The Gray Autumn's

The Gray Autumn's
Tre's Regrettable



For a moment Benjamin was glued to the sight before him. However, before long he immediately regained his senses and rushed down the stairs. Benjamin immediately examined Fleur's fortunate state of being conscious. "What's sick, Fleur?" ask the man.


"Father, my leg ...." Fleur grimaced while pointing at his right leg which was painful. The girl intended to move her legs.


"No, Fleur!" prevent Benjamin. "Don't move much. Shut up, because the more you move your legs, the worse the injury" Benjamin said. He is still trying to remain calm in front of Autumn and Fleur.


"Please call an ambulance immediately, Ben. It's too risky to take Fleur out of the building under these circumstances" Autumn suggested. The anxiety look so obvious on his face. While Fleur only stared at him for a moment.


"Yes. You're right, Elle," Benjamin responded to Autumn's suggestion and agreed. He immediately called the emergency services and sent the location where he is now. "Ambulance is coming soon, and you'll be dealt with soon. Calm yourself, Fleur," said the thirty-five-year-old again in a calm demeanor.


A moment later, Benjamin glanced at Autumn who was then looking pale. He was very worried about the situation that befell Fleur. Benjamin doesn't talk much. The man only touched the back of Autumn's hand which was still a buffer of Fleur's body. However, Autumn understood with that small touch. He could understand the meaning of Benjamin even in the absence of beautiful words.


After a few moments of waiting, the ambulance finally arrived. The presence of the medical officer's car made people in the building area to wonder. They also watched as Fleur was brought into the car. Autumn accompanied the daughter of her beloved lover in an ambulance to the hospital. Benjamin followed with his car.


Not long after, they arrived at the nearest hospital. The medics immediately brought and handled Fleur in the action room. They had to ascertain the injuries and other injuries the little girl had sustained.


"It's okay, Fleur. You'll be fine" comfort Autumn with confidence. He escorted Fleur to the front of the action room. However, the girl was not allowed to enter. He is welcome to wait outside. While waiting for Benjamin to arrive, Autumn decides to contact Leon. He has to hold his ex-girlfriend accountable. Two calls, unanswered by Leon. As usual, the photographer avoided it. However, Autumn continued to contact him many times. In the end, Leon answered the call. "Why not get answered too?" autumn's tone sounded so angry.


"What do you want, Elle?" ask Leon heavily. The man seemed to be agitated as well.


"You still ask what I want? You have to take responsibility for what happened to that little girl!" firmly Autumn fiery. "Look! If something hard happens to Lord Royce's daughter, then I'll make a calculation with you!" threaten Autumn with growing assertiveness. Leon did not answer. The man was still confused. He prefers to disconnect his phone.


"Basic shit!" gerutu Autumn's. The girl snorted in annoyance. He also looks more and more angry.


"Who are you calling, Elle?" benjamin's heavy voice made Autumn's anger even more. The girl looked over and looked wrong.


"Ben? I don't think you're here yet" Autumn said rather nervously. While Benjamin continued to look at him with a curious look mixed with suspicion.


"What's going on? Why did my daughter fall down the stairs?" the copper-haired brunette man looked very serious.


Autumn did not answer immediately. The girl pulled her hair back. He chose to sit in the chair available there. While Benjamin still continued to pay close attention to him. He was sure there must be something Autumn had covered up from him.


"You don't want to talk to me honestly, Elle?" benjamin asked again with a tone and gaze that was felt so intimidating by Autumn. The gray-eyed girl turned her head, then complained softly.


"I'm sorry, Ben," he said.


"Sorry for what?" Benjamin was curious. He then sat down near Autumn in a position facing the girl who had succeeded in seizing his heart. "Say, Elle!" pinta Benjamin was quite resolute even though his voice sounded slow.


"Look, Ben. That's ...." Autumn finally explained everything to the man slowly. He hoped that Benjamin could think and also behave wisely. Autumn tells everything in detail.


"Me or Leon didn't think Fleur would come and come to us" Autumn ended her speech to Benjamin.


Benjamin did not immediately answer. The man fell silent. I don't know what he was thinking at the time. One thing is for sure, whatever it is has managed to make the heart of Autumn beat much faster than usual.


"Say something, Ben," said Autumn.


Bemjamin turned his head and stared deep into the gray eyes of Autumn. The sharp glare felt overwhelming and made Autumn feel a little afraid. Autumn immediately turned her face away. He didn't like it when Benjamin looked at him that way.


"You're mad at me? You want to blame me?" autumn looks worried.


Benjamin muttered softly. "So, that guy is your ex-boyfriend?" benjamin asked suddenly about Leon. Autumn responded with a nod, though she seemed hesitant.


"Why does that guy keep following you, Elle?" search Benjamin again.


"It was an accidental encounter," Autumn replied honestly. "I don't know if Leon's at the party. Everything just happens, Ben," Autumn explained. I hope Benjamin doesn't think about himself.


The gray-eyed man nodded slowly. "I'm so mature to be able to understand such a thing, Elle. You don't have to worry. I just hope nothing serious happens to Fleur. However he was still too small," Benjamin took a slow breath. Simultaneously, a doctor who was treating Fleur came out of the action room. He immediately met Benjamin and Autumn who were immediately standing up to greet the middle-aged man.


"How's my daughter, Doctor?" Benjamin immediately asked Fleur's condition.


"Your daughter has a broken leg, Mr. Royce. Luckily, the condition of the fracture was not too severe. We will only do local anesthesia and restore the position of the bone" the doctor explained calmly.


"Will this injury affect my daughter's physique for a long period of time?" ask Benjamin again. Anxious rails began to overwhelm him at that moment. No matter how calm a Benjamin is, he still feels worried about the situation of the princess alone.


"Foot injuries that occur in your daughter include getting prompt and proper handling. It won't be too significant, as long as your daughter doesn't do any strenuous activity, even though she's recovering" the doctor explained, making Benjamin look a little riled up.


"My daughter loves ballet. He's been running it since he was four. Will it affect him too?" benjamin asked again with a worried look. He hopes that the doctor's answer does not match what is in his mind. But it turns out just the opposite. The doctor gave an astounding answer and made Benjamin and Autumn only able to breathe heavily.


"I recommend that your daughter should avoid ballet, because ballet dancing is in great need of physical condition, especially in the legs.


I was afraid that if it remained forced, it would cause bad side effects in the future," explained the doctor again, making Benjamin bowed lethargic with a sigh full of regret.
