Naughty Sugar's
[18] The Night Without You
**ELENA POV **
I stared at the lights in my room because I couldn't sleep. It was raining outside and the room was getting colder because no one was hugging me tonight. Max, why isn't he coming home? Was my word outrageous enough? But wasn't I right? He put on a face like that just wanted to trap me. After that I was trapped and it was hard to get out. He'll hurt me and go back to repeating what he did to Sister Irene.
But...why is my heart so worried about thinking about it? What the hell is he doing out there? Is he really not coming home tonight? I got up from my bed, pulled my thin satin shirt and walked to the window. The rain is getting heavier and I don't know why I keep thinking about it? Did I just call?
I thought for a long time, I finally got out of the room. All the rooms looked dim, but I went down the stairs to the first floor. I'll call him on the house phone. As soon as I was downstairs, I fell silent for a moment, again thinking whether it was better to contact him or not. What if I cross the line? Boundaries where a partner who does not love each other, but worries about each other. Max was very clear always said his worries to me, but I couldn't let my feelings go; it was growing like a flower that every day Max flushes well. I just don't want what happened to Sister Irene to happen again.
“Nona?” someone's voice made me turn my body around and find Jon holding Ryan's bang.
“Oh Jon, you surprised me,” I said scratching my own neck. “What's wrong with Ryan?” my many.
“Difficult to sleep, while tomorrow he has to go to school. Since childhood he was like this and now I am quite difficult to carry him because his weight continues to rise,” said Jon and I can only chuckle to hear it.
“What is Miss doing late at night like this?” ask Jon. “Sorry if it makes Miss uncomfortable with me saying this, but I've assigned Master to keep looking after Miss. Even at night I will continue to monitor Miss.”
I spread my smile. Max's worries were too much, but somehow it made me feel even more uneasy with my treatment this afternoon in Max's room.
“Nona? You better go back to the room. Let me drop off,” said Jon and I shook my head.
“I want to contact Max. Tonight he didn't come home,” I said pick up the handle of the house phone and stick it to my ear.
“Master didn't come home tonight Miss. Her work could not be left behind and asked Miss to rest because today has come see casting.”
Slowly my fingers stiffened. Not usually Max doesn't tell Tina or maybe Tina doesn't have time to tell me?
“Did Max contact you? Why didn't he tell me?” ask her.
“Sorry Miss, I thought you said it to my mother. Master just asked me to be tighter looking after Miss when she was not around,” said Jon made me close the phone that I had held back to where it was.
“Oh is that?” I was a little disappointed that he didn't send me any message.
“Nona, let's go to the room,” said Jon and I nodded slowly.
I kept thinking about Max's feelings this afternoon all the way to the room. I don't know, is he avoiding me? Or really busy with work. Just thinking about those two possibilities made me feel bad.
“Jon, deliver me to Max's office tomorrow morning. Contact Rain before we leave and ask if Max is in the office.”
“Good Miss. Good night!” jon said shutting the door to my room, which was cold tonight without Max by my side.
Lordy! What is this feeling? Why do I keep thinking about it?
***
Jon says that Max is very busy today. He couldn't be found this morning and somehow irritated me to hear it. “Tina, bring back the stock!” I said in an annoyed tone. I prepared breakfast for him, but what did he say? She busy? I made sure he avoided me. Lookie! He's sick of playing pull-out with me! Yesterday he just kind of expressed his feelings to me, but now what?
“Nona, although this morning you were not found. Secretary Rain said Mr. Rain will be home soon. Today there will be reading with the crew after married program, then the Master asked Miss to stand by to help some crew install cameras in some places in this house. Later they will talk about camera installation with Miss after arriving,” said Jon and I nodded in understanding.
“Alright, then we don't need to go to the office. I'll read my script and wait for the crew to arrive. What time do they arrive?”
“Siang later Miss 12.”
“Jam 3 pm, Miss.”
I nodded and went to my room. Taking a script that only explains some of the scenes that we will take in the initial episode. I also read some notes from the screenwriter. They didn't force me to act too far. Everything will be made as natural as possible without any coercion.
Well, in this case, I think I should be ready to be blasphemed by netizens because sometimes I reflex to be indifferent to Max or maybe rude to him. Max is right, maybe after this program is aired on TV, I will receive a lot of insults because it is not suitable to be his partner. Sometimes I get so scared of what's going on. I didn't know what Max was supposed to be like and I didn't know which Max was being really sincere or just pretending. I'm scared. Yeah I'm so scared.

I fell asleep while waiting for the TV crew who said they would install some cameras in some places in the house. “Stupid!” I hit my own head.
Hurry up I get out of bed, but..why am I in bed? Wasn't I on the couch? I looked all over the room and heard Max outside.
“He's home?”
I saw a clock on the wall showing at one o'clock in the afternoon. While Jon says Max will be home later that afternoon, then why is he home? I immediately followed to the source of the sound. I saw Max waiting for one of the crew to put a camera in front of our room.
“You're up?” max's voice with the hand he put in his pants pocket. “Basic buffalo! I told you to wait for the crew to come,” he said making me grunt with annoyance that was greeted with a smile by the TV crew.
“It's okay. There's a lot of help here anyway. Looks like the waiter here also knows the written and unwritten rules of this house. They were the ones who helped us install some cameras in this house. They also banned some of your private places, one of which is this room.”
Max seemed to smile broadly proud of himself never choosing the people he worked with. Oh, the truth is that. They do work well. I never found a flaw from Max's waiter. They do things very neatly and do not disappoint.
“This room is very private,” said Max while embracing my shoulder and pulling it very close.
Last night I couldn't smell her scent now it felt somehow a little paid off. Ah no! I think this is crazy! There's no way I can hook him.
“Yes, Sugar?” his whisper in my ear made me glare at him and almost pushed him like I often do, but Max held him back. His eyes beckoned towards the crew who were watching us.
“Hahaha, ishh yaiyalah private!” I said directly hit his chest. “We can't possibly share stories in the room either? Fishing them from the front of the room was enough. The rest let them guess what's going on in there,” I said sounds really stupid, but Max laughed out loud.
“You really are getting more and more adorable days!”
Max pulled my body to face him and brought his face closer to me. He stuck our noses together, making me powerless to close my eyes because I wasn't strong with what Max was doing. He was really smart to take everyone's heart to cooperate with him, but why was my heart pounding? Even this event has not yet begun. Max is brash! What did he do to me?!
“Uhh! I can't stand your arrogance,” joked the crew slowly descended from the stairs that I reflexively held.
“Thank you,” he said to me while taking the stairs he used earlier. “I think this program will really get a very high rating! All viewers will be impatient!”
Max chuckles while ruffling my hair. “I also can't wait to share our affection together on everything. I want to show people out there that I can be successful until now because there is a great woman beside me and that woman is.my wife,” Max said to make me look straight up; he said; the direction of his smiling face as usual on some crew who are now on arrival and of course with the camera that has been lit.
After that, I didn't know what he was saying because everything seemed to pass by not at all into my ears. I could only stare at Max, who smiled occasionally, held my cheek, stroked it, kissed it, and also landed his kiss on my lips.
Max, what is he planning this time for me? He said he was successful because there was a great woman by his side? He was successful long before he married me. Now it's strange that I can't judge whether it's bad or just the opposite.
