THAT TASTE EXISTS

EPISODE 71 PRINCESS TRICKERY

Me and Gio are in the car. Gio started running his car. Gio plays the radio, a romantic song is heard immediately, you know what song? Beautiful Girl's.

"Gee.... Incidentally, the song was played, Van !" peekkik Gio's.

"Indeed why? " I'm pretending I don't want that song.

"Eng..... There's nothing at all... It's an old song but it's still good to hear" Gio said.

I'm nodding. In my heart I smiled amusedly.

Where are we talking, Van? ", ask Gio.

"It's up to you" I replied.

"To my apartment, yes! ", take Gio.

"No! How was it in the apartment?" my protest.

"So he said it was up to me, now why protest? "

"Can we talk both in the apartment anyway? "

"Don't think weird! I chose the apartment because it was quiet there. Nobody is disturbing. So we better talk about it. After all, now it is almost half nine, if we go to a cafe or restaurant not long they close" explained Gio.

"I promise, I'm not going to macem. You know me ! For a year on our road I've never been weird, right? Please believe me, Van!" said Gio again.

After thinking for a while, I finally agreed to Gio's will.

After almost half an hour we arrived at Gio's apartment. Elite apartment in west Surabaya. The apartment is spacious and comfortable.

We sat on the living room couch. Gio opened the curtains, looking beautiful view of the city of Surabaya, seen tall buildings with twinkling lights, vehicles and tares. I like this view.

Before sitting down, Gio took a drink in the refrigerator, chocolate milk uht and mineral water. "Drink first, Van"

"Thank you". I took the mineral water and I took it straight away.

Gio also drank a glass of mineral water. After drinking, Gio took a deep breath and started talking.

"No, I don't feel it, Van.... Time passed quickly, we have not seen each other for five years".

I was silent, not responding to Gio's words.

"I was shocked and happy when I met you at Nia's birthday party. And I'm even happier to know that Nia meant you, Van."

I was still silent, not making a sound.

"You know Nia, do you know who Nia is?" ask Gio.

"Your son and Princess," I replied quickly.

"True, Nia is indeed the daughter of the Princess, but Nia is not my flesh and blood," Gio began to enter on the subject.

"How come? Wasn't that night you were together? " tanyaku.

"That night we were together but did nothing because I was too drunk, so I fell asleep while in the room. When I found out about this, I was grateful, because if I didn't fall asleep, we might do something that didn't get bigger, I was drunk."

"Where do you know that? " many more.

"Of course from the Princess," replied Gio.

Gio sipped his drink again before continuing his story.

"I rented an apartment for the Princess and during her pregnancy I financed her needs as well, but we didn't live together".

"You're married, why don't you live together? "

"From the beginning I had made a black and white covenant with the Princess, which contained: I will be responsible for financing her during pregnancy until childbirth. After the child is born, a dna test should be done. If the test results are positive, the boy is shown to be my flesh and blood, we'll get married. If the typhoon is proved then the Princess and her son must stay away from my life forever."

"Why are you thinking of making such a deal? Didn't you say it was because of you pregnant princess? " many want to know.

"After we parted I thought a lot about this. I'm not sure it's my son and I also remember what you said, that you saw the Princess making out with the Caucasian guy at the cafe. I wondered, as to the truth of the Princess's words, so I made such a covenant."

I went back to silence. In my heart I'm glad that Gio trusts me.

"Daughter's pregnancy there are abnormalities that if the pregnancy is maintained can endanger his life. I never knew that at all. The princess purposely hid this from me. Every month I routinely take Princess control to the gynecologist, but the doctor never said anything to me, because the Princess begged the doctor not to tell me."

"What about his family? Do they know the Princess' condition? "

"Daughter, an orphan, she grew up in an orphanage. She's a kara, no family."

Gio took a deep breath again.

"The day before giving birth the Princess asked me and my family to come together because there was something important to say. At first we all refused, but because the Princess begged finally the meeting took place. That afternoon me, papa, mama, Gita and Putri gathered in the vip room of a resto."

Honestly, I'm interested to hear the continuation of Gio's story.

"At that time the Princess said that the child she contained was not my son, but the son of a WNA who had returned to his country because his employment contract in Indonesia was over. He lost contact with the stranger. Hearing this, of course, we were all very angry. Moreover I...., I was so emotional and dark in the eyes, that I almost slapped the Princess, but was held back by papa".

I saw Gio clenching his hands, his jaw hardening, it seemed like he was thinking back to the events back then.

I took the mineral water on the table, I gave it to Gio. I hope Gio can calm down a bit after drinking some water.

"Sunday after the Princess came into contact with the man, we left for Semarang. Daughters are afraid of getting pregnant without a husband, given when they are in contact not wearing safety. That's why the Princess planned to set me up. Besides for that reason, also because the Princess is obsessed with having me. Then go that dirty way. Although the time of the trip the Princess was not pregnant yet, but she deliberately ran her ruse just in case. So if she's really pregnant, she'll scapegoat me."

"It's so bad ! " unknowingly I commented.

"Yes.... I think so too. You can hear the words of Princess and Tina in the mall, it is also part of the Princess' plan. At first he did not accidentally see you in the mall, he followed you, saw you sitting alone in the food court he also invited Tina to conspire. Finally you hear their talk, they also deliberately walk past you so you can see who was talking. Princess is sure you will not stay silent, you will definitely find out and try to uncover what really happened and she is sure you will decide me after you know everything. "

"Beneficial ! Selfish ! I have no heart ! Only for the sake of his obsession did he destroy the happiness and hopes of others! " I express my heart with emotion.

I really did not expect the pain I felt all these years because of the Princess. My eyes feel so hot hearing Gio's story. Stupidly I can be fooled like that.... Unknowingly my tears flowed.

Seeing that, Gio sat closer, took a tissue at the table and wiped my tears. Gio also held my hand. I just kept quiet and didn't refuse, because I didn't realize it all. All I had in mind was the pain I felt back then. Where for a long time I felt the pain, I had to treat my wounds, I was trained to organize my heart, to be able to get through my days.

After seeing me calm down, Gio asked, "Want me to continue the story? "

I just nodded my head.

"After the Princess made a confession, the next day she contracted, I took her to the hospital, it was time to give birth. The doctor suggested surgery but the Princess insisted on giving birth normally. As a result of her pregnancy disorder, the Princess had difficulty during childbirth, she had severe bleeding, the doctor had managed to remove the baby, but the doctor did not manage to save the Princess' life. She died after Nia was born".

"At that time my family and I intended to hand Nia over to one of the orphanages. But somehow seeing Nia's cute face and sweet smile, there was a sense of unbearability to the tiny baby."

Gio gave a small smile, probably considering how cute Nia was as a baby.

"It turns out my parents also did not want Nia to be handed over to the orphanage. They were happy with Nia's existence. They asked me to adopt Nia and consider Nia as their granddaughter. Papa said the mistakes made by the Princess should not we vent to Nia. Here, Nia is the victim, she can't choose to be born by whom."

"That day, after revealing her ruse, the Princess asked me to offer her apology to you, Van. He regretted his actions and he also felt guilty for messing up our relationship."

I'm speechless. What the Princess has broken can't come back just because of a piece of sorry, I thought.

"After that incident I started looking for you, Van. I went to Ricky's papi's house, but you guys moved out. I can't call you or your family because my phone is missing, and your numbers are all there. I don't know where you are, I went to Siska and Fani in Jogja's office but they didn't want to tell me about you".

It is I who asked them not to give you any information about me, I said in my heart.

Gio ruffled his hair

"At that time I had frustration, severe stress, even said my doctor was depressed, Van. I wanted to see you to explain everything, but I couldn't find you. I became lazy to do anything, even I did not go to work for months, until I was phk by the office where I worked. Every day my work is just sitting daydreaming while smoking, even though you know I am not a smoker. Knowing my situation like that, papa immediately took me back to Jakarta. I was taken to a psychologist, I was treated for months, until I was finally declared cured".

I didn't expect, the injuries Gio felt were much heavier than me. My eyes were hot again, I really could not imagine Gio's state of depression like that.

"You know what makes me recover so quickly?" ask Gio

"What's? " i asked back.

"Motivation of the doctor. The doctor said: I have to heal so I can see you."

My chest is rustling, so do I make Gio?

"After that motivation I was determined to heal. After I recovered, I went back to normal activities, working again."

"It is only because of one man that it destroys the lives of many and troubles many people ".

"Already, Van. Don't take heart, the guy's gone. Now I'm relieved, Van, because what I've been keeping all this time I've told you all about."

"Thank you for sharing the story" I said.

"No need to thank you, Van Indeed has been since four years ago I intend to tell this to you, just there is no chance."

"When did you move to Surabaya? " many

"Since three years ago I decided to move to Surabaya and open a business here. I chose Surabaya, because this is the city where you live. I really hope to see you again".

"That's three years? "

"Yes, Van. It's been three years since Nia and I moved to Surabaya".

So it has been three years Gio in Surabaya and we never met at all. How can ya....??

"It turns out the motivation of the doctor was really, Van... Because I'm healed, right now

I can meet you," Gio said with a smile.

"Van, did you ever remember or think of me after we split up? " ask Gio

"Not only ever but often at the beginning of our separation. But I don't want to fall, so I force my heart and brain to throw away or forget our past memories as much as possible."

"Did you succeed? " tanta Gio

"Successful, even if it takes a long time" I replied.

Hearing my answer at a glance I saw a cloud in his eyes, but only briefly and returned to normal.

"By Ricky, by the way, how's she doing? "

"Well, they're healthy" I said.

"One day I'll meet your papi and your mama."

"For what? "

"What relationship is wrong? I haven't seen them in a long time".

"Whatever you are", I said.

Gio smiled back

"Gio, it's late now, I want to go home" I said.

"Now, Van? " task Gio as he smiles and winks his eyes

"Basic mode!! ", I replied with a glare.

"Haha.... Your reaction hasn't changed, Van! Funny and make gemes! "

"Not laugh ! Funny and make gemes... What do you think I'm Nia?"

"Haha... Don't be mad, dong ! You're not Nia, but you're Nia's future mommy"

"Didnit! What the hell ! Not funny!"

"I'm not funny" said Gio, laughing.

"Or ah!! "

"No need to go that way ! Let me anter home! ", take Gio.
