The Love of the Master
Episode 170 Cowardly Man



After the hug came off, Nathan immediately grabbed that hand. The hot hand felt by the Goddess. Instantly, the girl became anxious. What is the cause of pain because of it? Butwhy? He himself felt he had never done anything.


"Will you shut up? Do I need to tell the Goddess?" god said to his brother. His younger brother was furious himself, having such a cowardly brother.


"God" protested the mother.


"Why? Did I say something wrong like that? What kind of man are you!" his father was angry with his brother.


"We'd better get out, let them solve their problems." Nindya pulled the arm of the God out with her.


The trouble? What problems? I don't feel like I have a problem with him. Why did they leave me with this man?


Now Nathan and the Goddess are left in that room. The goddess became nervous as Nathan drew closer to her. His body trembled as it held the weight of a body that felt limp. Since yesterday, he has not had a taste for food. Part of his life is gone.


Seeing the trembling feet, the Goddess became pity. He invited Nathan to sit down. They both sat on the edge of Nathan's parents' bed. The man clasped the hand of the Goddess, suddenly, the Goddess immediately directed her gaze towards his hand.


"I don't know how many times I have to apologize to you so you can forgive me. I'm so sorry, Dewi," said Nathan.


The goddess was silent, because indeed the fault of Nathan who always insulted her was quite outrageous. Without proof he alleged that she was a despicable woman. Lapsed here with another man. I never thought I would have a lover. According to him, at the age of just 19 years is not for dating. He wants to reach his goals and return the favor for all the good families who have raised and cared for him so far.


"Do you hate me? Can't you forgive me?" nathan asked without letting go of his grasp.


"I don't hate you, brother. I forgive you too." Dewi replied as she pulled her arm. He was afraid of Nathan's suddenly changed attitude.


"Do you love, Akhsa?" ask without further ado.


Surprised by Nathan's question made him stare at the man. Their gaze met, there was something in the eyes of the man. A different look when felt. Nathan changed his sitting position, now he faced towards the Goddess. The raised leg next to the bed in the coiled position, and the side remains down.


Nathan again grabbed the Goddess' hand. The girl was getting confused, what would she do to him?


"Tell me the truth, do you love that guy? The man who's been my best friend all this time?"


"Brother's question is strange, why ask a question I never thought of?"


"You're close, even only he knows where you are. I thought you loved her."


"I never thought about love, my life is still hard. Do you know how I felt while living here? I feel bad because there are people who don't like me here. What I'm thinking about is how not to rely on others. And now, I will no longer rely on this family. I've met my parents, I'll stay with him from now on."


A very satisfied answer and at the same time made him sick. Loved the answer that the Goddess had no feelings for Akhsa. The pain when the tiny lips are uttered will no longer depend on this family. That means, there is no chance for him to be with her every day in this house.


"Didn't you like my departure?"


A question he didn't want to hear at all, not one he liked. Nathan didn't want the woman to leave, forever wanting to be like this. Always the two until the girl puts her heart on him. He will not waste his chance, and as much as possible he will make the girl comfortable with him.


"If I'm not happy how? If I were happier you were here what would you do? Are you going to stay here? Let's just say that you're redeeming all the family's good?"


No matter his pushy desires, he still wanted the Goddess to be here. Didn't want the girl to leave him, even though he had been reunited with his father.


"Why not happy? And why am I happier here?" ask Goddess.


A little why? Don't you know how I feel. Shit, the deal's torturing me. If Akhsa knew I was expressing my feelings she would be angry that she had promised not to express love before knowing to whom the heart of the Goddess was anchored.


"Why? Brother himself can't answer, can he? What makes you happy that I am here? Is it because I can't insult you anymore? And it's become your habit of making me sick, isn't it?"


Either innocently or deliberately lure Nathan to confess his feelings. The strong whistling goddess will leave while no one can make her stay here without a strong enough reason. What else is keeping him in this house? His parents are known, of course he will choose to go with his parents, right?


"If there's no answer that makes me stay here, I'll go, brother. I'm sorry I've always made you emotional, I'm gone." The goddess removed her hand from Nathan's grasp.


While the man was so cowardly, still harboring feelings until finally the Goddess left his life. He also has to maintain a friendship that has been well established. He is sure that the soul mate is not going anywhere.

"Aunty, I gotta go. I'm sorry for always troubling you, I promise I'll play here often" said Dewi.


"Then, Nathan? You're going to leave him? He loves you, Goddess. Did you forgive her mistake?"


The goddess was stunned by the middle-aged woman's words. Although his heart had felt the attitude of Nathan that changed drastically, but he still did not believe if the man himself expressed his feelings.


"Sister Nathan himself didn't say anything to me, Aunty. If he really loves me, he's gonna come after me, right? I'll keep going, let Brother Nathan convince his own feelings. Love needs proof, not just from expression" explained Dewi.


"Didn't you have feelings for her? Although little?" ask Nindya.


"Let time answer that."


He will never confess his feelings before he is sure of the man's love. He was afraid of pain in the future because the man's feelings had not yet solidified his feelings for him.


"I'm leaving, Aunty. Greetings to others, I promise to come here often." The goddess hugged him, then after that completely left.

After Dewi's departure, Nindya meets her son.


"The opportunity won't come a second time, Nathan. You are a coward!" upset the mommy to her son who is still sitting alone in his room. To just chase after Nathan can't. A body that cannot be compromised, but he is convinced that one day the Goddess will be his. Not now, but later.
