The Substitute Lover

SIXTEEN

Abila and Jovin are still going on their date. Nichol's family members were discussing how to keep Jovin from kissing the lies they had all planned.

"Dad.., I started to worry about Jovin and Abila's relationship" Johan said.

"why is that, anyway? is there a problem?." said Mr. Nichol.

"i'm afraid Jovin is beginning to suspect Abila, but Abila is very different from Adira."

"have you not found Adira's whereabouts yet?" now Mrs Nichol is speaking.

"yet Mom. I wish that the girl would disappear forever from the face of the earth." - Johan.

"Daddy hopes so too." he said.

"if the girl comes back all will be destroyed as well as Abila's heart" Johan said.

Mr and Mrs Nichol looked at Johan with question marks.

"you mean .... With Abila's heart, what's wrong with that girl? don't tell me she really likes Jovin." guess Mrs Nichol.

Johan nodded his head.

"yes. Mommy's guess is right, Abila is in love with Jovin. And I wouldn't be willing if he got hurt."

Mr. Nichol scooped his face.

"astaga why is everything so complicated? everything will be difficult when it comes to the name of the heart. Han ... Daddy asked you, please take care of Abila if something bad happens to her someday." asked Mr. Nichol.

Johan simply nodded in response.

On the other hand Jovin and Abila are planning a second date. All at Abila's request of course her, so happily Jovin took a leave of absence to not enter the Office tomorrow, as long as they were dating.

"where are we going today? ." asked Jovin while stroking the long hair of a spoiled Abila who was leaning against Jovin's chest.

"anywhere is important I'm always with you." said Abila.

"honey... How about we stay at my family's villa ? just the two." proposed Jovin.

Abela thought a little.

"emm .... What about your work? do Mommy and Daddy not mind?." asked him as soon as the sanctions.

"no one will dare to oppose me." replied Jovin steadily. And finally Abila just nodded in agreement with Jovin's proposal.

"how about tomorrow we go to Villa." asked Jovin, who managed to make Abila's eyeballs wide.

"it's not too soon, you haven't even asked Mommy and Daddy for permission yet."

"faster is better.I can't wait to spend time with you again." whispered Jovin sensual .

"awas... don't dare to mess around." said Abila by pointing her index finger in front of Jovin's face.

Jovin grabs the girl's index finger gently, while tucking her.

"don't be darling.believe in me, I will keep your honor. I promise I won't ruin you before we become a legitimate couple" Jovin assured Abila.

Abila again admired the nature of this young man before her.

You're so different from other lads. I'm sorry if I'm too lazy to love you.

The next day, according to Jovin's plan, they now leave for the Nichol family's private villa. Both of Jovin's parents could only look sadly at the passing of the two of them.

"describe the happiness between the two of them without being based on a lie, surely I will be very lucky to have a daughter-in-law like Abila." murmured Mrs Nichol.

"we leave everything to God, may Jovin and Abila be united."

after his Mr. Nichol grabbed the wife's shoulder and invited her into the Mansion.

A few hours later.

Jovin and Abila had reached the Villa they were heading to.

Abila immediately got out of the car and ran small to the Villa courtyard, she greatly admired the beauty of the building.

"this place is very beautiful, like a dream it feels. "a wide smile does not fade from the lips of the beautiful girl.

"you like her? This villa is just one of dozens of Villas that my family owns." Jovin said, lifting a suitcase from the trunk of his car.

Abila was surprised, it was unthinkable in her brain how rich the young man who held the status as her lover was.

"i don't think you're so rich.." admired Abila.

"there's still a lot you don't know about my dear family.Some day if you're already my wife, I'll tell you all the secrets my family's hiding." jovin said as he dragged both of his large suitcases into the Villa.

Abila's smile faded instantly, she stared fixedly at the young man's back.

If only you knew, we would never be together. I will never be a part of your family.

After they finished cleaning his belongings, Jovin took Abila to a place that became his favorite in the Villa area. The place is just a horse farm that is not too wide, but the view is very beautiful. After all Jovin also misses his favorite stallion whom he named Hercules.

Arriving at that place. Jovin immediately went to a middle-aged man, maybe he could say he was Jovin's confidant to take care of his horses.

Jovin led the stallion that looked so gallant out of the stable.

"let's go up.I will take you for a walk to the field not far from here." pinta Jovin, holding out his hand to grab Abila's hand to ride the brown horse's back.

Abila smiled and received a helping hand from her lover, while riding on the horse's back.

"are you happy?." asked Jovin while tucking her lover's smooth cheeks.

"i'm very happy." replied Abila while staring away the expanse of grass that is so beautiful with its white flowers.

"excuse me, I can bring you here now. You know what ? you were the first girl I brought to this place." said Jovin, who made both of Abila's cheeks flushed. There was a tickling feeling in her heart, which made her want to always smile.

So I'm the first girl he brought here? even Adira had never seen this place. I'm so lucky.

After tired of riding finally Jovin invited Abila to sit under a tree, and tied her stallion on a tree branch not far from where she was sitting.

"honey.see your horse looks so handsome if only he became human" said Abila trying to make her lover smile. But unexpectedly the young man even sulked, making Abila more intense to tease him.

"who's better looking? me or Hercules?." she asked as she looked away pretending to be angry.

"embm...... Hercules." replied Abila as she pinched Jovin's cheek.

Jovin brushed off his girlfriend's hand.

"yes already, dating there with my horse." ketus Jovin certainly just messing around.

"astaga.you're jealous of a horse, funny." Abila laughed out loud.

"honey.wait here ! I want to take the wildflowers." said Jovin, went to pick up the white wildflowers that seemed to spread on the tree trunk.

jovin wilfully arranged the flower into a crown and brought it near Abila.
