Alea woke up, when a scream was heard right beside her. He immediately turned her head and found Dylan lying on her back beside her and stared at Alea in a daze, his whole body covered in blood and wounds. “Alea?” he called softly, Alea immediately got up from her sleep, sat beside Dylan and held the man's hand tightly. Even though she used to hate Dylan, he was the man who was always there when Alea was in a difficult situation. “Dylan!” Alea didn't realize she was sobbing, her hand stretched out and tried to wipe the blood off Dylan's face. But Dylan instead smiled broadly, and also tightened Alea's hand. "Dylan." Alea cried even more when Dylan coughed and blood came out of his cough, Alea became more hysterical and hugged Dylan's body. "UHUK UHUK— Alea, listen. Run now and get as far away as you can." Dylan took out the wallet that was in his jacket and gave it to Alea. "Use this money, and leave now." Alea shook her head vigorously, refusing Dylan's request. "No Dyl
Alea woke up with puffy eyes and her body feeling crushed, she felt nausea again quickly. Alea got out of bed and immediately jogged towards the bathroom.Her morning sickness got worse because she didn't eat all day, all she released from her stomach was only liquid that made her stomach ache. Alea sighed roughly, it appears that today she has to eat something to keep the baby healthy. Even though she didn't have an appetite, Alea ate the bread she had just baked while sitting, daydreaming. The atmosphere is still the same, silent. Making Alea feel that she is missing Dylan even more, even though this house belongs to that man but Alea, who incidentally is a stranger, still lives here as she pleases. After finishing breakfast, Alea packed some of her things in a suitcase belonging to Dylan. As per Dylan's request, she will leave now. Going very far away, where no one recognized her.She reached into her cellphone and made a flight booking to the place where she and her child w
"So what's your name?" asked a white-skinned middle-aged woman with glasses perched on her nose, her eyes looking at Alea waiting for the woman sitting in front of her to answer the question she asked. "Cathleen, Cathleen Alexandra," Alea answered with a crooked smile. Alea had prepared everything, changed her name and some personal data which she had also prepared with her new name, now in this city her name is not Alea. But Cathleen Alexandra. The middle-aged woman named Abby nodded her head, looked back at Alethea's personal data and smiled too. "Cathleen, even if you don't have any experience yet, I hope you can work hard and you can come back tomorrow morning." Hearing Abby's answer, who was now officially her boss, Alea smiled broadly and nodded her head vigorously. "But is it okay even if you're pregnant?" Abby's face now looks worried. "It's okay," Alea replied excitedly. Seeing Alea's smiling face, Abby smiled again and nodded her head slowly.“I hope it’s nice work
Crowded visitors kept Alea busy with several orders from customers because it was already lunch time, so it's no wonder that many people intend to eat their lunch after a long day of work. "Waiter, here!" called a woman in office clothes while waving her hand at Alea. Quickly after finishing receiving other orders, Alethea immediately stepped towards the woman's table and was ready to write her order. "Al?" Alea, who was about to write an order, turned around and found her neighbor Archi, whom she had met 5 days ago at the supermarket – as well as a neighbor sitting with the woman who had called her earlier. "Er, hello Archi! So you two are ready to order the food?" asked Alea a little awkwardly, after greeting Archi now her eyes were back on the woman sitting across from Archi. "Ste–" "What's your recommendation?" asked Archi interrupting the woman who came with him, then looked back at Alea with his sparkling eyes. Even though she was confused, Alea just smiled and starte
"Mr. Eros, the models have arrived." Eros, who was working on some of his reports, reflexively turned his head when his secretary suddenly entered his room. Eros nodded his head, took off the glasses that had been perched on his sharp nose and got up from his seat. He walked with his secretary to the room where the models for the new products that his company would release were. "Good afternoon sir, so this model will be the Brand Ambassador for a product that we will release soon sir," said one of the employees in charge while giving instructions to Eros to come to one of the rooms. "Here sir," he said again by pointing to a meeting room door, Eros casually nodded his head and then entered the room. There were 3 people in the room, 2 women and 1 man. Eros awkwardly smiled and reached out his hand to a woman with shoulder-length light brown hair. Eros could guess that this 20-year-old woman had mixed blood. Her sweet smile also made her remember Alea's sweet smile. "Sir?" His
Eros looked at himself in the mirror with a coat on his body, if only Alea was still around his wife would definitely accompany him as usual to every company event. Again, Alea's name always tucked in, whatever he did, he would always imagine that Alea was still by his side. When other people are present with their partners, Eros has to come alone. Eros laughed sadly, his life was getting sadder without Alea. After finishing getting ready, Eros stepped out of his room and drove his car towards the 5 star hotel, where his company event was being held. Apart from himself, his younger sibling – Rival, as well as his parents were present because the event was somewhat important. Several clients from other large companies also came to see the launch of the company's new product. "Eros!" Eros waved his hand and smiled broadly, Rival and his parents stood not far from where he was and also waved his hand with a happy face. "You been here long?" asked Eros while hugging his favorite
The sound of a knock broke Eros's focus, he looked at the clock on the wall of his office room and sighed. He was so focused on work, he didn't realize that it was already 5 pm – when he should have gone home. "Come in." Eros shouted while massaging his head which started to hurt because he didn't eat lunch, Eros felt his body feel weak. The door opened and a girl with a cheerful smile appeared, a mulatto girl with light brown hair in two pigtails. Judging from the makeup on her face, Eros could guess that the girl had just finished a photo shoot. He and Laura are getting closer, because he feels guilty because when the company event took place he made Laura have to face her terrible attitude when she remembered Alea again. Alea should be a fond memory for him. Instead of being, memories that make his mood shattered when he remembers it. Because of that Eros let Laura be around him, even the girl always sent him thousands of messages. Actually Eros felt a little uncomfortabl
Maybe 8 months have passed, today is the day of her expected birth. Soon Alea will meet her son, the son who is the only reason Alea is alive until now. But unfortunately, she had to feel her contractions in the middle of the night, a time when it was very difficult to seek help. With panting breath and sweat drenching her forehead, Alea got up from her bed and stepped carefully out of her bedroom.She kept thinking, what ride should she take to go to the hospital because in the middle of the night like this it is very rare for a taxi or other public transportation to take her. Walk? just imagining it, Alea felt like fainting, the distance between the hospital and her apartment was quite far, so Alea felt that walking was not the right choice. Until Archi's name crossed her mind, right! Archi, a man who has been accompanying Alea for almost 8 months in this city. Trying to strengthen herself, Alea took a bag for her needs to stay at the hospital later and walked slowly out of he
