The Devil's Dribble Husband

Chapters 10. Caught (2)

Please ... Help me." Help me."

"Why doesn't the car start, anyway? Even though it is raining heavily.

A young couple repairs their car which breaks down in the rain.

"Please ... Help me." Help me."

"Railo, did you hear that? It seems like that as a woman asks for help."

The woman in the thick jacket shuddered in horror, hearing a very slashing roar on the sidelines of the rain.

"Udah, don't be horrified. If it's a bad guy who wants to rob us how? reply Railo who is focusing on checking the car engine.

"If he really asks for help how?" reply Rhea.

"Please ... Help me." Help me."

Railo stopped his activity when he heard the moaning. Her hair stood up, she felt goosebumps.

"Who asks for help in the middle of the night like this?" muttered.

"Help me." A groaning voice that meant that was again heard.

"Gyaaaa! Railo, look at that!"

Rhea screamed in terror as she saw a woman crawling from the side of the road with a ragged black ground. His long hair looked tangled and his blood-filled face looked extremely terrifying.

"Rhea, what's wrong?" Railo jumped in shock. He had not yet expressed himself, what Rhea had seen.

"Look at that," said Rhea, pointing at the woman creeping between the raindrops.

"Don't be afraid. Try the flashlight in that direction" Railo said while hiding behind Rhea.

"You said don't be afraid, but why are you hiding behind me?" rhea was upset. The flashlight in his right hand he pointed at the woman.

"I beg you, help me" the woman said again.

Rhea and Railo looked at each other and said, "He's not a ghost." The two young men also approached the figure of the horrible woman.

"Who are you? You why?" rhea asked while covering the body of the poor woman with the blanket she took from inside the car.

Rhea, let's have an interrogation later. Let's get him to the car first" Railo said. "Let's help me clean it up."

Railo and Rhea then drove the poor woman into their car. Deftly, Railo picked up the P3K box and provided first aid. However, the endurance limit of the woman's body was already exhausted. He fainted from losing a lot of blood.

"Hey, how is this? I think we should immediately ask for the help of police and ambulances" Rhea said.

"I want it too, but how to buy we are still on strike. There is no signal either. We can't reach anyone" Railo replied.

"Ah shit! We have to push this car until we find the nearest housing, anyway? This woman's pulse is getting weaker" Rhea said.

"I saw a light beam from afar. Let's go out and ask for his help" Railo said.

They both got out of the car. Under the heavy rain, they waved to ask for help from passing cars. Luckily, a coal truck appeared from behind the corner and stopped the car right near their car.

"What's going on?" the driver asked, screaming.

"There was someone injured in the car. We had to take him to the hospital, but our car broke down" Railo said.

"All right, come on. I'll take you to the nearest hospital, but I can't help you with your car" the truck driver said amid the rain.

"No problem, the important thing is that he survived" Railo said, and then he was affectionate with the truck driver.

Drrrtt! Drrrtt!

Drrrtt! Drrrtt! The electronic thing again rang and the sound was deafening.

"Uh, shit! Disturbing my sleep only," Ellard cursed while grabbing the HP.

"I'm sorry, Ma. I can't pick up the phone right now. I'll call you back." Ellard sent a message to her mother-in-law.

"Ellard, why didn't you answer my mom's phone? Are you with Anella right now? Mama hasn't been able to reach him since last night." Lady Eleanor's voice sounded big and stingy.

"I'm at the airport waiting for the plane boarding, Ma. Get out of town" Ellard replied again.

"About Anella, in fact, in recent months she has become very sensitive because she cannot get pregnant. He gets angry more often and makes us fight."

"She didn't think she could get pregnant because of me. All this time I did not tell Mama, because I was worried that it would make Mama anxious. But to be honest our relationship has deteriorated a lot" Ellard wrote in his message.

"Is that right?" ask Lady Eleanor.

"Yes, Ma. Yesterday when I was working out of town, Anella sent me a message, and then there was no news until now. The point is he wants to part with me and go abroad" Ellard replied.

"Has she not contacted Mama until now? write Ellard again.

"If she had told you, Mama wouldn't have panicked like this" bales Madam Eleanor stammered in tears.

...***...

"Mama-mama!"

Elard's eyes almost popped out, seeing someone he knew very well at the door of his apartment, along with several policemen. It seemed like the woman was deliberately waiting for him to come out from inside his room. It had only been ten minutes since they had exchanged messages.

"Ellard, where's Anella?" ask Anella's mother with a riled face. "Who is there?"

"Why is Mama here? " ask Ellard. "I live alone here" he continued.

"Answer questions Mama! Where is Anella? She told Mama to come here if she disappeared suddenly and couldn't pick up the phone" Ms Eleanor said.

"What's? Then does Anella already know about my relationship with Lilith?" ellard was surprised. "Ah, but it's now useless, because he's dead" he continued.

"Quick say! Where's my son? Just now you were lying, he said again at the airport, "said Mrs Eleanor screaming hysterically. Some other apartment room residents came out because they were disturbed.

"Damn it, I can't do anything anymore because here there are cops and too many witnesses." Ellard twisted her brain so hard to escape this situation.

"Duh, yeah. I am guilty of lying. But I didn't do anything to him. The victim is me. She couldn't get pregnant and threatened to leave me" Ellard said moments later.

"What evidence? The police can search this room!" mrs Eleanor.

"Just check. There's nothing here. I was forced to live alone in this cheap apartment, having been evicted by Anella. This is a message from him yesterday."

Ellard showed me a message on his cell phone, sent by his wife yesterday.

"But aren't you supposed to go to dinner together?" ask Lady Eleanor. His tone had started to drop, replaced by his overcast face and reddened eyes.

"It should be. I'd like to take her to dinner tonight. But he left first and didn't let me enter his house" Ellard replied.

"Mama wouldn't believe you, Ellard. Mama's going to check the CCTVs of this apartment, and track down Anella's HP," said the woman who raised Ellard as her own child.
