187 Be With A Good Man
“Tomorrow, I’ll take you to the midwife here. Or we could go to the hospital in city,” Kai said considerately. “When was the last time you checked your pregnancy?”
“Before I came to this village,” Kalea replied.
“That was a long time ago. You should have just told me from the start, Lea. Poor baby....”
Kalea smiled slightly, looking at Kai’s worried look at her somehow appealing to Kalea’s eyes. “Then take me there tomorrow, okay? Anywhere as long as it’s with you,” the girl said who immediately made Kai’s heart beat fast. Of course, he was happy to hear the words of Kalea, the girl he loved.
“Does that mean you also um... reciprocate my feelings?” Kai asked starting to hope for more, because there had been no rejection from Kalea regarding her feelings of love.
The faint smile that was originally on Kalea’s lips slowly faded. It made Kai turned into anxious, his thoughts became negative if Kalea would reject him. And apparently, what he thought was quite true.
“Sorry, Kai. For now, I can’t confirm it. I also don’t want to trouble you further because it’s not your fault, you shouldn’t be responsible,” Kalea replied hoping Kai would not be discouraged.
“I’m fine, Lea. I love you, no matter what your condition is.”
“You’re very kind, but I don’t feel worthy of it,” Kalea replied with a bitter smile. She took both of Kai’s hands, holding them gently. Her hazel eyes gazed at the emerald eyes that was so cool and comfortable to look at. “but I’m very happy to know your feelings of love for me, Kai.”
.....
“Then accept me,” Kai pleaded now taking charge, it was he who grasped Kalea’s hand tightly now as if unwilling to let go.
The brunette girl was silent for a moment, thinking about what she should do next if it was like this. Honestly, Kai was a good man and made her feel comfortable, a man that everyone should love and be proud of. However, the romantic feelings had not really appeared in her heart. Kalea felt tired of the romance drama, not to mention she had to focus more on the baby in her stomach.
“Lea... I changed my mind. No need to force it, I don’t want to add more burden to your mind,” Kai said who could not bear to see Kalea’s expression that looked depressed as if the girl had a lot on her mind.
“I need time, Kai. Give me time,” Kalea said returning the gaze of the man with scarlet hair.
Kai smiled and nodded slowly. “I will faithfully wait for you. No matter how long it takes, and let me be responsible for your life and the baby’s life,” Kai replied as he gently stroked Kalea’s stomach.
***
Dariel received a text message from Zeline that the girl was waiting in the hospital lobby. After finishing handling patients before lunch break, he rushed to the blonde girl with mixed feelings and did not expect that Zeline would come to his hospital. She did not stop worrying all the way to the lobby and even some nurses were confused to see her.
His feelings were slightly relieved when he saw Zeline really there in good condition. He immediately approached the girl. “Hey,” Dariel greeted with both hands in his white coat pockets.
Zeline looked up, she patted the chair on the side for Dariel to sit next to her. Of course, Dariel happily complied. “What’s wrong? You don’t usually ask to meet even here. I told you if you want to go out later when you’re with me, don’t be alone,” Dariel said, continuing to talk along the railroad tracks.
“Argh, you’re so noisy. You’d better take this, you haven’tn had lunch yet, right?” Zeline asked as she handed the man a two-tiered wooden lunch. Dariel blinked staring silently at the lunch with no intention of accepting it. “Hurry up and accept it, why are you silent?!” Zeline grumbled in annoyance.
Dariel immediately accepted the lunch even though he still could not believe what happened. Why did Zeline suddenly give him lunch? “Is there a celebration or something?” asked Dariel as he opened the lunch box. It contained normal food and seemed edible. There wasn’t anything suspicious
“What’s wrong? I can’t bring you lunch?” Zeline asked angrily, but this girl’s patience was as thin as tissue.
“That’s not what I meant. Is there something you want to talk about? You still need a lot of rest, darling,” Dariel replied very considerately as he gently stroked Zeline’s blonde hair although this did not last long as the girl immediately brushed him off.
“This is a public place. Aren’t you embarrassed if people see a doctor making out with a beautiful and sexy young girl like me?”
“Why should I be embarrassed? I’m actually proud. Everyone can only look at you in amazement, but I can have you,” Dariel replied, which immediately made Zeline shiver with amusement. “By the way, can I eat now?”
“Of course, you should eat not just to be looked at.”
“I was going to do that. I’ll keep this lunch in my memory forever.”
“Fuck you, that’s disgusting.”
Dariel just chuckled amusedly in response, then started eating one of the girl’s tuna sandwiches. “Who did you come here with? Aren’t you afraid of Dante catching you?” Dariel asked.
“Didn’t you say he’s been made to suffer by his wife? Don’t scare me, damn it!” Zeline grumbled uneasily again, which made Dariel stop eating and immediately held Zeline’s hand to calm her down.
“No, sweetheart. Dante won’t come, you’re safe with me. I’m so sorry,” Dariel said, feeling very guilty. Zeline’s trauma has not yet disappeared, of all the suffering the girl has always had during her time as a sugar baby, the suffering from Dante is the worst. Dariel also made a schedule for the girl to go to a psychiatrist to cure the trauma. Stupidly, he still made a joke with Zeline. “You’re coming home with me later, huh? Just wait in my place.”
“Is that okay?” Zeline asked with a slightly frightened look on her face.
Dariel nodded. “We’ll just move there now.” The man organized his things to move to the private room he had in his family’s hospital. Zeline shook her head softly when Dariel attempted to take her arm. They were still in a public place and Zeline did not want any strange rumors before their relationship was appropriate to be made public.
Once in Dariel’s private room, the man locked the door. He told Zeline to relax on the sofa and there was even a bed there. Zeline really just found out that Dariel has a place like this. And actually the reason Zeline came to the hospital and brought lunch for her lover was because she missed Dariel. She was bored at home when her two younger siblings were busy at school. She also has not been able to go to college as usual because she is still afraid that Dante will come and look for her even though until now she does not know how her ex sugar daddy is doing. Dariel has not told in detail about this. Because she was so bored and wanted to see Dariel, she was really desperate to get out of the house by driving her car to her lover’s workplace.
“You want to know what happened to your ex-sugar daddy, don’t you?” Dariel asked, as he took off his white coat on a teakwood clothes hanger. He sat his butt down next to Zeline again and continued eating his lunch.
“Yes. You haven’t told me yet.”
“Take it easy, sweetheart. He’s already got his karma. Because it turns out that not once or twice his wife caught Dante cheating on her, but because the wife was stupid or Dante was good at lying, Dante always got away with the depraved affair,” Dariel said at length.
“Is he divorced?” Zeline asked.
“Yes, this time his wife was no longer stupid after the evidence was given and all the employees of the company owned by Elena’s family learned of Dante’s ruin. Of course, it embarrassed their extended family.”
The corners of Zeline’s lips lifted even if only slightly. She leaned her head on her lover’s broad shoulder and said, “I also felt stupid for thinking that I was the only one playing with sugar daddies. Turns out he has a lot of mistresses too. You bastard, I want to spit in his face,” Zeline grumbled in annoyance, still not accepting how the bastard had treated her. “But isn’t just being divorced unbalanced by all his actions so far?”
“I’m sure it’s not just that. Elena’s family is quite influential, just like Arthur. Dante is just too brave for playing around behind their backs.”
On the other hand, Dante, who no longer has any power and has been cornered by various parties, is really down. Elena, his wife who has always trusted and loved him very much, now seems to have turned into a devil. It looks like Dante really woke up the devil who had been sleeping in Elena’s body.
No matter what he says, Elena won’t believe him. Dante is now in a small room in his house. It seemed to have been transformed into a shabby and smelly place. He could not do anything because his hands and feet were shackled. Dante’s situation is so desperate that it feels like deja vu with what he once did to Zeline, the ex sugar baby who ignited his emotions.
Dante groans in frustration, he can not even scream because of the black duct tape that locks his mouth shut. No matter how hard he tried to break free, it did not work. He was upset because surely everything that had happened was Zeline’s doing, because after the naughty girl had run away, suddenly his cover was blown. Although it seemed impossible to Dante if Zeline could do it.
Soon the sound of the door being unlocked was heard. The door opened with Elena there, looking coldly at Dante.
