(Davendra)
In my sleep, I can feel Citra hugging me very tightly. Her breath felt warm against my chest. She curled up in the cold and pulled up the thick blanket. Suddenly, she sat up and looked around. Maybe she saw me sleeping and bare-chested. Then she immediately got off and ran to the bathroom. I was still half-conscious when Citra woke up and tried to fall back asleep because I was very sleepy. But the noise in the toilet bothered me.
I quickly took off the covers and stepped into the bathroom. Citra is sitting in front of the toilet. She vomited all the contents of her stomach. I stroked her back to the back of her neck and gave her a bottle of mineral water. She grabbed it and took a sip.
"There's still some wine left, and you can finish it." I quipped. Citra didn't answer me. She was busy taking deep breaths and exhaling them many times to keep from throwing up again. Instantly, she stood up and returned to the bed and wr
(Kayshila)After Manila, I didn't meet Ishan because he had to return to Singapore for business. I'm used to it, so I can focus on other things. Today, the air conditioner in the building is very cold. Maybe it's because it's raining hard outside. Inggrid and I walked as usual to our office after lunch in the building's cafeteria. I found someone familiar standing in the middle of the downstairs lobby as we were about to head for the elevator. Edric. He seemed to be waiting for me while holding his phone. I walked over to her holding Ingrid's hand for her to follow me."Why are you here?" I asked bluntly and looked displeased, curious at the same time. Inggrid was still confused."I'm waiting for you. After we met in Manila, I thought, you unblocked my number." Edric smiled. His smile made me swoon and made the hairs on my neck stand on end. I let go of Ingrid's hand that I had been holding."What's wrong with wanting to mee
(Kayshila)This morning was very warm, maybe because I forgot to close the curtains on the bedroom window that hung in front of me. So the sunlight had entered the room. Actually, there is something strange. Ever since I opened my eyes, something has hit my body. I spread the blanket and looked inside. A big hand wrapped around my waist. Instantly I sat up and looked beside me; Ishan?!"Hmm, Citra. Don't disturb me while I sleep," he said, annoyed, and turned his back to me. I could feel his tired voice. For a while, I could only see his back and got out of bed. Ishan didn't move at all. He's sleeping soundly. It occurred to me why I was in his room last night. He must have thought that I was thinking about him when I texted him.I saw his suitcase lying in his dressing room and opened it. It looks full from the outside. It turns out that his clothes were deliberately piled up and not folded. I took it all out and
(Kirana)I fumbled for my cell phone, which was ringing loudly. Not an alarm but an incoming call."Hello.""Morning, Citra."I looked at my phone screen, and there was a regular phone number on it. Her voice is like Ishan's Mama. My brain is still not working."Morning," I replied lazily while rubbing my eyes."Sorry, I woke up early. You don't have to go home this morning?" Oh yeah, right. This is Mama Ishan's voice."Why, Mrs.?""Daven said he had business.""Oh, I see…."Why is Ishan on business and not informing me directly? Why did his mother have to call me?"If Daven can't, let me just go there." I offer."Coincidentally, Auntie and Om have urgent business." Mama Ishan's voice was a bit different. "Alright then. Please continue your sleep."Mama Ishan hung up the phone quickly. I fell back asleep until noon, and my phone rang again."Hello."
(Meira)The bell rang loudly. I got up from my couch and walked towards the door. Open it quickly. This man looks messy and miserable."You're still not successful to get her?" I asked him because he went straight into the hotel room.That man plopped down on the sofa. He took a sip of the wine I just drank a little in the glass."She's not interested in me anymore," he said. There was a feeling of despair in his voice."Oh?? Right, this is the deal; you have to retake Citra from Daven!" I'm very emotional."Her gaze is different from mine.""Yeah, I don't want to know. That's your business!" I shouted. "If you can't, I have to use the next step.""You want to kidnap and torture her again?" he asked, a little scared."Don't you often torture her?"This man, Edric, Citra's ex-fiancé, was speechless. He looked at the wine bottle."I have to get Davendra before they get ma
(Davendra)I dialed Citra's number in a hurry. Not pick up. What was she doing with her ex-fiancé!? I'm really going crazy. Until I slammed the apartment door loudly. I waited for more than an hour for her to come home, but she never came. I'm still busy calling Citra.And…The sound of the apartment door lock password rang and the door automatically opened. I helped her open the door. Citra appeared with a surprised face."Where have you been!!" I shouted."When you arrived?" Citra asked while looking at her watch. She just walked in."Citra, I ask you!" My voice rose. Angry."Can you lower your voice?" She stopped and looked at me. Her face was very flat. As if unaffected by my anger.I grabbed my phone and opened something for her.Citra was take off her blazer. On the screen of my cellphone, I see a photo of her with Edric on social media. She took my phone quickly and loo
(Kayshila)I was seated in a plastic chair that seemed brand new. My hands are tied behind my back. I felt my wrist hurt so badly that my veins were squeezed. Edric tied my hands with a hard fibre rope. Especially my feet. I was tied together with a slightly larger fibre rope. It seems that Edric has prepared this, assisted by Meira. I remember incident after incident since I came to the restaurant at half-past noon. As far as I know, the restaurant is still quiet. Only Selvi I saw, and she gave me a glass of cold ocha. After that, I looked at my phone, and I don't remember anything. I recalled. The result is nil.Edric took off the tape that was in my mouth roughly. It doesn't feel very good."You! Edric! What are you doing?!" I shouted. I'm so angry. It's been hours I've been left like this, and Edric is just pacing in front of me. His face is scary. I remember his face that used to torture me. Even now, he still wants to torture
(Davendra)When Citra was lost,My cell phone rang and woke me up—half-past two in the afternoon. I slept well last night. I don't know if this is because Citra accepted my proposal and I feel calm. When I woke up, my cell phone didn't stop ringing. I sat up in shock."Hello," I answered lazily."Bro, where are you?" asked one of my close friends. Although not very close, we are close enough. I don't know why Randy called me even though I belonged to the one who had not hung out at clubbing or any bar with him."Hmm… I'm in the apartment."I started to stand up, took a glass of mineral water, and drank it straight. I opened the bedroom door and checked whether Citra was awake or not because the apartment's condition when I woke up seemed quiet. There was no sound."Do you have an apartment?" asked Randy curiously."Yes, my fiance's apartment.""Which one was yo
(Davendra)My legs are weak, but I try to be strong. I waited for Citra outside the operating room. I waited almost an hour. After that, Cath came rushing to carry Aurora. This morning Catherine was too stressed to think about Citra. Catherine told me that every time she got a call from someone telling her that Citra was in the hospital or that she found her unconscious, she tried to commit suicide."I can breathe a sigh of relief when Citra gets to know you," Cath said. Her eyes are sad. "I see; she is always dependent on you."Catherine holds my hand. She was gripping it."At first, Rangga didn't agree with Citra having a relationship with you. But I convinced Rangga to let Citra make her own choices." Catherine smiled at me. Her face is beautiful.She speaks Indonesian fluently, even barely standard. Meanwhile, Rangga was seen looking at his cellphone screen with Aurora watching something. Aurora w
