Ellina was stunned to hear Zean's ambiguous speech.
The two of them still stared at each other inside. Until finally Ellina opened her voice after removing her seat belt.
"Sorry, honestly I still don't understand what you mean. If you ask me to forget all your mistakes before we get married, I'll try because you've been nice to me lately."
"But...For your line that says if you want to start all over and don't want a third person among us, can you make it clear?"
"I love you Ellina."
The three words were successful in making Ellina freeze. He looked at Zean in surprise.
"I just realized how I felt when we were together. That's why I want to start everything from scratch. We can build our little family. Me, you and our future son."
Ellina was silent, digesting. It was so sudden for him.
"Zean, do you realize what you just said?"
"Yes, I'm so aware of Ellina!" Zean pulled Ellina in one hand, took her in a warm kiss and stared at the brown bead.
"Listen to me again. I love you Ellina!" zean said firmly.
Ellina's eyes were glazed over.
"Th-this isn't a dream, is it? You're.. You love me?!" ask Ellina to make sure.
Zean smiled. He nodded his head in response.
"It's not a dream. I really love you!"
Ellina's heart was pounding. He's trying to find lies in Zean's eyes. But there is only honesty.
"If this isn't a dream, can I say something?" ask Ellina.
"certain."
Ellina took a deep breath before she finally said later.
"I.. I love you, too, Zean!" said Ellina with trembling lips.
Zean was both surprised and happy.
"really?"
Ellina nodded her head.
"Yes, I love you!" repeat Ellina while hugging Zean's body. Now he is crying on the man's shoulder.
Zean's smile suddenly expanded. He returned Ellina's embrace tightly.
"Thank you Ellina. Thank you for giving me a chance and loving me." exclaimed Zean as she kissed Ellina's head in tears.
"From this moment on I promise to be by your side at all times. I will be a good husband to you and a responsible father to our future son! I promise you!" zean said solemnly.
Ellina who was moved to hear her husband's words was speechless. After being content to reveal the taste, Zean took off their embrace and wiped away Ellina's tears.
"It's late, let's go home!" bring Zean.
Ellina nodded and reassembled her seat belt.
But when Zean was just about to run his car he remembered something. He looked at Ellina.
"Ellina."
"Yes?!"
"You want to promise me?"
"What?"
"Please promise not to betray me or play behind my back. If you get bored of me you can tell me straight away. I will not be selfish in forcing you to stay by my side while your heart is no longer for me. I'm saying this because I hate betrayal. I'd rather you be honest about how you feel. I'll appreciate it and let you go even if it hurts. Youunderstand?"
Ellina remained silent.
Zean's words immediately reminded her of Zyl who had told her about Lyora, her husband's ex-lover to her.
If Zean has ever betrayed Lyora, then the meeting with the man occurred when Zean was heartbroken right?
And that means he is just an impingement.
It is a bit crowded if you remember past events.
But for Ellina the most important thing is now that Zean and Lyora's relationship is over. And now she and Zean love each other. It was a fate that he had to accept.
Ellina nodded as she extended her little finger before Zean. Then he smiled.
"I promise you, I will never betray you!"
Zean smiled as he linked his pinky to Ellina.
"One more thing!"
"What?"
"You have to promise not to be friends with just any man! Moreover, that man was a stranger! I don't like it!"
Ellina put on a smile. His memory immediately glared at Devan's figure.
"Are you jealous of Kenzi's uncle?" ask Ellina.
"Can you not ask?! You just have to promise!" firmly Zean. He feels prestige if he has to say 'yes I'm jealous'.
Clearly Ellina laughed at Zean's annoyed expression mixed with prestige.
"alright. I promise I won't carelessly befriend a foreign man! Including Uncle Kenzi. You satisfied?!"
"But you also have to promise not to be friends with just any woman! Remember you already have a wife and will be a father!" Ellina gave a warning.
Zean laughs.
"You calm down, baby! I won't be tempted by any woman. I'm not Darren who likes to spread charm and likes to change partners. To me you are the last!"
Ellina's face blushed hearing that. But he tried to hide his feelings.
"promise!" ellina's Word.
"Okay Queen! I promise!"
*****
Two weeks later.
Almost every second of happiness enveloped Zean and Ellina.
The more the two get better. It is true that the saying goes, if love grows because it is used to being together.
"Darling! What are you doing?" Zean approached Ellina who was struggling in the kitchen.
Hugged her from behind by wrapping her hands around Ellina's waist to the front of her belly. Then dropped her head on Ellina's shoulders and inhaled her intoxicating scent.
"I'm preparing the cooking, baby! Isn't this afternoon we're going on a city outing?" ellina replied reminding.
Zean was silent for a moment.
"Hmm.honey! Pardon me! What if we postpone the outing first? I think I'm going to be very busy today. I have to hold a meeting to evaluate the performance of the divisions in the company to ensure that everything is in line with the company's vision and goals every month. I hope you don't mind, hm?"
Ellina stopped her activities.
He put the vegetables in his hand on the kitchen table and he turned around until now his gaze and Zean met each other.
Zean could see the sadness and disappointment in his heart.
"Didn't you promise to be with me all the time? I don't even ask you outings every day. I'm just asking for today. Accompany me! That's not even us leaving from the morning. And you still can't?" lamented Ellina.
His tears were about to push out. I don't know why lately the mood is very easy to change.
Sometimes he feels happy, upset, sad suddenly for no reason.
Zean until dizzy made. But he tried to understand the situation. Given that currently Ellina is pregnant with their baby.
"Hey! Why are you crying?!" Zean cupped Ellina's face and removed the clear twirl that had just come out soaking the woman's cheeks with her thumb.
"You didn't keep your promise, Zean!" lirih Ellina's.
Zean breathed a heavy breath. Then took Ellina into his arms. He leaned on his chest and gently rubbed his head slowly.
"All right! This afternoon we're going on a sightseeing trip, hm?! Don't cry!"
"No need! You must have had to!" ellina said as she pulled her head away from Zean.
"Who said?!" Zean put Ellina's head back in his arms.
"I don't feel compelled at all, baby! For the sake of you and our children, I will do anything! Just so you promise not to cry again, hm?!"
In Zean's arms, Ellina smiled. He really felt loved.
"Yes, I promise! Thanks baby!"
Ellina returned Zean's embrace. He put his hand on the man's waist. It feels very comfortable.
******
Zean promises to catch Ellina in town as soon as she finishes her work.
At first he wanted to pick Ellina up directly at the apartment but Ellina refused, arguing that she did not want to waste time.
Because the distance from their apartment to the City Park was quite far than the distance from the Zean office which was closer.
And finally inevitably despite the heavy heart, Zean allowed Ellina to go alone using a taxi.
At 4pm Ellina was already in the park. He sat on the bench that was prepared.
Ellina put a basket filled with food that she brought from the apartment next to her, for later the food she ate with Zean.
Fifteen minutes passed.
Ellina had been telling Zean since he arrived and Zean promised to come in about 20 minutes.
While waiting, Ellina was suddenly startled by the sound of a child calling her name from afar.
"Elinaaa County!"
Ellina looked to the side. He gasped as he saw who was calling him.
"Kenzi?!"
Ellina moved from her seat. He looked at Kenzi who was running towards him and Devan who was following the steps of the little boy from behind.
Oh my God why are they here?! What if Zean sees it?!
Deg.
