Hate You, Love You
Subsequent

Gio looked at Amara's phone screen for a long time. It was inconceivable in his head what he wanted to say to Danis. "Don't call my wife again !" Gio said in his heart. He closed his eyes when he thought of it all. I hope what he says is real.

But it's all in Gio's delusion. In reality the phone call from Danis stopped by itself, and Gio put it back on the nightstand.

Gio sighed deeply and scooped his face in frustration. This unrequited love really made Gio tortured. After that Gio did not feel sleepy again even though he was just a few minutes asleep before the phone call from Danis woke him up.

Lazily Gio got up from his seat. He walked to the other side of the bed to see Amara's sleeping face behind him. Gio smiled as he could stare at the beautiful face of Amara who was asleep in her sleep.

"Yes God... How could I fall in love with you who hate me so much ?" Ask Gio to himself.

"If I could manage my heart not to fall in love with you, it wouldn't be this hard. I'm sorry Amara..," said Gio in his heart.

Gio sighed deeply, he needed a cup of coffee to keep him sane. Gio leaves Amara for a while to the nurse on duty. Then he went to the hospital cafeteria.

Amara's breath is hunting and short-lived. His breathing roared panting. Amara just had a nightmare. A dream in which Danis knows all about her pregnancy and the man accuses Amara of being an unfaithful woman. Even more embarrassing, Danis pointed at Amara's face and called her a self-respecting woman who could fall in love with the man who had desecrated her.

"Gio" said Amara slowly. His feelings were so chaotic after the dream came to him. Amara's stomach churned wanting to take out its contents. She looked around and there was no presence of her husband.

"Gio's... Where's gio ?" Amara shuffled in fear. I don't like being alone in a hospital like this.

"Ara is awake ?" Suddenly, her mother appeared from behind the door. "You slept long enough. Mom's worried,"

"Where's gio ?" Instead of answering her mother's question, Amara asked her husband's absence.

"Now that it was half 9am, Gio had left for the office to work. There's something Gio can't leave. Your husband called Mama. Even sending people to pick up,"

"Oh..," Sahut Amara. His face looked disappointed when he found out that Gio wasn't around.

"Why ?" Ask the worried mother.

"It's okay, Ma. Ara just felt a little nauseous,"

"Let's help you get to the toilet, please,"

Amara nodded slowly, with the help of her mother and a nurse she went to the bathroom. But I don't know, Amara doesn't feel as comfortable as if Gio is next to her. The man can always make Amara feel better every morning.

After that dream, Amara's mood was so chaotic. His thoughts were filled with Danis and Gio as well. His feelings began to fade between the two men. It is undeniable, it turns out Amara began to need the presence of Gio but he is still uncertain with his own feelings because there is still Danis in his heart.

Right at lunchtime Gio came to see his wife's condition. The look in his eyes met with Amara and locked for a while. But Amara immediately turned her face away when she realized that Gio was not alone. Behind him is Dea's cousin.

"Ara ! How are you doing ? Gio told me last night you had a stomach ache, didn't you ?" Ask Dea worriedly.

Instead of answering her cousin's question, Amara focused more on the phrase "so Gio's story". It felt like those words were not good to hear by Amara's ears.

"Ara ?" Dea asked again because Amara did not answer.

"In Gio's office. Eh sorry I haven't told you, I'm an apprentice in your husband's office" Dea replied, and it made Amara a great surprise but desperately Amara was mediocre.

"Oh, congratulations" said Amara.

"Yes, after doing some research some time ago. I applied for an internship there and it turned out that Gio accepted it,"

"Uncle I'll take it," errat Gio.

"Oh yes, uncle" said Dea clumsy. "Don't Gio tell me ?" Ask Dea.

Amara looked at Gio who was looking at her. "Gio didn't tell me anything" replied Amara.

Gio feels Amara is being cynical about him, but Gio is also not so sure because it is impossible if Amara feels jealous of him.

"I haven't had the chance to tell you because..,"

"No problem, though ! You don't have to tell me anything" cut Amara fast.

"Loh Gio, Dea ? You guys just came ?" Ask Amara's mother who just came from outside.

"Iya Tan," Dea also welcomed the arrival of Amara's mother who is the younger sister of her mother.

"Have you eaten ?" Ask Amara's mother again.

"Not yet" replied Dea.

"Ooh then let's eat first ! Across the hospital is a nice Padang rice stall" Amara's mother said.

"Oh yeah ?" Tanya Dea was enthusiastic. "Let's eat, Gio !" Dea was so full of spirit.

"You go first, De. I want to nemenin Amara lunch first," replied Gio as he kept his eyes on Amara.

Amara knew that Gio kept looking at her, but she did not want to reply. "I'm not hungry yet, you two better go. I want to rest for a while," cut Amara while turning her body until now she lies on her back to everything.

"That Amara wants to sleep too. Let's eat !" Take Dea impatient.

"Yes Gio, let's eat first. You don't worry, Amara will have this Mama" said Amara's mother supported the words of her nephew. And Dea was just getting happy about it.

"But..," Gio was still reluctant to leave. Although it is impossible for Gio if Amara is not happy with the existence of himself and Dea.

Amara is busy with her own thoughts. "I told you not to get involved with Gio. You have to hate him like you used to ! Yes Amara, you must hate her !" Amara said to herself.
