Two cups of tea are now on the guest table to accompany the conversation between a daughter and her biological father.Lilyana, who is calmer now, can speak fluently unlike before, who kept holding back her sobs."I ... I feel that I still love him, but he is acting mean to me," said Lilyana, who had been lowering her head."I also want you to improve your relationship with him, Lily, don't break up the relationship between the two of you.""But I'm already hurt, Dad.""Remember how long you two have been together, Lily. Remember how you two fought to get to where you are today."Lilyana was silent absorbing her father's words. She recalled the moment of togetherness which was full of love after all this time only Ed Shane's mistakes kept ringing in her head."I've seen a sentence that says, if your skin hurts because of your long nails, then cut the nails, not the hands. The same goes with relationships, Lily. If there's a problem in the relationship, then cut the problem, not the re
The tissue that was not far on the table was immediately grabbed by Ed Shane. The man threw back the food that was already in his mouth.His eyes closed feeling a great salty taste as if he was now stinging his tongue. He immediately took water and gulped it down in large quantities.Ivy noticed this clearly. Even the woman also brought a glass of water closer to her affair."What's good, Ivy?! It's too salty, try eating it yourself," said Ed Shane, who then shifted the box that was close to her.The woman took a piece of chicken katsu and ate it. One second, two seconds, three seconds until finally several seconds passed but there was no sign that Ivy felt the same way."It's really delicious, just right, not salty," said Ivy, who had finished eating a piece of the food.Sensing that there might be undissolved salt in one of the dishes, Ivy went back to eating another piece which she took later.Again, the taste of the chicken katsu that she tasted was very good, with the right taste
In his car, Ed Shane's eyes could not focus to keep looking at the street he was going to pass. He looked right and left, maybe he found Ivy after he lost her at a red light stop.His hands hit the steering wheel in frustration. He shouldn't have done this. It seems he broke his promise this time, even after he found out that the woman he was having an affair with was now pregnant.Eleven months ago, a female employee looked so diligent. Even though it was already nine in the evening, she was still in the restaurant and was seen wiping the table in the kitchen.Ed Shane, who thought that if there was no one in his restaurant anymore, intended to turn off the lights, but how surprised he was when he saw a woman who was in the kitchen and seemed to be still working."You ...." Before he could finish his sentence, the girl turned around.It seemed that the woman was also surprised by the presence of Ed Shane, who was suddenly alone in the kitchen with her.But even more surprised was Ed
Lilyana frowned after hearing Gladwin's answer. She didn't quite understand why it was Chris who came instead of Lucy.Without saying anything else, Lilyana immediately stepped away from the room. In the living room of the house sat a man as Gladwin had said."Chris, why are you here?"Lilyana walked closer to where the man was.Finding Lilyana already near him, the man immediately corrected his sitting position even though he was not in the wrong position."I have something to talk to you about, Lily." Chris said after the girl with ponytails sat down on the sofa right in front of him."What do you want to talk about, Chris?"Along with the question that came out of Lilyana's mouth, Chris found Gladwin who also came to the living room. This made Chris feel a little uncomfortable."Hm, can we talk outside?" asked Chris asking for it with a little discomfort.He immediately felt relieved when he saw Lilyana who nodded her head in agreement with his words. The woman also rose from her s
Night came and according to what Lilyana had planned, everything went smoothly. Before dinner time came, Ed Shane was home."Here's the towel, take a shower to make you fresher," said Lilyana with a gentle smile.This of course made Ed Shane feel a little awkward. There was something strange about his wife, Lilyana didn't seem the least bit angry with him."O--okay," said Ed Shane, who then entered the bathroom.He saw bottles of shampoo and soap that were still full as if they had just been replaced. The water heater in the bathroom is also on.Five minutes after cleaning himself, Ed Shane was stunned when he came out of the bathroom.His body, which was still wrapped in a thick white towel, walked closer to the side of the bed with a set of casual clothes already on it."Lily prepared this for me?" asked Ed Shane softly as he turned towards the closed bedroom door.He recalled some time ago, months ago when his wife was always serving him.Everything changed after Lilyana became pre
"I didn't decide for that, but he wanted it himself, Dad.""But you should have tried to stop him, Lily.""But I think it's useless, Dad." Lilyana said, wiping away the tears that kept flowing down her cheeks. "Even though Ed and I might eventually get back together, it just doesn't feel the same anymore."One thing was realized by the woman whose heart was now broken into pieces like a flower vase that breaks after being dropped by someone. Things that were originally beautiful are now scattered on the floor. Even if someone apologizes and tries to correct the mistake, the vase will not return to the way it was before, which looks so perfect.Likewise with Lilyana's heart and love for Ed Shane. The love that was originally beautiful and full of happiness was destroyed so badly."But I want you to be able to continue together until you are old." Gladwin said as he lowered his head."Then he has to choose me or her, I don't want Ivy to become a second wife."After hearing that answer,
Ed Shane's hand that was trying to caress Lilyana's body was immediately thrown away by the woman. She didn't want to get the slightest touch from her husband who had betrayed her.Her body came out from blanket she was hiding. Now they both stare at each other."Get out now Ed, get out!" shouted Lilyana while pointing towards the bedroom door.The two bloodshot eyes opened wide as the muscles in its neck tensed."What is it that keeps me here, Lily?" asked Ed Shane, who was trying to stay close to his wife."Choose me or her now!"Ed Shane was silent for a few moments. He really didn't know which decision to make. Now his love is no longer intact, now the love in his heart has been divided for two different people."I ... I can't, Lily."A pillow that was close to her was grabbed immediately. Lilyana tried to drive Ed Shane out of her room."Go, get out of here now, Ed. Go!!!"The man tried to avoid every blow made by his wife with the help of the pillow. Although in the end he was b
Their eyes met and stared at each other for a few seconds. Ed Shane was unable to see his mistress, who looked so sad, immediately hugged the woman."No, there's nothing wrong with you, Ivy. I'm just a little busier today you know?"It didn't take long for the hug to stretch again. Ed Shane held his lover's arms and looked at her sad face with wet eyes."You don't need to worry, nothing has changed from me to you and you haven't done anything wrong either.""You still love me right?" asked Ivy while holding back her sobs."Sure." Ed Shane answered quickly. "Of course I still love you, Ivy. Until then.""Promise not to leave me.""Promise."The two of them then linked their pinkies together, making promises to one another not to leave each other."But now I have to go to deliver the food, Honey."Ivy, who was calmer this time, finally nodded her head. "Okay, be careful.""Of course, you also take care of yourself and our baby."A smile appeared on both of their faces, accompanying the
