Chapter 6 6

"I'm so mad at you, I'm really mad. Why, at a time like this, aren't you showing any expression?"

The girl even cried and laughed at the same time, continuously playing with Alex's cheek, which felt as soft as slime.

"Why, Alex, why aren't you even angry or laughing? Show me one expression," Irsya pleaded.

Alex held Irsya's hand, which had been pinching his cheek like slime all along. He looked into her eyes, causing Irsya to just lower her head, not wanting to show her increasingly reddened face.

"You're a girl full of expressions. If I add an expression, then you won't be visible. No matter my expression, what's most important is your expression."

Irsya cried even more, resting her head on Alex's chest because she was only as tall as his shoulders. She wet Alex's clothes with her tears.

"Cry," Alex said.

Alex's hands hugged Irsya's body, he stroked Irsya's head gently making the girl feel very comfortable, the girl sobbed and hugged Alex's body tightly

"Just take it all out. That's right, don't ever hold back your tears, "

Irsya nodded, she couldn't even hold back her tears anymore and just sobbed making her heart ache.

"This really hurts Alex. When a child sees his mother sleeping with his mistress. I've seen everyone hearing that sound since I was fifteen years old, it's depressing me."

"I should have come earlier. Sorry I'm late to see you."

Irsya wept even more, she held Alex's back tightly and sobbed, feeling her heart ache.

"How many girls have you slept with?" asked Irsya

Alex was shocked, his eyes widened but he still didn't have a facial expression, he held Irsya's shoulder and looked into her eyes with a surprised and confused look.

"What are you asking, how many girls have I slept with?" asked Alex surprised

"Your mouth is very sweet, your attitude treats me like a queen and you make me very comfortable, of course you don't just sleep with one girl, right? You must have slept with at least four girls."

Alex removed his hand from Irsya's shoulder as he sighed, he left Irsya alone in the room while he went somewhere.

"Is he mad at me?"

Irsya felt very guilty for her question which made Alex offended and surprised.

"But, if he has never slept with anyone. How can he act like that, how can he act like a very nice man, treat me like a queen and take care of me so well like this. But, why is he mad at me. Shouldn't you be comparing me to the girl he slept with?"

Irsya sighed roughly as she screamed confused, she lay her body right on the mattress which felt very comfortable making her bite her lower lip with her heart racing fast.

"Is this the bed? It felt so comfortable, how could a man sleep in a bed like this. It's like sleeping on a cloud."

Irsya saw Alex who had just returned to his room, making the girl immediately feel very awkward and uncomfortable.

"I am sorry!" Irsya said nervously

Alex glanced at him "Don't mind it, go to sleep. Tomorrow you have to go to school."

Irsya saw Alex sitting on a bench reading a book, he looked relaxed and with a very flat expression on his face made Irsya really want to disturb him.

"Alex, do you believe in angels?" asked Irsya

"Yes, all the books in the world also mention the existence of angels, albeit by different names."

"Do you think angels can come down to Earth and choose a woman to marry?" asked Irsya.

"I think you're very tired right now. Go to sleep before you start thinking about how to summon angels to come down to Earth," Alex replied.

Alex got up from his seat and covered Irsya with a blanket.

"Sleep, don't fantasize about impossible things, okay?"

"But how do you summon an angel to come down to Earth?" Irsya asked, looking puzzled.

"Which book are you reading right now that's giving you thoughts like that? Don't dwell on things that can't happen, go to sleep now."

Irsya fell silent and held her blanket tightly, then whispered again.

"Where did you learn all these ways to treat a woman so well, from books or from your experiences?"

Alex remained silent and didn't want to talk much. He sat back down on the bench and picked up the book he had been reading.

"All right, good night, Alex."

Just as she was about to go to sleep, Irsya woke up hearing the sound of glass breaking very close to her, causing her to startle.

"Alex!" Irsya exclaimed.

Irsya quickly got up from her bed and went to find where Alex was. She saw Alex in the living room, holding a bottle of pills and a glass on the table.

"Alex! What's happening to you?"

Alex tightly grasped Irsya's shoulder, wincing in pain, which made Irsya both panicked and confused.

"Alex, what's happening to you? Say something, Alex," Irsya said, very worried.

"Please, fetch me something from that drawer over there," Alex requested.

Irsya immediately ran and bumped into the table, bruising her leg. She was in a state of panic as she searched for something in the drawer.

"Is this it?" Irsya asked, showing a small clear bottle.

"Yes," Alex replied.

Irsya handed it to Alex, who immediately took it and calmed down. Meanwhile, Irsya endured the pain in her leg.

"How's your leg?" Alex asked.

"I should be asking how you're doing now. You scared me," Irsya said, worried.

"It's like there's a bomb going off inside my head. Your leg must be bruised."

"Let it be, right now, the most important thing is you. I was so scared you might die. Don't ever do that again. I really don't want to lose you, even though I don't like you," Irsya explained.

Irsya was surprised when Alex knelt in front of her, then he lifted her leg slightly and placed it on his thigh, examining the bruised leg.
