Is Love For Carla

Chapter 2

The Carla POV

I opened my eyes slowly, spreading my gaze around the room. I realized immediately that my body was lying on my bed with a blanket covering my body to the chest, and I felt something familiar to me. I also started to touch it. "Ahh...what is this?" muttered. I pulled a small fold of towel over my forehead which was now beginning to dry.

"This must be Alex doing it for me" I thought. With my position still lying I was pensive for a moment, I knew that behind his rude attitude, Alex actually still loved me very much, just like me who also loved Alex who was my first love. "Thank you," I said softly as I smiled a little smile at my lips while imagining the handsome face of my beloved Alex.

I looked at the wall clock in my room, "Ahh..astaga it's 12 o'clock in the afternoon, it's really noon apparently," I said in shock to see the clock showing the time that was very noon for me who now had no job since living with Alex. Yes, ever since I lived in Alex's house, he didn't allow me to work in my old workplace anymore, and asked me to just stay at his house because all my needs would be borne by him. I never lacked any necessities while living with Alex, everything I needed like clothes or food and everything else I wanted he always fulfilled except one thing, visiting my father in prison. And it made me very sad, because my father was the only family I had in the world, and my mother had left me since I was two.

Although my father was found guilty by the court, but in my little heart I was always convinced that my father was innocent, he was a good and honest man, I believe that someday justice will be on my father's side who must now feel the cold walls of the prison as a result of the slander of his co-workers in his former workplace.

And now my day-to-day activities are just being at Alex's house and taking care of his house like it's clean and cooking, even though Alex never actually told me to do any of those things, but I want to do it myself instead of doing nothing at all I thought. And once in a while without Alex's knowledge, silent - silent I often visit my father in prison, well even though it was eventually discovered also by Alex, Alex, until finally he scolded me and even often I had to take a blow or slap from him if I denied his words, but for me it does not matter as long as I have been able to visit my father, my heart is happy enough.

I tried to get up from my bed even though my body was now feeling weak, and "Ahh..my head.it hurts so much," I held my head that felt dizzy. Maybe it's because I cried all night I thought, and my body also felt a little feverish.

"Drrtt..drrtt...drrtt..," the ringing sound of my phone distracted me who was now sitting and leaning on the head of my bed. I also grabbed my phone which I put on the nightstand beside my bed.

"Ahh Alex apparently," I said after seeing the name of the caller listed on my phone screen.

"Hello Alex, what's wrong?" my spoken.

"Dear I woke up, sorry I was so bad I didn't see you when you left for the office this morning. And don't worry because I'm fine, I'm just a little unwell" I said trying to calm her down.

"If you're sick, you don't move much. Just rest in bed and do not do any activities at home. Later I will order food for you and will be delivered to the house" he said again.

"Well baby, thank you. And..mmm.thank you also for compressing my forehead this morning."

"Eumm..," that's all he said, but I know across the street he must be smiling right now, because that's how it usually responds every time I say thank you for the good things he did for me.

"O yes, if you can come home today quickly yes, because I am sakiiit," I said in a spoiled tone.

"Eumm.iya dear I will try, if today there is not much work, I will definitely go home quickly. Take good care of yourself - well at home, yes" he said in a soft tone.

"Okay well by the way," and I immediately hung up on that phone call.

I smiled with relief, because when his heart was calm I could also be a little spoiled with him. And I can't deny I've actually always been happy with every single attention he gave me.

"Alex you are the man I love in this world, may we be together forever. Even though you like being rude to me sometimes, I still love you" I murmured.
