You'd better take him to his room, he sleeps very well and will be more comfortable if he sleeps in his bed.”

“You're right, baby. Are you feeling calmer now?” ask Dante.

Tatiana smiled but she still shook her head. “Dante dear....I will never calm down until you get out of the black world. But at least now I can control myself.” he said slowly.

“Good. What if I change my question. Are you in control of yourself?”

Tatiana smiled at her husband's joke, Dante replied with an even sweeter smile until the two dimples on her face clearly made her face sweet despite the firmness that did not escape the line of her face.

“I love seeing you smile like Tatiana. Don't worry about me too much, everything will be fine. You have to trust me.”

“I'll try to believe what you said, Dante. I also want you to promise me one thing.”

“Whatever it is, dear.” said Dante nodding.

“Please promise me, once all this is done then you will stay with me and Alex where we once promised.”

Dante replied with a nod while smiling back.

“Do you remember where that place is?”

“Of course. Switzerland. I remember you wanted to live near a beautiful lake with clear water. From the front porch of our house you can see the top of an ice-covered mountain with green meadows behind it and pine forests not far from our home.”

“Ya right. Thanks for remembering it.” Tatiana smiled and nodded happily.

‘God...thank you for giving me a good husband to accompany me and love me. Dante..he's a perfect figure as a friend he's been a best friend for twenty years. As a lover he has been my lover for twenty years and as a husband he has been my husband for fifteen years.’ he said seeing the smiling arch of lips belonging to Dante standing before him.

‘We will realize your dream Tatiana.’ whispered Dante's heart.

“Rural atmosphere is much more frenzied than urban with cool and beautiful air. We're gonna live there and age there. You want to grant it?” ask Tatiana again.

“Of course.” Dante promised and hugged his wife.

“Thanks Dante!” the man's words calmed Tatiana's heart but instead made Dante's heart churn unsettled, he grew fragile and hurt.

‘Can I fulfill my promise to you?’ Dante was agitated and his mind floated everywhere, and he had not calmed down since. ‘Is he okay there? What the hell is he doing now? Belinda!’ His heart was clucking eagerly as he ran to meet someone who always filled his mind. His heart sometimes misses someone and always feels unsettled.
