I HATE YOU, BUT
#65
Alena may still freeze in place if Jeane's friendly voice is not heard. The woman flinched then her round eyes blinked several times trying to make sure the figure in front of her was not a mirage. Upon awakening, he laboriously let out a voice.
“I didn't think you'd be here.” Jeane laughed lightly while confirming the location of the bag strap on her shoulder.
“I just want to visit, I haven't been here long enough. Can I come in?” Alena, who realized that she had been disrespectful to the guests, immediately opened the door wide and invited Jeane in.
“Davian is not here, yes, if you want to meet him.” Jeane stopped looking at the apartment and turned to Alena.
“Why do you think I'm here to meet Davian?”
Jeane's words made Alena aghast and stammered at the same time. Jeane's right, why does he think that way? God, he's been thinking a no-no.
“Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. But didn't you come here to meet him?” Alena didn't mean to offend Jeane, but wasn't that the reality? Jeane knew which incident Alena was referring to, therefore she simply smiled knotfully.
“I want to meet you, of course.” Jeane's expression is really sincere when saying it because of that Alena can't think of anything bad about her anymore. He immediately showed a friendly smile.
“Of course I know,” Alena walked towards the kitchen to prepare a drink. He invited Jeane to sit in a high chair in front of a small bar table near the kitchen.
“How are you?” Alena asked with her hands kept busy making tea for Jeane.
“Alright,”
Alena tried to ignore the story she heard from Sena. After observing Jeane today however normal the girl looked and was perfectly healthy. Maybe Jeane was sick when they met at the hospital.
Jeane muttered a word of thanks as Alena placed a cup of tea in front of her then sat down on another chair right beside her.
“You are completely different to most wives,” Jeane stared at Alena in awe.
“You are not angry and let your husband's ex-lover into your house.” Alena smiled shyly as she felt that Jeane was praising her,
“Are we not friends?” he said with a soft look. Sontak Jeane widened her eyes to hear the word ‘friend’ that she had not heard for a long time from people. He never really had a friend.
“If I keep glued to the past, how can I establish a good relationship with someone in the future? I trust you that you won't do anything evil again.”
Jeane only nodded lightly, he took the teacup and sipped it a little. Alena's words made Jeane's rumbling heart slightly muffled. Jeane continues to convince herself that Alena is a good girl. He continued to provoke his own thoughts with positive things.
“Davian treat you well?”
“Yes, she's so nice. Even she's been getting romantic ever since I was pregnant,” Alena rubbed her belly lovingly. then Alena started telling her about how romantic Davian was to her and how the man treated her so well.
Jeane had to grab her cup because suddenly her heart was burning.
I can't get out of control, I can't get out of control. Alena's a good girl, she thinks I'm a friend.
Jeane kept repeating that sentence. His hands shook and his knuckles turned white. He even ignored that the cup contained hot tea that could melt his white skin.

Malvin could not concentrate, he massaged his own forehead and gave up on his job. He turned to the phone on the left side of his desk, hesitating whether he should call Alena to confirm his condition or call Jeane to ask where the girl was.
Had Malvin not been disturbed by Jeane's words, he would not have been this confused.
Flasbacks
Malvin was surprised as he sat beside Jeane, the girl suddenly said in a soft voice.
“I've been trying to fight him, really. But I can't.” both corners of her eyes drain tears. Malvin. Before she could realize Jeane's condition, the girl hugged her suddenly.
“Please, Malvin.. help me..”
Malvin was stunned, what exactly happened? He wondered to himself. Not knowing what to do, she can only embrace Jeane.
“What has happened something?” whispers are curious and anxious. Jeane let go of his embrace slowly. The girl lowered her head with her hands squeezing her clothes tightly. Malvin is confused by Jeane's strange attitude tonight. This girl looks so different.
“I have tried to eliminate it, I have tried to fight it until now but I can't, in my brain only comes to mind to eliminate all the things that bother me. It scares me, makes me not sleep well, even I always hate everyone who makes me like this. I hate.” Jeane clutched her hair tightly. Malvin gasped and tried to stop Jeane who seemed to want all the hair on his head released.
“Wait, Jeane..” Malvin puts Jeane's hand down. After Jeane became calmer, he looked at the girl attentively.
“Actually what happened?”
Jeane, who was stared at attentively by men, for the first time after Davian's marriage, felt so moved that from both corners of his eyes shed tears.
“I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'm out of control again. please prevent me from doing it.”.
Malvin was filled with sympathy and pity to see Jeane crying like this. He still doesn't understand Jeane's problems. But anyone looking into Jeane's eyes right now would think Jeane was facing something very heavy. Something so heartbreaking and unable to make him alive again.
“I..” Jeane said in a sobbing voice,
“I don't want to kill people anymore. I don't want.” Malvin heard it. To kill? Mumbled dumbfounded.
“Just because I was treated unfairly, I don't want to vent my resentment at the people who have made me suffer. I'm afraid.” Jeane cried, her crying voice sounded so heartbreaking. Malvin could only be glued to his place, to be honest, he still did not understand the meaning of Jeane's words.
Flasback End's.
