The Bride's Tears Replacement
Chapter 34
After ending the conversation with Joy. Rafa soon follows Cinta who is preparing a Cake that he just finished making.
"Darling, the cake is ready." Sitting in a poolside chair, where Love serves the cake.
"I don't know if it's delicious or not, Mom." He said a little sad.
"Sit down." Clapping her thighs, gave the code for Love to sit on her lap.
Though hesitant Love follows the direction of her husband. She did not want her husband to be angry and grumbling.
"Prepare the cake." Circling her hands on the waist of Love when Love is already sitting on her lap.
Love feeds a small piece of her homemade pandanus sponge. Rafa opened his mouth wide, then started chewing. Love waits with worry what response Rafa will say.
"Enak, sweet." Rafa.
A happy smile filled the face of love. Finally she could feel her beauty as her husband praised the results of her cooking.
"That's happy? Is this your first time cooking?" Prince asked in surprise because Love was really happy like a child who could cook for the first time.
"No. I cook a lot."
"Then?" Opening his mouth again, a sign of wanting to be fed.
"Nobody ever praises my cooking, no matter what I cook." Bribed another cake to Rafa.
"really? I'm the first one to praise the food you're cooking?" He said while meeting food.
"Yes. I was the first to praise my cooking." Shame of shame.
"Did your ex-husband never praise you?" Ask in doubt.
Just a slow nod of Love in response. His face that had flowered flowers turned sad.
"Do you like to remember?" Squeeze his embrace.
"What are you curious about my old marriage?" Facing his body to Rafa.
"Yes." Yeah." Answer Rafa flat.
"About which part?" Feed the cake to Rafa.
"Yes, about her treatment of you. Then, why would he divorce a woman as beautiful as you?" Ask Rafa.
A moment Love is silent. Then, he turned his gaze to stare at the puddle of water within the pond.
"Short story she married me. On the first night..." The words of love stopped. Rafa kissed his lips suddenly.
"Skip about it. I don't want to hear it." Ending kisses.
"Listen up." Protests Love slapped Rafa's wrist.
"All right." Sewot.
"So on that first night, I was about to take off my veil. But he immediately turned his face away. He forbade me from taking off my veil. Said he didn't want to get shit for looking at my face." Reciprocity.
"So she never saw your face?" Rafa's question almost choked.
Love shakes sure.
"Then, that photo of you kissing?" Getting curious.
"That's editan. Febi edited it. Febi told the man, my face in the photo wasn't the real one."
"Why is that?"
"Febi told all the men who were interested in me, my ugly face had a burn scar and it was disgusting. Anyone who sees my face will get shit." Relaxedly.
"really so? Then, am I going to get unlucky as well?" Rafa asked making a shocked expression.
Straight away the hand of Love pinched both sides of Rafa's cheeks.
"This look at my face, then Rafa Aditya will be unlucky for life." Grumpy Love annoyed mixed with rage.
"For instance, it hurts." Trying to take Love's hand off her cheek.
Love rose from her seat, she was about to step away, but was quickly held back by Rafa.
"You haven't told me how he treated you and why he divorced you." Pulling back the body of Love to sit on his lap.
"He treated me like a call woman." Speak without pause.
"He divorced me, for fear of being unlucky. And he doesn't want my body anymore." He spoke very quickly.
Rafa just nodded. He didn't know what to react to. Only hugs and kisses are allowed Love can do.
'One by one I began to understand. Now, I wonder what your relationship with Joy was like in the past, Love.' His inner.
