The Temptation of the Former

The Temptation of the Former
Kevin Sick?



Now Jihan is in one of the toilet cubicles. He really can't stand having to linger at the party venue. Witnessing the intimacy between Johan and Vita in front of everyone would only make her hurt.


Jihan sat on a closed toilet. He wiped his tears many times, he had been there since, wanted to come out but his tears would not stop flowing, he finally decided to calm down first.


~


Meanwhile at the party location, Johan was accompanying his father to entertain one of the important guests along with his mother, Vita and both of Vita's parents. Of course Vita kept clinging to him, If not in this place, maybe Johan had gone berserk because the pertunagan announcement really made him angry and disappointed.


Johan never thought if his father and mother planned this engagement behind him without telling Johan first. Anxiety increasingly becomes when this announcement is made in public and of course in front of Jihan.


Wanting Johan to run away from the place now, looking for the whereabouts of Jihan, he was completely covered in a very self-torturing anxiety, after the announcement was over, he saw Jihan leave his place, and he was completely overwhelmed with anxiety, wanting to chase, but Vita held back her steps.


"You can never run from me" whispered Vita in Johan's ear.


"In your dreams" whispered Johan back


Vita glared annoyed, he again sipped his drink until it ran out. Johan just kept quiet without saying anything, even when his father was busy chatting with his business partner, Johan just kept quiet without chiming in.


Johan came back to his own mind, he really couldn't stand it anymore, wanting to get out of the place immediately. And in the end Johan stood up from his position, all eyes were on him, let alone his father, who was staring at Johan, as if waiting for an answer.


"I'm sorry, everyone, I want to go to the toilet for a while" said Johan, who was standing from his seat.


"Yes, go" said Toni.


Johan moved his legs quickly, while Vita looked at Johan's departure with eyes that were difficult to understand, Vita seemed to know where Johan was going.


Johan returned to the location of the party, the party tonight is really very lively, the more the night gets excited with the presence of a DJ who adds to the festive atmosphere.


Johan tries to find the whereabouts of Jihan from the crowd. But Johan did not also come to find the truth of Jihan. he was really getting panicked, he wanted to explain everything but Jihan did not seem to give him a chance.


~~


Jehan came out of the toilet cubicle, he saw his face from the mirror that already looked damp because it was too much crying. his makeup was messy, he could not go back to the party place if it was like this.


When stepping out of the toilet, Jihan was shocked because Malik was already at the door, he was really embarrassed to face Malik with this condition.


"Wanna go home?" ask Malik.


"What," said Jihan to clarify Malik's remarks.


"I know you're not okay, so I'll take you home" Malik said.


"But what about the others, if you take me home?" ask Jihan.


"Look down, I told rendy to book a taxi online, so do you want me to drive home?" ask Malik.


"Alright," Jihan said as she lowered her gaze, she was really embarrassed Malik saw her condition like this. Especially as Malik already knew if Jihan had just cried because of Johan.


Jihan walked hand in hand with Malik, without saying anything. Malik glanced at Jihan, he could see the look on Jihan's face was so moody. After the announcement, Malik saw Jihan leaving the party location, and soon followed Jihan. But he had not called, Jihan had gone into the toilet.


From outside the door Malik could hear Jihan's sobs sounding softly. Malik leaned his body against the wall, his heart so sore when he saw the woman he loved loving others. But it hurts even more when he hears Jehan's sobs from being hurt by someone he loves.


Malik rubbed his face violently, it turns out that love and love are not always in tandem, there are times when love claps one hand. Long Malik wait until when there are other women who want to go into the toilet, Malik forbid the women on the grounds that the toilet is being repaired.

Malik and Jihan arrive at the parking lot. Just now Jihan was about to get into Malik's car, but the sound of someone shouting from behind, stopped the movement of Jihan's hand that was about to open the car door.


"Damn!" Johan.


Johan approaches Jihan who is standing next to Malik. Malik really doesn't like this kind of situation.


"Jihan, come with me. We need to talk" Johan said, pulling Jihan's hand.


With a quick movement, Jihan released Johan's hand from her hand, "Take it off, I don't want to talk to you right now" Jihan said.


"Please give me a chance to talk" Johan said.


Johan was about to withdraw Jihan's hand, but Malik quickly prevented that.


"Don't force him if he doesn't want to" said Malik, who was visibly upset.


"It's none of your business, get out of the way." Johan shifts Malik to the side, but Malik pulls Johan's hand back away from Jihan.


"Now his business is my business too! I love him and I don't want to see him suffer just because of someone like you" said Malik who was carried away by emotions, even he had lost his respect for his older cousin.


Malik opens the door, and quickly leads Jihan into the car, and she immediately enters after Jihan.


Johan pushed around the glass window where Jihan was, "Jihan I beg you, we need to talk for a moment" Johan said as he pushed through the windshield.


Seeing that Johan did not want to give up, Malik immediately, turned on the engine of the car and immediately gasp left the parking lot of the car.


Johan clutched his hair tightly in frustration.he kicked into the air to vent his frustration. Johan recalled the words Jihan had always said to him, as she asked Jihan to come back to him.


He just realized if the thing Jihan meant was her engagement and Vita.


~


In Malik's car, Jihan was silent while staring out the car window, contemplating a fate that had always been unfriendly to her. If he doesn't see Johan again, he'll probably be fine.


If his heart hadn't been racing when Johan touched it he might have been fine. Jihan grumbles herself for being too late in past memories so that the feeling arises again, again wanting Johan again.


But like pungguk longing for the moon, Johan is a moon that he can not reach even though he is always faithful to give his light.


A moment later Jihan looked to her side. Malik was focusing on driving without making a sound. It's like understanding if Jihan doesn't want to talk. But the curiosity overcame Jihan not when Malik was like knowing his relationship with Johan.


"Do you know all about me and Jo's sister?" ask Jihan at the end.


"Yes .. I'm sorry but a while ago, I heard your conversation on the roof" replied Malik who was still focusing on driving.


"Our relationship is too complicated, both past and present .. Sorry for getting you into this. Even you have to fight like that with your own cousin," said Jihan Lirih.


"No need to apologize, this has become my risk for loving a woman whose heart already belongs to someone else" Malik said.


Jihan couldn't say anything more, she really felt bad for Malik.


He did not want to give any hope, because it would only make Malik more sick later.


Jihan looked back at the window, not sure what she was going to face tomorrow. But he was grateful for this moment, his heart had begun to calm down, because it did not struggle with the situation.


I don't know when Jihan will be shackled by her first love. God has only destined him to love one man for the rest of his life. It is still the creator's secret.


"If I'm destined to fall in love once in my life, I beg you Lord, give me a happy ending" said Jihan.
