It was silent for a moment when the room now left only three people there. Dave stepped closer to Alana who had fallen silent and sat down beside her.
“Alana, does it still hurt on your shoulder?” ask Dave worriedly.
Alana just silently bit her lips, then shook her head slowly.
“We go to the hospital yes,” persuade Dave later.
Alana looked up at Dave's face, she grimaced as she held onto his painful shoulder. He thought his shoulder must have been bruised.
“No need Dave. I'm doing fine. You want to go to the office right,” said Alana with a voice quite loud, she smiled covering the pain in her shoulder.
“But Alana–”
“I'm fine Dave. Go, I'll check my own wounds. It just needs to be compressed a little.” Alana got up from the floor, grimacing in pain.
Dave looked at Alana with confusion, on one side today he had to attend a meeting early in the morning that he could not represent, he said, but on the other hand the worry and guilt ambushed when where Alana was hurt for helping her.
“Sir will we postpone the meeting?” zain asked, opening his voice.
“No need Zain. Wh-wh-what for? I'm not okay. Don't worry, I'll go back over to the room,” said Alana.
“I'll take you.” Dave wants to drive Alana.
Alana shook her head, limping away from Dave's sight. “No need. I can do it myself, see you at the office later.”
Alana stepped up quickly, moving away from Dave. Didn't even let Dave open his voice, but the man intended to say that Alana didn't have to go back to the office. But, seeing the attitude of Alana who feels Dave's head will all be free.
Alana continued to step slightly running towards her room, without intending to look back. As soon as he arrived at his room, without realizing it his tears seeped down to his cheeks. Not only was his shoulder throbbing, but it was also a stab of shame in his heart. He knows if logically thought, what he says is only natural if the marriage that happens is common to him. But given the background that happened. Alana wants to scream.
“Ahh why am I like a prostitute,” his siss when remembering the most vulgar and disgusting words she said in front of Natasha and her husband's family earlier. With tears flowing non-stop, Alana lamented for herself.
****
Alana groaned on the bed, as she undressed. Seen his shoulder bruised, sore, sore and felt something cracked inside. Natasha's punch really left her helpless, lucky that Dave was protecting her. If not, the head will likely come crashing. Today there was an office meeting, so he had to keep coming to work. If it wasn't there, Alana would probably prefer a break.
“This is the price I have to pay when married to a man of different castes. I haven't even done anything to avenge my heartache on Edo. But, with Dave. Nothing yet, I have received insults many times. I'm like a lowly woman in their eyes.” Alana sighed, then moved slowly towards the dressing table. “But, at least I can treat my mother. I want mom to get well,”.
He stood in front of the mirror and examined his shoulder. Then, his movements stopped he rubbed his cheeks, then to his lips. Until not long he cursed himself, when he realized his actions earlier.
****
Dave's mercy car slowly sped from his residence. Along the way to his office, Dave was silent at the thought of Alana at home.
While Zain would occasionally glance back, like there was something he wanted to ask. The action was caught by Dave.
“Why Zain? Anything you want to ask?” ask Dave.
“I don't understand.” Zain continued to drive his car occasionally to honk.
“Master, I really do not understand and do not believe,” Zain reset while tapping the handle of his car when the car stopped at a red light.
Dave took his breath. “Understanding what?”
“Understand what Miss Alana said,” replied Zain.
“Which one?”
“Master, are you really masochist?”
Dave grunting. Her memory returned the imagined how Alana said she was a sufferer of the disease ***** deviated. She thinks Alana's gonna be a pregnant woman, or something. He did not expect the woman to choose any other way. But if you think more deeply. It's good that Alana said that, the proof is Natasha so cancel the match, and if Alana chooses to pretend to be pregnant, what the drama will be like in the future.
