Consorts of the Heart Mr. Billionaires

Chapter.18 (The destruction of Alfaro's pride)

In the morning, Alfaro got up from his sleep, he sat on the bed holding his head which felt so heavy. Before long his stomach felt so nauseous, he quickly went to the toilet, spewing out all his entrails in the sink.

"Ah my head hurts so much" he complained to himself.

Last night, I don't know how many bottles of drink he spent, until it ended like this. Actually he was not a man who used to drink the cursed drink, but last night he forced himself to gulp the drink.

Alfaro moved towards the bathtub, resuscitating his body in the water that began to flow filled the bathtub. He closed his eyes, it felt so relaxed when cold water hit his hot skin.

For almost an hour he soaked until he finally came out with a kimono towel. His head still felt so heavy, he decided to go to the kitchen, take mineral water to wet his throat which was so dry.

Just as he was coming out of the room, his sense of smell circulated the smell of cooking that made his stomach rumble. Slowly he moved towards the kitchen, he was shocked when he saw from a long haired woman standing behind him.

"Who are you?"

The woman was of course Arumi, she turned to look at Alfaro who was standing behind her. Alfaro frowned in surprise, how could Arumi be in his apartment. As he remembered he didn't tell anyone if he was here.

"Master is awake" Arumi said, smiling at Alfaro.

"Why are you here?" ask Alfaro confusedly.

"Last night I came here to look for you, you forgot what happened last night" Arumi said.

"Genesis? what happened to you-" Alfaro said was cut off as the pieces of memory began to reunite, he remembered how he hugged Arumi, then cried in front of Arumi, cursing and also throwing drink bottles at the wall.

"No. no way!" alfaro shouted, it felt like he was so embarrassed when he remembered the incident. He could cry in front of a woman. Her mother never saw her cry. Destroyed was his pride as an authoritative man.

"Sir you okay?" asked Arumi with a worried look.

Alfaro did not even dare to look at Arumi, he immediately left the kitchen at such a fast pace. It's better that he just disappeared now. Arumi stared at Alfaro's departure in confusion.

"He's why," said Arumi while blocking kepegian Alfaro.

Inside the room, Alfaro directly threw his body onto the bed.

"Oh, damn, why could I do such a thing in front of him, he must think me so pathetic right now."

Before long, Arumi entered the room with a tray of soup and a glass of warm milk in her hand. Alfaro closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Arumi gasped when she saw Alfaro on the bed. He moved closer, placing a tray of food on the table beside the bed.

"Sir.. let's get up, it's morning why sleep again," said Arumi as she patted Alfaro's shoulder.

Alfaro began to open his eyes slowly, then changed his position to sit on the bed, as if nothing had happened, and did not remember anything. He hoped that Arumi would not discuss the incident.

"What's that?" alfaro asked as he looked at the food on the tray.

"Oh this is meat soup, good to relieve the influence because of drunkenness," said Arumi.

"Where can you get meat?"

"i went shopping in indo*aret which is open twenty-four hours across this apartment," he explained.

"Oh so."

Arumi took the tray and placed it in the lap of Alfaro who was currently sitting cross-legged on the bed.

"Please eat it" Arumi said, smiling at Alfaro.

Alfaro lowered his head, looking at the soup that was on the tray. It felt so shameful to have to be in front of Arumi after what happened, it seemed once if he was just a weak man crying from a broken heart. But the rice has become porridge, better face it.

"What's delicious?" ask Arumi.

"Lumayan."

"Master," call Arumi.

"What?" Alfaro now turned to look at Arumi who was sitting in front of him.

"Why did you get drunk like last night just because of a broken heart" said Arumi.

"Have you ever loved someone and been left behind?"

"Never, but don't let that happen" she replied, shaking her head slowly.

"If not, you will never understand even if I explain it," said Alfaro then back to enjoy the food.

"Truely, do not let it happen to me, it turns out that heartbreak can make people lose their identity," said Arumi.

"What do you mean?" alfaro asked, staring intently at Arumi.

"Yes, I saw for myself how you cried, yelled, threw bottles and got drunk. It's all too extreme, isn't it."

"Don't talk about it, I'm too embarrassed to listen to it from you!" cry Alfaro.

"Yes sorry."

"But Mr.."

"What else!"

"Forcing yourself to continue to dissolve in adversity will only hurt yourself. Relief though difficult, because he who you choose is not necessarily the fastest for you to love." said Arumi.

Alfaro was only silently stunned, then continued eating without responding to Arumi's remark. Arumi has a point, he has to get out of the slump, but maybe he will walk slowly.

"If you're done, you better go home" Alfaro said.

"I will go home but not to your mansion, as agreed I can go back to my house every weekend, tomorrow I will go back to work and go home to the Mansion."

"Yes, whatever."

"Then I say goodbye to go home, sir, see you at the office tomorrow" said Arumi who had moved from her seat.

Alfaro only fell silent as he looked at Arumi's departure. He forgot that Arumi had a day off serving him every Sunday, but he wanted it so much now.

I shouldn't have given her a day off, when I wanted her like this, I couldn't possibly force her right, what a bitch, Alfaro's inner self.

Arumi was out of the apartment building. He picked up the phone in his bag to contact Dinda. He had not met his best friend for a few days, he felt so long, there were many things he wanted to tell Dinda.

"Hallo Din, today we go for a walk" Arumi told Dinda when the phone was connected.

[You're off, haha. Okay, we go anywhere, as long as you treat.]

"Okay, ready."
