The Painful Love Story

You'll Regret it

With trembling hands, Lyora stared fixedly at Ellina. She did not expect that the woman she was shaking hands with was now the future wife of Zean, the man she loved so much. Of course, that fact made Lyora's feelings become shattered into pieces.

So ... So this woman will be betrothed to Zean?

On the other hand Ellina who thinks that Lyora is a good friend of Zyl tried to smile as warmly as possible even though she honestly felt uncomfortable when Zyl introduced her as a future wife Zean. But Ellina could not avoid it because that was the fact.

For a long time the two shook hands, making Ellina a little confused by Lyora's strange attitude. Moreover, Ellina felt that her fingers were currently being finely squeezed by Lyora.

"It's nice to meet you, Ellina" Lyora said in a choked voice as she continued to scan Ellina's face.

"It's great to meet you too Lyora." replies Ellina.

Lyora immediately let go of their hands and tried to normalize her expression while putting on a fake smile.

"When are you and Zean getting married?" ask Lyora after she can control herself.

"Next week." not Ellina who answered but Zyl.

Deg.

"What?! Next week?!" cry Lyora.

"Yes next week. Oh yeah, Ellina we better go home now. Aren't there still a lot of things we have to do?!" said Zyl who immediately turned her attention to Ellina.

Ellina who had been feeling awkward even nodded in agreement.

"Sorry Lyora, it looks like we have to go. Have a nice day."

Without saying much Zyl immediately pulled Ellina's hand and left Lyora still pecking with a million chest tightness.

"Zean's getting married?" lyora Lirih.

"No! Zean can't marry that woman! I won't let Mr Wildan's plan succeed once he damages my future and separates me from Zean! I had to tell Zean immediately that he was the mastermind behind the breakdown of our relationship. Yeah I have to tell Zean right away, gotta!" lyora said in a panic.

******

On the way home, through the tail of her eyes several times Ellina glanced at Zyl who was focusing on driving a car.

Somehow Ellina felt after meeting with Lyora the attitude of her sister-in-law immediately turned cold.

Like there is a pent up anger. Butwhy? And who was Lyora? Do both have problems?

Various questions arise in Ellina's mind, but Ellina prefers silence. Because he felt that whatever happened between Lyora and Zyl was none of his business. Until finally in the car created a long silence.

"He's Zean's ex-lover" said Zyl suddenly to make Ellina stunned and turned her head towards him.

"Yes?!"

"You want to know who that girl is, don't you? He's Zean's ex-lover, your future husband!" reset Zyl.

"Oh." answered Ellina briefly.

Lyora's attitude was very strange. Even she was so shocked to find out that Zean was going to marry me.

"I haven't liked it since they broke up" Zyl continued.

Ellina seemed silent not to hear Zyl's words.

Zyl frowned and glanced at Ellina.

"You don't want to know why I don't like it and why they broke up?" ask Zyl.

Ellina smiled knot.

"For what? It's just the past, isn't it?"

"Yes, it's true! But.. Ah already! It's not important to talk about it anyway. It's better that I take you home now, because I still have other business outside." Zyl explained.

"Then let me down here, Zyl. I'll go to my best friend's place to give him an invitation." said Ellina.

"What's your best friend far from here?"

"Lumayan. I'll continue my journey by taxi."

"Ck! How could I let you take a taxi by myself?! You're pregnant. I don't want anything bad to happen to you or my niece-to-be. So I'd better take you to your destination." Zyl said.

Ellina smiled faintly. He did not dispute the words of his sister-in-law. Because he knew what Zyl was doing just to keep her safe.

"Alright if you don't mind."

"Of course not."

******

One day before the wedding.

An elite area cafe.

Zean was looking sharply at a woman sitting in front of him with mixed feelings. Angry, disappointed, hate to be one.

Who else would that woman be if not Lyora. Women who once ruled his heart as well as women who also destroyed his dream to build a household.

Several times Zean kicked rough air in front of him trying to neutralize his anger. While both hands are crossed in front of the chest with legs crossed.

"Tell me what you want to say! I don't have much time." said Zean coldly after a long time they fell silent.

Lyora smiled bitterly. For a moment his memory returned to the past where Zean had always been warm to him. But now...

"I heard you're getting married tomorrow. Really true?" lyora asked after gathering her courage to ask.

Hearing the question from the ex-lover, Zean seemed to be smiling cynically.

"So just because of this you came to my office and begged to meet?"

"Zean."

"Yes, I'm getting married tomorrow! Wh why? You want to congratulate me? If you'd like, you can also come to my wedding. I'd be happy to introduce you to my future wife!"

Lyora's chest grew increasingly claustrophobic.

"Do you love that girl?"

"Do I need to answer?!"

"No need! I'm sure you don't love her. You were forced to accept this match just to take your heartache away from me, weren't you? Look Zean, I'm just as hurt as you are. Had your grandfather not done that dirty thing, maybe our relationship wouldn't have ended like this."

Deg.

Zean is shocked to hear Lyora's words. He immediately lowered his legs and leaned forward while looking at the woman sharply.

"What do you mean?! How dare you tell my grandfather to do something dirty?!" ask Zean with a hardened jaw.

"Obviously our relationship ended because of the betrayal you committed on me. Did you forget that you slept with that jerk behind my back?!" sizzle Zean. There was a flash of anger in his hazel.

With teary eyes Lyora tried to touch Zean's arm, but as fast as lightning Zean brushed the hand away and pulled her body back.

"I've never betrayed you, Zean! Never does. Just so you know, all the trouble that's going on between us is all because of your grandfather. Your grandfather paid Devan to set me up. He wants to separate us Zean. And they succeeded... They made you leave me. Look Zean, you have to trust me. All this time your grandfather just pretended to be nice and bless our relationship when in fact it wasn't. She never liked me because of my background that wasn't worth it to you." Lyora explained at length.

But Zean did not believe Lyora's words.

"You're aware of what you're saying Lyora? You've been accusing someone who's been very kind to you. Can you give me proof that my grandfather did something as dirty as you're accusing him of?" challenge Zean.

"Evidence?"

"Yes, evidence. Can you give me proof of your accusation? If you have proof then I'll trust you."

"Zean, I don't have any proof, because I didn't have time to record ..."

"Then everything you say is bullshit! How dare you accuse my grandfather of doing dirty things, while you yourself are doing dirty and low things." hardik Zean.

"This Zean is not bullshit!"

"Enough Lyora! Don't let me humiliate you in public." Zean grumbled as he gripped Lyora's arm so tightly that she grimaced in pain.

"Your time is up. I warned you never to come to see me again because I was fed up with you. And one thing you need to know, the woman I'm going to marry is the woman of my own choice so I don't feel pressured by this marriage at all. On the contrary, I feel very happy to get it. So throw away your rotten plans to derail our marriage, otherwise I will teach you a lesson you will never forget! Understood?!"

Zean violently flung Lyora's arm and immediately got up from her seat.

And without much talk he rushed away from the cafe.

"You'll regret your decision, Zean. You will regret it." Lyora cried tears.
