THE SECRET OF EDMOND'S LOVE
Love Teddy

Teddy Pov's

I smiled happily when I heard the sound of my apartment door being opened from outside. I'm pretty sure it was Mahira. And it's true. He showed up with his sweet smile that always made me drunk. Today she appears very beautiful with one tied hair and a navy blue dress.

"Darling.....!" That's how Mahira calls me. I immediately greeted her with a warm hug and kissed her lips which had always been a palanquin to me.

"I miss you." I whispered as I rubbed her lips that I just kissed.

"Teed....!" Mahira blushed. That's how he is, still embarrassed even though we have been in a relationship for 4 years.

I'm not exactly the romantic type. But today I will be very romantic because I want Mahira to be mine completely. To be honest, I was so tired of having to go back and forth Singapore-Manado just to let go of my miss to her. Mahira is also very heavy to have to part with Oma Yohana. But what else? This is the only way he can be with me to Singapore.

"How's your job, Ra?" I asked her to sit in the living room.

"It's fine."

I grabbed his hand and held it tight. "Darling, I want us to get married soon."

"I want to marry you too. But I want us to stay here. I can't leave oma."

I hold back the anger in my heart. I admit that oma Yohana is very important to Mahira. But shouldn't he take that responsibility? Om Frans is the son of Oma Yohana. He was the one who was supposed to look after and take care of his mother.

"Would you like a drink?" my many.

"I can do it myself, Ted."

I kissed his hand that was in my hand. "I'm the one who made it. You like orange ice?"

"May also."

I smile. Then go to the kitchen to make her some orange ice. My hand trembled slightly as I had to drip this medicine. The medicine that I know will change the principle of life that Mahira holds all this time, which is not going to have sex before marriage.

Actually, I am very proud because Mahira is a woman who is very protective of her purity. For 4 years of our courtship, I was only allowed to kiss her without touching her other body parts. It's not like I never tried. After all I am a grown man and Mahira there is a female figure who according to many men has a near-perfect body shape. But that's not what kept me going with him for 4 years. Mahira has a sincere heart that makes the beauty radiate from within. I always feel at peace when I look into her beautiful eyes that are shaded by her lashes.

That's why, for the sake of getting Mahira's love, I'm ready to do anything, including getting rid of Edmond Moreno who is famous as a man that women never refuse.

And when Mahira finally chose me, I felt above the clouds that I could get rid of Edmond who had broken my dear sister.

"Honey, here's the drink." I said as I placed a glass filled with orange ice that had been mixed with Substance that would awaken something in Mahira.

When Mahira held the glass, there was an urge within me to prevent her from drinking. Really, deep down in my heart, I don't want to cheat Mahira. But this is the only way Mahira will come with me. The love he had for me and the principle of his life that kept him for only one man made me believe that my plan would work.

"Enak." said Mahira as she finished the orange ice.

I swallowed my saliva. My heart was pounding very fast waiting for the reaction of the medicine.

30 Minutes passed.....

Mahira started to look agitated. His face turned red and he had gone twice to the kitchen to drink cold water.

"What's up, baby?" ask me when he sits next to me. I held her hand and rubbed her arm.

"Ted, I'll just go home, okay?" he said while wiping the sweat on his face.

"Why go home? It's only 6 p.m. I usually take you home at 10 p.m. I just arrived today." I deliberately put on a sulking face and then let go of my hand that held her hand.

And I knew this would work. 4 years with her, I knew my lover's weakness.

"Ted, it's not like that. I'm...." Mahira put her hand on my arm. I sat facing him. I stroked her face with a seductive gesture.

"I miss you, Ra. Miss you so much." I whispered and kissed her shoulder. I can feel her body shaking.

"Teddy, i...!" Mahira's sentence stopped because I had already kissed her lips. This time I felt that Mahira quickly returned my kiss. Even when my hand gently slid in behind the dress she was wearing, Mahira refused. I seduced him, coaxed him and made him drunk with a touch. Indeed, several times Mahira tried to escape from me but the medicine I put into her drink has controlled her and has made her lose her mind.

Tonight I had planned carefully because I had calculated Mahira's fertile period when she called me two weeks ago and said that her stomach hurt because she had just got her moon guest on the day the first.

Mahira cried as I managed to scowl her chastity. My heart also broke as he regretted why I was and he could forget himself that night.

I'm sorry, Mahira. I hope that my seed will grow in your stomach and you will come with me to Singapore. My mind hugged him tightly.

However, Mahira apparently still insisted on not coming with me to Singapore after everything that happened. I got angry, and did the stunt go. To prove that I was seriously going to leave her, I also sold my apartment and left her things. I blocked his number and his sosmed. I'm pretty sure Mahira will follow me to Singapore because she won't be with another man especially if she's pregnant with my son.

But, I was really surprised when I saw the Princess's post containing the wedding invitation of Mahira and Edmond. My mortal enemy will now seize my beloved. I'm not gonna let this happen. As I used to prevent Edmond's brother from destroying my family.

Unfortunately my attempts to thwart the marriage did not work. I forgot Edmond was a mobster.

**********

Teddy returns from his past daydreams. He looked at Mahira who was lying in the hotel room where he was staying. He came to Samarinda because of Monalisa's invitation to cooperate in the coal mining business. Teddy also came here because he wanted to find Mahira. When viewed from the age of Mahira's child, does that mean when married to Edmond, Mahira was already pregnant?

Destiny brought them together. Teddy went to the mall because he wanted lunch. Who would have thought that he finally saw Mahira there. But Mahira doesn't look okay. And Teddy's guess is right. Mahira even fainted. There was no phone in Mahira's wallet so Teddy decided to take Mahira to his room.

The sound of the doorbell made Teddy open the door. He called the hotel to ask if a doctor could be contacted.

"Good day!" greet a woman in her 40s. "I'm doctor Dian Oktavia."

"Oh, please come in, doc!" Teddy spreading the door. Doctor Dian came in with his briefcase. He immediately saw Mahira lying on the bed.

"Your wife?" ask doctor Dian.

"Yes." Yeah." Teddy answered quickly so that the doctor did not think anything.

"What happened to him?" ask Dian's doctor while removing a telescope and a blood pressure gauge.

Dr. Dian immediately carried out his duties.

"His blood pressure is very low. Looks like your wife's been sleeping less lately. The hull is a little problematic too. Is the meal irregular?" ask doctor Dian.

"Eh, that,...." Teddy looks confused.

"You newlyweds, huh?" guess doctor Dian.

Teddy pretended to scratch his head and looked embarrassed.

Doctor Dian smiled meaningfully. "I understand. But do not exhaust your wife too much and eat if it is mealtime. I can only prescribe vitamins and heartburn medications that are safe for pregnant women."

"Doctor mean?"

"How long have you been married?"

"1 month." Teddy answered the origin.

"If your wife still often feels dizzy let alone nausea and vomiting, just buy a testpack to ensure her pregnancy. Here's the recipe."

Teddy received the paper and paid for Dian's doctor.

"When will my wife wake up, doc?" teddy asked as he walked Dr. Dian to the door.

"Maybe a little more. He no longer fainted but fell asleep from exhaustion. So try not to bother him tonight. Let your wife rest." said Dr. Dian teasingly and then walked out of the room immediately.

Teddy looked at Mahira who was still asleep. I don't think I want to send you back to Edmond. You hurt me when you married the Moreno family. But this time I'll get you back right. I'm sure deep down, there's still love stored up for me.

Teddy called the hotel and asked for a waiter to redeem the medicine for Mahira.

************

Mahira opened her eyes. He was surprised to find himself in a bed and his clothes had been replaced.

"You awake?" ask Teddy who just came out of the bathroom.

"What am I doing here?" Mahira woke up quickly but felt that her head was still hurting.

"Wake up slowly. Your doctor said your blood pressure was very low and there was a problem in your stomach. Eat it." Teddy pointed to the food that was already available on the table.

Mahira leaned her back on the head of the bed. "What happened to me? How did you change my clothes?"

"You fainted, Ira. Your dress is dirty because when you fall unconscious, your hand turns the coffee cup so that it stains your dress."

"But whose dress is this?"

"I asked the hotel maid to buy it."

"You took off my own shirt?"

"of course. I don't want your body seen by anyone else even if it's a woman."

"Fuck you, Teddy!" Mahira throws a pillow at Teddy. Slowly he got out of bed. "Where's my wallet?"

"Eat first and take your new medicine I'll let you go."

"Teddy!" Mahira starts to get emotional.

Teddy looked at Mahira sharply. "You know who I am, Mahira. If I say I won't let you go, then I will."

"I hate you, Teddy!" Mahira had to do what Teddy wanted. He ate even if only a few mouthfuls. He looked at the medicine placed there and read it. When he found out that it was a blood-boosting vitamin and gastric medicine, Mahira without hesitation drank it.

"Where's my wallet?" ask Mahira.

Teddy opens the closet and pulls out Mahira's wallet and groceries.

"I'll take you to your house."

"I brought my own car."

"You're still pale, Ira."

Mahira impatiently snatched the wallet in Teddy's hand and quickly left the room.

"Ira...., your groceries!"

And prang!!!

Mahira slammed the door.
