Chapter 45

After last night having a serious conversation with Velove, Darwin has been thinking about himself all day. In fact, he was not focused on completing all the work in the office.

Even so when he got home and finished eating dinner, he thought again. Choosing to sit in the study, Darwin recalled while carefully digesting what he and Velove discussed the night before.

"You should know. Since deciding to marry and be your wife, I have resigned and sincere. Even committed to running this marriage as well as possible even though we don't love each other. You need to remember too, Win. No matter what the past you've been through with Vicky, actually I don't care. I'm not a God who deserves to judge your past. After all, I think we live to see the future. Not to drag on with the past. But, unfortunately, even though we've tried to be generous, You don't even try to consider or appreciate me as a wife."

Remembering these words, Darwin immediately rubbed his face in exasperation. I don't know where his brain ignores the figure of a woman who is sincere and doesn't care in the least about all the stupid things she has ever done.

Instead of learning to open his heart and accept, Darwin is even going crazy with openly having an affair.

"Where's your brain, Darwin! What's your heart made of?"

Darwin continued to massage his forehead. Her head is currently filled with all the words Velove told her last night."

"Mr. Darwin."

Reni's call immediately awakened Darwin from his reverie. Turning around, the man found his assistant already standing in the doorway of his office.

"Yes, what's wrong, Ma'am?"

"Mr. Randy is downstairs. He said you met Mr. Darwin, it's very important."

Darwin nodded. Then rose from his seat. The man then followed Reni who walked out, then went down to the first floor.

From a distance, Darwin saw his cousin sitting watching TV. Meanwhile, his mouth seemed engrossed in enjoying the black forest that Velove bought for the household to eat.

"What business do you have here?" asked Darwin then took a seat right next to Randy.

At that moment, Randy looked up. The look in his eyes was clear as if he was annoyed and angry.

"You're such an impudent cousin, aren't you!" he cursed annoyed while pointing right at Darwin's face.

"Insolent what?" asked Darwin confused. Just met, suddenly he has been accused of various things by his cousin. I don't know what problem Randy meant this time.

"You don't have to pretend you've forgotten your memory," Randy chuckled and then returned to spooning the cake into her mouth. "I've willingly accompanied you to look for Velove last night. I've helped call security, called the police too. Eh, instead, you're left alone at the bar! What do you think? How did I get home last night? That's it, there's no guilt at all once. I'm sorry. Don't even say thank you."

Randy grumbled angrily. Nagging with manyun lips in order to shed all the annoyance he might have felt from last night.

Darwin himself could only laugh. He completely forgot that last night he brought Randy to the bar. What he remembered was that as soon as he had finished rescuing Velove, the two of them rushed home without thinking about anything else.

"By God, I forgot last night with you, Ran."

"You insolent cousin! Tomorrow I won't help you anymore."

"Oh my god," Darwin sighed with a chuckle. Currently his cousin's behavior is very similar to that of unstable teenagers. "You don't have to be like a child. Use everything cranky. You'll lose if you get angry with me."

"It's you who will lose," said Randy quickly. "You see, among the Prawira boys, you are the slowest, insensitive, and out of tune like me, Samuel, or even Rama."

Darwin chuckled while tapping Randy's head. Insolent, indeed, his cousin insulted him for being slow and all kinds of things.

Then a few seconds later, Darwin leaned his shoulder on the sofa. Taking a deep breath, the man tried to relax more than before. Yes, although it is undeniable that I still think about all of Velove's words.

"Why do you have a sad face like that? Are you stressed? Are you having a lot of deadlines? Or are you having a lot of problems?" Randy inquired curiously. He was sure something must have happened to his cousin. Especially if his face has been bent or made flat like now. Randy also memorized, when there was a problem, Darwin was usually more silent.

"It's not stressful actually. There aren't a lot of problems. It's just, I'm just confused," Darwin said with a languid look on his face. The man's voice even sounded like a lackluster one.

Randy finished off the remaining blackforest on her plate. Continued drinking the lemon tea that Reni provided, then turned his body so that he was facing Darwin directly. If this is the case, he is ready to interrogate his cousin.

"Confused why again, really?"

"Confused about Velove. He gave me a difficult choice," Darwin said softly.

Rand frowned. Was annoyed when Darwin admitted there was a problem, but instead told him half measures like now. In fact, what is the difficulty in explaining the chronology in a complete and straightforward manner.

"What other options? Can you tell the complete story or not? Don't be half-hearted, especially long-winded?"

Darwin just nodded. Still in a position leaning on the couch, he tried to tell what really happened. Who knows, after sharing the story with Randy, he might come up with a solution.

"Last night, after the incident, Velove told me the truth. Apparently, he hoped that our marriage would continue without a divorce. He also said that there was absolutely no problem with my past. Velove was even willing to start from the beginning of our marriage relationship."

Randy listened carefully to what Darwin had to say. As a brother and family, of course he also wants the best for his cousin. In fact, Samuel herself also had the same hope, so that Darwin would not end his marriage with Velove.

"The problem is, now I'm even worried," Darwin continued. "I'm confused whether to choose Velove or Vicky."

"Gosh, Darwin. You are worried about everything like this," Randy exclaimed in disbelief. In fact, at first glance, everyone would think the same as her, preferring Velove because that woman has everything. I don't know how great Vicky was until Darwin was infatuated and it was hard for him to leave her.

Darwin let out a long sigh. Trying to unravel the tightness that enveloped him. What he was facing right now really made him think. Then, straightening his sitting position, Darwin then looked at Randy while speaking again.

"You can say this because you never know the name of falling in love, Ran."

"Says who?!" Randy argued at that time. From the tone of voice and facial expressions shown, he did not seem to accept being called that.

"How are you, Adriana? You know for sure how much I love her, right? I even defended her in front of Mama so that I was finally able to be in a relationship for quite a while. But, what was the answer in return? She secretly cheated on her ex. Because of this also, I'm becoming seriously lazy to have a relationship with the women out there."

"But, we are different cases, Ran."

"What is the difference?" Randy immediately snatched Darwin's words. "We are both the same. It's just a reverse position. You're already like Adriana who is a cheater. Me and Velove are the victims. And again, I remind you, don't make the wrong decision, Win. Don't make the wrong choice and end up regretting it."

Hearing that sentence, Darwin brought his eyes to stare at Randy fixedly. Paying serious attention to how his cousin gave advice.

"So you're saying I should choose Velove over Vicky?"

Randy growled in annoyance. After a while he was getting annoyed because Darwin still asked stupid questions like that.

"Yes, it's clear, Win. Ask questions too. Try to listen carefully to what I'm saying. I know, you might love Vicky. But, you also need to remember that whose current status is your husband? You both have made a promise before God to build a household. No matter how much you love Vicky, it's still Velove who is currently the most entitled to you. After all, how come you don't have the slightest feeling for Velove? Judging from the attitude and the way you treat Velove, just I'm sure you actually already love and love your wife."

"I'm not sure that's a form of love," Darwin evaded. He seemed to disagree with what Randy said just now.

"If it's not love, why do you have to be angry every time Velove is seen going out with his ex-girlfriend? Why are you even worried that you are even willing to take the risk to find Velove when he goes missing the other day. And don't forget too, Win. Last night you almost got hurt because save him from bad people. If it's not love, then what is it? Mutual cooperation?"

"It's just a form of ----"

"Of what?" cut Randy on purpose. "From a just and civilized sense of humanity? It's just like Pancasila," joked the man casually. "That's it, Win. You don't have to work hard to deny your own feelings. Don't let you regret because you chose the wrong choice. Moreover, Velove wants to accept you as you are. If I were Velove, I'd be really lazy with you. I'd better find someone else. If possible comparable and certainly more able to respect me."

Again, Darwin took a deep breath. He swallowed the sentence that he wanted to say earlier, then continued to contemplate what Randy had said. Over time, he convinced himself to immediately make a decision before it was too late.

***

Velove just finished applying various kinds of skincare on her face. When he was about to drink, he forgot that the tumblr he used to fill with water forgot to bring it to his room.

Glancing at the clock on the wall it was already 11 pm. Velove was sure that the occupants of the house were asleep. That's why, she carelessly left the room wearing only a thin nightgown.

Down the stairs, directing his feet towards the dining room. Just about to turn, suddenly a male voice reprimanded. Turning his head, Velove found the figures of Randy and Darwin sitting in the television room and now both were staring at him.

"Velove!" said Darwin. At the same time, Velove could see the surprised expression that Randy showed. Maybe you didn't expect to see Velove's appearance, which is considered very sexy.

"Do not see!" Darwin ordered while covering Randy's eyes with both hands. Then the man turned back to Velove while giving orders to his wife. "Hurry back to the room!"

"But, I want to get a drink, Win."

"Later I'll take you to your room. Now, hurry up!"

Velove pouted. But, still obey what Darwin ordered just now. After all, it was also predictable why her husband's attitude was like that.

Meanwhile, Darwin, who had made sure that Velove had returned to the room, immediately grabbed Randy's wrist to get him up from his seat. Not quite up there, the man even then pushed the cousin's body outside.

"What the hell, Win! Why are you pushing me like this?"

"Hurry home. It's getting late. I want to rest," Darwin ordered. From the tone of his voice alone, the man did not want to be rebutted.

"Okay, I'm going home right now. But, say goodbye to Velove first. It's such a fortune to see her look as sexy as ----"

"Relict!" Darwin interrupted with a look of disapproval. "Hurry home. Or I'll call security to drag you out."

Randy growled in annoyance. His cousin just casually kicked him out after no longer needing his services. Annoyed, Randy hurriedly said goodbye to go home.

Making sure his cousin was gone, Darwin walked first to the dining room. Picked up the drink bottle that Velove wanted to take before, then escorted it to his wife's room.

"Ve..." Darwin called from outside. "Quickly open the door."

As soon as the door to the room opened, without being invited Darwin immediately barged in. He walked over to the nightstand, then put down the glass drink bottle he was carrying. Seconds later, instead of rushing out, the man took a sitting position right on the edge of the bed.

"What are you doing wearing sexy clothes like this? It's not like I've repeatedly reminded you not to wear dresses or clothes that are open."

Velove stared lazily. He stepped forward and sat down next to Darwin.

"Why are you asking what to do? My nightgowns are all in this shape, Win. Besides, I really want to sleep."

"The problem is, it looks like Randy, right? It's such a fortune for her to see you this sexy."

Velove chuckled again. Why did Darwin's words sound like he was cornering him this time? After all, what's wrong with wearing a light nightgown in your own home?

"How do I know that it turns out that Randy is downstairs. It's already 11 o'clock, Win. I assume everyone is asleep."

Darwin scratched his un itchy eyebrows. Actually, Velove isn't completely wrong here either. His wife did not know that Randy was chatting with her in the television room.

"Okay, then. Tomorrow, if you want to wear a sexy dress or dress, just stay in your room. Don't wear it outside. If I'm the only one who sees, it's fine, Ve."

"That's fine since you can't possibly be tempted?" Velove quipped on purpose. Rotating his eyeballs lazily, he stood up, intending to grab the drink bottle that Darwin had put before him while continuing to grumble. "Yeah, maybe my body isn't as good as Vicky's. That's why you're not interested. Everywhere, the grass on the other side is indeed more attractive than the grass in your own yard, right?"

Darwin, who was starting to feel hot because he was being teased, at that moment also grabbed Velove's wrist. Pushing his wife's body gently until she lay down, then on top of her while holding Velove's hands so that the woman couldn't move.

"How many more times do I have to remind you not to discuss Vicky in our conversation."

"Why? You don't like it when I compare him?"

Darwin chuckled and shook his head. For some reason, Velove really likes to accuse him of nonsense.

"Not because of that, Ven."

"So what?"

"If you keep talking about Vicky, how can I learn to forget about her?"

Laughter dripped from Velove's lips. I don't know what was so funny that the woman laughed.

"You? Do you want to forget Vicky? Don't joke, Win. It seems so impossible."

Still in a position on top of Velove's body, Darwin sighed repeatedly. In fact, he meant what he said earlier. Why is Velove so hard to believe. Does it look less convincing?

"Just so you know, I even try to follow what you want, Ve," explained Darwin. "In fact, from last night I also thought about your hopes for our marriage."

Velove blinked. In the next second, the woman's brow furrowed.

"You mean?"

"Yeah..." Darwin nodded. Locking Velove's gaze. The man tried to convince Velove to believe what he said after this. "I think there's nothing wrong with building our marriage and household from scratch. I want and will try to do what you said last night."

"Does that mean you're ready to let Vicky go?"

Darwin nodded.

"I have decided to choose you."

"Are you sure? I don't want you to be played with, Win. I also don't want to be hurt later because you break your promise or change your mind."

Actually, Velove was happy with what Darwin chose. It's just that, it is undeniable that he still feels anxious and worried. I'm just afraid that in the middle of the road her husband will change his mind or move on to another heart.

However, instead of convincing, Darwin kept looking into Velove's eyes. Slowly bringing his face closer, the man could be heard whispering.

"I'll prove my point."

Not to mention having time to give a response, unexpectedly let alone excuse me, Darwin's lips landed beautifully on Velove's. The man deliberately silenced any chatter his wife might throw into one deep kiss.

Velove of course immediately widened their eyes. Besides feeling unprepared, she really didn't expect that after all this time she had avoided it, this time it was Darwin who kissed her first.

For a moment, Velove did nothing. Choosing to be silent, until finally getting kisses and soft crushes on both lips, Velove decided to embrace Darwin's body. He wrapped his hands around his husband's neck and kissed back.

Closing his eyes occasionally, Velove seemed so lost in the kiss that Darwin gave. She just let it be how her husband bit her upper lip repeatedly. Then move on to the lower lip. In fact, Velove just enjoyed it when Darwin occasionally teased him by giving kisses and warm caresses along his lips.

Velove thought, after Darwin unraveled their hot kiss, everything would just be over. In fact, the guess was wrong.

After staring at Velove's face for a while, Darwin lowered his head again. This time aiming at the cheeks and then down to Velove's long neck. Again, Darwin kissed wet. Even occasionally licking and even sucking on Velove's neck skin to make the woman move restlessly.

Darwin then pulled his face. Smiling, seeing how red there is on his wife's neck. If just a little caress like this made Velove nervous like now, then what about other treatments.

So, without taking his eyes off Velove, Darwin's hand moved one of them. Grabbing the knot from the nightgown Velove was wearing.

Interesting, Darwin intends to untie the knot. After it was released perfectly, without much thought he immediately lowered it until it was completely open. Leaving the bra and panties that cover Velove's intimate area.

For a moment, Darwin seemed to be enchanted by the beautiful scenery before his eyes. During his marriage, this was the first time he had seen the beauty and smooth body skin of a woman whose status was his wife up close.

"You're beautiful, Ve," Darwin muttered without averting his eyes.

Believing that so far there has not been the slightest objection or sign of prohibition, then the next thing Darwin did was open the shirt he was wearing to bare his chest. After that, Darwin looked down again and then slipped his hands behind Velove's back. Looking for something, until finally finding a bra hook which is indeed his current target.

In one pull, the top cover of the sensitive area is perfectly open. Showing a pair of breasts that look tight and perfectly bloated.

Again, Darwin stared silently. His Adam's apple reflexively went up and down seeing the unusual sight his wife was showing.

Velove himself looked a little awkward being in a nearly naked position. Leaving her husband staring longingly, made her heart suddenly beat wildly. In fact, the courage he usually displayed, suddenly vanished.

In order to get rid of nervousness, Velove occasionally moved while repeatedly taking deep breaths. Trying to calm all the turmoil, where his actions actually look as if he's giving a sign asking to be touched.

Darwin then wasted no more time.

Lowering his face and with his mouth open, he was deliberately teasing. Crushed, then devoured both Velove breasts in turn.

While Velove, who received constant caresses and temptations, of course felt floating and also nervous. In his entire life, where had he ever been treated like this.

Satisfied playing around, Darwin crawled back up to grab Velove's lips. Smashed it gently, while his free hand seemed to be guerrilla touching the smooth surface of Velove's skin.

Stroking the stomach, stopping there for a moment. Then back down. Target on both groin. Then pulled off the underwear that Velove was wearing.

While continuing to bite, Velove's eyes widened when he felt Darwin's fingers touch the core of his body. Wanted to refuse, but the gentle touch that Darwin gave over time made him want to go crazy.

"If I continue this, I can't promise to stop, Ve," Darwin whispered in a hoarse voice as he broke the kiss. "And again, I don't want you to regret after ----"

Before Darwin had finished speaking, with misty eyes, Velove put his index finger right above Darwin's lips. Glancing at her wistfully, Velove shook his head. Signaling for Darwin to stop his chattering.

Velove then took his hand, pulled down the sleeping pants that Darwin was still wearing. Once released as a whole, he looked up again. Then nodded, as if giving a code that he was ready to do what the two of them should have always done.

Not wanting to waste much time, Darwin positioned himself right between Velove's legs which had opened. Full of tenderness and care Darwin directs his own to slowly and little by little enter the core of Velove's body. At the same time, he could feel how Velove reflexively gripped his body with his eyes closed.

Darwin also saw clearly how Velove's tears suddenly spilled out. I don't know because it hurts. Or maybe it is also a reflection of emotion because in the end he has handed over the most valuable treasure in himself to Darwin.

After making sure Velove was feeling much more comfortable, Darwin slowly began to move with a gentle rhythm. Deliberately not in a hurry. Want to continue to adore so that Velove enjoy their romance for the first time.

A faint sigh came from Velove's lips. With his eyes closed and his breath out of breath, Velove felt how Darwin's filled him down there.

Believing that Velove was starting to feel comfortable, Darwin slowly moved again. Very slowly. Deliberately not in a hurry. Give the wife the opportunity to enjoy their romance.

Until not long ago, Darwin could clearly hear how his wife down there was sighing. Indicates that the woman enjoyed the game that Darwin created.

Then the next thing Darwin did was change positions. Holding Velove's body while continuing to move. At first it was slow, then gradually it got faster. No stopping. Making Velove's sighs sound as it fills the whole room.

Until they arrived at one point both of them felt the pleasure and satisfaction they had been looking for. There was nothing Velove and Darwin could do but hug each other. Letting something that is down there continue to link. Long enough. Before finally Darwin slowly got down to then shift. Then the man chose to lie right next to Velove, then hugged him and whispered intimately.

"From this second, you are completely mine, Ve. And vice versa."
