Chapter 4 Sleep together

Chapter 4

Oh God! This is the first time we sleep together!

I really plan to sleep here in the living room of the guest room, the couch is also big!

"I'll just wash" he let go of my hand and closed his eyes again because he said he was still dizzy,

When I entered the bathroom, all my sweat came out because of what he said, just like that! I calmed myself before I undressed and wiped my body, after wiping I got dressed and went out of the bathroom, I saw that Raiko was sleeping soundly on the bed and I rubbed her before moving to the side of the bed, there was a space in the between us because the bed is also big,

I'm still not used to sleeping next to him. a few minutes have passed but I still can't sleep,

I closed my eyes when Raiko moved, I don't know if he was awake because I had my back to him, I just felt his hand that hugged my waist and pulled me closer to him, I felt his breath on my neck! My body is so hot in our position! I'm not good at it! I know if he's drunk and he doesn't know what he's doing but I can't help but be thrilled!

I slowly faced him with his hands still hugging me, he was sleeping soundly like a child, his face was very clear, he inherited from his aunt the whiteness of his skin, his face was very smooth, thick eyebrows, sparrow soon I was overcome with sleepiness,

I woke up with no raiko by my side, I got up and looked at the time, I straightened myself up before I went down the stairs, so I only saw my aunt having coffee in the living room,

"goodmorning ija" he took a sip of his coffee and greeted him too,

"good morning auntie, is it Raiko?" I looked around but I didn't see anything,

"They are there in his father's garden, not even after talking," I looked at the garden and I saw Raiko sitting on the couch,

"Ija, come on, and let's have breakfast before you go home, please call the two of them to the garden"

"I'm here aunty" I walked to the garden to call them,

"goodmorning ija" when Tito said that, Raiko immediately turned to me,

"Good morning too, breakfast is over" He nodded and stood up,

"Come on, you have work later, you might be late" He stood up so I walked to the kitchen, he just followed me,

I didn't eat because I was still full, I didn't digest what I ate last night,

"why didn't you eat?" Raiko stopped eating and looked at me,

"I'm still full" I just had juice and a loaf of bread,

"That's new!" I glared at him because of what he said, am I really that greedy?

After we ate, we said goodbye to aunt and uncle who were leaving because they had work tomorrow at 10 o'clock so Raiko, I got in the car. while we were on the flight, I felt hungry so I held my stomach, Raiko looked at me and looked back at the road.

"Why? is there something wrong?" He asked while Fucos was still on the way.

"Ah nothing" he was not convinced by what I said, the car stopped because the red light was still on, so he looked at me as if asking, I touched my stomach so he looked at it, and he realized what I was implying,

The car started and we were going to McDonald's to do a drive thru, I was really full earlier, I don't know why I still felt hungry. After he said his order, we went to the other window to get the order.

"thank you sir!" The woman presented our order and it was too sticky to look at Raiko when the woman noticed me so she smiled as if she was ashamed of what she had done earlier,

"Here" he handed me the bag and I ate, he just ordered a pancake and an iced coffee, I immediately poured the pancake because I was so hungry, it was so delicious and so soft. The pancakes are all gone, so the ice coffee is the only thing left, but I've got a big coffee because he ordered a large one while I was enjoying what I was drinking and he suddenly took the ice coffee from my hand and drank it, he returned it right away in my hand, he returned to my hand and he looked at me so I avoided his gaze, I just turned my gaze to the outside of the window, after a while

We got home, so I hurried downstairs.

"Wait" I looked at Raiko when he called me and saw that he was holding my bag, I took it and went in,

"Thank you."

I went to the room and got dressed while I was getting dressed I remembered what happened last night, that was the first time we slept side by side and we were very close to each other,

"Hi manang, did you eat?" I saw manang when I came down the stairs,

"It's over, I just finished, why didn't you come home Gabi?" It turned to me.

"We slept there at aunt's because Raiko was very drunk last night" I sat down and looked at what my aunt was doing.

**********

I went upstairs to see if Raiko had left, I knocked first but no one answered, I went downstairs to see if his car was still there, I went out to look in the garage but his car was gone, he left that he was going to work but why didn't he say goodbye?

I'm making my boyfriend hope that he will change his attitude towards me.

Raiko repeated that she didn't come home, since we went to her parents' house, she didn't come home. It was late at night, so I just hung out in the living room while watching TV. I finished what I was watching, so I changed the channel to find something good. watching ! " Suddenly my heart stopped beating at what I saw and heard, tears came to my eyes and I covered my mouth while sobbing! I thought he was just busy at work so he didn't come home. I thought he was staying at the condo! Is that the reason why he didn't come home? Why does he have to treat me like this? I turned off the TV and slowly climbed the stairs to the bedroom, after I closed the door I was sitting there, I couldn't feel my knee anymore. I had the strength to stand up, I just cried and cried,

Tinry, if I got up again to go to my bed, when I got to my bed I covered myself with a blanket and cried over the pain I was feeling, why did this have to happen to me?

**********

I woke up to the sound of my alarm, When I opened my eye I could feel its swelling, I remembered what I saw last night on the news, my tears began to flow again,

I got up and went to the bathroom to wash my face because I could feel the tears on my face, I looked in the bathroom mirror and I could see the swelling in my eye, while I was washing I couldn't help but cry, I thought it was okay we are but not yet!

I want an answer from him, is he really not capable of loving me? I even laughed at what he said before that he can't love me. I remembered the conversation between her and her mother on the phone, was she the woman who left Raiko before? is that him? My thoughts were interrupted by someone knocking on the door of my room, I straightened myself up before opening the door, when I opened the door Aunt Amelia appeared to me I could see the sadness and worry on her face I just smiled to him and suddenly he hugged me, I sobbed on his shoulder like a child abandoned by his mother, he also saw the news last night.

"I'm sorry ija" he stroked my back to calm me down,

"No" I broke away from aunt's hug and wiped my tears "It's not your fault, don't think about anything, I understand Raiko now"

"I'm really sorry ija, I thought that Raiko had forgotten that girl, but I was wrong" aunt's tears flowed as she said that to me, you could see the disappointment and sadness on her face.

After our talk with aunt, she went home immediately because she said she had something to do, I don't blame aunt just because of what her son did, yes it was wrong and Raiko did it but I can't blame her because I didn't hold her heart, were just married on paper, and no one intervenes between us because I was the only one who fell in love, I was the only one who believed that this marriage would work, that I thought we would work together, I accepted that he can't love me, Raiko is still in prison In his past, he couldn't let me into his heart, despite what he did, I couldn't blame him because I had no right. I will still do the job as a wife, I can and will handle it no matter what happens,

Even if it is said that I am the Wife and I have the right but I can't do that right, And until I accept that I won't be able to win her heart.

**********

I left the room to go to the kitchen because I was suddenly hungry, because I didn't eat breakfast and lunch. I looked at the time and it was 4 in the afternoon.

Manang is also not there because it's his rest day for three days, so I'm the only one here at home, I just made coffee and two breads, decided to have coffee in the garden because the view is beautiful and it's cozy,

While I was having coffee, my cell phone rang from the living room I had left earlier, I took my phone from the living room and looked at it as I returned to the garden,

+09********

-hey gay! I'm going out of Manila next year, I'm going to work there, my boss is signing me-

I frowned when I read the text, but in the first text it seemed like he knew who it was, I was surprised when someone called my phone, as soon as I answered the call the phone was already away from my ear,

" that girl is terrible!

"Hey Emma chill it's like you've been kidnapped because of your scream girl!" He laughed like a madman

"Of course!! We'll always see each other because that's where my boss's mother signed me!" You can still feel the pleasure in his voice,

"Oh that's good, where are you signed?" I asked this and took a sip of my coffee because it might get cold

"My boss at a hotel in Manila said that the manager has resigned so I will take over"

"I'll call you when I go out, you'll be the one to tour me" he said excitedly so I just laughed.

"Yes! call me!" He also hung up the call because he said he still had work,

It's better if she's here so I can have someone to wander around with or when I leave I'll take Emma with me so I won't get bored here at home.

Three days passed but Raiko didn't come home, I didn't even receive a text or a call from him, I didn't sleep well every night because I wondered where he was, I couldn't help but worry to him, and even if that's what he did, I can't be angry. I just amused myself by watching the Korean Novela somehow I feel better and I forget the pains I felt in the past few days.

I'm going downstairs because manang is calling me to eat,

"Is that okay?" Manang asked curiously and looked into my eyes,

"Of course, am I still!?" I smiled and raised my arm,

"It's so swollen!" In my eyes, it means "you're really good at hiding your true feelings!" When I show what I really feel, it's like I'm weak, I don't want them to worry and think about my feelings, I can carry the pain I felt, There's only one person who wants me to sympathize with everyone , the person who will accompany me in sadness, but that person is unlikely to be mine.

"Oh, to make you feel better, I'll take you to the grocery store and pay for the water and electricity, I'll buy a lot because the refrigerator is only small" I smiled big at what manang said, I like it more really go shopping because it's so fun to do, I'll also buy chichirya so I can eat something when I go to the movies,

"Didn't Raiko come home?" I looked at manang and also returned my gaze to the food,

"No way" I just played with the food in front of me because I lost my appetite.

"Alright, get ready, I'll list what we're going to buy first" I stood up and put my food away.

"Hurry up" I ran back to the room, I just got ready and I was wearing simple trousers and a fitted crop-top and I paired it with white shoes and the sling bag that I bought at the union,

I went down immediately and waited for the manang who, after writing down what we were going to buy, soon the manang finished and we left immediately. We boarded the van and the flight was quiet, it only took a few minutes for us to reach the mall, we got off and entered, the guard checked my bag and manang's bag before entering. Manang said that we should pay for electricity first and Water and grocery shopping is late,

We got on the escalator to the third floor because that's where we were going to pay, I just waited for the manang outside because there were many people who had paid, I just looked around, I suddenly felt jealous of the couple who passed by in front of me holding hands their hands while walking while the woman kept talking while the man listened to her, they looked so cute, how I wish we were like that too. I also saw a family and friends happily eating here at the mall, Manang hugged me when he got to my place,

"There are people, it took me a long time" Manang complained so I looked at what he paid for, there were a lot of people but I didn't go inside.
