Heaven On You

Part 6

Henry drove his Range Rover to get into the condominium, which he had purchased the day after returning to Malaysia after 20 years in London. His appointment with the customer this afternoon was a success. According to him, a luxury home building project is currently underway. Sophie. Well, why did I call her by her given name? Henry let out a sigh.

A phone call from his girlfriend, Nicole, at precisely five o'clock in the afternoon reminded him that he had an appointment with the girl. He had only met the girl he had met while sitting in Petaling Jaya a few times.

They meet accidentally on the plane when the girl is sitting next to him. She is a stewardess for one of the airlines in Malaysia. Since then, their relationship has become more severe over the past half-year. Their relationship is now quite limited since Henry moved to Kuala Lumpur and settled there continuously.

Imagine the beautiful and stylish face of Nicole. Surely tonight will cure the longing for the girl. Suddenly out of nowhere, Sophie's lovely and soft face crossed in front of his eyes. A smile etched on Henry's lips. Ah, Nicole and Sophie are very different.

Arriving at his condominium on the 10th floor, Henry found that Nicole was watching television. Nicole has duplicate keys to the house, and they used to sleep together like husband and wife even though they were not married. Henry himself wasn't sure if he loved the girl or not or just wanted to fill the space in his man's heart craving caress from a woman. He wants to have fun, not ready to shoulder responsibilities in a marriage that he considers unimportant. That's enough of a relationship.

"It's been a long time!" Henry whispered to the young lady who was lying on the sofa, resting. Nicole made a sour face. Henry kissed the girl's face after pulling her into his arms and kissing her. Sophie's cheeks became flushed, and her eyes widened. Oh, this chick was the one that threw me off my game.

"You seem to have forgotten our agreement," Nicole remarked.

"Okay, I'll make up for my mistake. What kind of restaurant do you want to go to? "repeats Henry.

"you want something...?"Nicole's finger softly stroked Henry's chest, and the sensation was very enticing. 

"Yeah. What is it?" Nicole's heart sang merrily. Once again, she was able to win the rich man's heart. Nicole pulled Henry's hand into the man's bedroom. Even if there is no legal relationship, treat them as if they are husband and wife. Sophie's face disappeared behind Nicole's warm caress.

The night was still early when Henry woke up from his sleep. Nicole, who fell asleep next to him, was meditating. A heavy groan came out of Henry's mouth. For some reason, he felt that there was something wrong with their free relationship. Henry got up and put on his boxer shorts. Henry left the room and stepped onto the veranda. His distant eyes stared into the darkness. The rain cooled the atmosphere. Sophie. He whispered. He had been with Nicole for a while, but now what was in his eyes and heart was Sophie. Henry did not understand his feelings.

Why did the girl's shadow suddenly play in my mind? The girl's gentleness in serving her grandmother, her father, illustrates the sincerity of the girl's heart. What's with that girl that makes me crazy? Sophie's soft face was not as beautiful as the faces of the girls he had been with, the girls who readily gave up their bodies, but Sophie's face bothered him day and night. Nicole's body no longer gives pleasure to Henry; he feels bland and tasteless, not as attractive as always. Only one person was making him complain. Sophie. Henry whispered again.

Sophie suddenly woke up in her bed. She was able to get out of bed. Her heart was pounding and incoherent. The girl doesn't know why. She looked at the clock on the wall; it was only 1 a.m. But why wake up suddenly? Lazily, Sophie got up and looked at Mrs. Natalie's bed. The older woman was sleeping in a dream. Sophie fell asleep after she read the novel she had just bought. Her heart kept beating fast. Did something terrible happen? Sophie remembered her parents in the village. Tomorrow she will call them. It has been a long time since Sophie returned to the town due to Mrs.Natalie's unsatisfactory health. Guilt arises because she puts her employer before her parents. She lay back on her bed. Ah, it's hard to sleep.

Sophie tried to close her eyes. Suddenly, Henry's mischievous smile appeared in her mind. Sophie opened her eyes immediately. Anyway, a dream nonetheless. Who are you in the eyes of that playboy? Then she closed her eyes again. Despite the sadness she felt for a moment, her lips carved a smile when the memories of last evening came back to mind. Sophie could only dream. There was no way she expected more than that. She is also an ordinary human being with instincts and desires.
