It rained so hard, when Adam returned from his family home. The increasingly heavy rain seemed to represent his chaotic feelings, because of these bitter realities that were so difficult to accept.
With slow steps, Adam walked up to the door of Clara's house, ignoring the rain that drenched her entire body.
Unlike usual, this time Adam pressed the doorbell of Clara's house. The feeling of fear approached her, when she was about to meet Clara. Hoping that all the stories told by Grandpa, mother and Gibran were just lies for him to part with Clara.
"Adam? What the hell is going on with you? Why are you raining like this?"
Clara who had just come out and found Adam in such a mess, immediately brought him inside.
"Is it true that a plain woman would seem to do that?" Inner Adam noticed the worried look on his face that Clara was showing at the moment
"Did something happen today?" Ask Clara who just returned from her room
Clara helped dry Adam's wet hair with a towel she had just picked up in the room.
Adam, who had just been silent, looked at Clara's face, in the hope that what was said by his family was just a misunderstanding.
"My family dumped me Clara, I really let them down.." Adam finally hugged Clara's body, ignoring her wet clothes
"disposed you? What do you mean Adam?" Tanya Clara took off Adam's embrace with a frown
Although at a glance, there was a shocked expression from the look on Clara's face that Adam had just seen.
"Naura has agreed to my divorce.. " Answer to Adam
Clara's forehead, which had been wrinkled, immediately turned cheerful when she heard the happy news coming out of Adam's mouth.
"Isn't that great news, why you look so sad"
Although it was difficult to admit it, Adam did have a bit of a sense of unwillingness in his heart when he imagined Naura was no longer his wife. The feeling of ith as big as he heard the sacrifice of his mother who had saved him to sacrifice his own life.
"Hm.. How're you? Would you stay with me if I wasn't part of Louis' family? Ever since I divorced Naura, I had to give up my family's legacy" Adam asked in the hope that the girl would happily embrace herself without taking issue with her family's possessions
But how unfortunate he was, when Clara who had looked cheerful after hearing his divorce, again put on a disappointed face.
"Whatchu mean? Do they really have to do this? Aren't you the only heir to your family?" Ask Clara in a slightly high tone
"What's up Clara? Are you going to throw me away after knowing this?" Ask Adam with a flat expression
With Clara asking him that question, it made Adam doubt Clara's attitude all along and begin to question what her family said about her lover.
"No.. N-not like that, how could I throw you away. I just feel like it's not fair to you, how could your family be more on Naura's side than you are on your own" Clara said frantically
But even though Clara said that, Adam still felt disappointment because the response he got from Clara was different from what he expected. He would not be so disappointed if Clara calmed him down and said that everything would be fine even without his family's possessions.
Maybe if it was Nuara, he might immediately say it's okay because his eyes together with Adam are much more important than everything.
"Why did I suddenly think of Naura" Adam's mind rubbed his chest which somehow felt so hollow from when
This was even the day since Naura agreed to the divorce and Adam had already felt a sense of emptiness and guilt that was either due to his guilt towards Mother Naura or perhaps his already changed feelings for Naura along the way he knows all the truth.
"I'm gonna go up and clean myself up.. " Say Adam stood up without responding to Clara's words of defense
"no need. I'm really tired today. I will probably go straight to sleep after taking a bath" Adam answered and then continued his steps up to the second floor
......
After Adam's departure, Clara immediately sat on the sofa while biting her fingertips confused.
This is not what she wanted all this time, rather than being Adam's wife. He was more interested in being the daughter-in-law of the Louis family.
Although he had previously made Adam's mother hate him with his money, but he still did not expect that Adam would really be expelled from the family and did not even get a penny of property from his family.
"It's not the life I want.. " Agrily Clara while squeezing her hair irritated
Amidst his frustration, Clara's phone suddenly rang. Alex's name is visible on her phone screen, making Clara quickly receive the call.
"When are you coming here?" Ask Alex when the call is connected
Justright. Clara forgot this guy. Although Alex is only one of his mistresses, but Alex is a little different from other men. All this time, whatever Clara asked for, Alex never once refused. There is no other reason to explain his nature than because Alex loves him. Think Clara this time.
"I'll come if you want me to.. " Clara said back smiling
"What about today?" Ask Alex then
Clara thought for a moment before answering, however Adam was still up there. But rethinking my words from Adam just now, made Clara finally agree to Alex's invitation.
"alright.. I'll be there" Clara said
"I'll be waiting for you, muacchh.. " Alex sounded so excited and didn't forget to give Clara a kiss bye before disconnecting her call
.....
Clara then went upstairs to check on Adam first.
"Adam?" Call Clara slowly while opening the door of the room, a little reproach for her to look into the room
The figure of Adam who was lying in the dark room, making Clara more happy because she did not have to make an excuse for him to come out.
Clara then closed the door again and quickly ran to her room to change clothes.
......
After Clara's departure from her room just now, Adam immediately woke up. Since then, he has not been able to fall asleep. How many times he closed his eyes, he would only end up waking up again.
Whether since when, his mind was constantly filled with Naura's face. Adam constantly imagined the condition of Naura when he returned home that night.
Because of his quarrel with his mother, made him not pay much attention to the condition of Naura at that time.
"Did something happen to her that night?" Adam's mind is suspicious
"Where is he going in the middle of the night?" Adam muttered distractedly as he accidentally saw Naura who had just left the house
