Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

"Why are you drinking here?"

The man noted that there were many empty glasses in front of Jonas, and the bartender was still making more drinks for him. The level of alcohol content in the glass was higher than what was normally expected in such a small glass.

"Because this is where I stopped the car."

Jonas drank up all the wine that was remaining in the glass. It was a little strong and it burned his throat but he immediately felt happy after ingesting it.

"I have made a reservation. Let's move to the VIP section."

The man sensed that there was something bothering Jonas, when he noticed how disheveled he looked. A strong pungent alcoholic smell emanated from his body, an indication that he had been drinking for a while. This was always the case when they were in college, Jonas would always silently drink away his problems, and they would always go to this pub until whatever was bothering him had been sorted. Now it felt as if they were back to their college days.

Jonas didn't refuse. He was upset and in a state, so he needed someone to listen to him and bounce off his problems. His friend had come at the perfect time, just like when they were in the college.

They both took their seats and before they could even settle down, they had attracted attentions like nectar to bees. Jonas had always attracted attention wherever he went, especially from the opposite sex. He had a fine and perfectly symmetrical bone structure which made him look manly. He looked more striking and approachable due to the slight alcohol induced flush that made his cheeks appear rosy. People from the nearby tables were throwing looks at them, most of whom were college students out for a thrill.

"I see, you haven't lost your charm. You are still as popular as before," the man said jokingly with a smile.

Then he poured a glass of wine for each of them, and gave a pair of dice to Jonas. The two silently begun playing just to kill time.

Generally the man wouldn't be a match for Jonas, but today, Jonas was on the losing end.

"Are you intentionally letting me win?"

The man saw that Jonas was drinking the wine like water and deliberately making himself drunk, so he stopped playing the dice for a while and looked at Jonas seriously.

As he looked at the so many faces of people in pub, the only face that kept haunting Jonas's mind was Melinda's angry face, his brows furrowed fiercely trying to get that image out of his head.

"Why is this woman so troublesome today? I..."

By that time, Jonas was drunk beyond his normal limit so his tongue was loose. Looking at his old friend, he could not help but speak out all he had been hiding in his heart.

It was interesting that every time he talked about Melinda, he wore a smile on his face. On the contrary, when he talked about Emily, it was with obvious disgust and indifference.

"Jonas, it seems that in all these years, your emotional intelligence has still never developed," his friend said helplessly.

Although Jonas had excelled academically, in different fields and had obviously done well for himself in the business world, his emotional intelligence was still very low.

Actually, when it came to how to handle other issued, Jonas was good and quite intuitive, but when it came to relationships, he was not sharp enough.

In many cases, he was not able to distinguish his feeling towards others and understand whether he loved them or not.
