Beautiful in pain

TWO days since Adriel’s departure since their wedding day, Adriel’s not coming back made Hana wonder if Adriel didn’t come home because of her? Hana’s heart is now feeling a sense of guilt. She was daydreaming but her hands were still working wiping the wet dishes she had washed.

Tamara’s words to her are true, even though she is already Adriel’s wife, it doesn’t change the fact that she is only considered a maid at the uni house, she remembers this morning when Jeffran invited Hana to have breakfast together, but Hana didn’t want to because she got a threatening stare from Tamara.

Being too lost in her own thoughts, she didn’t realize that the plate in her hand would almost fall off if no one held it from behind.

“Are you really this reckless?” David said without taking his eyes off Hana, he then put the dry plate on the top shelf.

“Master David?” Hana immediately turned and shifted herself, because after all their position now was very close.

“Have you finished cleaning everything?” He asked again

“Already.”

“Good, now make me a snack. Since I want to eat something sweet, I wait at the dining table. Whatever it is as long as sweet food.” After asking Hana, David left to wait at the dining table. He had just come home from college when he suddenly wanted something sweet to eat. He was too lazy to buy outside.

Hana was a little tired, but what authority did she have to refuse. So she went back to picking up the kitchen utensils for her to use to make snacks, perhaps something easy and quick to make. Maybe pancakes with ice cream and honey topping are an easy choice.

It didn’t take long until the snack that David asked for was ready to be eaten, she delivered it to the dining table. And sure enough, David was still faithfully waiting there while reading a thick book which Hana thought was the material that David had to study.

Seeing the arrival of Hana who brought a snack, David closed the book he was reading. Staring at Hana who is getting closer to him, and again David will steal glances at Hana’s stomach which is getting bigger even though it is covered by the oversized shirt he is wearing now.

“Where are you going?” he said to Hana when he saw the sweet girl was about to leave the dining table.

“I have to take care of other work sir.” She said in a polite tone.

“Sit down with me to eat, I don’t like being alone.”

Seeing David eating quietly Hana finally got up the courage to sit on the chair opposite David, she put her hand on the table. He nervously fiddled with her fingers.

SREKKK

Suddenly a crackle bag landed right in front of her.

“Open it, I bought too much fruit when I was with Rita. I heard that fruit is very good for someone who is pregnant.”

Hana immediately looked at David who was back eating his snack. She lowered her head, staring with interest at the several kinds of fruit in it. Bananas, apples and oranges. It was very appetizing.

“May I?” She asked David for permission, afraid that David would be angry with her later.

“Hmm… just take them all.” David said again. “I’m done with my food.” David stood up and left to go to the kitchen, just as he was about to pass Hana’s seat he stopped.

“Pay attention to your baby’s condition, don’t be too tired. It can affect your baby’s condition too.” He said.

Hana smiled, her eyes slightly misty. At least now David is giving himself a little attention, unlike when they first met.

“Thank you.” Hana said without taking her eyes off the table.

Hearing that, David walked back to put his dirty dishes in the sink . When he put the plate down, David looked at the plate that still had honey and ice cream stains on it.

“Pancake hmm?.”

On the other side of an apartment, Adriel comes home in a mess. He’s been sleeping in his private apartment for the past two days. He didn’t want to be in a room with Hana. He took off his coat, rolled his sleeves up to his elbows. He took his cell phone, dialed a number he was trying to call but couldn’t.

“Fuck!.”

Adriel slams the cell phone on his bed, his jaw clenched and his eyes closed with emotion. He rubbed his face roughly trying to suppress the mounting emotions. But can not.

“Bastard! Fuck! Fuck!” he shouted at someone.

It’s been three days since Vania couldn’t be contacted, since the day she proposed to Vania, that’s when her lover suddenly disappeared. He knew if Vania was busy preparing herself with the new contract, she knew that her lover was very busy. But, there’s not even a minute for her to tell Adriel?

This problem made his brain very tired, many unexpected events that he experienced in just the three days that he had passed. He was really tired and fed up.

But there is a little sense of relief that he feels knowing his lover is busy preparing for his departure, it will focus his full attention on preparing for his departure to Japan, Adriel will be confused to find an excuse if Vania finds out about his marriage problems.

Honestly, Adriel didn’t want to lose Vania. Her lover.

Adriel laid his body on the bed, positioning the pillow well so that his sleep tonight was more comfortable. Hopefully. He wanted to take a moment not to think about Vania, and about the little girl in his house. Or rather, a girl who has become his life partner.
