Prison of the CEO's Heart

Is This a Dream?

Happy reading!

The unstoppable sadness washed away Raymond's feelings tonight. The night of thousands of nights in his life, the first one he had passed through was scarred.

"It turns out this is how sadness feels, I think the pain of losing Grandma is the most pain I feel, it turns out I was wrong, this is much more painful."

Raymond snorted violently. He began to wipe away the tears that escaped from the corner of his eye.

"Albert, I want to go to a normal place, take me there!" tell Raymond in a loud voice.

"Every sir" replied Albert, who turned his wheel straight towards the place Raymond was referring to.

A place where Raymond often spent time, in a time tired of his work routine.

The London Eye or Millennium Wheel is the largest observation wheel in the world at 135 meters or 443 feet. The London Eye is located above the river Thames.

The car stopped at the London Eye parking lot.

Raymond opened the roof door of his car wide, to enjoy the surrounding scenery that can always make him calm.

"Watch Albert tonight! I can't understand myself, can my life be happy tomorrow without Alice?" raymond asked.

Albert followed Raymond's orders, he did not hesitate anymore, changed the position of his chair to be a little asleep and began to enjoy the beautiful scenery around.

"Sir, may I give you some advice?" asked Albert, although hesitant, but he tried to ventured.

"Say! I'll listen" said Raymond.

"Pursue Miss Alice if you love her, because my mom used to tell me, Mister, isn't life really easy? If you miss, come. If you are not happy, say it. If you are jealous, emphasize. If you are hungry, eat. If heartburn, throw away. If it's wrong, correct it. If you like, state. If you love, show me. People often complicate everything. Ego prevents someone from saying "I need you", so if you really need Miss Alice, tell her to know what Mr. Raymond really feels like," albert said while mimicking his mother's tone of voice while giving him advice, he turned to Raymond hoping his words were not wrong and got him punished.

Raymond digested Albert's words that were able to stir his heart. He thought hard, his intelligent brain began to work to sort out all the words that entered into his ears.

What did Albert say was true as well?

Raymond nodded slowly. It was like finding an answer to his worries.

"Let's go home Albert, tomorrow morning I'll fly to Australia."

Albert swiftly welcomed Raymond's orders, his seat position began to be re-established and began to drive his car to the house.

May Mr. Raymond succeed in bringing Miss Alice back.

Albert smiled slightly with his own mind, he focused on gazing forward, breaking through the traffic jam in the city of London.

1 Hour finally Raymond's luxury car entered the courtyard of the house.

Albert deftly got out of the car, to help Raymond get down.

"Be careful sir" said Albert, and Raymond's body entered his house.

Slowly Albert led Raymond to his living room couch, with difficulty Albert finally managed to give a comfortable place for Raymond to stop before heading to his room, then Albert quickly returned to the outside of the house, to close the car door that has not been closed.

Albert came back to Raymond, but he was not alone, he had brought some people to help him to his room at the end of the 2nd floor.

Arriving in front of the room.

Raymond stared at the door with his own eyes. He recalled the memories of Alice, who was always in his mind.

If I wasn't stupid, Alice would still be next to me tonight.

Raymond began to be swept into the room. His body began to be laid down on his big bed, a sense of comfort now began to drive away the tired and tired that was mixed in the gaping wound in his heart.

"Thank you for the help."

One sentence escaped from Raymond's mouth which made his 2 servants shocked. They looked at Albert, but Albert, who knew that Raymond had changed, smiled sweetly at the two.

"It is our duty, sir," answered one of the servants, after a few seconds of silence from hearing Raymond's words.

The three were quiet, letting Raymond whose condition looked bad to rest.

Raymond tried to close his eyes, but several times the shadow of Alice's face continued to lurk in his mind.

Alice I miss you, I hope we can meet in the dream.

Raymond scrunched his forehead, to lift his body slightly, seeking comfort in his sleep.

Several times he saw the figure of Alice passing in front of him, making the longing in his heart crept up again.

Raymond forced his eyes to shut. After a while, he finally began to fall asleep.

Suddenly his body felt a puff, Raymond blinked his eyes many times and slowly began to open.

Raymond stared at the face of a woman, who was now asleep beside him, but all was pseudo, his gaze so blurred that everything he saw became unclear.

"Are you Alice?" asked Raymond lirih.

"Yes Mr. Raymond, I came back, I saw you fall at the airport, I kept looking at you but your eyes kept on Albert."

Raymond smiled happily, his hand immediately returning Alice's embrace tightly.

"I'm sorry, I promise I won't hurt you again" Raymond said.

"Don't promise if you can't keep it, plant it and just aim it in your heart, let time prove to me whether you keep it or not,"

Raymond was still clutching Alice's body with a million questions in his heart.

Is this a dream?

If this is a dream, let it be, at least it treats my longing.

Raymond was unable to hold his eyelids to close, he finally fell asleep in a gap so warm for him.

Next Morning.

Sunlight began to rush into the cracks of the bedroom windows, accompanied by the sound of birds chirping in the morning adding to the beauty that was felt.

Raymond was still asleep, in the blanket that exposed his body.

The sound of knocking on the door of his room. Raymond was still unmoved, but the sound of the second knock made him inching, Raymond began to squirm, his consciousness gradually fused, resuscitating his voice, he said, last night's memory suddenly entered his mind to make him sit down quickly while looking left and right, looking for Alice's whereabouts.

His excited face, now instantly extinguished back dim, hope to meet Alice momentarily vanished.

It turns out that it was all just a dream.

Raymond breathed deeply.

What is Alice doing this morning?

Does he hate me so much now, that my message is not answered by him?

The sound of knocking on the door for the third time rang out, this time Raymond was quick to greet him.

"Yes a minute" said Raymond, moving to the front door.

Raymond stepped slowly, his forehead frowning feeling a slight dizzy feeling in his head.

Watch out for you Greta, I'll make a calculation with you.

Raymond was already standing in front of the room door, he began to open the door slowly, it was seen Risfa was waiting for him with patience.

"Sorry Risfa, if you wait too long for me."

Raymond's words made him spontaneously choke on his own saliva.

"Are you okay, Risfa?" asked Raymond who strangely saw Risfa, currently coughing.

"Why did Mr Raymond turn out like this huh? The existence of Miss Alice, was very influential for her," muttered Risfa still looking at Raymond in surprise.

Risfa daydreamed with all his thoughts about Raymond's change, which was very drastic and surprising to him.

"Risfa," call Raymond, who reawakens Risfa's reverie.

"Oh yes Sir, I'm sorry, Mr. Food is ready downstairs, get yourself tidied up as Mr. Nicholas is waiting!" risfa conveyed Nicholas' message to Raymond.

"Daddy must have wanted to ask about my problem with Alice" said Raymond, looking anxious.

Risfa said with a respectful bow to Raymond, while Raymond was still troubled by his anxiety.

What should I explain to Daddy?
