The Love That Is Taken

Meet Eric Again

“But if for example someone told him about Mina how? Would you add berabe?”

“Who will say? I only know you and Mimin here. Your time will not destroy my household?”

“Yes no, Bro. But we routinely come here. I'm afraid a friend of your wife's saw and reported to her. That's the worst possibility I could think of, anyway. Hopefully it doesn't happen.”

Jonathan nodded in agreement. Don't let that happen, she hoped in her heart. Can really break up my household later!

One day Jonathan went to monitor his property company. Karin went with him. The girl is now used to handling most of Rosa's work. She was indeed a smart girl, praised her boss inwardly. His dexterity and skill were also almost on par with his tant. Hopefully he feels at home working for me in the long run, Jonathan's mind is hopeful.

As he and Karin walked through the lobby of the marketing office, the voice of a man called out the name of his secretary. Oh, the man who met the other day at the exhibition, he murmured inwardly. Karin's ex-girlfriend. What'd he want to come here for?

“Eric,” says Karin surprised.

The young man in question walked up to him and smiled sweetly. “It turns out we're a match, Karin. Twice met by accident,”he said cheerfully.

“What are you doing here, Ric?” ask the girl awkwardly.

“I work with inhouse marketing, Rin. I just brought the client and the marketing that would explain the product of his apartment at length. I actually understand it myself but of course it is less detailed. What are you doing here?”

“I work as a secretary here. Same with the paint company. This is my boss.”

“Oh, introduce me Eric, Sir. Agent from X-Property office,” said the dapper-looking young man as he reached out to Jonathan.

“Jonathan, his superior Karin,” Jonathan replied as he shook the outstretched hand in front of him. “Thank you for helping to market our apartment products. Have you ever closed?”

“New one unit, Sir. Three bedroom.”

“Wah, that's great.”

“Thank you. Hopefully my client this one also so take one unit. It looks the same, interested in the type two bedroom.”

“May go smoothly yes, Mr. Eric.”

“Call Eric only, Sir. I'm the same age as Karin.”

“Ok, then. Do you two need time to talk for a while? It’s ok, Karin. Our meeting is still half an hour away, right?”

Eric didn't waste this good opportunity. Before Karin could answer, the young man interrupted immediately, “Thank you very much, sir. There is indeed an important thing I need to talk about with Karin.”

“Oh, please. Keep an eye on Eric, Karin. I wait for you in my room,” Jonathan said straightforwardly. He briefly caught his secretary's glare that glared irritatedly at the young man before him. Ah, like a lover who is craving, he thought amusedly. Let them solve their own problems. I don't have to interfere.

Then the number one person in the office passed by leaving Karin and Eric. The secretary then took her ex-boyfriend to sit on one of the sofas in the lobby. He asked in a cold tone, “No your client has been left for a long time with inhouse marketing? Ntar you are wanted, you know.”

“Hehehe. Right before you came. I went to the toilet and went back to the office. Uh, even met you. Long time working here?”

“Almost a month.”

“Indeed you come here often?”

“Ngak. But in a month can be three-four times here. Follow training product knowledge, between clients, ask for brochures, various.”

“Crajin also.”

“I'll work without a salary, Rin. Purely from the commission of transaction of buying and selling or renting property. If not diligent, where can I get money.”

“Kan papa Emma is rich, has a luxury car showroom. You can work there.”

Eric was silent for a moment. Karin stared fixed until the girl felt uncomfortable. “I've broken up with Emma...”.

His opponents were in disbelief. “Ta..but.Emma is pregnant, Ric,” asked Karin stammering. The girl's mind became confused for a moment.

“The fetus it contains is not my son.”

“Yes, Lord!”

“Emma apparently had an affair with her own sister-in-law. He deliberately set me up and pretended that the fetus he contained was my son so that his forbidden relationship was not discovered. But finally his brother found out and a great fight ensued. Emma fell down the stairs of her house and rolled to the floor. As a result she had a miscarriage..”.

Karin was so amazed to hear the young man's story. Remembered by her Emma, Eric's co-worker in his old office, begged him to cut ties with the young man. The girl told me in tears that she had been having sex with Eric until she became pregnant. Karin was frustrated at the time. He has trouble eating, sleeping, and doing activities. It was the tantamount who raised his spirit back to open a new page without Eric.

“You know where Emma cheated with her own sister-in-law?” ask Karin to investigate.

“I was at Emma's house back then. We were both in talks with her parents about the wedding plans. Suddenly his sister came in a state of great anger. Her husband tagged along and just kept silent in front of Emma.”'s parents

Karin scrunched her forehead and asked, “Emma why would you have an affair with her own sister-in-law?”

“According to his confession they actually fell in love with each other when his sister-in-law was single. But the parents of both sides agreed to match the man to Emma's older sister because of the eldest child. So married in order of birth.”

“Oh, marriage results from matchmaking between parents?”

“Yes.”

“Then how's Emma's fate?”

“She plans to marry her sister-in-law. The marriage of the man to his brother has not produced any children. Emma's sister is already suing for divorce. I haven't been in contact with Emma since she got out of the hospital. He apologized to me and at once..”.

Suddenly Eric's words were interrupted. He looked back at Karin clingy. Then she continued her sentence, “Emma left her apology for you. She was embarrassed to tell you directly. He said he would be relieved if we got back together..”.

The girl was stunned for a while. His heart hurts so much. The woman named Emma really does not know herself, she said in her heart. As if to ask me to do his will! I used to beg for Eric to be his. Now this man dumped her back to me after she was no longer needed. It's just so awesome!

“Rin...,” said Eric gently as he reached for the hand of the girl he still loved. Karin gasps. As if stung by an electric current he jerked the hand of his ex-lover. The young man then retreated and raised both his hands.

“Ok, I get it, Rin. You still can't forgive me,” he said. “I know it's not easy for you to take me back. That's why I haven't been looking for you so broke up with Emma. Let me give you time to heal the wounds of the heart. But then I saw you at the property fair. I thought it was God-given time that I would tell you everything.”.
