THE ALEXIS
PINK ROSE

No conversation took place during the trip. Until finally they arrived at a very magnificent mansion. Alex took her inside. There were several servants there who welcomed her arrival.

In my heart, Khiara admired the interior design of this mansion. He loved this mansion.

The mansion that stands right in the middle of a beautiful natural landscape, blends elegant, modern, and masculine style amidst the beauty of nature.

Mension reminds her of her childhood. He and his family often vacation and stay at the mansion like this, but unfortunately they can't do it anymore. A thin, slender smile fell on the corner of his lips without him noticing.

He followed Alex who took him to the second floor of the mansion. Possessive grip Alex's hand did not miss the item for a second since getting off the car earlier.

But Khiara let it go, letting the comfort envelop her for a moment. Let him be selfish for now. He just wanted to feel the calm that he had so longed for.

“Mandi lah, after that we have dinner.” Alex said as they reached a white room.

Vintage shades are very thick with various flower plants in them. Khira likes the feel of her room. A feeling that reminds him of someone.

“You like it?” Khiara turned her eyes to Alex, then nodded her head.

Alex could only sigh with Khiara's sudden change in attitude. This woman turned quiet in an instant. Honestly Alex felt a little frustrated.

What's wrong with her? Not wanting to bother, he finally led Khiara to the front of the bathroom.

“Mandi lah! All your needs are there.” Alex then kissed Khiara gently.

Hoping this woman would come back nagging in front of him. Without Alex realizing it, it just makes Khiara blushing. Again the kiss left a foreign swish in his slender body.

Alex leaves her, and Khiara cleans up. Did Alex deliberately prepare all this for me? All his needs are available there.

After finishing with her bath activities, Khiara bounces herself in front of the mirror in the corner of her luxurious bathroom. Very fitting. An elegant black-colored dress was attached to her body.

Khiara immediately came out, in a corner of the room she caught a collection of pink roses neatly arranged in a bucket. He stepped his feet to get closer to her. The touch of a very beautiful rose, took it a sprig and grasped its stem.

This beautiful flower in her grasp reminded her of someone. A person who missed him so much. And unknowingly, some thorns from the rose that was in his grasp injured his palm.

Memories of flashbacks in his brain memory made him grip the stalk tighter. As if grasping the stalk can make him resist the longing that is seeping from within him. But it just made his palm tear even deeper, until fresh blood slowly began to drip from his hand.

⎾“Good morning cyst!” The sound of the catfish made him wake up from his subconscious. Trick his good sleep.

“Oh, Shasha. You're bothering me! Go away, I still want to continue my sleep!” He said lazily and went back to wrestling with his blanket.

“Oh come on Khiara, until when are you going to sleep? You always sleep at night and you end up like this.” Feeling no response, Shasha finally pulled over the blanket that covered Khiara's body.

“Come wake up! Look I brought you something.” Khiara snorted as her calmness had been disturbed.

"Tarrraaaa___ beautiful isn't it?” Khiara smiled as she saw what Shasha had brought.

“Every morning you always bring me a pink rose sebouquet, while the gibbons nobody ever gave me a rose even once.”

“Your bodyguards are indeed unreliable!” Shasha snorted in annoyance, while Khiara was busy inhaling the fragrance of the roses that had now been in her hands.

“You are right, they are never reliable.”

“Hell loves you very much, but never gives you roses? What the fuck are they? really sucks. Even for once in her lifetime, women deserve roses from those who love her. Because the woman is very special, beautiful among a thousand flowers.”

“Hahaha___ just let them! I don't care, you give me roses every day.”

“That's because you're so special to me.”

“You are also very special to me.” They hugged each other after. They share the love between each other.

“Then, until when are you going to give me roses every morning like this?”

“Until my breath stops.”

“Hah? You'll make roses in Shasha's garden!”

“No way, I planted so many rose trees in the garden. And it won't end just because I bring it for you every day. They grow up fast. Believe it!”

“Well, I believe!” Silent moment. “You want me to give you roses?”

“No!”

“Why?”

“Because you are my rose.”

Huh huh?

“You are a living rose for me, that's really enough for me. You are the most beautiful rose of all the roses. So you don't have to give me roses. Because I got the best roses from you.” Khiara did not understand Shasha at all.

“Again I am sure, someday there will be someone who will give me a white rose.”

“There must be a handsome prince riding white who will bring me thousands of white rose stalks.”

“Hah, your life is too filled with fairy tales, Sha!” Shasha hit Khiara with a roll in her hand.

“Party why white roses?”

“The white rose is the centipede of the sacred love of Khiara, a sacred promise that will unite two people in holy love.”

“If I'm not mistaken, instead of white roses it symbolizes friendship?”

“That's right, white roses do symbolize friendship too.”

“Then why did you give me pink roses instead of white roses?”

“That's because you are indeed a pink rose, Khiara! You are a gentle woman, full of love and affection but also very strong. Unlike me, you are a rose. I am just daisy. Equally beautiful, yet not thorny. It perfectly fits describe my plain self.”

“Plain?” Khiara's eyes widened upon hearing that. Shasha agreed with her grin. "Plain palelu!" Khiara feels strange with Shasha who considers herself innocent, even though almost every day talking about kissing scenes from the drama she watched.

“Eih, I'm just plain. Don't be a prank!What is clear is that I am not as strong as you who can protect and uphold your pride. So that's why I don't need roses from you. I gave you a rose not as a symbol, but I gave you a rose because it was you. You it, a beautiful pink rose.” A sincere smile and full of admiration fell on Shasha's lips after a lengthy explanation.⏌

“Then at this time what rose is suitable for me,Sha?”

Tekk!

The stem of the rose broke along with the escape of Khiara's tears.

...***...

Alex is done cleaning himself up. It's time he invited Khiara to dinner together. As he entered Khiara's room, the woman was in the corner of the room behind him.

“You're doing___” Seeing what's in front of him, making Alex tighten his jaw.

“Khiara what are you doing?” Alex's voice made Khiara flinch, and immediately wiped away her tears.

“A-Alex___” Alex immediately grabbed Khiara's hand and threw away the rose.

His face grew stiffer and colder as the fresh blood came out from behind the skin of Khiara's palm. While Khiara herself was a little surprised, she did not realize that her hand was bleeding. It didn't feel at all by him.

Alex said nothing and immediately took Khiara out of the room. Outside the room Alex had started yelling for all the maids.

“Brengs*k! All of you, what are you doing? I don't pay you guys for a mistake!” The servants looked down scared and confused.

What mistakes have they made? Khiara ignited emotions as Alex snapped at all his servants.

“Throw away all the roses that are in there!” Khiara immediately glared at her making. This man was furious just because of something this small?

“I won't spare you if,__.”

“Alex!! What the hell are you doing? You're crazy, huh?” Alex frowned.

“Why are you scolding them just for a matter like this? They are not wrong, this is because I am not careful.” Not yet Alex denied it, Khiara has opened her mouth again.

“Already! I'm it's okay. You disperse, don't throw away the roses. L like it! Don't listen to this madman! ” The batas then pass from there.

Cinnamon? Just now he's talking to Alex with a crazy word?

Oh, Alex was infuriated by it. But unfortunately he can't be angry with her. Khiara was the first to dare to address him and frustrated him for being powerless to hurt him. If it was anyone else, Alex would've blown his head off.

The servants were flabbergasted by the only woman this master had ever brought. This woman is really brave. No one dared to go against their master before. But this woman actually dared to yell at her master so that her master did not dwell on her making.

“Why are you still there? You guys want to get chopped by him?” Khiara turned to them out of carelessness.

“You just bring me a medicine box!” Here Alex is in power, but why did Khiara rule them?

"Nice, miss." All the servants immediately scattered away leaving the two of them.

Alex clenched both of his hands and breathed out his heavy breath violently. But a second later a faint smile fell on the corner of his lips. It's better for him. It's better for Khiara to be like this than to cry without her knowing what's causing it. It will only make it more frustrating.

Without Alex realizing it, this woman had already defeated her authoritarian attitude, and made her more patient.

Be patient? Oh, actually Alex is a patient person. But patience here is patience waiting to get something bigger. Like a lion waiting for its prey.

While with Khiara, he had learned to be patient in the real sense.

Alex takes over the medicine box from Khiara's hands. Clean the wound and treat it in silence. Not a single sound came out of their lips. Even the servants standing on one side of the room did not dare to make a sound.

They were still in disbelief, this was the first time they had seen his master treat someone's injuries. Again this is the first time. A smile etched in their hearts, this woman would be able to soften her master. Well, they were convinced that this woman was of great value to their master.
