The Passion Of My Enemy
** I'M So Sorry **

Derek looked at his sobbing wife. He had long wanted to cry at that time. He was late to save the only person Eve loved so much. Yet she harbored it all, kept her cries in her heart and now, this beautiful little lady before her took her place in tears. Crying for David who has gone missing, crying for Eve who lost the most important person in her life, and crying for Derek who experienced unbearable regret for the two brothers.

"Now you understand, Sweety, why I said I love Eve. I loved him like my own brother, despite David's last words asking me to look after him. I'll do it without him asking."

Amy nodded, clearing her nose that felt full. Derek held out a tissue for his wife, which was immediately taken by Amy to wipe her nose and tears.

"I'm sorry, Derek. I really didn't know you and Eve had such a life story."

Derek held out both hands holding Amy's hands outstretched on the table.

"Thank you for understanding me, Sweety. You trust me now, don't you? You cried for me, I'm so grateful. I've wanted to check on David's departure for a long time. Now you're crying for her ...."

"Oh, Derek. Of course I believe you."

 Their conversation stalled with the arrival of the waiter serving their order. The two immediately released their hands on the table. The smell of the food and the steaming steam made Derek feel hungry. His energy seemed to run out remembering his regretful past.

"I trust you. But can you explain why you were in that hotel room at the time, Derek?" Amy recalled Derek's half-naked position and Eve wearing only Lingerie.

"If you wait and ask him, Eve will explain it to you. Our business relationship at that time invited a drink. The man was apparently alcohol resistant. I was no longer able to accompany him to drink, then asked for a break in the room before I fell. Mike, who was also drunk, asked Eve to take me. Just a few steps away, I threw up. Fouled my clothes and Eve's clothes that grabbed me."

Derek watched as understanding entered his wife's head.

"Therefore he took off my clothes and undressed himself to clean up the vomit on our clothes. If you want to take my blanket off, I'm still wearing my pants, sweetie." Derek laughed when he saw the red hue creeping across his wife's face.

"Eve's actually after you. Trying to stop you from escaping. But a man who caught her for just wearing lingerie in the hotel hallway got her stuck."

Amy widened her eyeballs to hear Derek's story.

"What did that man do to Eve?" He would feel very sorry if something happened to Eve because he had to pursue her just by wearing underwear. Derek shook his head at the worried tone in Amy's voice.

"No need to worry. Eve can really take care of herself. I educated him and trained him in martial arts, using weapons and fighting. He is intelligent ..everything he learns very quickly he masters. The man was battered after trying to catch Eve."

Amy chuckles. Feeling relieved to hear nothing happened to Evangeline.

"Now stop, sweetie. I hungry. Let's eat." Take Derek. He immediately took his spoon and fork.

"But Derek, you haven't said a single word about Reggie. What was? She all right?"

Derek tried to give his best smile to convince. "Of course he's fine. Let's eat first. I'm really hungry."

Amy stopped the question. According to Derek's wishes. He took a spoon and bribed to fill his stomach. They eat in silence, Derek trying to choose the right word to tell the departure of Reggie who until now did not know where the limb is.

"Now tell me what's going on with Reggie, Derek." Amy looked at her husband who was silent and seemed to have trouble saying words.

"Oh come! Just say! You're making me worry about acting that way." Amy was impatient.

"Reggie's gone." Derek stopped his speech and went back to silence. Seek and choose words.

"Go? What do you mean go? He's looking for me?" Amy saw Derek shaking.

"No. He didn't know you ran away, Sweety. I think he left almost the same time you ran away."

Amy glares. "But where? To ... Why?"

"He left a piece of paper for Mike. Said he was gone for a while. told Mike to tell you not to worry and asked Mike to tell me to always take care of you."

Amy was feeling restless. He stood up and took Derek home. " We're going home now Derek. Reggie couldn't have left me. Something's been bothering him for weeks. We need to find him soon."

"Don't worry. Mike's been looking for her since she left. We'll know where he is soon."

"really?" Derek immediately nodded and stood up from his chair. Stretched out his hand to touch his wife's cheek.

"It seems he just needs to calm down. Like you, he went of his own free will, not kidnapped or captured. I think Mike will find her soon. Like I found you now." Derek approached, touched his face to Amy's face, then touched her lips gently. Amy closed her eyes. They share a kiss inside the restaurant, giving each other a longing during their separation.

"Gosh, Mom. I also want to have a girlfriend and be kissed like that."

The sound of a little girl makes Amy and Derek instantly secede. Looking up, they saw a ten-year-old little girl holding her mother's hand who kept trying to pull her away from where Amy and Derek were standing.

"You guys .. look elsewhere so my little girl doesn't have to see scenes like this. This is a restaurant!" The mother again pulled her daughter while nagging. Derek laughed as he immediately pulled Amy towards the cashier. Pay for the food and get out of the restaurant by hugging his wife's shoulders reddish .
