Bella nods her head “Yes I can understand what

“Alright, I'll tell you again.”

“Ok, I’ll wait. Byeee”

Ara just came out of the bathroom after cleaning

himself. While Ellard was in kasur— holding her laptop with glasses

read the one perched on his nose. Ara took a step towards the bed

and lie down next to Ellard. Lying sideways towards him. By reason of

the man does not like to be on his back.

Realizing the presence of his wife, Ellard smiled slightly. It

body tightly.

“Sayang”

Ara looked up “Hm”

“You seriously want to join the training?”

Ara nodded “why?”

“Cannot be canceled?” still trying his luck

Ara grabbed Ellard's thick eyebrows and stroked them “Can. If you are

do not want to appear with me in front of the crowd” he was too calm

“Mana can!” ellard's protest didn't like it

“Then I have to do it— there is no other way.

I was determined not to embarrass you any more with my appearance

with you.”

“So I talked to Bella. He wants you to be the one who has to

come to Milan. Because she had a baby while she was a companion to your diet program,

you'll be there for three months. ”

“Terus?”

“Three months baby? Imagine I have to part with you.

“Three months only. Not three years. ” Ara stared at him amusedly

“But I still can't Ara” Ellard's voice a little

Ellard felt Ara's gentle rubbing on her chest, calming down

he began to get emotional.

paused, stopped her swab and stared fixed at her husband's honey chocolate bead

“That color let me go. While there I will study

many things,”

Ellard paused his gaze, then took a rough breath

before looking back at his wife who was waiting for an answer from him. It

giving up, there was no way but to let his wife go. Ara looks already

very good with his decision. Ellard cupped his cheeks, kissing with

soft and warm lips Ara.

“Peach yourself well there. Keep telling me and

hurry back before I myself drag you home ”

All preparations for Ara's departure have been completed

taken care of. Including the splicing of his internship that stayed another month would be

finished, forced to be mutated to her husband's branch company in the

Italy. For a week while in preparation, Ellard was still on her knees

manipulating the various circumstances in order for Ara to undo her intention to leave. However

unfortunately, his wife did not falter at all. It was during the time that was still

left, Ellard continued to buy his wife like a postage stamp. Not at home, not at

office, the man always has every means to be able to make Ara not

linger away from him.

Given all the effort the man had put in, making Ara could only

smacking an amused smile. Suddenly Ellard turned into a very spoiled figure

when with.

“I heard you were going?”

The voice interrupted the movement of Ara who was packing

stuff on his desk. Ara looked at him with a smile. “Ya true Cla”

“Where?”

“You don't think you need to know it” Ara tilting

her head

“Ah is right too. Your departure is no problem for me. Precisely so

good because I can freely get close to El.” start provoking

“You know Cla, I honestly feel sorry for you”

“What do you mean?” his eyes are not like.

“I feel sorry for you. You're beautiful, smart, cook and

many other advantages. I'm sure there are a lot of guys out there who

likes you— chasing you. But here you even act like a cheap woman— chasing

the man who was married and his wife clearly did not have

more feelings for you. If I were you, I'd let go of that man

I love him and let him be happy with his new life. Even if it's not

easy but life must be go on, right? “

Ara paused, staring at the clingy Clarisa bead “Do not make God who has been

gives you a chance to live longer, to be disappointed by obsession

milamu.” The scene was so calm yet piercing.

Clarisa's tongue was instantly mute, she was completely silent. Sided

the body of his hand was clenched. Not stepping on a girl as weak as Ara will say

that sharp.

“Know what you know about my life?” growled Clarisa pressing

his emotions “Since long ago Ellard was mine and forever will be. You are the one who

has taken it from me.” Clarisa Sentak

Ara sighed, not knowing how to do it anymore

just like that. All this time, he would never bother to return a word

The girl Clarisa is obsessed with is her own husband, the man she's been

will definitely release him— just like he did to Leo. But

Clarisa was getting more stubborn.

Ara sighed her scale until she stood right beside Clarisa

which still looks windy. Undoubtedly, he patted the girl on the shoulder.

“Keep trying harder. But sorry, Cla, this time

I won't stay silent. The man who became your obsession was my husband—

mine. I won't let go either. Until we meet again,” he said last time while patting

clarisa's shoulders slowly moved away from there leaving Clarisa

frozen where.

“El, my plane uda wants to take off

loh” warning was umpteenth time, but instead of releasing— his embrace increasingly

crust.

“We're back home. Canoe

Pastor, the husband and wife cannot live far away. Must always be together,”

ellard muttered with his head still immersed in the recess of Ara's neck.

Ara rolled her eyes lazily.

Her husband started again.

“Free three months El. Not long kok”

Ara spoke as softly as possible

“Three months it's a very

long for me. Who will I hug when I sleep? You know I'm hard

sleep if not hug you—roll

my life”

“Kan we can still video call,”

“But still cannot touch

you”

 Ara breathed out softly, she pushed

ellard's large body to give them some distance. He calmly put his jacket down

“I promise this for the first

and the last time we were apart. I'll keep you updated with” once

again Ara tried to give understanding.

Ellard cupped Ara's face, pressing down

thick cheeks “Take care of the eyes and heart, not the lyrics of other men.

Remember status. Once I hear you're close to another man, I'll

drag you home from there,”

Ara chuckles amusedly, “Yang there is me

who should have said that. Kamu—Many beautiful women who adore and continue

poke you even there are those who stick to you at all times. You should be the—“

Ellard kissed Ara's lips so

in, not letting his words finish. Ellard fused their foreheads.

“Listen, I don't care about

they. for me they are nothing. All of them! You're the only one

the most important woman to me. “

“How about Clarisa?” slowly, slowly,

Ara asked

“He's just a friend. I

loving her is like my sister. She was a weak innocent girl, yet she always managed to cover it up

by being cheerful. That's why I always try to protect her,”

Suppose

you know he's not that innocent El, he's obsessed with you…

I really want Ara to voice

that word, but he can't. He has no evidence for

said the girl's veiled intention.

“If I ask for— as long as I don't

here, can you keep your distance with him?”

Ellard frowned, raising

next to his thick eyebrows. “Why? Clarisa's my second secretary. How can—”

“Only request.” cut Ara

fast, “But if you can't do anything” Ara turned her face,

suddenly cramped when he found Ellard

which seemed to disagree with his request.

Silent moment. Ellard was silent,

enjoying the expression of his wife who was not looking at him anymore. Seconds later

he commented a smile when he realized one thing, grabbed back his wife's chin—

looked at.

“Jealous, hm?”

Ara fell silent, and... “If so why?”

Ellard's eyes sparkled, “Wah, sure

I'm just so happy. That means I'm very important to you” Ellard chuckled,

he scrambled Ara's long hair before then re-hugged her and

I kissed the top of his head many times.

“All right my dear if that

your wish. I'm in. I’m totally yours

and you’re mine too”

Ara just nodded haru inside

decapan.  He smiled, feeling warm

it's popping in his heart.  At least

for a while he could leave

Ellard's here with relief.

With Ellard faithfully accompanying Ara

until his wife actually left on his plane to the seven continents

different from himself.

Milan – Italy | 09.15 Pm

It was dark when Ara arrived

the residence of Bella— Milan. She was greeted by Bella and her family

his little. She still looks so pretty even if she wears it

home dress and without wearing makeup.

“Happy you finally got there

here Ara” said Bella while hugging her warmly

“Thanks brother. I'm also very

happy to visit my sister's house,”

“What do you know, since Ellard

they're only bothering me because you haven't been to that point either. Ck, that man is too much

when it comes to you” grumbled Bella

 Ara smiled clumsily, not chiming in.

“Ya we have just went straight to

your room's. You must be tired from Jet Lag”

Ara just nodded small, though,

following Bella's steps, she takes her into a bedroom

it was previously prepared.

“Sorry that this room is not as big

and as comfortable as your magnificent room in Manhattan”

“It's been very convenient brother.

Even my room before marriage was smaller than this. If too

broad will also be very tiring to clean it” explained Ara while

the manic ventured into every corner of the room.

“Whatever your room is, you

clean it? Not waiter?”

“Iya brother. El asked for. He said room

is a very privacy thing”

“The child has not changed

as it turns out,” kekeh Bella “Alright, you should rest immediately. A lot of things

tomorrow we have to do it. Night Ara” says Bella

“Night too kak”

After Bella's departure, Ara

immediately threw his body on the bed. Jet lag makes her body feel tired

and achy. Just now his eyes will be closed but the sound of incoming messages

resuscitate him. He smiled when he saw who sent the message

Mr. Bossy

Darling, honey,

uda? I miss you too much already:(

He did not reply, but immediately

make a video call. And it's not even a second, man

it raised him. Featuring its shirtless athletic body, middle

sit on the head of the bed

“Dear I'm waiting for your call

since then” sungutnya while yawning

“Sorry, I just got there and

open hape” Ara sits herself. Look at her husband's pillow face

looks adorable.

“Not until 24 hours you go,

I've missed you so— did I follow there aja ya” lips

throttle

“Don't be silly El,” Decak Ara however

her lips smiled

“Yes how dong finished, I've

miss sleep cuddling with you. This mattress tastes so cold without you” ouh

Ellard patted the empty side of the bed

“I miss you too El,” one sentence

who was able to stop Ellard's tweet. “Uda first yes, I'm so sleepy. Ye

you should also sleep. Tomorrow we call again”

“Alright my dear. You rest

that's enough. I love you”

Deg

Ara's body seemed to freeze— felt

stilted. I don't know. The last sentence Ellard said made his chest clatter

hard not because. He did not answer yet, the call was over. His finger

without zincajah touch the end icon on

his cellphone. Ara sighed limp— felt lost. But a second later he

smiling widely while hugging a roll of gold. He's happy. For the first time

she heard the sacred words come out of her husband's mouth. But he really is

didn't you hear wrong? Ah, hopefully

just no.

The next morning in Bella's study, Ara is given some instructions regarding

what should he do during the program of self-control, pattern

eat at this place. In the long run Bella has made a list of activities for Ara

every day.

On the list it is mentioned, in one

ara day is only allowed to consume calories with normal limits, around

1.800 kcal. He can eat anything but not mongomsumumikan flour, sugar, and

oil. Breakfast bread wheat two, do not use jam, use low fat cheese with green tea. Eat dry oatmeal, drink green juice (vegetables). Then it was

also should exercise regularly with accompanied by Bella— do

cardio and muscle training.  Besides that, besides,

Bella will also teach him how to look elegant and stunning. From

starting makeup to daily fashion style.

Ara gulped, schedule it

too dense. While he's still finishing his internship here. Could he

did it?

“You ready Ara?” ask Bella

boasting an amused smile as he caught the unconvinced expression of his best friend's wife.

“Se—as much of this?”

“Hm, considering the time you

spend here only three months”

“So sure I can make it

doing all this?” Ara was not sure, her body was limp imagining all that

he will do it later. While during the apprenticeship alone, he had already felt very

tired and hungry every hour. Plus do a control program like this.

Gosh

Lord…

“Successful or not, all

depends how serious you” is

Ara speechless, for a moment

speechless. He has made his decision so far. There's no way he's back

by not bringing results. Well, even though Ellard never sued him for

you can successfully follow this program. For the man, after three months— exists

the result or not, Ara should immediately return to his side.  But Ara had promised herself, too,

this time she had to change in order to be worthy to stand beside her husband. No

humbled again. It's only been three months, right? All right, he's gonna fight.

“Good brother, I sure can”
