Chapter 53 - The Past!

"Promise?". Larry frowned because he didn't understand what the girl was talking about.

Immediately the girl took a deep breath in disappointment.

"Before that day's fight, didn't you promise to meet me at Queen's Walk on Christmas Eve but you didn't come. I waited for you until 12 o'clock at night when it was winter and I almost froze. I just wanted to meet you before returning to this country, and ask sorry for being selfish!".

Larry was surprised to hear the girl's explanation, immediately he began to lose his composure when he remembered everything.

"That's not selfish, I understand you are worried about me. However, I came to your house after I managed to save my brother and grandfather. However, I had to swallow my disappointment when I saw you hugging a man. Therefore, I concluded that you were deliberately fighting with me so you can be with the others." Larry said quietly.

The girl was silent, she tried to remember who the person she had hugged in front of the house was.

It wasn't long before she managed to remember.

"So you think I betrayed you? Just so you know! The person who hugged me was Jhon Fahri who was none other than my cousin".

Larry was surprised to hear the name of his cousin's enemy who turned out to have a relationship with his ex-lover.

"That night I called you but your cell phone was off. I called your house but your maid said that you were out on a date". The girl said.

"I went out to hang out with my friends, I remembered my promise but after I thought about it you couldn't come so I didn't come either". Larry explained everything without reducing or exaggerating what had happened.

Hearing Larry's explanation, the girl's tears flowed harder. 

"Why don't you ask me? Why are you silent and not looking for me?". Shouted the girl.

Larry's feelings became confused when he saw the tears that kept running down the girl's face. His heart ached to see the girl cry. But he didn't know what to say, to be honest he also felt sorry that he had just misunderstood. 

"Sisy... That's in the past! So, don't bring it up again!". Said Larry nervously.

Sisy smiled bitterly because Larry's request was impossible for her to do. 

"Larry... If in the past I said that I can't love anyone but you then it applies until now and maybe forever. So, how could I forget?". Said Sisy in a soft voice.

Hearing that expression, Larry felt happy, because actually he had not been able to forget Sisy.

Sisy is a soft and innocent woman, calm demeanor, kind and intelligent, she is always there for Larry. Their love story made one campus jealous so they were dubbed the perfect pair of ferrets.

Although Sisy is not her first love, she is the deepest love ever. Sisy is second to none for Larry because he had to go through a difficult time to be able to win her heart.

Their love story began when they studied medicine in England. 

And for 4 years of dating, Larry has never hurt Sisy and vice versa, their relationship is almost untouched by problems. 

Until that day arrives, where Sisy hears that his grandfather and brother are being held captive by their enemies. Sisy rushed to meet Larry to prevent him from leaving.

Going to therapy, Larry is determined to save his family. Sisy panicked because she was worried that she had to threaten to leave Larry if he left.

However, Larry ignored her.

Larry looked down, that misunderstanding had ruined his life at that time. And now, the woman he loves is in front of him and all the misunderstandings have been cleared up. Should he get back together? thought Larry.

Before he could say what he was thinking, Larry stopped when he heard Sisy's breath, who was about to say something. Larry looked up and looked at Sisy with a deep gaze.

"What should I do now? I love you but I'm married". Sisy asked quietly. 

Actually she didn't want to be honest, but she didn't want to hide anything from Larry.

Larry's gaze changed when he heard that Sisy was married. 

"What? Who did you marry? When?". Asked Larry.

"I married him because he was so good to me. That's why I couldn't bear to turn down his proposal. He was there when I was desperate because I couldn't meet you. He's your best friend, Jimmy. I married him a year ago". Sisy replied with a gulp. 

Larry took a deep breath and got up from his seat. His hands trembled slightly.

"Since you are married, then let the past remain beautiful in the past, Sorry I have to go!". Larry turned toward the exit feeling disoriented.

"Larry... Wait...!". Sisy shouted, after that she ran and hugged Larry who was already holding the doorknob.

Larry's tears fell when he felt Sisy's warm embrace. But he didn't want Sisy to see him.

"Larry... Can't we be friends? But if you want I can get a divorce from my husband and live with you". Sisy asked while tightening her arms.

Larry let go of Sisy's arms and wiped her tears. After that he turned to look at Sisy while saying, "If you need help you can contact me! Be a good wife and sorry I have to go!". 

After saying that, Larry immediately left her room. Meanwhile, Sisy slumped to the floor sobbing.

Not long after, Larry left the hospital. He was driving his car at high speed.

A few minutes later, his car parked in the parking lot of one of the famous bars in city B, namely that Golden night which is one of the upscale bars.

Larry walked into the Bar ignoring anyone.

"Good evening sir! Do you need a friend?".

Larry stopped, he stared intently at the woman who was teasing him by playing with her tongue. Her smooth thighs and protruding chest she deliberately showed to Larry 

"Don't touch me! You better get out of my way before I hit you!". Said Larry in a deep, intimidating voice.

The woman shuddered in horror, she immediately left in front of Larry.

After that, Larry entered one of the private rooms which was quite spacious. 

Larry sat back in his chair, his thoughts so confused that he lost his mind for a moment.

Not long after, the waiter came in and put some beers on the table. Instantly Larry immediately took a bottle and drank it until it ran out.

"I misunderstood, he came back to go even further than before. Why did fate play with me?". Larry thought angrily.

Larry bemoaned his grief so drunk that he didn't pay attention to his phone constantly ringing.

Michael's house.

At the same time, Michael paced back and forth in the living room anxiously. He felt bad when Larry had not yet received his call even though the clock had shown 40 minutes past 12.

"Why haven't you gone to sleep yet?". Asked Sophia who had just come out of her room. 

Sophia is still staying at Michael's house because she has to pack her things before returning to the house she rented.

Besides, Michael didn't let her come back that night because it was so late. Therefore, Sophia was forced to stay one more night.

Michael turned to Sophia with a worried expression.

"I couldn't sleep after checking Larry's house, he hasn't come home tonight. I'm worried something might happen to him because I forced him to do surgery. I've asked several people to look for him, but no news yet". Michael answered sadly.

Sophia was also worried. "You keep calling until he picks up, I'll accompany you here".

Just then, Michael's cell phone rang and it was from his men. 

"Hello boss!".

"Tell me where he is when you find him!"

"That's it boss...". The two bodyguards immediately explained how Larry's current condition was.

Instantly Michael's expression darkened, he clenched his fists in anger. After all, Larry was his responsibility.

After he finished talking to his men, Michael immediately turned to Sophia as he said. "I have to go, sleep and don't wait for me!".

After saying that, Michael immediately kissed her forehead and then left Sophia without giving Sophia a chance to speak.

Sophia was stunned while holding her forehead, she could still feel the warmth of Michael's kiss.. Instantly she smiled with red cheeks.
