Not long later, when Oscar felt his chest hurt, the man let go of his tight hug. But even so, his hands can't be far from Lisa. His left hand wrapped around the woman's waist while his right hand stroked her head.
"Today, I had an important business, so I couldn't have dinner with you and William. Forgive me."
"Well, who the hell wanted to wait for you to come home early so we can eat together anyway?" Lisa replied nonchalantly.
As usual, Lisa always does stupid things. It was okay to feel warm in her heart and her whole body seemed to scream Oscar's name, but it seemed that her brain and lips were controlled by different circuits.
Since when did Lisa turn out to be like this?
Actually, Lisa is the most extraordinary woman Oscar has ever met. It's just that Oscar was still confused by that woman's temperament. If the air around them was mellow and they confessed how much they missed each other, now Lisa is saying the opposite.
But Oscar was too tired and his body ached all over to deal with the woman's temperament.
"Wait a minute," Lisa suddenly said, "Why do your clothes and appearance look so messy?"
Oscar removed his hand from her body and patted the dust that stained his clothes. "Yeah, I accidentally fell when I was about to take out the trash."
Hearing that of course made Lisa frown. How could this man trip over with his own feet? Let's say he was saying the truth, then his clothes shouldn't look this dirty.
Before Lisa could ask any further, Oscar changed the topic of their conversation.
"Ah, looks like we can't sleep in the same bed tonight."
With his whole body looking battered and not to mention the dry wounds on his back, how could Oscar let Lisa lie next to him tonight?
It was true that he didn't really feel the pain in his body from the medicine Bryan had given him, but he knew that the side effects wouldn't last long. He was one hundred percent sure that he would not be able to sleep well tonight.
Besides, if they slept in the same bed, Lisa would definitely see his wounds. He would make the woman panic and ask many questions that would only add to his headache.
Actually, Oscar meant well. He didn't want Lisa to be worried. It's just that discussing this after Lisa 'accidentally' read the text he sent to the mysterious woman really isn't the time!
Hearing that suddenly made Lisa's heart feel empty. It turned out that what she had imagined all day long was true. Oscar started to approach another beautiful woman and planned to dump her.
"You don't have to talk to me about it, I really don't want to sleep in the same bed with you anyway." Lisa replied coldly.
Oscar sighed, "Alright. You can sleep in my room while I sleep in the guest room."
"Oh! I'd rather sleep in the guest room instead of having to sleep in your musty-smelling bed!"
Of course what Lisa said is not true. Once a week, the man would change his bed sheets and make sure Mrs. Rusminah always bought perfume.
How could the sheets smell musty?
Lisa folded her arms in front of her chest and looked closely at the man's bright blue eyes. For a few seconds, they looked at each other intently, as if trying to read their minds.
"Whatever you say. The important thing is that I have taken the initiative to offer you to sleep in my room, which is much more spacious and comfortable." Oscar replied finally.
"I'm going to bed first, it's getting late." Lisa exclaimed impatiently. The woman turned around and said, "You know that I wasn't waiting for you to come home!"
Again, Oscar sighed and could only see Lisa disappear in darkness. She was indeed too stubborn and often made him feel confused. Still, Oscar would never regret putting his heart on that stubborn woman.
In that very second, after Lisa had disappeared from his sight, Oscar just realized that his forehead and back were wet with sweat. His body ached all over, and cold sweat filled his whole body!
After hearing the door close quite loudly, Oscar was just climbing up the stairs. He entered his room which was already cold from the air conditioner, and saw that his bed looked a mess. The gray blanket was untidy and part of the blanket had swept the floor, and the pillow on the left was at the foot of the bed.
It all gave him a sign that Lisa had waited in his room.
That night, as Oscar had expected, he couldn't sleep well at all. Every time he changed his sleeping position, the man's eyes would open wide and his lips let out a groan.
Not to mention he was used to feeling the warmth of Lisa's body. Now, apart from his body aching all over and the absence of Lisa here, the man couldn't sleep well at all.
Around 3:30 in the morning Oscar finally closed his eyes and felt the dream coming to him slowly but surely.
***
Oscar's eyes opened wide and the man sat on his soft bed. Unlike usual, he woke up because he was cold and saw Dani's face which was covered in fresh blood in his dream.
"Shit...." Oscar grumbled while rubbing the back of his neck.
After lying in bed for a long time, he got up and descended the stairs. Even though he was still on the second floor of his house, he could already hear the laughter of William and Lisa.
They must have been in the dining room and enjoying their breakfast.
Hearing the sound of footsteps not far from her made Lisa look up. When she saw Oscar enter the dining room while still wearing his pajamas, Lisa averted her eyes and preferred to look at the chicken porridge made by Mrs. Rusminah.
Unlike her, who immediately became silent, William looked excited to see his father's presence. His cheeks swelled with a wide smile and his eyes sparkled.
"Good morning, Papa!" William said cheerfully.
