THE OWEN HEART BEAT

OWEN-29

It seemed like Owen had to explain everything from the beginning. Seeing from the expression Mia gave, the girl would not just believe what Owen said. Especially Vivian.

"Do you have time to listen to my story?" owen said after considering telling Mia about the true relationship between herself and Vivian.

"I mean do you really want to hear it now? Because honestly I don't want to interrupt your break, Mia." Owen knew very well how tired the girl was after coming home from work. And now, her rest time must be reduced due to her actions.

"You've done Owen's." Mia pointed at the watch in her hand that already showed at 11 p.m. Owen smiled awkwardly again. He felt silly and stupid at the same time.

"Ah, I'm sorry Mia. Like I forgot the time." Owen really did not expect if he came so late to Mia's apartment and expressed love when the girl should have been fast asleep.

Mia smiled with understanding. And for him, this was also not a good time to sleep. Owen had already started something that would keep them awake all night, and it should have been their conversation completed until there was nothing to question later.

"You can tell me anything if you want. And I'll listen to you just like if we were in class." Mia slightly melted the atmosphere. "You know I'm always focused when you teach. But before that, I will make a warm chocolate for us" said Mia who directly passed towards the kitchen.

Those of us who had just spoken from Mia's lips sounded so sweet to Owen. Ah.. His heart is really in trouble.

...❄️❄️...

A cup of warm chocolate with smoke still billowing made the atmosphere between the two become a little awkward.

"I was confused where to start Mia from" said Owen who sat right in front of Mia. While the girl made her position as comfortable as possible to listen to Owen's story.

Mia also picked up the cushion of the sofa and held it tightly, "You can start anywhere. I'll listen." said Mia.

Owen began his story. The story begins when he first begins to know Vivian, Owen's first love.

Telling her about herself to Mia makes Owen feel like he is teaching a biography course, while Mia looks enthusiastic.

Sometimes the girl interrupts. Sometimes he asks questions. And sometimes Mia just listened in silence.

...❄️❄️...

And hear the reason why they should split up. Mia was a little doubtful whether Owen's feelings for her were true feelings or just a momentary one. Especially after Mia found out that the two were still in contact until a few hours ago.

In the story section about how Owen left his old life until the story where they met, Mia really felt like hearing a fairy tale. If it were to be Owen, Mia would not have chosen the path that Owen had chosen at the moment.

Maybe because Mia had felt how tired she was looking for money to finance her life.

Therefore, it is difficult to believe some of the truth of Owen's story. Acknowledging that the man who threw away his life to gain freedom falls in love with her makes Mia's head feel dizzy.

"Mia...?" Call Owen when he finds Mia dissolved in her own mind. "Mia, did you hear me?"

Owen approached Mia and closed the distance between the two, causing Mia to flinch and lock her eyes.

"You didn't listen to me." Owen's voice turned low. Oh God. Mia swore that the current Owen really gave Mia goosebumps.

"A-what...?"

Owen's gaze fell on the rancid lips that were currently being bitten by Mia. "I've been calling you since, but you seem to be ignoring me." accused Owen of making Mia's face meet.

...Degs.....

...Degs.....

"Ak-I."

Owen drew his face closer, "Sstttt... Mia I'm sorry. I really can't help it anymore" Owen said.

Mia's brain is frozen. His eyes were perfectly rounded as the lips of the two fused together so gently.

...Argha! Fucking heart. Slow down your voice!...
