On the terrace of Zoe's apartment, Leonardo stood with his hands tucked into his side pockets and stared at the hot night view, the way he was in the mood now.
'I'm sorry, Zoe... Like it or not I have to leave you... .and it turns out that my feeling is right that we are not meant to be... I've been trying to maintain our relationship all this time... But finally, this tragedy happened and forced us to end,' he thought sadly, remembering every sweet moment with Zoe for about 4 years.
"I'm coming ..."
A soft female voice caught Leonardo's attention. He immediately turned his head and saw Zoe coming towards him.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, I just had dinner with my friends," Zoe said.
"It's okay," Leonardo replied with a smile, approached Zoe and saw her beautiful lips, and wanted to enjoy it as a last kiss because, after his honesty, he might never get that kiss again. "I miss you..." he looked down, about to kiss but Zoe pushed his chest instead.
"No... No more kiss before you explain to me about this post!" Zoe said then took her cell phone from her bag and immediately showed Sebastian's post.
Leonardo takes Zoe's phone and notices the post.
"I know he's Georgina's boyfriend... And he says that Georgina is pregnant, and it's not his child. It's Leonardo's child who has stained her!" Zoe said with a thump. "Is that Leonardo he mentioned is you?"
Leonardo swallowed his saliva, not expecting that Sebastian would make that post.
"Answer me!" Zoe cried, resentful of Leonardo's silence which seemed to confirm her suspicions. "Is it true that the Leonardo he mentioned is you? .and that means today you were so busy taking care of this matter that you ignored me?"
"Zoe..." Leonardo sighed, feeling sad looking at Zoe, as if unable to tell the truth.
"Answer me, you bastard!" Zoe grabbed Leonardo by the shirt "Does your silence mean yes? Is it true that you raped her until she got pregnant?" She started to get emotional, but Leonardo hugged her instead.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry!" Leonardo continued to hug Zoe tightly, even his tears just dripped.
Zoe was annoyed as if she already knew that answer. She immediately pushed Leonardo away from her body.
"You're mean, How could you do that, Huh? Are you dissatisfied with me? Or are you doing it because you secretly love her?" she asked with impatience, and emotion, even her breath ragged and her eyes filled with tears. "you are disgusting... You are so low, you ruined our 4 years relationship, it's like making everything in vain, you are mean, you son of bitch!" She looked at Leonardo with disdain, beating his chest brutally while crying.
Leonardo was just silent with the tears that just fell, not wanting to fight back because the punches from Zoe hurt no more than her heartache for what he did.
"You're mean ..."
"Sorry..."
Zoe pushed Leonardo after getting tired of beating him. She immediately turned away and walked towards the couch and sat there and cried.
"How can you do that to me… I thought you were kind… I thought you could be loyal when I was very busy, but you put off another girl instead, even though that girl is my friend's sister….how can you do that to her? That's so embarrassing... It's as if you looking down on me... It's as if she's so much better than me that you have the passion to make love to her!"
"Zoe..." Leonardo returned to the couch and then crouched in front of her taking her hand. "I didn't rape her at all back then... I didn't rape her!" He explained with a sad look.
"So?"
"At that time I was annoyed with you because you always put your work first and always avoided me when I said about a more serious relationship," Leonardo explained, not wanting to tell any more lies. "It was her birthday….she was also very disappointed in her boyfriend when I took her to meet him in a nightclub... I felt sorry for her... I invited her to have fun in the music room... we tried to get rid of our sadness for your or Sebastian's attitude...So actually all of this happened too because you guys let us down..."
"Oh, so now you're going to blame me?" Zoe asked, emotional.
"Yeah... I mean... you don't seem to prioritize us, of course, we're disappointed."
Plakk
Leonardo immediately got a slap from Zoe.
"You're wrong, how can you even blame me or Sebastian?" Zoe asked out loud. "I already know their love story, maybe Sebastian is fed up because Georgina's father is always against their relationship... Sebastian is not wrong, maybe he is fed up..and, I never meant to play with you or ignore your invitation to take it to a more serious level. I always say that I still want to focus on a career, then you understand me...I thought everything would be fine but it turns out that you misjudged me, you assumed bad things about me... You made your conclusions... And just so you know, I never meant to ignore you. This is all purely because I want to focus on my dream. .and tonight, I thought about accepting you, accepting your invitation to take our relationship to a more serious level... but this is what happened... this disappoints me, it destroys me!"
Leonardo paused regretfully and felt guilty.
"I'm sure you two are making love because you both have mutual interests... You traitors!" Zoe snapped
"Zoe... We didn't mean that at all..." Leonardo shook his head.
"You bastard!" Zoe pushed Leonardo off his back, then stood looking at him angrily. "You guys are acting like you're not getting along by acting like cat and mouse but you guys are playing behind my back!"
"No, it's not like that, Zoe....please understand..." Leonardo stood up.
"No, I don't want to understand. You two are evil!"
"Zoe..." Leonardo sighed. "We're sorry... We were both annoyed with you and Sebastian at that time. We didn't have any hope for each other's relationship...But, the next morning she was back with her boyfriend, and I realized that I'd never really get carried away with her again and I wanted to focus on you. I'm very serious about marrying you... I never imagined a situation like this... I'm so sorry but I..."
"I think you should marry her!" Zoe exclaimed emotionally. "You guys are getting married, there's no point in you saying you love me or whatever... It's all bullshit!" she continued, pointing at Leonardo's face.
Leonardo could keep quiet because what Zoe said was true.
"You came here just to say this and end our relationship, I'm sure of it!" cried Zoe with increasingly emotional crying. "This is very painful and inevitably I have to accept all of this..now go before I think of hurting you, I want to slap you, I want to hit you and even kill you!" she screamed hysterically.
"But Zoe..."
"Go!" Zoe snapped.
Leonardo looked down, unable to bear to see Zoe who was so hysterical, but he couldn't do anything.
Zoe walked back into the room crying, not expecting that this night would be like a nightmare for her. Her chest felt tight, her head was dizzy, and her body felt hot and sick. she entered the room and locked herself under the shower, trying to cool off, but the regret of having ignored Leonardo's feelings all this time began to haunt her.
'if at that time you weren't too ambitious about my goals, maybe you would never have done this to me,' she thought, admitting that she was also wrong.
