Playing With Fire
The Part 30

The speck of rain tonight adds to the atmosphere of shahdu for anyone who enjoys it. A woman prefers to drown her body in her padded mattress that feels very comfortable. Even the room lights were deliberately not turned on, until the atmosphere inside was very dark.

Elica had just been lying in her room. Boredom approached her, because Elica had not activated her phone from a few days ago. Actually he was very hungry, but his laziness plus the cold atmosphere made him reluctant to step out of the room. The sound of knocking on the door finally made Elica forced to get up to open it. It turns out that Bella did it, seen if the girl brought a bag of plastic that was thrust on Elica.

"Eat it, I'll go to work now" Bella said

"Have you eaten?" Ask Elica.

"It has. Then I go first, don't open the door if a stranger knocks on Elica"

"alright. Thanks to Bella"

The girl answered him with just a nod of her head, then left Elica.

After Bella, Elica immediately opened the food that Bella had brought and immediately devoured her. While eating Elica down the room where she lived. Bella's apartment looks dirty, lots of clothes on the sofa and on the floor.

And the kitchen was a lot of trash that had not just been lying down. That's what makes Elica lazy to cook. But because she also remembers the kindness of Bella, then after the meal is finished Elica intends to clean this place to make it cleaner.

Bryan is seen sitting with Elica's father. Both of them were in a bar just to drink, the man downed a beer in front of him.

"Is he okay?" Ask Albert Elica's father.

"He's nice, and he lives in my sister's house"

Mr. Albert sighed softly, then he drank a beer just like Bryan. He had just returned home this afternoon and immediately contacted Bryan to accompany him to drink.

"Why did you cancel your departure abroad uncle?" Bryan suddenly said.

"I'm confused Bryan. That day Alex came to my house, she begged me to give her the blessing to marry Elica. She said she'd be in charge of Elica's womb, but I couldn't just make up my mind. Looks like my daughter already hates her a lot, even though she has also taken a liking to that man. So I chose to leave to give Elica some time to think, but if this is her decision, then I can only let her"

"But I'm sure Alex won't just shut up uncle" Bryan said.

"I know, let them finish it"

"Did you know where Aunt Hilda is, uncle?" Bryan asked, trying to find information.

"It has. She's with Mia, Mia called me yesterday"

"Thank God, I'm glad to hear that"

"But Mia said Hilda's condition worsened so she brought her to be hospitalized"

"Did Elica know about this uncle?"

"Yet. But it's better if he doesn't know, you understand what I mean by Bryan"

"Good uncle, I won't tell him"

Albert also replied with a nod of the head.

After 2 hours of cleaning Bella's apartment, Elica decided to take a shower. The room has turned out to be more pleasant to look at, and there is no more dirty kitchen.

Next Elica intends to go to the minimarket to buy some groceries, because in the refrigerator she does not see anything to be used as food.

Elica had been neat and rushed straight to the minimarket. It turned out that the distance was not far from the apartment, just a walk and took 10 minutes he had arrived at the place he was headed. Elica entered and immediately grabbed a trolley to accommodate her groceries.

Quite a lot of material that Elica bought, the possibility of the stock up to the next few days. Although next week he will move to Seattle, but at least he does not want to bother Bella again because of food affairs.

Elica took her groceries to the cashier, and she paid for them with her debit card. To go home Elica chose to use a taxi, because it was impossible for her to carry that much stuff on foot

Arriving at home, Elica immediately arranged what she had bought into the refrigerator. Then Elica immediately cooked the food for him and Bella ate it later.

Elsewhere a mysterious man was walking into an office with his broad steps. The man used a maker and a black hat to cover his face.

Unexpectedly, the man went straight into the room that read "Director" as he got permission from the receptionist.

"Good night, Mr. Alex" said the mysterious man.

"You have any information?"

"Yes sir. Miss is in Tacoma, I'm tracking from the debit card she was wearing a few hours ago"

"Damn" Alex grumbles at knowing if Elica really wants to get away from her surveillance.

He stood up from his seat and went to the glass window while looking at the traffic lights below.

"Is there anything I can do again, sir?"

"Who helped her go to that place?" Ask Alex

"I don't know yet, sir, but if you want me to find out, then I will"

"No. No need, anyway if I told her to come back she would definitely not want to. Tell you what, find out Hilda's whereabouts immediately. I want you to make that woman suffer no matter how."

Alex said in a scary voice. He was already upset because Elica had not thought about what Alex had said.

"Are you sure, sir? What if miss knows?"

"That's none of your business. And try not to let him know. Just do what I tell you, and Elica doesn't listen to my threats. Then this is what he will get, and also this is one way to get that woman back without me forcibly. But I need you to keep an eye on him there, make sure my son's okay"

"Good sir"

The clock was showing at 12pm, and Elica was already asleep in her sleep. Suddenly there was the sound of a bell that disturbed Elica's sense of hearing. Even though he tried to ignore her, the bell kept ringing. With Elica forced to wake up, he glanced at the clock. She's a little confused, impossible if Bella's now home from her job. Bella always comes home in the morning.

Elica hesitated whether she should open the door or not. But the voice continued to tease him, finally he ventured to see who was visiting in the middle of the night.

Elica opened the door, and Devan was the one who came.

"Devan... What are you doing in the middle of the night? Bella hasn't come home yet" Elica told Devan

"No Elica, I don't want to meet Bella. But with you"

"With me?" Elica frowned.

"Am I supposed to come in first, Elica?"

"Alright come in" said Elica lazily. Because she was actually very sleepy, especially this afternoon she cleaned Bella's apartment. Makes her very tired.

Devan sat his body in a chair.

"What's the matter until you've seen Devan last night?"

"I'm sorry if I bullied you, Elica, but if there's Bella, I'm not happy to talk to you. So it was midnight like this I came" Devan replied

"It doesn't matter. But can you get straight to the core? Because I'm so sleepy"

Devan is seen approaching Elica until the two of them sit opposite. And the man held both hands of Elica. "What are you doing Devan?" Elica was surprised by Devan's behavior

"I'll say it as soon as I can, Elica, but you should know if I say this sincerely. Actually I really like you Elica, can we have a relationship? I mean. Will you be my lover? Because I've been harboring this feeling for a long time, Elica" said Devan earnestly staring at Elica.

Elica quickly pulled her own hand from Devan's hand until it was released. He was very surprised by what Devan said. His drowsiness that had approached him now disappeared somewhere.

"Devan. Do you realize what you said just now? You're Bella's boyfriend. Remember that" hissed Elica was seen holding back her anger.

The man shook his head quickly as if to disagree with what Elica said.

"No Elica. The woman I've always loved is yourself Elica even long ago. I'm sure you know that too." Devan.

"Are you drunk Devan? You talk about the impossible. Moreover, you already belong to Bella, you don't deserve to say that"

"I beg Elica, try to think back to what I said"

"There's nothing I need to think about Devan. Because my answer is of course NOT" replied Elica firmly.

"Why not Elica, you didn't even give me a reason"

Elica was very distrustful of the actions of this man in front of her. Should she call Bella if her boyfriend is crazy right now.

"My answer is Elica..." Cecar Devan

"I'm pregnant. You satisfied? And you know what that means, if I already have another man. So get rid of your crazy thoughts Devan. And don't say anything silly like this again" Elica said angrily

"Pregnant? No. gabe. That's impossible" Devan said in disbelief.

Elica who saw the look on the man's face then looks to sing her grin because it managed to make Devan surprised.

"I'm not the best girl you think Devan is. Anyway, the Elica you used to know is dead. So don't expect anything more from me" Elica explained to the stunned man who didn't believe it.

"Who.." Devan said slowly.

"What?"

"Who.. who's the guy who impregnated you, Elica?" Screaming Devan suddenly.

Suddenly Elica jumped in shock as the man raised his tone.

"You don't need to know who he is, obviously don't come near me anymore. And remember, you already have a lover. And she is Bella. So if you're done, you can get out right now Devan" Elica's permanent removal.

Elica stands up and walks towards the door to open it and hints for Devan to leave quickly.

Since Elica was worried that if Bella found out about this, she must have been very angry.

But the look on Devan's face had changed, a look of disappointment and anger enveloped his heart. Remembering the woman he admired so much was different.

She also moved from her seat and approached Elica who was opening the door for her. Her eyes did not turn to Elica, as if intimidating Elica with her heartache.

"Come home, Devan, it's night. And I'm gonna assume what you talked about was never..."

Unexpectedly, the man directly pulled Elica's head and kissed her lips. The shocked and unprepared Elica immediately tried to rebel.

But Devan shut the door with one hand without letting go of his kiss. And lead Elica to the couch.

Elica who knows what Devan is going to do Finally has an idea, she bites Devan's lips until the kiss is released.

Plakkc..

Elica quickly slapped Devan's cheek hard.

"You're crazy Devan. You think what you've done" cried Elica furiously in front of the man's face.

Instead of answering Elica's words, Devan pulled Elica back and kissed her again by force.

Elica rebelled again trying to break away, but this time Devan's power was stronger until he had difficulty. Without feeling the tears Elica came out just like that, Devan who knew Elica was crying immediately took off her mouth.

"Why should I cry, Elica, aren't you the same as a cheap woman now." Devan

The words made Elica's heart very sick. Why does everyone say he's cheap without knowing the truth. Like he no longer had any self-respect.

"I hate you Devan" said Elica as her tears kept coming out.

"Just a kiss you're crying. Then what about the man who impregnated you? Did you cry for her to faint too? Don't act like you're Elica's holy woman" doesn't stop Devan from corrupting Elica.

"Get out.." said Elica.

Devan seemed to harden his jaws, but did not want to leave.

"Elica, I wish I could meet the old Elica.."

"Say Out! Do I need to call security" Elica said again.

The man seemed to let out his breath and chose to go out.

After Devan left, Elica immediately slumped down and cried considering the painful incident earlier.

He just wanted to leave without anyone bothering him. Why would something as simple as that be difficult for Elica. Because right now he just wanted to think about his gynecological state.
