"Did you know? Vincent's back from America."
Alvin stared at Olivia's back, which was standing by the window overlooking the garden next to his house. Olivia saw Cloe playing with Alvin's mother.
"really?" Olivia flipped her body to face Alvin with a big smile.
"He's back with Jesica."
When she heard Alvin's last words, Olivia immediately fell down the glass containing orange juice in her hand unconsciously. It was seen that Olivia was very surprised to hear the news that Alvin had just delivered.
"Sorry Vin I accidentally dropped it." Olivia hurriedly crouched down and picked up the broken glass that was scattering on the floor.
"Liv, let...."
"Aawww." Olivia whimpered as she felt a sharp object piercing her ring finger.
"Are you okay?" Alvin approached Olivia, bowed and examined her bleeding hand.
"I'm fine" Olivia replied, shaking her head slowly.
"Let aunt Ran clean it up."
Alvin invites Olivia to sit in a relaxing room not far from where Olivia is standing. When Alvin wanted to treat her, Olivia refused because she thought it was just a small wound.
"Drink."
Alvin gave Olivia water that he had just taken from the kitchen and was immediately greeted by Olivia while saying thank you. After seeing Olivia put the glass on the table, Alvin looked at Olivia carefully.
"Liv, can't you forget that?" alvin asked carefully when he saw the change in Olivia's face that became moody.
During these 5 months, Olivia always convinced Alvin that she had forgotten Vincent. Even Olivia forbids Alvin from discussing Vincent again.
"I. i...." Olivia looked down with a grim face.
After they officially separated, Vincent went to America for treatment at one of the best hospitals there. His phone was off and there was no information about him other than he went to America for treatment. Alvin's info can be hard-won. The Wijaya family closed a meeting on Vincent.
Alvin had just received information from one of his confidants that Vincent had returned to Indonesia with Jesica a month ago, but no one knew about it. After Vincent's departure to the land of Uncle Sam, Jesica also suddenly disappeared without news and now Alvin knows that it turns out that all this time Jesica along with Vincent
"I can help you if you want to see him" Alvin bargained.
She knew that deep down, Olivia missed Vincent so much, only she was always trying to cover it up.
"No. I promised not to show up in front of her again" Olivia refused.
Where could he possibly renege on the promise he had made before, it would be tantamount to licking his own saliva.
"You're still afraid of her mother?"
"I'm not afraid, it's just, I think what his mother said is true, since knowing me, Vincent has always been in trouble and has almost wiped his life 2 times because of me. I don't want anything else to happen to him so I'd better stay away from him."
"Liv, it's not your fault."
"But I'm in it. After all, I couldn't bear to see Vincent suffer with me. His life would be better off without me."
"That's just you think, what if it's not like that?"
Seeing Olivia speechless, Alvin said again, "This week there will be a wedding of cousins Frans and Vincent will come to the event."
Olivia straightened her head hearing that.
"I can take you to the party if you want to see it" Alvin bargained.
It just so happens that Alvin gets an invitation so Olivia can be his companion to get into the party.
"I can't go." Olivia looked back with a sad face.
"What are you afraid of?"
Vincent must have hated him so much by now. He left Vincent when he needed him.
"You should be ready for that. You have chosen this path, sooner or later, you will meet, just wait for the time."
Olivia knows that too. It's just that, at this time he has not been able to accept Vincent's hatred after breaking his heart at that time.
"Rethink my offer. Let me know if you want to come with me to the party."
*******
Alvin stops his car when he sees Olivia and Nesya standing in front of the lobby. He lowers the windshield and asks Olivia and Nesya to get in his car.
"Actually I can take the bus by myself, there's no need to go with you guys."
During these 5 months Olivia returned to live in Nesya's apartment because her aunt was not willing to accept her. Every day Alvin would pick up Olivia and Nesya.
"You work in the same office, why leave separately?" alvin said, "and again, where I let my beloved savior take the bus alone."
"Vin, stop saying that. Nesya will think that we are indeed in a relationship" Olivia scolded.
Alvin smiled as he turned to Olivia for a moment. "Didn't you deliberately approach me to make Vincent believe that you really love me?"
"Vin, you better shut up and just focus on the street in front of you or we're gonna be fucked."
*******
Three days after learning of the news of Vincent's return, Olivia invites Nesya to go to the mall because she wants to buy something. Other than something he wanted to buy, he also wanted to refresh his mind. News of Vincent's return indirectly affected him. Olivia who had been looking fine immediately turned into more silence.
"Nesya, I go to the toilet first."
After seeing the nod of her best friend, Olivia stepped towards the toilet in quick steps. While going through a Japanese restaurant, he accidentally saw someone who had been on his mind. That man is Vincent and the man behind him is Edric.
Olivia immediately stopped her steps and looked at Vincent who was walking towards her. Vincent's face looked very flat, his gaze straight ahead, he stepped firmly with full confidence. His face was more handsome than the last time they met. Olivia is glued to the spot and continues to stare at Vincent until they cross paths.
Olivia seemed surprised when Vincent just went through it without reprimanding or glancing at him. Vincent treats Olivia like an invisible creature. Only Edric had a glance at him and that was only through the tail of his eyes. Olivia could feel a cold aura as Vincent passed by earlier.
After being silent for a few seconds, Olivia finally turned her body and looked at the back of Vincent who had moved away. The pain in his chest slowly spread throughout his body. This was beyond his expectations, he thought Vincent would get angry or put out some scathing words to reply, but he didn't. Vincent's indifference was a blow to Olivia.
"Liv, what are you doing here?"
Nesya approached Olivia who was standing in front of a Japanese restaurant while looking straight ahead. As Nesya followed her gaze, she saw nothing but passers-by.
"Nothing." Olivia smiled and said, "let's go home."
On the way home Olivia is more silent and Nesya realizes there is something strange about her.
"Liv, are you okay?"
Olivia, who had been looking out the window of the taxi, turned to Nesya who seemed to be worried about her.
"I'm fine."
"Have you not forgotten it yet?"
Not understanding the intent of Nesya's question, Olivia frowned.
"I saw Vincent earlier," continued Nesya again when she saw Olivia's confused face.
"Our relationship is over, Nes. There's nothing left between us."
"Then try to open your heart. I see Alvin is a good guy. He's always there for you. Why don't you try a relationship with her again?"
"No Nes. Precisely because he's a good man so I don't deserve him. I'm a bad woman. Others will curse me if I know that I left my future husband when he was poor and unable to walk."
