538 Vulnerable and weak
Zechan was never and would never be bothered by whatever had happened with Delila in the past. When he used to accompany her in the hospital, he always told her to forget everything and move on in life. Since she was saved by Singtan and the rest, she should start a fresh life and cherish each and every moment leaving her traumatic past behind.
According to Zechan, if Delila was really restricting and stopping herself from loving him despite having feelings for him, it was wrong and totally unfair for him and her as well.
When Zechan had did not have any problem and wanted to give her all the love and respect she deserves, why should Delila deliberately stop him from doing that? Why would she do that to herself too? Why purposely make yourself suffer when you know you can live a better life and a happy life? Isn't that just like wasting the second chance she got?
Zechan knew that Delila was a strong and independent woman who was solely taking care of her family and firmly believed that she would never think or feel lowly of herself after whatever had happened but things turned out to be completely different.
Pushing him away, Delila said," Don't say anything Zechan and stay away from me. I don't want you to get involved with me. I-I" before bursting into tears.
Tucking his hands into his pocket, Zechan kept on staring at her waiting for her to open her heart out.
Grabbing her hair, Delila said," H-he has touched me everywhere. I feel disgusted when I look at my body. I am not pure. I-I feel used and disgusted whenever I look at myself. How can you love someone like me? How can you say that you don't care? How can you not be bothered by everything that had happened? How Zechan? How can you say that it is not important? How can you willingly accept me just like that? How?" Delila shouted.
Wrapping his arms around her, Zechan smiled and said," I love you more Delila and I am so happy." Before lifting her up and spinning around.
Just then the whole night sky flashed and a strong thunder broke followed by heavy droplets of rain.
" You see even the clouds are happy for me." Zechan said.
Wiping her tears, Zechan said," This is the first and last time I want to see tears in your eyes. I don't want you see you cry until they are happy tears."
Delila smiled and nodded her head.
Rubbing her back, Zechan asked," Do you want some water?"
When Delila nodded her head, Zechan said," You can go wash your face. You can use the washroom in my room." Pointing towards his room, he continued," That one."
Delila nodded her head and entered the room while Zechan entered the kitchen to fetch a glass of water for her with a sweet smile on their face.
