Stealing The Wife’s First Kiss - Chapter 209

Finally, Lesmana’s daughter managed to stir the emotions of Wiryo’s grandson. She made him stay in the same room, sitting, and observing Aruna who was maintaining her breath so that it was difficult to see her sleeping as if she had become a corpse.

On the other hand, someone’s heart trembled tremendously. Hendra was so worried about her. He didn’t even sleep a wink just to take care of her. Whose heart didn’t melt from the attention of this stubborn man?

He expressed love over and over again without feeling awkward. He openly asked for her kisses every time. Sometimes at night, he tidied up her hair before she was held in his arms and he hugged her all night.

When the deadline in the guide had been successfully passed by Mahendra, the tiny girl, who slowly realized that maybe it wouldn’t be long until she left his side, tried to present a sweet journey at night.

She wanted to be kept as the best memory, that she wasn’t just a wife who often refused her husband’s requests. Or a woman who didn’t want to give her husband’s rights.

In the following days, she asked him to try new things, try new clothes, watch movies together, and follow his wish to enjoy a honeymoon in Bali.

[NOW]

“Hm.. Dea.. Are you looking for Ms. Aruna?”. A 30-year-old man, who was about to reach 31 years old, was approaching a veiled girl who was 10 years younger than him.

That girl was enjoying the ocean waves alone. People were surfing there but that girl preferred to watch something on her cellphone.

“Not really!”. That girl replied while looking at the newest movie containing handsome Korean men.

“Are you watching Melting Me? I know that’s Ji Changwook, right?”. Mahendra’s secretary had been reading strange articles lately. In the past, he’d protested because Mahendra told him to read Damar’s indie novel. Surya said it didn’t support his work in the office.

But now he wasn’t just reading weird articles. He even watched some dramas that used to make him want to throw up.

“Wow.. You know?!”. The K-Pop and K-Drama lover was enthusiastic because someone knew something she liked.

“Hehe”. Surya smiled because his efforts were successful.

“Hm.. Can I sit?!”. A man was asking for permission shyly.

“Oh, please!”.

When those words were uttered by Dea, the human whose daily life was only working tried to sit near a woman.

_Why does it feel scarier than a presentation in front of dozens of directors?_

“Hm.. Sir, you better sit there. Not near me. I think it’s a bit strange?!”. Dea became awkward. Surya suddenly sat on a beach chair that was supposed to be used for one person. The man sat too close to Dea, making the girl objected.

The nervous man forgot how to use his brain: “Hehe, sorry”.

_Is this how Hendra feels? Wait. Do I like this kid? I’ve become stupid just like my boss who suddenly became stupid because of a woman_

Surya finally sat in the right place, on the beach chair next to the girl in a flower veil.

“So you also know Ji Changwook. I really like him, especially when he played in The K2. It was the first drama that made me finally become a fan of him. He played as…”. The Korean men lover immediately ranted about one of the Korean men that she liked. Her knowledge was so complete.

“Hehe. I see..”. The man who had been secretly peeking at her cellphone just read Ji Changwook’s name on Google. His knowledge was limited to the name of the main character seen in the drama that she watched. He deliberately sought out information about that drama just to start a conversation. A stupid way that Surya had tried so many times to talk to Aruna’s best friend.

Actually, this man had tried to approach Dea. Starting from the many communications between the two when the boss asked for opinions about a birthday gift for his wife, including other opinions that were difficult to solve. Like the opinion of how to deal with the young master’s wife? It wasn’t him who got married but he was told to solve it.

There was no other way but to contact Aruna’s best friend. And so on. Even without a task, Surya could pretend to find an excuse to send WhatsApp messages to the K-Pop lover.

“Why are we quiet?”. Surya asked a strange question.

“I don’t know? You’re quiet too?”.

“Hm..”. Surya looked like someone deep in thought even though he just wanted to start a conversation.

“Are you thirsty? I brought two drinking water. One for you. Is it okay?”. Finally, Dea asked a question. As the girl drank the water, she saw sweat dripping down Surya’s face. It was quite unique for someone who was hit by the fresh air of the beach.

“Hm.. I don’t want to be complicated like my boss. I mean the complicated relationship between your best friend and my boss. So I decided I’ll be honest right now. Since you can’t possibly accept a confession of love or dating, what if we get married? I like you!”.

She choked and spilled the water in her mouth all over the shirt of the man who had just confessed his love.

“Ah. Sorry, sorry.. You got all wet”. Dea was confused about what to do. Even if she wanted to clean it, it would be even more awkward.

“Hehe. I’m also sorry. You must be surprised”. Surya’s words were getting more ambiguous.

“Are you sick?”. Dea needed to confirm many things.

“Oh, no.. I’m fine”.

“Did you eat something wrong?”.

“Oh, I didn’t”.

“Did you have enough sleep last night?”.

“Enough! You think I’m delirious? I wasn’t delirious!”.

“Or maybe I’m the one who’s hallucinating because I watched dramas too much?”. Dea was thinking maybe she fell asleep while watching drama and now she’s dreaming.

“No! This is reality!!”.

“Wait.. Am I sleeping and dreaming?!”.

“Argh.. No!!”.

“Then WHY ARE YOU PROPOSING TO A WOMAN LIKE YOU’RE GIVING A SHOCK THERAPY!!”.
