THE OWEN HEART BEAT

OWEN-73

...❄️...

...❄️...

...❄️...

In the darkness of night. Owen, who was in the middle of a jealous mood, could only sit quietly in the middle of his living room which felt increasingly quiet.

The time has already shown at 2 am. But his eyes were still awake. It cannot be completely closed.

Supposedly, this was another happiest day in Owen's life. His days filled with longing may be coming to an end. Surprisingly, he did not feel that way.

And right now, only a few cans of beer still faithfully accompanied him. Owen was still trying to refrain from longing and jealousy that had always disturbed his heart.

Although in the depths of his heart he felt relieved and also happy because he could meet and see Mia again, the girl who for some time ago even he did not know where her whereabouts, he said, but now it was only a few steps ahead of him; it still could not cover what Owen was feeling.

Hearing her beloved girl miss another man, stirred up a foreign feeling in Owen's chest. There is pain and disappointment that is getting longer and further undermining his common sense, and the longer the more brutal. Owen's pain.

Even that jealousy didn't seem to allow Owen to think as he should. He was too angry and agitated. Which man had currently made his woman turn away?

...Goddamn bum!...

...Owen could only lament....

It turned out that he was too late all this time. The girl he loved so much had tethered his heart to another man. The man who knows who. But he was convinced that the man was a man who could shake Mia's heart..

...Argh. Damnit damnit! Damnit damnit! Damnit damnit!...

All this because of his mistake. A mistake that made him unable to even dodge. Never mind to defend himself, even it seemed like Owen no longer had the chance even though he desperately wanted to get his hands on it.

Was he so shameless, for wanting something that no longer belonged to him? Or should he be selfish, again? just one more time.

Owen wanted to prove that his feelings never changed. If the love he had once remained the same. Even his heart was never sidetracked for a moment..

Everything is still the same. Still remains for a Mia. Owen just wanted to show it. Heartfeltness. Sincerity love. That'sallthatis..

Owen wanted to be given a chance to make amends beforehand. He wanted to be given the opportunity to once again give happiness to the woman he loved so much.

...But apparently.......

"Owen..?"

A distinctive soft voice mixed with a burst of shock struck Owen's consciousness. Makes his body stiffen. That's Mia. The girl who even looked reluctant to look into his eyes, just now.

...What do you do at a clock like this? want to escape again?...

Mia herself was unsure of what she was seeing at the moment. Because the place is too dark. But from the faint light outside the balcony, Mia recognized the figure. The figure that was currently looking was more alert than before.

"What are you doing there? you haven't slept?" tanya Mia assured herself that it was Owen.

Mia walked slowly to find a place to turn on the lights. He wanted to go to the kitchen to get a drink. He thought Owen had fallen asleep just like him. But apparently.. "Do you need anything?" owen stopped Mia's steps.

"I thirst. I just want to.."

"Just wait. I'll take it for you." Owen once again made Mia completely speechless.

He stood obediently near the door of the room he was currently occupying, leaning against the wall, waiting.

Mia doesn't know if Owen's still awake. Is Owen uncomfortable with me being here? is that why he can't sleep? because I'm interrupting her? thought Mia was still sculpting.

"Here, drink it." Faintly Mia could see the glass Owen thrust at her. Also Owen's breath was slightly smelling of alcohol.

...Did Owen just have a drink here? by himself? Whyyy?...

Mia could not see clearly how Owen's current facial expression was. Is the man looking at him, or is it the other way around?

"Thank you." said Mia. And while picking up the glass accidentally Mia's fingers touched Owen's fingers.

Chilly. Yeah, that guy's hand feels cold. What does it do in this weather, even without turning on the heating. But never mind, it's none of my business.

After draining the mineral water from the glass, Mia could feel relieved. The throat that was dry now feels fresh.

And Owen was still standing there. Not moving one bit. "Are you okay?" just now Mia asked without realizing Owen was standing closer, even too close.

Degs..

Degs..

"Mia, I'm glad to see you again. Really am. And also, I'm sorry." Owen knows what he's doing. He shouldn't have scared Mia like this with his attitude. But, just once. Owen really wanted to be that guy..

Being the one who had made her beloved girl smile happily with so many strands of love waiting for the two..

"Mia, what should I do? let me tell you if I haven't been okay all this time. I miss you so much. I'm trying to forget you the way you want. But I can't. I should how?" Owen rested his head on Mia's shoulder.

Degs..

"I really don't know what to do now. Am I being too selfish, because I still love you?"

Mia had no idea what Owen meant to say to her. But the one he knew, the confession, and also their current closeness, Mia did not hate him. Even his heart was pounding once more.

"Owen.." call Mia who wants Owen to speak well if the man really wants to talk. But not in this kind of surprising way.

"Owen.

Mia's gentle call made Owen raise his head. Both eyes were looking at him even in the dark. And once again, Mia's blood rippled rapidly.

Although it felt awkward, but this feeling was still too familiar to the two;

With full awareness, Mia could feel if the current soft and warm lips that had once touched her lips were back there. In the same place.a place that makes himself feel ..pounding.

Deg ..

But oddly enough, Owen's kiss was neither a demanding kiss nor a forced kiss. But instead, Owen's kiss was like a touch so soft. Caressing, persuading and also waiting..

Waiting for Mia to open up and accept. Accepting what the man will give, accepting what Owen wants to convey through the touch of his lips..

Conscious Mia! You can't do this! This is not the right thing!

...❄️❄️...

At four o'clock in the morning, Mia could only be silently glued while gently stroking Owen's hair which was currently asleep on her lap.

The man immediately fell asleep after hugging and crying in his arms. Mia had no idea what made Owen that way. Owen said nothing. In addition to the confession. Is this guy really drunk?

Butwhy? why does he have to see everything? And why should he hear all these confessions? why did Owen have to show this side of himself? and make my heart....

Without even realizing it, her tears just flowed. The tears that had been forcing me to get out of place.

His heart was again in pain. Even his chest was burning. But strangely he was happy. That's what surprised Mia. What happened to him. Why did he have to go through the night feeling this way.

During this time he has struggled well to overcome his heart and also his hurt feelings. But why, his efforts just felt futile.

Why is his heart so weak. Has he completely forgotten everything? forgot feelings? and also this guy's fault?

...No. gabe....

...You're wrong Mia. You wrong. It doesn't mean anything. Yeah, this doesn't mean anything. Everything that happened tonight was not reality....

...You've been doing your best all along. You've already done it.. You've already done it....

.......

.......

.......

...Really do?...
