Tarnished Before Accident
Chapter 04. Egotistical

Destiny is like a stage play written in red ink. My story can't be rearranged to be worth reading. A group of human puppets are showing their selfishness without looking at and caring for someone who is injured and hurt because of their actions.

Here, Rey locked me with her body and her arms. I can't stand to fight. My body was really weak when faced with the stern look of the eye that felt so intimidating. His head lowered even deeper, locking onto my eyes that were beginning to dew.

What is he wanting?

When this body wanted to rebel, he took out something from under his sleeping robe and gave it to me.

"Is this yours?"

My lips shook, unable to explain what was currently struggling in my heart.

I accepted it, stretched out my hand with the corner of the eye that was getting wet. Kak Rey's gaze was still the same: cold and sharp as if she was stripping me of honesty.

The thing I was holding was .. my work uniform left in that hotel room.

I nodded weakly. The pain again gnaws at the soul. I forgot my name was on my uniform. Does that mean Rey ....

"What happened back then?"

His voice sounded resolute and demanding in my ears. I nodded, unable to say a word. My chest's tight. Just sobs coming out of my lips. I ... have no power to explain anything.

The hazel-eyed man patted his hair, then his clenched hand hit the wall next to mine. I was more and more stunned, sobbing in tears that tried my hardest to hold.

"I raped you?"

I nodded while hugging my torn work uniform. The tail of my eyes looked at Kak Rey's face that looked tangled and wrinkled. You could say, the man seemed to not believe the reality.

If avoiding reality could change destiny, I would be the first to do so. However, the rice had become porridge. Everything has happened without being contained.

For a moment the man removed his hammock from my body. He turned around behind me. I don't give a shit. My heart was also broken. However, the woman is the person who is most harmed by the incident.

"Sorry." Rey said softly. I just quietly responded. "That night I got together with my friends. Unbeknownst to me, they pranked me by putting something in my drink. I only realized it when my body started to react." His hands back squeezed his hair rough. "I didn't know I was doing that to you."

My eyes closed. The pain in the heart becomes inflamed. His ignorance has ruined my future. His unconsciousness has taken away the crown that I have been guarding desperately. After this, who is the man who would accept a woman like me?

"I hope Rena doesn't know. I couldn't see the disappointment in his eyes."

Selfish. I also love Sister Rena, but should I have to swallow her myself?

"Get out of my room!" I don't want him here too long. I'm sick. I hate him more and more.

"Alea!"

"Don't say my name! I won't hear you calling me."

"sorry. We just got married. I can't divorce her and then marry you. I love her and want to make Rena the only woman."

The tears I can't hold anymore. I-i know. I also can't possibly ruin Rena's happiness. He's too good to hurt. Do I have to swallow all this myself? Is this fair to me?

"Yes, sure. He is my brother. I can't possibly ruin his happiness. Come outside! I assume nothing happened between us."

Rey nodded. Without saying any more he opened my bedroom door to leave immediately. Just when the door opened, Mama was already standing right in front of her.

"Rinan!"

Obviously the sudden arrival of Mama made us aghast. My wet face I'll wipe immediately. I watched with a face out after Rey walked away from the doorway.

"Alea!" Mama's face is inflamed. Must have thought something was going on between us.

I swallowed spit. Confused to explain what. A groom in the middle of the night instead of sleeping in the bridal room, but out of the room of his sister-in-law. Who does not suspect? What reason should I say?

I'm a mute duck. Afraid of Mama's reaction that might shake my mind even worse. While Rey remained calm in her soul. Why was the man not at all bothered by Mama's suspicious gaze?

"Rena suddenly comes to the moon. I asked her for help in finding a sanitary pad."

I raised my previously lowered face, looking at the man beside me who looked calm with no expression. I had been trembling since then, but he just acted relaxed as if nothing had happened.

Slowly the look on my face turned friendly. Women who have small wrinkles on the tip of the eye thin the lips and curl.

"Mama exists. Wait a minute, let Mama get it."

Mama turned her back, left us both. We looked at each other, but then he looked away.

"Come in! Let Mama take care of it," she said coldly.

Without saying anything, I returned to my room, closed the door and locked it immediately. I leaned this body on the door, and then immediately it fell down. I put my knees together with the face I drowned in there. I shed my tears. The defensive fort I had prepared for earlier turned out to be so fragile.

I sat there, in solitude. No hand will grasp for mere consolation. I was alone, lonely, and lonely in the emptiness of my soul.

I must have thought Rey would ninuninu with Alea, right? 🤭🤭

The follow-up is still typed.

Don't forget to leave a trace.

Thank ye.
