The next day ...At around 4:00 pm, Elena finished visiting a place with Stefania and several people from the company she worked with. after that she and her assistant stopped at her favorite cafe, and met her best friend named Sheryl."So you're just here with her?" asked Sheryl while glancing at Stefania who sat quietly playing with her cell phone."Yeah, my husband is busy at work so he can't keep me company," Elena answered casually, while her hand was stirring the drink in front of her using a white pipette."I saw the breaking news yesterday... I was so shocked," Sheryl muttered. "How can you act so recklessly? You go to a bar alone without thinking you're famous, you could be targeted by the paparazzi or fans who aren't nice...""I don't know, I was dizzy yesterday," Elena said languidly."What happened?" Sherly asked."Turns out he's back close with her ex-girlfriend again... He even found her a job," Elena answered languidly, remembering the time Ray was in the study with Joe
"Why are you taking so long in the toilet?" Sheryl asked."I have a stomach ache," Elena answered curtly. "What do you think I'm doing?" she asked."I thought you met Oskar," Sheryl replied with a suspicious look. “He went straight to the toilet the moment after you also went to the toilet….I thought he met you," she continued, glancing around the deserted surroundings.Elena was silent swallowing her saliva, trying to stay calm even though she was a bit nervous because Sheryl suspected her.“Do you think I'm crazy? I couldn't possibly meet him here….this is the women's restroom and besides I met him in front of you earlier," she said, immediately inviting Sheryl to walk out of the toilet by embracing her from the side. "Now we better go back," she continued.Sheryl was forced to walk because Elena seemed to push her, forcing her to leave the toilet immediately. For some reason she felt something was wrong, she occasionally looked back and saw that the toilet door that had been used b
When they arrived at the hotel, Elena rested by lying on the bed while talking with Ray via telephone. Like it or not, she had to answer her husband's call because she didn't want her husband to be angry and prejudiced."Don't you want to go to your parent's house?" Ray asked from the phone."Maybe tomorrow," Elena said briefly, lying down staring at the ceiling, and groping her lips, which were again kissed by Oskar after several months of not feeling it, she didn't even expect to be kissed again."Today I am so busy and maybe I will work overtime," said Ray."Then just continue with your work... I want to sleep," Elena called out languidly."Are you avoiding me?"Elena frowned. "Why do you ask such a thing? I'm just saying for you to continue your work so that it's finished fastly and I also need to rest because from morning to noon I'm busy with my business here!""Baby... Why are you so angry?" asked Ray sounding sad."Because you accuse me of being reckless... you said I was avoi
Elena let go of Oskar's embrace, then wiped away her tears."I have to go back to my room," she said."Give me a chance, Elena," asked Oskar with a pleading look, feeling hurt seeing Elena who was always faced with disappointments and dilemmas."We can't right now," Elena said resignedly, looking at Oskar who she loved so much. "Too many people will be hurt if we get back together now."“Does that mean we can get back together someday? Getting back together officially….publicize our relationship like we used to?" Oskar wondered hopefully."I don't know ...""Listen to me," said Oskar as he took Elena's hand and held it. "I know you're not ready to come back to me because you don't want to hurt Ray or Sarah..but we have the right to be happy together... And from now on we can even go back to how we used to be, but... in secret," he continued."You mean... We're having an affair?" Elena confirmed."No, we're not having an affair," Oskar said, shaking his head. ."We have the right to be
In the morning, at 8 to be exact, Sarah had woken up earlier than Oskar. The woman put breakfast on the table near the bed, then put a small box beside it. After that, she tried to wake up her husband."Honey.., wake up...It's already eight o'clock," she said patiently."Hmmm..."Oskar exhaled roughly, still closing his eyes because he was still lazy to get up. The man who was only wearing shorts and a blanket turned his back on his wife and went back to sleep."I've brought breakfast for you, and I have something... It's kind of a surprise," Sarah said, stroking Oskar's shoulder.Oskar frowned, hearing Sarah's words because he couldn't sleep anymore now. He lay back down and glanced at his wife."What surprise?" he asked flatly.Sarah took the small box from the table and gave it to Oskar. The woman wearing a blue dress looked at her husband expectantly, hoping that he would like the gift she gave her.With a frown, Oskar opened the small white box with a red bow. He saw an object th
At 9 am, Elena was having breakfast with Stefania at a restaurant in the hotel where she was staying. The woman had breakfast without enthusiasm because she missed Oskar who had not given her a sweet message this morning, even since last night. She took her cell phone from the table and saw that there were no incoming messages or calls from Oskar or Ray.'this feels like I have two men but they don't care about me at all,' she thought irritably. 'Why hasn't Ray messaged me since yesterday? could he be angry?'Stefania ate pancakes and then glanced at Elena who was looking at her cell phone with an annoyed look."Why don't you continue with breakfast?" she asked."I'm just not in the mood," Elena replied, putting her phone back down. "I don't know what Ray is doing... yesterday when I was about to leave he whined like he didn't want me to go. But now when I'm away from him, then I ask him to understand that I need time to rest, he doesn't even want to contact me anymore," she continued
At 7 pm, Stefania was getting ready because she was going out to enjoy the atmosphere of New York City. The girl was wearing Elena's dress which was a maroon suit combined with a black coat and maroon head covering."Wow, this dress fits me," she said while looking at herself in the mirror."If you like it, it's for you," said Elena, he was sitting casually on the edge of the bed playing with her cell phone."Okay, I'll accept this, even though it's a used dress, the price must be very expensive," Stefania said with a smile of joy then turned to Elena. "Are you sure you don't want to come with me?" she asked."No," Elena snapped languidly. "I'll stay here to rest...I'm sure Ray will call me... We'll be chatting for a long time," she continued."Ah, yes. He must have missed you a lot.""I miss him too," Elena said whether she was lying or not because she already had plans with Oskar and Gerry.Stefania immediately took her black branded bag that was on the bed, then put on black heels.
When after several hours of enjoying time together with intimacy but not making love, finally Oskar takes Elena back to the hotel with Carlos. The man glanced at his ex-girlfriend who was taking off her seatbelt, then took her hand and looked at her with a meaningful look."I will miss you," he said.Elena smiled resolutely then embraced Oskar while looking at his face. "I will also miss you too. I am really happy tonight, I will miss nights like this with you," she said."Is it possible we could be like this again?" asked Oskar, remembering Elena living in San Francisco."We'll always be like this when I'm in New York. Gerry will help us right?"Oscar nodded. "But I hope, soon you can decide for our future.""I'll think about it," Elena said, then kissed Oskar on the cheek. "I'll call you when I get the chance," she continued."Okay... I love you," Oskar whispered."I love you more," Elena said, then kissed Oskar on the lips for a moment. after that, she immediately got out of the ca
