My Introvert Husband 3
Chest Pressing

Ken walked to the balcony of the building, out of everyone's reach. Valerie followed Ken from behind and was currently standing right next to the man while Alana herself, she noticed the two of them from a distance.

"Ken?" call Valerie.

"Speak, what do you want to talk about?" ken ordered without looking at the woman who was currently busy looking at him.

"You're married?" valerie's voice was low, but Ken was silent.

"You never gave me a chance, Ken." Valerie looked towards Ken who was staring in any direction.

"We already have each other's lives, don't talk about what's already!" ken.

"I'm getting married soon, Ken. I'm in a match with my Grandmother's adopted granddaughter, by the way,"

"Do you know, Ken. I took pains to try to forget you to choose this matchmaking."

"You said you'd try to open my heart to me, but after that day, you just dodged and walked away from me. You never gave me a chance at all, Ken. do I really not deserve that?" Ken only glanced at Valerie who was currently completely disappointed in him. His voice sounded increasingly heavy.

"What did he do to win your heart, Ken?"

"What made you want to marry her, Ken? do you love your wife that much?"

"Why don't you want to give me a chance to open your heart to me?" the questions Valerie posed simultaneously left Ken impeccably trying to answer them.

"Speak, Ken?"

"I've opened my heart to you, but haven't you avoided yourself? you're the one who's avoiding me!" exclaim Ken.

"I've never dodged..I just want to give you time to really open your heart to me. I'm afraid you're disturbed after I express my feelings to you. But in fact? I thought you were avoiding me because from that day on, you've been calling me less. Not even at all. ever since I tried to completely forget you. but I couldn't..." valerie. Ken turned to look at Valerie who was holding back her grief.  Ken stared at the two beads of Valerie's eyes that looked glazed over.

"Even to this day, I still can't forget you .. Why am I not as lucky as your wife, Ken?" Valerie rubbed both corners of her eyes that were wet all of a sudden.

"Valerie.." I don't think Ken could have seen it.

"I'm sorry, I got carried away. I just wanted to talk that way, Ken."

"At least my heart is relieved to speak what I want to speak to you." Valerie quickly wiped her tears and tried to smile. After that, she passed away leaving Ken.

"Vallery..." Ken called her. However, Valerie paid no heed to him.

"I thought it was you who played with my feelings." Ken muttered in his heart as he closed his eyes.

***

Alana stood up with an unsettled feeling, she was so chaotic that she was in the crowd. Alana brushes her sweaty hands, hoping that Ken will soon return to see her.

"Sorry for a long time." said Ken.

"It's okay," Alana tried to smile.

"You must be hungry, let's eat..." Ken pulled Alana by the hand and approached David and Ashley. Ken took Alana to sit down and tried to start eating with his two best friends.

"Who's the woman talking to you on the balcony, Ken?" ask David.

"Yes, Ken. Who is he?" ask Ashley.

"She's Valerie, my friend," Ken replied as he looked towards Alana.

"Oh, that's the Valerie you used to tell me about?" ask Ashley with a bang. Ken just kept quiet and still looked at Alana who seemed to not care about him.

"Alana, come eat!" ken orders, but Alana is silent.

"Where?" exclaim Ken with a little annoyance.

"Yes, Ken. I eat!" alana Saut.

"She must still think of my relationship with Valerie." Ken muttered inwardly as he looked at Alana with slight annoyance. Alana looked towards Ken who was still staring at her, however, Alana instantly shifted her gaze.

They also enjoyed a feast served by the family of Adam for all his guests. David and Ashley talk to Ken, but Alana just keeps quiet and enjoys her food.

Ken recalled Valerie's reason for suddenly dodging him, "I've only misunderstood him this whole time, to him?" muttered Ken in his heart as he swallowed his saliva.then, he looked towards Alana who seemed silent and uninspired.

"Why are you quiet?" ken asked as he brushed Alana's hair, and David noticed the two of them.

"It's okay, I'll eat, when should I talk? I get dizzy when I'm in a crowd like this" Alana said with a smile.

"Repeat your food, after this we're out of here" Ken said. Alana nodded her head.

Brucks

"Aw.." the cry of the woman who was none other than Valerie, made everyone look at her including Ken. the woman was seen falling because she slipped near the bench that Ken was currently sitting on. In fact, the woman was seen falling, the heels he was wearing looked broken.

"Vallery?" Ken stood up and immediately approached the woman, as did Alana and David, while Ashley, the man was still busy with his food.

"Valerie, how did you fall? are you all right?" ask Ken.

"My feet hurt a lot, Ken." Valerie hissed and held onto her ankle. Ken helped Valerie stand up and pulled her body into a chair nearby. Ken immediately checked Valerie's ankles which looked blue.

"Aw sick, Ken." Valerie hissed in pain when Ken touched her ankle.

"Wait a minute, I'll ask for ice water to compress your ankles." Ken went away from there and asked the building staff to lap and ice water.Now, the building employee returned to give what Ken asked for earlier. Ken immediately compresses Valerie's legs.

Alana was still unmoved beside David while watching Ken and Valerie. Alana's heart ached when she saw Ken who was so attentive to Valerie. Both eyes looked teary when she saw the scene that was currently suffocating her chest.

"Alana.." David's voice jolted Alana's ear.

"Ehm, Yes?" Alana tried to subdue her gaze. David looks at Alana. Later, he turns to look at Ken who is busy helping Valerie.

"Come, we'll continue eating." David pulls Alana's hand and invites her back to continue eating. David tells Alana to sit down, and Alana agrees.

However, Alana's eyes could not be separated to pay attention to Ken who was busy with Valerie.David even noticed Alana's sadness in his two eyes so clearly.

"Where's Ken?" ask Ashley.

"She's still helping her friend.let's continue eating, let's go" David asked as he looked towards Alana.

"Alana... are you okay?" ask David.

"Yes, Alana. Why do you think I've noticed silence? are you sick Alana?" ask Ashley.

"Ti-no. I'm fine." the woman tried to smile to show that she was okay.

"Ehm... David, Ashley, I'm sorry to go to the toilet, okay?" pamit Alana's.

"Well, come back soon, Alana." Ashley greets him while chewing quickly on the food that is currently filling his mouth. Alana got up from her seat and passed away leaving them both, while David, she still could not be seen Alana who walked away from the reach of her eyes.

"Hey.." Ashley's voice ripped David's eyes off.

"What, the hell.are you?" exclaim David.

"I noticed, you've been looking at Alana to such an extent?  don't tell me you like that woman!" ashley said with a suspicious look. David just kept quiet and looked at his best friend.

"Why are you quiet?" exclaim Ashley.

"If I like it, why? you got a problem?" ask David. Ashley immediately choked to make some of the food in her mouth come out. Ashley quickly dissolved some of the food in her mouth with the water she had just taken.

"You don't go crazy! she's our best friend's wife, if you're gonna be killed by Ken!" exclaim Ashley.

"I used to know Alana, and I used to have feelings for her. Ken never wanted Alana" David said.

"Speaking bullshit! sober up..." Ashley patted David's cheek many times.

"Ken loves Alana so much, you should know that!" said Ashley.

"I think it's like that too, but, look! he was so busy with his girlfriend that he forgot about Alana, and I really didn't like this" David said, looking at Ken, who is currently busy helping Valerie.

"David, you don't seem to know Ken alone. Ken was like that. He couldn't see anyone getting hurt!" Ashley.

"The first time I was in student orientation, I was hit by a tree at school and I lost a lot of blood, Ken kindly donated blood to me, even though Ken did not know me at all. and do you remember the first time we met Alana at the bar? Ken doesn't know him, does he? and in fact, Ken does not know the origin of Alana, but, he wants to help Alana even treat the wound on her hand.strangers only always Ken help. let alone his friend!" ashley. David paused for a moment and confirmed Ashley's words.

"But he should know, here he invites Alana. At least he can appreciate the feelings of his wife just a little!" exclaim David.

"You think about Alana's feelings?" ask Ashley.

"I feel sorry for him" replied David.

"Then why don't you replace Ken to help his girlfriend!" exclaim Ashley.

"No need to talk about this! spend your food there!" david's orders.

***

Alana goes into one of the toilets, she sits on a closed closet. he held onto his chest which he felt was so tight and slowly tried to regulate every breath that went into his nasal cavity.

"Why does it hurt like this?" Alana closed her eyes.In fact, the clear liquid was swept there.she quickly wiped her tears that fell suddenly.

"When Darrel broke up with me and he had a relationship with Lecya, I didn't feel this much, not even at all."

"But why does it feel so sick to see Ken so attentive to Valerie? she was worried about Valerie."

"It's impossible if Ken doesn't have feelings for Valerie. they definitely have a relationship." Alana's tears get louder on her face.Said - her mother and Caleey's words come to mind again, to make Alana cry so much, he again remembered that he and Ken were married just because of business.

"Why are you crying, Alana? didn't you know that something like this was going to happen?"

"What do you hope for? hoping Ken will love you? You and Ken got married just because of business awareness.not much more than that!" Alana spoke to herself with a sigh.

he was still busy pouring his tears in the same place.In fact, both his eyeballs almost shrunk because of the closed eyelids that swell by themselves. when in his heart was a little relieved because of crying. Alana immediately dried her tears and quickly came out from inside.

***

Valerie notices Ken who is busy compressing her ankle.His feelings are again chaotic about it. However, because of this small incident.he feels happy because he sees Ken so worried about him.

"Is it better?" ask Ken.

"Yes, Ken." Valerie nodded and looked at Ken's eyes with a sad look.

After helping Valerie compress her legs. Ken stood up and returned the basin filled with ice water to the building employees.

"Valerie, come on. I'll take you home!" take Ken.

"Avid, Ashley... Where's alana? I'm gonna take her back and get Valerie home" said Ken, helping Valerie to sit on the chair first.

"She's in the bathroom, but I don't know why it's been so long" Ashley said.

"Yes, he was in the bathroom" David said.

"All right, I'll catch up with him." Ken soon catches up with Alana to the bathroom, but, in the bathroom there is no one at all. And finally, he returns to his best friend's place.

"Where in the bathroom was there anyone, didn't he say other than where to go to the bathroom?" kenny asked his two friends.

"No! he just went to the bathroom and hasn't come back until now."  David replies without saying, Ken goes away leaving them to look for Alana.So does Ashley and David.he tries to help Ken to find Alana.

Ken searched Alana to all corners of the room in the building.In fact, he also searched outside and the parking lot of the building.however, he did not find Alana there at all, the large crowd makes Ken difficult to find his wife.

"Where is he?" muttered Ken with confusion.

"Ken, who are you looking for?" Adam suddenly patted Ken on the shoulder from behind to surprise him.

"I'm looking for my wife, did you see her?" asked Ken in a bit of a panic.

"No, Ken. wasn't she with you?" ask Adam.

"Yes, she was with me. But I stayed to help Valerie for a while, David and Ashley said she went to the toilet, but there was nobody in the toilet."

"Try calling him!" adam's orders. Ken nodded and immediately picked up the phone tucked in his pants pocket. Ken tries to contact Alana via voice call, but, unfortunately, Alana's phone is off.

"His phone is inactive."

"Oh my God, where is he going." Ken watched in the direction around while rubbing his face rough, so clearly was the worry in both of his beads.

"Ken, relax! don't worry too much like that. Your wife is not a child, later will also come back.just wait, maybe she's around here." said Adam while patting Ken's shoulder.

"But I've been looking everywhere but nothing! obviously I'm worried, because it's night!" ken exclaimed as he left Adam from there.

Ken returned to his original place, where David and Ashley also just returned from looking for Alana.

"How, Ken?" ask David and Ashley.

"Nothing, I've been looking everywhere..."

"Me and Ashley have been looking for her, but nothing. Have you tried to contact her?" ask David.

"It's, but, the thing is, the phone's off!" exclaim Ken.

"Oh my God, where is Alana." Ken clucked in confusion.

"If you've been with him since then, maybe he's still with you now" David said with insinuation. Ken just shut up and looked at David.In the instant, Ken immediately felt what David said to him.

"How, Ken?" asked Valerie who was currently standing by discussing one leg.In fact, she unbearably wrapped her hand on Ken's arm as a handle.

"She's not there." replied Ken while distancing Valerie's hand.

"Ken, take me home first, Ken. I can't stand the pain in my leg" Valerie said with a sizzle.

"David, Ashley. I'm asking you to take Valerie home, please." - Ken. David and Ashley immediately agreed.

"Ken, you said you'd take me home?" Valerie suddenly chimed in.

"Valerie, let my best friend deliver you. I have to find my wife" Ken said.

"Ken, your wife can't go anywhere. Please take me for a moment. I'm afraid, I don't know them both!" pinta Valerie with a face that was compassionate while glancing fearfully at Ashley and David.In fact, she again wrapped her hand to Ken's arm. Ken was silent for a moment and kept Valerie's hand away from his arm.

"You'll be fine with my best friend! they are not insolent people!" ken.

"Ken, please..."

"Sorry, Valerie. My wife is more important.I can't leave her alone because it's already night! I'm afraid she's why-why!" exclaim Ken.

"Then I'll come with you to find your wife" said Valerie.

"No need! I can find my own wife!" ken said as he passed leaving Valerie. Ken returned to leave Valerie to his two best friends.

"David, look, Ken's worried about Alana a lot. Ken loves Alana very much" whispered Ashley.

"At least I'm a little relieved" David smiled.

"Miss Valerie, let's get you home." David approaches Valerie and helps her to walk. Valerie closed her eyes in disappointment.
