THE FORTUNATES

HOW ARE YOU FEELING, KEN?

    Kendrick smiled his smile listening to Beatrice's words, he alternately patted – pat on the back of Beatrice's arm. Beatrice's head was still comfortably leaning against her shoulder, as Kendrick's heart rippled as he looked at the back of Beatrice's head.

    “ Thank you Beatrice, I am a little relieved. “ Kendrick said with a smile still left at the end of her lips.

    Beatrice immediately pulled her body, releasing her arms from Kendrick's shoulder. At first glance he looked at the handsome man with a sad face, he did not imagine how slumped Kendrick at that time.

    “ Must have been very heavy your – days so far huh Ken? “ ask Beatrice again.

    “ Yes it used to be heavy Beatrice, I almost committed suicide out of desperation. I didn't find anyone I could trust, I was afraid of being betrayed, I was afraid of being taken advantage of. “ Kendrick rolls up the end of her sweater sleeve.

    “ What? You almost killed yourself? “ Beatrice stunned to hear Kendrick say just now.

    “ Hmm, I almost cut my veins with a knife. But it's lucky that Hera came to this house at the right time. I only cried – so that night when Hera came to hug me. “ back Kendrick glazed - glass remembered that day.

    “ Quickly, Brother Hera looks so loving to you Ken. “ Beatrice said while propping her chin with one hand.

    “ Hmm she loves me so much Be, even she is the happiest when I tell her that I have you. “ Kendrick continued.

    “ Then, your parents Ken? Regina's parents? How do they know? Then why don't you just tell the public that he did this evil thing to you, Ken? “ Beatrice returns fiery – fire, she feels no accept anyone who could hurt people as good as Kendrick.

    “ They don't know what – Be, Dad and Mom also Travis don't know if I almost committed suicide. I just told them that I and Regina were over, they would hurt Beatrice even more if they found out why I parted with her. “ Kendrick said with a glare.

    “ I also do not have the heart to open everything, I myself will look very stupid to be fooled easily by others. However he was once a part of my life, with me through my – days Be, he once made my world feel warm. “ Kendrick continued wisely.

    “ Then the fucking manager? Do you also remain silent? “ the further Beatrice tried to dig things out of Kendrick.

    “ Hahaha, you are not suitable to curse Beatrice. Save the word – that dirty word, very inappropriate said from your mouth. “ Kendrick crisp laughs when hearing Beatrice cursing Lucky with the word 'fucking’ manager .

    “ He is very annoying, just hear me very furious Ken. “ said Beatrice defended herself.

    “ Yes in the end he himself submitted his resignation to Travis, and I immediately agreed to it when Travis asked me. At that time Clovis knew a little about my story with Regina, I told him a little bit when he replaced Lucky. At first I just gave a warning so that he does not act stupid like Lucky, but finally I shared my wounds on him. “ Kendrick said again.

    “ Then, how do you feel now Ken? You still meet often and even you are paired with her for your movie project this time. Is your heart good – fine? “ ask Beatrice later. In the depths of Beatrice's heart, she wished Kendrick had no feelings for Regina, hoping to win over Kendrick.

    “ Now? Surely I've forgiven Regina, only I can't forget what she did to me Be. I will keep in mind that he hurt me, but on the other hand I can't hate Beatrice. “ Kendrick replied.

    “ Hahaha, would you like me to snap your head Be? From now on interrogate me. “ Kendrick poked his arm around Beatrice's neck and scrambled the woman's hair in a fit of anxiety.

    “ Kendrick, enough Ken enough, your hands hurt my neck. “ cried Beatrice trying to escape from Kendrick's confinement so strong.

    “ Huff, you are more chatty than a reporter apparently yes. “ Kendrick sighed while releasing her hand from Beatrice's neck. Then Beatrice swung her lips while fixing her messy hair.

    “ Then, if there are women who like you how is Ken? What if a woman says she loves you? “ ask Beatrice doubtful – hesitate.

    While Kendrick leaned toward Beatrice, Beatrice jerked and rewinded to the end of the couch. Kendrick's hands were glued to the right and left of Beatrice's waist, as if Kendrick had purposely caught her.

    “ Would be happy if she's a beautiful woman Be. As well as one more, if her body is sexy like Scarlett Johansson. “ whispered Kendrick while staring straight at the blushing face of Beatrice.

    “ Be, why is your face red once. “ continued Kendrick without taking his eyes off the beautiful face of Beatrice.

    Beatrice was further embarrassed by the word – said Kendrick just now, her face was getting reddish until it spread to the ears. His heart was beating rapidly, he had difficulty regulating his breathing. Instantly he pushed Kendrick straight, and Kendrick easily collapsed onto the couch. The woman immediately got up from her position and ran small towards the door. Kendrick just chuckled at Beatrice's behavior.

    “ You are so annoying Ken! “ cried Beatrice as she grabbed the doorknob, then she slammed it hard from outside.

    Beatrice ran into the kitchen, grabbed a glass from the kitchen cabinet drawer and then took water from the smart refrigerator that was equipped with an ice maker and dispenser. He quickly sipped a full glass of cold water that he had just taken.

    “ What's wrong Mistress? “ asked Auntie Rasi when she saw Beatrice acting strangely. Beatrice simply waved her hand as she continued to gulp down her drink. Aunt Rasi and Aunt Inah looked at each other and saw her hostess acting like this.

    “ Stop, do not drink too much cold water. “Kendrick snatched the glass from Beatrice's hand and placed it on the kitchen table.

    “ See, is it still red? “ anxious Kendrick held the tiny face of Beatrice with both hands, then brought her face closer until their noses almost touched.

    “ Shit! Don't follow me! “ cried Beatrice as she shook Kendrick's hands and sauntered into the living room, the man just following her while laughing at the nervous Beatrice he made.

    Aunt Rasi and Aunt Inah smiled – smiles at the behavior of the newly married couple, they saw a happy aura emanating from Kendrick's face.

     “ Tuan looks more cheerful and this house is more alive it feels. “ whispered Aunty Inah to Auntie Rasi while continuing to clean the vegetables that will be fermented, then they both chuckle at the same time.
