Chasing Love, My Little Wife..
Section 16
"Where's Brother Daniel?" Erin asked as she watched Bella climb down the stairs alone.
"You're here to see him?" Bella sat weakly while taking a deep breath. I'm married now.. Ahh it feels so weird..
"No hehe. You okay, Bell?"
"Hm.." This marriage made me forget about Brother Bastian who has left this world..
"Then yesterday why? I thought you were depressed so we came here early in the morning."
I'm really depressed about this crazy marriage..
Erin waited for an answer from Bella who had been silent since. He reached out his hand then patted Bella gently on the shoulder.
"I'm fine." Bella replied quickly.
"Thank God.. Since when did you get along with Brother Daniel? You even touched his arm. I wonder what hehe feels like." Bella turned her head quickly with a sharp eye
"What do you mean Rin? Don't think shit! I'm just helping him as a neighbor." Erin and Sari were staring at Bella, indicating that the two could not accept the answer.
"We know what you're like, Bell. Come on, don't be embarrassed if you like Daniel." Erin whispered. Bella's face turned red, Sari's hands stretched out and gently patted Bella's cheeks.
"Direct red haha, this is a good sign.."
"Remove!" Bella brushed aside Sari's hand which laughed crisply with Erin.
"Excuse me ..." The sound of someone in a black suit, made the atmosphere instantly silent. Daniel heard that, he got out of bed and watched from above.
"I don't accept guests sir." Reject Bella does not want her home in many people like yesterday.
"I'm from Miss's insurance." Bella didn't budge and just stared at him." Can I come in." Imbond asked.
"Hmmm please." Answer Bella ketus.
The man smiled, then walked in and sat right next to Bella.
"Sorry Miss, it might be a little time-consuming. I'm just here to make sure that brother Bastian really died." The words immediately made Bella's emotions explode.
"What do you mean sir? You thought my brother's death was a joke!!"
"It's not like that, either, Miss. I'm just making sure the insurance money's liquid."
"What difference! Isn't that the same as not believing?!" Daniel took a deep breath while smiling. He went down the stairs to mediate so that Bella would no longer misunderstand.
"I believe Miss, this is only for the conditions."
"What conditions? Just go! And bring these useless letters." When Bella's hand gets rid of the file on the table. Daniel's hand grabbed his fingers and held them. Erin and Sari looked up at that, while Bella was speechless as her heart raced fiercely. Moreover, now Daniel sits right next to him, to make the man from insurance feel bad and switch to sitting next to Erin.
"sorry. My sister doesn't understand it a little." Daniel's voice is soft.
"It's okay, sir. I'd like to see the death certificate from the hospital for us to make a report." Daniel tilted his body to face Bella who still did not say a word.
"The letters from the hospital, where did you put them? Let me take it."
"I'm just." Bella stood up and her hand automatically slipped from Daniel's. He did not even look towards Daniel and directly walked past his feet.
Ahh heart.. He said his legs hurt but could wander around like that!! Bella walks into Bastian's room and picks up a letter from the hospital that was placed in a closet. Bella did not immediately walk out, she glazed first while calming her feelings so as not to look stupid. I'll protest later not to touch me like I did... Bella walks out of the room and down the stairs and puts the file on the table.
"Sit here." Daniel patted the empty spot beside him.
"I'll just stand up." Daniel shifts his body, then pulls Bella's wrist gently for her to sit back, thus adding suspicion to Erin and Sari.
Daniel issued the contents of the file and took the death certificate and gave it to the insurance. Daniel often turned his head and threw a smile at Bella who tried not to care. Moreover, his two friends now pay attention to their movements, so that it makes Bella's body movements look stiff.
Brother Daniel!!! I knew he would be like now!! Erin and Sari will be suspicious and my marriage is exposed!!
"good. Thanks for the cooperation. The funds will be gone in one week. Excuse me.." The insurance man reaches out his hand to Bella, but Daniel welcomes her quickly.
"Say you want to rest? Why out?" Bella protested sitting up straight.
"I didn't say I wanted to rest but you told me to rest." Bella glanced at her two friends.
"Don't listen to it." Bella Sahut.
"You're so familiar." Sari muttered.
"Hmm suspicious.." Daniel smiled hearing that while Bella frowned.
"That's because of my neighbor Daniel." Bella replied weakly. It's only been a few hours since the wedding. But he's told lies over and over again. I will often lie after this, let alone Erin and Sari coming to the house often..
"We've been friends since Bell's baby..."
"Stop!! Stop that shit." Bella's chirps cut off the conversation. He stood up and walked over to his two friends and held onto his wrists." You're home! I'm suddenly dizzy." Erin and Sari are forced to stand up from Bella pulling her.
"I'll get some rest. You guys just continue." Daniel feels bad for Erin and Sari.
"No Brother! It's too late."
"Rather than you throw out your friend."
"I'm really dizzy." Eluh Bella felt that she had to take a stand.
"Yes we're home. You go to school tomorrow?" Erin asked with a clumsy smile.
"Yes school. Why shouldn't I go to school!!" Sari and Erin looked at each other with dumb faces. Bella's attitude even shows that Bella is hiding something.
"Yes too. It will go down. I'm home ya." Sari hugged Bella for a moment then alternated with Erin.
"See you tomorrow." Bella waved at her two friends and closed the door quickly. A long sigh blew but turned stiff as Bella turned around. Realizing that he is now home, the two are only with Daniel.
I shouldn't have kicked them out and left me with him. If yesterday it might not be a problem but now.. Bella was weakly bowed from not being able to see the beautiful scenery before her. For him, Daniel is very perfect and entered the criteria of a dream man. But, for now? Bella wants to go to school first especially she entered the nominal student achievement. He's my husband...
"Why did you come out, brother?" Bella's protest tried to cover up her awkwardness.
"I heard when the insurance officer said excuse me. Where did you put my shoes, baby." Bella takes a sandal from Bastian on the shoe rack and puts it next to Daniel's feet.
"It's got Brother Bas. Her clothes are also in the room if you want to wear them."
"Which room?"
"The room you were in." Daniel smiles and finally Bella says it herself if it's not her room." I haven't bought an extra bed." Imbuh Bella slow.
"Hm no problem. I'll sleep in Bastian's room and you'll be in your own."
"Seriously it's okay, brother?"
"Hm.. Ja. We were sober because I didn't have much money for our lives going forward. Sorry." Bella reads the look on Daniel's desperate face." If it's just your meal and school fees, I can handle it. I still have savings for it." Imbuh Daniel who actually feel awkward to say his limitations.
"Awhile.." Bella climbs the stairs and returns with a box of Bastian's relics for her.
"What's this?" Bella opened the box and showed it to Daniel.
"I've always been prejudiced against Brother Bas. But in fact, he's thinking about my future.." Daniel saw the contents of the box." Brother Daniel just focus on the company because Kak Bas has given this to us." Daniel was silent as he read one by one the writing on the envelope.
"No Bella. Just keep everything. Although I have nothing, but my savings are enough for us to live on for a while." Not feeling bad. But Daniel really wanted to take full responsibility for Bella's life, no matter how hard she was." It's your right." Daniel closes the box and shifts it to Bella.
"I'm too stupid to keep that, brother. Em's... I'm afraid of losing it again.." Bella answered, sliding the box back." I haven't told Bastian about my stupidity. So, just keep the money, brother. Give me pocket money as necessary." Daniel saw a regret on Bella's face now.
"What folly?"
