Bonds Without Love
ITC #40

Erina and Bisma arrived in Jakarta at around 03:45 p.m., waiting for Leo to come pick up while eating at a cafe near the airport. And during the meal at the cafe or maybe longer than that, Erina and Bhishma fell silent to each other.

Erina had often shown her innocent body when they were spending the night together, but Erina had never felt this shy before, probably because it was usually Bhishma who undressed Erina.

Well, Erina was embarrassed that her towel had come off while Bhishma was staring at her. How could that happen? Erina just didn't want to remember it, it was so embarrassing that Erina became even more reserved.

While Bisma was silent because Erina was difficult to talk to, she had tried to be ordinary to invite Erina to talk when they were still on the plane, but Erina was reluctant to talk to her husband.

"Good afternoon in the afternoon, Miss Erin." The voice interrupted the silence that occurred, Erina and Bisma turned towards the source of the voice.

Leo approached with a smile that made others misunderstand. Because the secretary of Bhishma only greeted Erina, while the existence of Bisma was ignored.

"I told you to come here, Leo!" Bhishma. He felt that Leo really liked Erina. And that made him unhappy.

Leo took a breath and looked at Bhishma who was staring coldly at him. And Erina just watched the two of them without wanting to return Leo's greeting, she was contemplating her embarrassment towards Bhishma.

"Good afternoon by noon, Mr. Bhishma ..."

"Tell!" Bhishma without replying to Leo's words, then moved from his seat and approached Leo.

"I'll pay for the food, you don't dare to mess around." Bisma to Leo.

"I won't mess with your wife, you take it easy." Reply Leo casually. Bisma shouts Leo's head because of his loud voice.

Bhishma deliberately whispers so that Erina does not hear him, but Leo instead speaks loudly and makes Bhishma feel Leo is trying to make her embarrassed.

"Yes!" Leo was about to protest, but Bhishma had already left and it made Leo cluck. Bhishma has been very ordinary to behave as he pleases.

Erina who saw Bhishma go away felt she had a chance to find information regarding Bhishma and Gisella's relationship. And Erina didn't need to keep quiet because she was embarrassed.

"Leo, can I ask you something?" Erina's question distracted Leo, the secretary of Bhishma looked at Erina while pointing at herself.

"Yes, you! Although there are many men named Leo in the world, the only Leo I know here is you!" Erina answered with a flat and serious face.

Leo grimaced softly and took a breath before speaking.

"All right, Miss Erin. What do you want to ask?" Ask Leo politely.

"I don't want to talk, was it true that the bisma came to see you?" Ask Erina. The man in front of him seemed to be silent as if he was thinking of something.

"Before the rumors about Bisma and Gisella spread, did you meet?" Erina asked, clarifying.

Leo knew the direction Erina spoke. It seems Leo's guess is right, Bisma and Erina come home quickly due to a problem. And Gisella was the reason behind the problem.

"True, I and Mr. Bhishma met at that time. Miss Erin, you still don't trust Mr Bisma?" Guess Leo.

"Leo, you better sit down, I'm less comfortable standing up." Erina said without answering Leo's question.

Leo simply complied and sat down in front of Erina. He also felt sick if he had to keep standing.

"So you still suspect Mr. Bisma and Gisella have a relationship?" Leo asked so curiously.

"No, it's not that. It's just .. I'm less sure they don't have a relationship." Erina answered slowly.

The problem is, Erina felt she had to keep the words more when talking to Leo because she did not want Bhishma to know that she was still suspicious.

Leo sighed. "What's the difference between being suspicious, being unsure and not believing?" Her thought.

"Leo, I know you're friends, but can you tell me the truth about their relationship? And can you think of me as a little brother asking for directions?"

"If I say Mr. Bhishma and Gisella's relationship is only a stranger, do you believe me?" Ask Leo.

Erina was stunned and could not say anything as Leo's words just now sounded ambiguous in her ears.

"Miss Erin, I don't know how your love story was in the past, but Mr. Bhishma is different from the person you were in your past. And you should be grateful to be the first woman for my boss."

Leo thought Erina had a bad past with her ex-lover so he said so. While Erina was still silent. And without both of them knowing, Bhishma heard what they had just talked about.

Ten minutes passed without talking to each other, Bisma suddenly stood beside Leo with her hands covering her secretary's face to stop looking at Erina. He acted as if he knew nothing.

"Leo, who let you look at my wife?" Bisma asked with her eyes fixed on Erina.

While in the heart Bhishma said. "Leo, I never let you say rude things to Erina."

Erina looked at Bisma grudgingly. He is not sad that Leo alluded to his past because of what Erina remembers instead of his father. And how could Erina compare her father to a man as kind and gentle as Bhishma.

"Erin, did Leo bother you?" Bisma's question turned to his wife when she found out Leo was going to open his mouth.

"No! Bhishma, can we go to Soraya's house now?" Erina deliberately diverted because she did not want Leo to complain to Bhishma.

"Miss Erin, you intend to run away from home again?" Leo asked. Bhishma immediately silenced the secretary's mouth with his hand.

"You better shut the fuck up!" Decree on the bisma without caring about the strange gazes of the people.

Leo is in the heart. "Your hands have covered my mouth, and how am I going to cover them?"

"Erin, you better get to the car first." Bhishma's words turned to Erina who was looking at him.

"Hm, okay." Erina then moved on and left. He also did not want to be there for too long. Although Erina was actually a little worried about Leo and the man's mouth.

"Bisma, your wife is gone so let go of your hand, I also had no intention of looking at your wife!" Said Leo upset because the hand of Bhishma almost covered his entire face.

The bisma rolled her eyes and lowered both her hands.

"Leo, next time don't talk rudely to my wife." Bisma said, looking seriously at Leo.

Yes, that was indeed the reason Bisma asked Erina first. Bisma wants to make it clear to Leo that her secretary has no right to offend Erina.

Leo clucked. "So you heard what I said to your wife?" Guess it and stare bravely at Bhishma.

"I wouldn't say that just like-"

"I don't care what your reasons are, no one can hurt Erina." Bhishma's speech cuts off the word Leo.

"Erina suspects you, she-"

"I know, I hear everything you're talking about, and thank you for standing up for me, but next time you have to take care of Erin more, we never know how Erin's life was in the past." The bisma again cuts off Leo's words.

While Erina is waiting for them outside the cafe because she does not know where Leo parked his car. And most importantly ... Erina doesn't know Leo's car. He came out just because Bisma asked for it.
