RED STAIN

...NADINES...

It has been 2 weeks since my marriage to Adrian. So far everything is still smooth and there are no significant changes. Communication between us continued, even though we rarely met. Sometimes he is at home, the activities he does are just eating or bathing.

I dare not ask Adrian about what business makes him rarely at home. Even about the pendrive and hard drive that Adrian already held, I did not ask what the contents were. Seeing the face of Adrian whose mood is always up and down makes nyaliku shrivelled to just mince words.

About Adrian who rarely comes home, I'm sure it has something to do with work. I can understand that. He works as a bodyguard as well as a big boss accomplice that makes Adrian's power needed 24/7. Of course wherever the boss goes he will follow behind.

TOKKS..TOKKS...TOKKS

The knock on the front door was heard by my ears. My body and eyes were still awake even though the clock had shown at 11 pm because I was too engrossed in reading Dad's literary collection.

Who's having a night like this?

What is Adrian? But it feels impossible. Just this afternoon the cold guy told me he wasn't coming home. If he comes home, there is no need to knock on the door. Adrian has his own key, so usually go straight in. The same thing happened to Ray.

I pulled up the blanket that covered my body and placed the literary book I was reading on the nightstand. Wearing short pajamas and feather sleeping sandals as footwear, I rushed towards the front door.

Before I open it, I will check first through the small door hole installed. The outcome? there's nobody outside. Who is knocking? My ears are normal. My hearing was also sharp, clearly there was a knock on the door.

TOKKS..TOKKS...TOKKS

The voice reappeared. But this time it sounded from the back door. What's the matter? Could there be demons? Or maybe there is a prankster who deliberately harms me these nights. But for what?

TOKKS..TOKKS...TOKKS

Knock the door faster now. This made me shudder even more in horror because I was alone here. Neighboring houses are also a long distance between homes, and I'm not very familiar with them.

Not wanting to think long, I immediately went back to the room to find my phone. I'll call Adrian or Ray and ask them to come home. Amidst the panic, I dialed Adrian's number and hoped he would pick it up.

But as it turns out, my phone call wasn't shared by either of them. Their numbers are inactive. Where are those two people? I'm getting more and more scared.

TOKKS..TOKKS...TOKKS

TOKKS..TOKKS...TOKKS

Ahhh..The voice is not lost either! The number of beats is increasing fast now.

Armed with only 10% guts and a mop stick in hand, I tried to bravely open the back door. The place where the sound came from.

My hands suddenly trembled as I was about to open the lock. When I turned the door knob and came out with a sagging step.I saw a tall man with a strapping body who was wearing a hoodie and his face was covered in black cloth.

"AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!" I screamed in shock at the stranger.

Not having time to give a fight because it was too shocked, the man immediately smothered my mouth and brought me into the house. My body was locked because of her tight embrace.

Not losing my mind, I elbowed her stomach with my hand and bit her palm as tightly as possible. Finally our bodies were released.

"Awhhhhhhh..shttt..sickness!!!" the man grimaced.

"K-k-you who?! Don't you dare go near...!!" the mop that had fallen down earlier I took it again and I pointed it at him.

Unexpectedly, the man opened the cloth covering his face and pulled behind the hoodie on his head.

"Adrian..????"

"Yes.this is me."

The guy I thought was a criminal turned out to be Adrian.

"Jeez..I guess who..bikin is scared!! Then you do anyway wear makeup like this, black-and-black already like a criminal!"

"I was in disguise.e it had to be like this!!"

"You're holding the keys to the house, why aren't you wearing them?"

"The whole story..."

Adrian was still silent stiffly standing in place. I looked at him from top to bottom. His appearance this time was completely different. Her hair is a little messy.and...

Fresh blood was seen pouring from his stomach. I looked back to see my pajama boss on my back. It was clear, there was a stain of blood tasting. It must have come from Adrian, because he had my body smothered.

"K-k-you're bleeding.why?" I approached him and rubbed his arms. Really, I just realized that he was holding a cloth to clothe the blood in his stomach so as not to come out more.

"Just a small wound.you helped me to get the P3K box.it's there!" Adrian pointed at the storage drawer near the dining table. I nodded according to his orders and immediately took the medicine box.

Honestly, when I saw the blood, my body immediately stiffened instantly. I don't know why, it feels like deja vu. When I saw the bloodstains on Adrian's body, the one in my shadow was Dad. Because the last time I saw blood, I lost Dad...

"Nad...?!!"

Adrian's call broke my daydream.

"M-m-sorry.I'm just confused and don't know what to do. Unknowingly, I shed tears. I got emotional.

"Give me the P3K box, I can treat this wound myself." said Adrian.

Looking at Adrian's deathly pale face and sitting limp, there was clearly no way he could treat his wounds alone.

"May I help..?"
