Revenge For Love's

Misbehavior

After lunch, they walked to the car park.

"I'll take you Aluna.

You don't look okay."

"No need Gerald, I can go home alone.

I'm okay, anyway."

Gerald kept on kekeh drove Aluna home.

Even this time he dared to hold Aluna's hand.

Aluna was so shocked when she received Gerald's treatment.

He then slowly removed his hand from Gerald.

The corner of his eyes looked towards Axel who was also staring at them.

That man must have been getting worse at himself.

"I'm sorry Aluna.

I'm just worried something's going on with you.

Please come home with me, Aluna."

"All right, Gerald."

Aluna is reluctant to resist Gerald's good treatment.

He could also see Gerald sincerely offering him help.

"Dear, comeon.

Take me back to my apartment." take Rose to Axel.

While Axel was just silent not responding to his invitation.

Axel's eyes were staring at Aluna's face, which looked so pale.

Aluna also looked different from usual.

Previously the girl looked strong in front of him even Aluna always responded to every rude remark casually.

But today is very different.

"We're parting ways here, Mr. Axel.

See you at the next meeting."

"Well Mr. Gerald."

Aluna immediately followed Gerald without looking at Axel.

He did not want to see that hateful look again.

Aluna and Gerald get in the car.

And then Gerald drove his car.

After their departure, Axel got into his car.

Rose intended to get into Axel's car, but he did not have time because Axel drove his car very quickly.

"Damn!" he said with annoyance.

--

Ariana is currently shopping at the supermarket.

This time he was shopping alone considering Aluna was lately busy.

So that he could not bear if he had to invite Aluna.

Aluna also needs to rest.

After she finished paying for all her groceries, Ariana then raised everything with both hands.

He didn't bring a trolley because he thought he could bring it all.

But the opposite is happening.

Ariana was unable to carry her enough groceries so everything fell to the ground.

"What am I supposed to do?"

Ariana saw all her shopping scattered on the ground.

Intending to collect everything back, someone even precedes it.

The man helped her collect her shopping.

Things he had experienced before, when his documents fell first.

And unexpectedly, the one who helped her right now was the same man as the man who helped her back then.

Ariana looked at James.

He suddenly regained his senses, and then turned his gaze in another direction.

James is Axel's best friend.

"Thank you."

Ariana then brought her groceries one by one.

"I'll help you take her Miss."

"No need for Sir.

I can take it all myself."

Ariana tried to reach all her shopping with both hands.

Even if he knew it wouldn't work.

He needed the help of others to bring some of his shopping.

James smiled.

Ariana is a very stubborn girl.

He then pulled some of Ariana's groceries from his hands.

James did not heed Ariana's gaze at all which would have been eager to turn down her help.

He then walked away from Aluna.

Arriving at the parking lot, James approached Ariana.

"Where's your car?

I'll put all your stuff in there."

"I didn't bring a car.

Thank you for your help.

I'll bring it all myself."

Ariana approaches James, intending to take his shopping.

James avoided it.

"Then I'll take you home."

"No, I can go home in a taxi."

James ignored it again.

The man walked into his car and put his shopping there.

"Until when are you gonna stand there, miss?

Come inside. I'll take you home."

Ariana was silent for a moment.

Eventually, he moved closer to James and got into his car.

James smiled again because of Ariana's funny behavior.

During the trip, there was no conversation between them.

Sometimes James looked at Ariana who was just silent from earlier.

He knows for sure why Ariana's response is now so different from the start they met.

Ariana must have considered him a bad man just like Axel.

I don't know why James can't stand the attitude that Ariana is showing him right now.

He then pulled his car over.

Ariana also knew.

He was confused by what James did.

Ariana then looked towards James who was looking straight ahead.

Then the man looked at her.

"You still judge me a bad guy, don't you?

I know how you felt seeing Ariana get hurt.

Just like the feeling I had when I saw Axe get hurt.

We are in the same position.

We don't want to see our friends hurt.

I'm friendly with Axe, doesn't mean I support his bad deeds.

I also know Aluna and know how she is.

I was a witness to their love struggle.

And I'm not actually sure that Aluna could do all that to Axe for no reason."

"If you do know all the truth, that's good Ariana.

That means my guess all along was true.

Aluna is innocent.

And as friends, we have to put the two back together."

"I don't think that's gonna happen, sir."

"Why are you saying that to Ariana?"

Ariana frowned.

James doesn't usually call it by name.

"I don't think we need to use Ariana's overly formal language.

Aluna I've taken it like my own sister.That means you're my sister's best friend isn't it?

And from now on you should also call me by name."

"alright.

It's up to you."

James chuckled at the annoyed look on Ariana's face.

"And now you can answer my question.

Why are you saying that Aluna and Axe can't reunite?"

"You know exactly how bad Axel's behavior was on Aluna.

Axel's sister was so dismissive of Aluna.

In fact, he did not give Aluna any chance to explain the truth."

"Yes you're right Ariana.

But what you think is not entirely true.

I'm sure Axel still loves Aluna very much.

It was just that his anger was covering up his feelings.

He was angry because he loved Aluna so much, right?

Can you imagine what Axel felt when he found out that the girl he loved so much had betrayed him."

"So what should we do James?"

"For now we have to let Axe realize his own feelings.

I'm sure slowly that feeling will grow back."

"Hem, you're right James.

The most important thing is to return the feelings of both."

"By the way, aren't you mad at me anymore?"

"I've never been angry at you."

"really?

But why are you so different from our first meeting?

You've changed since you found out that I'm Axe's friend."

"Not that time I was just upset.

But I'm not mad or hate you for Axel's sister."

"Goodoo.

That means, from now on I'll get your smile back."

"What?"

Ariana had no idea what James was saying.

"Before you smiled sweetly at me.

But after that, you turned into a bitch to me."

Ariana smiled at James' silly reply.

For some reason, James was happy to see that smile again.

"I'd rather see you smile like that."

This time Ariana was silent to James.

They both look at each other.

Until the sound of the car horn from behind disconnects their eye contact.

Both of them smiled wrongly.

James then turned on his car engine and drove back to his car.
