Between Two Hearts
Chapter 88

Windu has just entered his office, after so many days he just stayed at home, doing everything from home just because it served Dara's very strange cravings.

Someone had been waiting in front of his office, he was Windu's assistant Dicky.

"Good morning, Windu..."

"Good morning." Windu.

"Is your face so tense?" Ask Windu.

"Something someone wants to meet?"

"Who?"

Dicky did not immediately reply but he prepared to open the door of Windu's room.

"He's inside, I can't stop him from coming in."

Windu eyes stunned at a woman who had been very familiar with him.

"Novi?"

"Hallo, Win.long time no see." Novi who had originally turned her back turned in an elegant style.

"Why are you here?"

"I just want to meet you.'

"What's wrong?" windu looked misbehaved and gestured Novi to sit in the guest chair of his room.

"I was just passing by, long time no see you. All this time I was assigned to a branch office outside the area so I didn't have a chance to see you." Novi smiled at Windu.

Windu threw away his face, he had no words due to this sudden encounter.

" What about your wedding? I heard you were in Jogja long enough."

"Yes, I accompanied my wife to school there while taking care of the branch."

"That was your old wife, right? The one your mother made?"

Novi's question made Windu frown.

"I only married once and I only have one wife." Sahut Windu later.

Novi chuckled at Windu who he thought looked strange. After a long time did not meet, he looked more mature with a brighter face just that his attitude was very different in response to the presence of Novi, who was very different, very far from Novi's shadow of how he predicted Windu's welcome given that Novi is his only beautiful ex.

"I remember once, how you were so angry with your match, I did not expect, if it turns out your marriage is this old. In fact, I almost bet that you're leaving your wife in less than 3 months." Once again Novi laughed, like a friend who was joking.

The look on Windu's face did not change with Novi's joke, he looked serious. Until then Novi stopped his laughter, and returned Windu's gaze with a little shame, he did not find the response he expected from the man who had adored him.

"The past is something far behind, I don't feel like we should be discussing that right now. You and I have different paths. We might be able to laugh at that time but I appreciate it because the past may indeed hold many memories, but that is not an excuse not to keep moving forward. That's why my marriage is fine." Windu's voice sounded straightforward.

Novi fell silent,

"You've become a lot more mature than you used to be." Then there was an awkward grin on his lips.

"Time forces people to be adults." Seloroh Windu's.

Novi could not hide his astonishment, his legs crossed and sat in a formal style.

"Are we not to meet?" Novi asked riled with Windu's attitude.

"I am a married man..." Windu replied expressionlessly.

"I have to act like a married man. It's not good to meet if there's no interest at all."

Novi was wide open to hear the sentence spoken by Windu, flat and unexpected.

"You? What the hell is wrong with you? I thought you'd be happy to see me after all this time." Novi's face flushed.

"I thank the past for bringing me to someone who has ever meant anything in my life. But it's just the past, if you come to me now to offer me anything in the name of both of us, I reiterate.I just love my wife now." Windu shakes his shoulders, feeling victorious having overcome his awkwardness after meeting his ex-girlfriend.

His head was reminded of Dara who was now pregnant at home, waiting for him to eat. His wife would not eat without him.

"Why are you acting as if I came today because I want to tease you?" Novi asked with a sour face.

"An ex who met his lover in the past certainly has no interest other than that, right?" Windu's booming question made Dara scowl annoyed.

"I'm not that kind of person!" Followed with annoyance.

"Then you came to my office for what day? Without wind without a storm just want to meet? I'm just trying to be limiting because if anyone sees us, of course, his mind is different. I really love my wife." Windu smirked in satisfaction at feeling like he had managed to become a good husband,

"Dara should give me credit for this, as husband ter the best."

Windu is implying, has been able to prove himself can refuse an ex for the sake of a wife, this attitude he believes must be so rare can be done by men.

And he belonged to one of those rare men! Dara should know, her husband is in a rare group that needs to be preserved.

"Why did your mind get that far. I didn't come to tease you!" Novi nagged with a face that was still red.

"I also have a life principle, Win. Five years ago I would've been the third person in your marriage if I wanted to! But I, I, have no self-esteem, I'm not gonna do anything to make me look low. I'm disappointed that you never really knew me even though we were dating for quite a while" Novi was really offended by Windu's attitude.

His hand reached into the bag that was on his lap, offering an invitation that looked luxurious with a red ribbon.

"I guess we're still friends, which is why I'm meeting you and I want to deliver this to you." Novi said and stood up from his seat.

"What's this?"

"My wedding favor." Answer the short Novi.

"I think I'm coming home now, rather than you throwing me out if I stay here for a long time. If you have time, come. Take your wife too." Novi said with an attitude still upset, then walked towards the door, out of there with half slammed the door.

Windu gawked himself, he had misunderstood the arrival of Novi. If all these exes were the same, came suddenly about to disturb the household relationships of others. He just tried to be protective with his household, not want to be soap operas who usually quickly see a clear ex. But, it turns out that he was overreacting.

Windu picked up the golden invitation while scratching his non-itchy head.

He was ashamed of himself and did not have time to apologize for his attitude towards Novi which was really excessive.

"Jeez...is this as good as it is that I am with my wife?" Windu could only bite his lips, his mind drifting at his wife who was probably frowning at home waiting for him to come home
