Now is the chance to prove who Mikel Jhonson really is. Elie tries to tease Mikel and succeeds, the man grabs his lips greedily.
Let's prove who you really are.
Mikel is lulled into their kiss, so Elie's hand tries to release the button that is still fused. Slowly the buttons of Mikel's shirt came off perfectly. His palm felt Mikel's muscular stomach until it stopped at one point with skin that looked rough like a wound on Mikel's lower left abdomen. An elongated scar covered by a star tattoo.
Yes, it turns out that I loved her from long ago until now.
Already he proved himself if Mikel is none other than his Mike. The wound was enough to prove that the man who tried to approach her all this time was none other than the man who had been with her since childhood. It was like Elie was shedding her tears, but she had to hold back her tears, because she wanted to hear from the man's lips to acknowledge his true identity.
"Sweetheart, what are you doing?" Mikel ended their hot kiss, then caught Elie's wrist groping the star tattoo imprinted on her lower abdomen. I don't know since when the shirt buttons have all been removed.
"I'm just petting her, can't I?" The eyeballs look plain flushed.
"No, i-i"
"Why hm?" Elie pulled her hand from Mikel's palm, then rubbed the tattoo more intensely, her palm feeling a long scratch covered by the tattoo. "Do you still want to hide from me, Mike?"
Deg
Mikel's body suddenly froze to hear the woman's lips call Mike's name, a nickname he had in the past.
"What are you talking about?" Mike immediately covered up his star tattoo by draping his split clothes revealing his abdominal muscles.
"Don't dodge it again, I've been aware of it for the past few days." Elie tried to smile, covering up the rising sadness.
"I really don't understand what you're talking about Sweetheart." Mikel puts on a confused face, covering up the tension on her face when Elie alludes to her problem which is Mike.
"When do you want to hide it from me? From all of us?!" Elie didn't care about the man's pretenses. Today he must know everything.
"I really don't understand, it looks like you're exhausted, Sweetheart. I'll go so you can rest." No. gabe. He didn't want to stay near Elie who was already suspicious of him. Mikel hurriedly put the buttons on his shirt back while turning his body, about to leave from there.
"Isn't the tattoo on your stomach to cover your wound? No need to cover it up Mike, I've seen it and I just touched the wound." Elie's tears could not be weaved anymore, he melted the tears. It felt so hard to be accepted by common sense, his Mike was now standing before him but still trying to deny. I don't know what kept the man hidden all this time.
Mikel sighed with rage. He didn't expect Elie to realize he was Mike. "Stop Elie. You're getting slurred on talking. If you're not tired, I'll see you again." It was like Mikel could not see Elie shed her tears, wanting her to embrace her body. But he must not be weak, he said it was not time to reveal his current identity to anyone, including to the woman he loved the most.
"Did you forget Mike, when you got hurt I felt so guilty and to make amends, I took care of you in the hospital and even replaced the bandage in your stomach." Elie did not care about Mikel who was about to dodge and wanted to pass away just like that. With a flash, he tried to dig up the memory of their togetherness.
Mikel flinched, his lips tightly clenched. Elie is very smart and deliberately wants to enter the world of their sweet past at that time.
I'm sorry Sweetheart.
But Mikel still stands by his decision not to let anyone know who he really is. It's not yet time for Elie to find out she is Mike, though she still insists.
"I'm going Sweetheart. Take care of yourself."
Elie's eyes rolled glancing towards the door, watching Mikel step away from her and about to open the door to her room.
Step Elie swung close to the nightstand, where there were some aromatherapy candles that gave off a soothing aroma. Elie placed her palm on the candle that was still emitting fire.
"Akkhhh...."
Hearing Elie's agonizing groan, Mikel immediately turned his head. How surprised she was to find Elie putting her palm on a burning candle.
"Sweetheart what are you doing?!' Mikel shouted and was about to approach.
"But-"
"Enough Mikel. You better get out of here. No need to care about me anymore!" snapped it.
"Sweetheart...." Mikel paused his intention to leave from there and walked closer to the nightstand. "Don't hurt yourself like that!"
"It's none of your business. It's my way of punishing myself for betraying Mike with another man." Elie did not heed Mikel's exclamation. He placed one hand over the candle that was burning. Until then hissing when the fire was increasingly ignited into the skin of his palm. Tears were already flowing down the river on his face. Elie doesn't know what to do, she believes Mikel is Mike. But seeing Mikel who was adamant dodged, made him doubt if they were the same man.
"Akkhh...." Elie screeched as a thick liquid of blood dripped down from one of her palms.
"Sweetheart!!" Mikel, who was already very panicked, ran over and pulled Elie, bringing her into her arms and letting Elie shed her tears.
Elie did not rebel, she was too tired to refuse Mikel's embrace which made her comfortable. Roaring with his chest, he did not even feel any pain in his two injured palms. Mikel's heart throbbed with pain, he really could not bear to watch his woman hysterically like this.
"Mikel, please leave. I don't want to see you again. You'll just remind me of him. I should have rejected you in the first place, but I foolishly let you approach me" she cried.
"Sshhttt, I'm not leaving." Mikel gently rubbed Elie's hair, trying to calm down.
"Please go!" pinta Elie was filled with emphasis, even the woman had now rebelled. "Go as far as you can, I don't want to see you. I will punish myself for accepting another man. I'm...." Elie recalled that her lips had already been savored by Mikel. "I-I have to punish my lips as well."
"Elie's.... Sweetheart...." Mikel clenched Elie's body, but hearing Elie groaning in pain made Mikel relax his embrace to make Elie manage to keep his body away from Mikel. Elie runs small to reach the candle back but Mikel manages to pull Elie back into her arms.
"Take me off!" Elie rebelled, refusing Mikel's hand. "Don't mind me! I have to punish my body, I promised Mike not to let another man touch me!" Yes, even though at that time Mike forced himself to promise, but Elie did not agree and also could not argue.
"Elie stop, you don't have to punish yourself. You never promised me!"
"You're not Mike! You don't know anything!" Elie attempts to push Mikel with her injured palm.
"No Elie. Don't be like this." Mikel's heart was powerless, his eyes had already condensed. He could feel what his wife was feeling.
Elie ignores Mikel, trying to distance herself from him. Until Mikel felt very pinched at the moment.
"You never betrayed me, Elie. Never does. I'm Mike, I hugged you and I kissed you. Mikel and Mike are the same guy, so you never betrayed me!"
Hearing Mikel's words, Elie's cry subsided for a moment. He lifted his face, while looking at Mikel's face with tears that almost flooded the entire face of the woman.
"Dear, it's Mike. I'm Michael Jhonson, the man who's always been crazy about you to death."
