Chapter 9 Paloma


Paloma then opened his eyes. He then loosened his hand and released Jacob's embrace. Jacob then let go of his embrace and then they sat in his place again and looked at each other. Jacob then closed his eyes and held his head. He suddenly felt his head throbbing and hurting. Paloma who saw this immediately said to Jacob.


"Bring it up, so you feel fresh. It's all in the bathroom." Paloma.


Jacob then got up from his seat and put his foot into the bathroom. Jacob was actually afraid of leaving Paloma alone. Afraid Paloma will do the no-no more. But he was eager to take a bath, refreshing his body and mind that was too tired.


Jacob undid all his clothes. Her body whose field was splashed with refreshing water. He let his head sprayed with water coming out of the bathroom shower. Thirty minutes later, Jacob finished his bath. He was wearing a towel that was available in the bathroom. Paloma did deliberately prepare a lot of towels neatly arranged in the bathroom cabinet.


Jacob then put his clothes back on because he did not bring a change of clothes. After that he returned to the sofa where Paloma was sitting. When Jacob came, Paloma offered him a meal.


"Would you like some breakfast?" Paloma asked in an uninspired tone.


Jacob nodded his head and then followed Paloma's steps towards the dining table. Jacob saw at the dinner table there was already a sandwich with sliced smoked turkey, omelets, heart blood juice made from beetroot, whole wheat bread, sliced zuccini made square, which was made from the fruit, shaved carrots, tomatoes and also some pieces of lettuce and purple cabbage that have been cut into pieces.


"You prepared all this, Paloma?" Ask Jacob.


"Yes, I prepare when you shower." Answer Paloma.


Then they pulled up their respective chairs at the dining table and sat facing each other. Then Paloma took a comb of wheat bread and mayonnaise. He smeared the wheat bread with mayonnaise and added it with omelets, zuccini and a few pieces of purple cabbage. While Jacob took a sandwich that was filled with turkey smoke and added it with some tomato pieces and 1 glass of heart blood juice.


Paloma ate with his face down. While Jacob ate his sandwich while staring at Paloma's pretty face, it looked pale. They are silent and do not say anything, carried away by the feelings that exist in each of them.


While enjoying their feelings, Jacob's phone suddenly rang. They were both shocked by Jacob's cell phone voice.


"Sorry.." Jacob said to Paloma who was staring at him.


Jacob then picks up the phone in his pants pocket and it turns out that Jacob's manager called him.


"Jacob, where are you now? I'm in your apartment now?" His manager said with worried words.


"I.." before Jacob continued his sentence, Paloma immediately stood up and covered Jacob's mouth with his hand.


Seeing Paloma's reaction like that, Jacob was startled and then quickly turned off his phone. Then he put the phone back in his pants pocket.


"What's up, Paloma?" Jacob asked with a still shocked feeling.


"Don't tell me you're here, I'm afraid that your manager will invite reporters here." Paloma said as he sat back in his seat.


"Do you want to go home now?" Ask Paloma.


"Did you kick me out of here, Paloma?" Jacob stared at Paloma.


"Don't you love me, Paloma?" Jacob asked further with curiosity.


Paloma was silent for a moment and then he replied :


"No." He said while bowing his face.


Jacob sighed heavily, then he continued his words.


"That means I misjudged you, Paloma." Jacob said, standing up from his seat.


"But we can still be friends" Paloma replied while standing.


"Make what? Now I think of us as strangers and don't know each other." Jacob tries to provoke valuma emotions.


Sure enough, Paloma immediately provoked his emotions. He lowered his face and then he cried. After that he immediately hugged Jacob who was in front of him. Jacob was silent for a moment, then returned Paloma's embrace. With hesitation, Jacob aligned his face with Paloma's and then kissed Paloma's lips. Paloma first hesitates to return Jacob's kiss. But the feeling of love that he had in his heart made him dare to do further. Paloma returns Jacob's kiss. They kiss each other softly and with all their heart. They shed all the feelings that are inside of them. For a long time they kissed each other, so Jacob dared to lift Paloma's body and move it to Paloma's bedroom.


In the bedroom, Jacob and Paloma kiss again. They kiss each other with passion. Jacob acted more boldly by undressing the ones on Paloma's body one after another. Jacob's hands began to act throughout Paloma's body. Until finally after their clothes have all been on the floor, they have a husband and wife relationship based on the love that is in their hearts.


Love finally defeats everything. Defeat the ego that is in each of them, including the messages of grandmothers who have been indoctrinated in Paloma.


***


Paloma is getting busy with her career. He took a lot of job offers addressed to him. On the sidelines of his busy life, he wants to continue his education by studying a master program in Los Angeles. It was done so that he could stay longer in Los Angeles and so that he could keep in touch with Jacob, his lover. He did it all for the love that dwells in his heart.


He realized that he was now 20 years old, where he was required to marry a man who had been betrothed by his grandmother. He was eager to postpone the match so that by busy career and join the Master program for 2 years, it is the right way and reason to be conveyed to his father and grandmother to postpone the match.


Frankly, Paloma was very afraid to quickly marry the man who was betrothed by his family. While his grandmother had often reminded him to quickly return to Bali. But unfortunately, Paloma rejected her grandmother's request subtly for thousands of reasons.


He knew that day was coming, the day he had to give up his love for Jacob. But he was not willing if he had to part with Jacob. He also did not imagine how he would be able to live with people he did not love. Just imagining and thinking about it already made his chest feel tight. He felt sad and sad.
