Playboy in Love (The King in Love)
episode 37 Break up
A few minutes after Leo's departure, Shena's door opened and Laura appeared with a myriad of anxieties on her face.
“Shena! What the hell happened to you? How could you get hurt like this? What are you thinking, huh? What if something bad happens to you? What am I supposed to do? Do you know how much I worry about you?” Laura immediately flocked Shena with all sorts of questions as soon as she saw her best friend lying weakly on her bed.
“Whose fault am I in this place?” muttered Shena by putting on a pouting face at Laura.
Laura was confused by Shena's answer. “You mean? Everything that happened to you, it was my fault?” Laura was somewhat inadmissible if she was to blame for what befell Shena at the moment.
Shena nodded, “If that time someone did not turn off her phone, then I probably would not end up here. The man could not be reached, so I was forced to wait at the stop until he could be contacted again. Unfortunately, the kidnapper moved faster than the one who turned off his phone, so no one could help me back then.” Shena deliberately insinuated Laura who at the time of the incident, could not be contacted at all. Shena is in a state of emergency.
Laura who felt insinuated, immediately apologized to her best friend, “I'm sorry Shena,” said the girl while crying. “If at that time I knew you were calling me, I wouldn't turn my phone off. That time ... I was in a bad state and it took time to calm down.” Laura wiped the tears that soaked her cheeks and tried to look tough. “After I returned to my real world, accidentally, I found your suitcase lying just like that at a stop near my house, even I found your phone in the middle of the road in a state of severe damage. From then on I started to realize something was wrong with you, and I called Roy, because I didn't have Leo.” Laura looked at Shena hoping that her explanation would be acceptable to her best friend.
“Why did you contact Roy? Why not just call the police?” shena asked curiously because what Leo said before he left Shena was true. Lauren's the one who told Roy.
“That time in my brain was Roy. He's a close friend of Leo's, I think Leo's movement as the son of the conglomerate would be faster than the police if he knew you were in trouble even if he wasn't here. That's all I thought about at the time.” Laura clasped her best friend's hand. The girl felt guilty for Shena because of her, Shena had to go through something bad like this.
Shena understood the meaning of Laura's words, she saw a deep sadness on her friend's face.
Roy and Laura must have been in trouble by then. It's not usual for Laura to turn off her phone for no reason. I'm sure they're separated. Inner Shena.
Shena looked at Roy who was standing in front of the door of her room. “Why isn't your girlfriend logged in?” Shena decides to pretend not to know about what happened to Laura and Roy's relationship.
“He's waiting for Leo, he said before meeting you, he should talk to Leo first. What's the matter? who kidnapped you? Do you know him?” Laura was curious about who the people who hurt Shena were.
“Have you improved with Roy?” Shena did not answer Laura's question, but instead asked back and switched the conversation.
“Stop talking about me Shena, I'm talking about you? Why are you asking me back about myself? Answer all my questions first, then I will answer your questions.” This time Laura could not be patient anymore hearing the explanation from Shena.
Shena only explains the chronology of the kidnapping and shooting that happened to her minus about Bibi Nunuk who turns out to be the biological mother of the late Sasa. One of their classmates is also a close friend of theirs.
“Then, what about the guy who shot you? Has he been caught?” laura asked, still curious.
“I don't know, when I came to, I didn't see Leo by my side. Then I passed out again and knew it was here.”
“What about Leo? Go where is he? Why would he leave you alone? He should have taken care of you after what happened to you.” Laura was still wondering where Leo was at a time like this.
“He doesn't want you to see what Leo really looks like, so he wants to wear his mask first before meeting you here.” Shena originally replied, because Leo did look very scary with clothes filled with blood stains almost all over his body. I don't know if it's anyone's blood.
Laura was increasingly clueless and confused by what Shena said.
Shena herself also still thinks about Roy not really loving Laura. However, seeing them coming together this time, Shena wanted to make sure of something in order to plan what she would do next. Because after all, Shena must immediately win the bet she has agreed with Leo.
“Now it's your turn, Ra. What happened to you two. Why did you turn off your phone? Are you having a fight with Roy?” shena asked Laura. The girl asked just lowered her head because she was trying to string the right words to convey to Shena, her best friend.
“We decided to split.” Laura tried hard when she said it.
Shena is shocked to hear that her best friend's relationship is ending sooner than she thought. Closing her eyes, Shena tries to suppress her feelings to be invisible to Laura that she already knows the end of her best friend's love story that is far worse than Shena's own love story.
Waitaminute! If their relationship ends now, will I automatically lose the bet with Leo? That means, forever I have to be on Leo's side? No, this can't happen. However, Laura must not break up with Roy prematurely. But no way, their relationship is over. And actually it's better than having to live a relationship filled with lies. But what about my fate now? Will I be stuck with Leo forever? I've lost the bet! Pimply.
Shena slouched her face in stress thinking about what was happening right now.
“Shena, are you okay? Does anyone hurt?” laura asks worried about Laura's attitude after she tells her that her relationship with Roy is over.
“If I knew your relationship was over with Roy, I'd rather die shot at that time.” muttered Shena with a frustrated expression at imagining her days would be caught in the shackles of Leo's love.
