HEART
Choosing to Survive
Psyche glares slowly.
He looked at the dark ceiling of his room. There was only the moonlight that shone through the dimness of his bedroom through the window.
Psyche looked to the side. Intended to rise but stopped when he found Adam lying there.
He turned his back without using the black shirt he had worn this morning.
Lama Psyche looked at the man's broad shoulder. It was like beating repeatedly, making it an outlet for the pain he had received so far.
And why did they end up in the same place again after that endless coachman debate?
Psyche sighed.
He thought that taking a warm bath might make his leg muscles relax a little more. His mind became calmer.
For a time, he would let Adam sleep until the man woke up on his own.
Drrt—drrt's chat.
Psyche's attention was turned back when her phone blinked several times over the nightstand.
Adam seemed to have fallen asleep completely, as the vibration of the phone was loud enough to wake him up.
Psyche hastily grabbed her phone, making the loud noise come to a halt.
His forehead frowned upon finding some missed messages and calls on behalf of Leon.
‘You okay? Why refuse my call?’
Refuse?
Psyche.
Could it...
Psyche hurriedly checked the inbox and found some messages from Leon that would have been read by Adam.
‘Today you're off, right? How about watching together?’
Psyche, this isn't going to be easy.
But, other than that, how could Adam know his mobile password?

When Psyche turned off the stove, Adam came out of the room with the same clothes. What makes it different is his wet hair and the smell of soap that belongs to Psyche that emanates from the man's body.
Psyche turned her head for a while while pouring seasoning into her instant noodles.
“I've ordered pizza and burgers for you, wait a minute.”
Adam did not immediately respond. His eyes followed Psyche who was now walking towards the sofa with a can of soda as well as noodles that were still steaming.
“You order pizza and burgers and then you eat that instant noodles?” Adam approached Psyche and stood beside her.
Psyche. His sight was patient and calm. “I said I ordered for you.” Clearly before returning to focus on the impressions that are depicted on television.
Adam folded both hands on his chest. His eyes narrowed as his brain remembered something. “Is that some kind of bribe because I managed to catch you cheating?”
Even Psyche is ready with all the accusations that he has predicted before.
“He's an old friend of mine, don't exaggerate.”
“Didn't he overdo it by having his girlfriend watch?”
Psyche sipped her noodles quietly. “Then what should I say to a man who let his girlfriend hug him in front of her own lover?”
Adam laughed cynically. “Oh? You want revenge?”
Psyche shook her head quickly. “I've been honest with you. Please let me eat quietly.”
Adam grunting.
“Eat your night.” He put the parcel on the table. Adam was sitting on the couch with his legs crossed.
The man did not react.
Psyche sighed. Without a word he took out all the food in the parcel and directed one hamburger into Adam's mouth. Intended to bribe him, but again the man just stared at him flatly.
Psyche clucked to all the stubbornness of the man. For whatever reason, he could have thrown the man out of his apartment right now.
But he's still sane. That's not the way to tame Adam.
“Make all this easier, Adam.”
Psyche used one hand to hold the man's nape and stuffed the burger into his mouth.
Adam swerved with his cheeks, but the man kept chewing his food.
Psyche smiled with satisfaction.
At least Adam didn't spit out the food.
A good advance.

“Psyche Heartfillia?”
Psyche was a little bewildered when a voice startled her from behind. His body automatically turned around, facing a red-haired woman whom he clearly recognized.
It's a total coincidence. He must be being s*al because lately have to deal with women who have been in a relationship with his lover.
“You Psyche Heartfillia, right?”
Psyche nodded in her confusion. “You know me?”
“Of course.” Karin smiled briefly. “All the men in the office are talking about you.”
Psyche did not feel that it was a compliment because Karin did not seem to intend to flatter her either.
It is like a fact that confirms that new employees seem to always be the target of striped men.
“Everyone in the office also talked about you when you were dating my boss, Mrs Karin.”
As expected, the woman's expression quickly changed.
“Adam, yes?” He said while throwing his face away. “It's been the past. After all, any woman who dates him must always be the talk of.”
Both of Psyche's shoulders were raised. “Well, I think you surprised everyone the most because finally—malah—married another man.” Psyche turned back while pushing her trolley. “Sorry, I don't have much time because someone is waiting for me under.”
“Adam knows I'm getting married.”
Karin said suddenly that made Psyche step back to a halt.
The woman turned her head. I don't understand what Karin said.
“Sorry?” Psyche asked with raised eyebrows.
“For so long people thought that I was the poor woman that Adam dumped and in the end chose to marry another man.” Karin held back her words and made Psyche even more unwilling to hear the continuation.
It's not ready. Especially when Karin looks a little holding her gel smile there.
“But actually what happened was that I married the man I dated for the past five years. And Adam?” Karin wagged while laughing blandly. “We are just looking for fun. I know she was also in a relationship with Miranda back then.”
