The Married With The Devil

A Meaning

Early in the morning, even before the alarm on his phone went off, Bianca was already looking neat. He deliberately woke up quickly because he did not want to meet let alone meet face to face with Alan. The toast that became his breakfast was devoured quickly.

“Where are you going?” Bianca, who was just about to leave, stopped her steps when she heard Alan's voice coming from the direction of the second floor.

“Tell Jimmy, from now on, I'll leave alone.” Bianca said without turning around. Before long, he heard the sound of rushing feet. And sure if the man went down the stairs quickly to get to her.

“What exactly is it with you?” Alan said he did not understand while pulling Bianca's body to turn to look at him. His black iris looked at the woman sharply. And his annoyance grew when Bianca threw away her face.

“I have to go.” Bianca flat. Really, he was really lazy looking at Alan's face.

“Bianca!” Alan shouted furiously as he gripped the woman's left arm. Both jaws are hardened. But Alan still tried to hold himself back so as not to get out of control and even damage their morning.

“Didn't I tell you not to touch me?!” Bianca pointed out as she jerked Alan's hand that held her. Both of his eyes looked at the man coldly. His chest was again filled with a sense of tightness.

“You're still having issues at that dinner?” Alan asked in disbelief as he looked at Bianca fixedly. The woman clearly heard him reject the offer from Robin. He even tried to explain it. But Bianca seemed reluctant to listen.

Bianca suddenly closed her eyes at a glance while sighing deeply. He could only smile when he heard the man's words.

“I still have problems with it. You don't like it?” Bianca said exasperatedly while looking at Alan she did not like.

“Me and Kate have nothing to do. What happened last night was just a formality.” Alan said with a hunting breath. His face was already reddened because it was foaming hard to withstand the overflow of his emotions.

“That even makes you ignore and forget me?!” Bianca was no longer able to contain her frustration. He also does not care if Sofie who is still in the kitchen hears their quarrel. Bianca was tired if she had to always give up and hold it alone.

Alan let out a rough sigh while clenching his hand. He really doesn't understand what Bianca really wants.

“Bianca, what do you really want? What happened at that time was not a matter to be exaggerated. You want me to apologize? Okay. I'm sorry.” Alan said frustrated while staring at Bianca intensely. He no longer knows what to do. So far, their relationship has been fine and now, he and Bianca are fussing over the trivial.

“I don't need an insincere apology from you.” Bianca said with a cynical smile.

“Then what ka—”

“Alan, what exactly do I mean to you?” Bianca asked softly as she looked at Alan sadly.

“Bianca, what is mak—”

“As an item you bought? As a puppet that you can play as you please? Or as an impingement of your lust?” Bianca said as she looked at Alan. There was not a single hint of fear emanating from his eyes. Instead, he was very curious as to what answer the man would give him.

Alan was silent. He confused—more precisely, do not know what to answer. Bianca's question was too sudden.

“Some women, are happier when their partner proves their love with action, not just sweet words. And I'm one of them.” After saying that, Bianca immediately turned around and walked away. Leaving Alan alone who was still at home silent while staring at his departure.

Tongue's cow. Bianca's questions really do make her tick dead. What does that woman mean to him? Alan never thought about it. He just felt he needed Bianca to always be by his side. Accompany and receive it under any circumstances. Never thinking too far.

Lily stared at the astonished Bianca who seemed to be casually enjoying a piece of pear in her hand. Earlier this morning, he found Bianca leaving for school on a bus. And when he asked, Bianca just put her shoulder to it no matter what.

“You fought again?” Lily asked as she sipped her mango juice. Their lunch time is almost over.

“No. There's just a little problem.” Reply Bianca indifferently.

“That makes you go to school on the bus?” Lily couldn't believe it.

“Lily, are you going to continue your school?” Bianca deliberately switched their conversation. Right now, if he could, he didn't want to think a single bit about Alan.

“Of course. How about you?” Lily asked as she looked at Bianca. He believes that Bianca will no longer bother about the cost of her college later. Alan would have been happy to do anything for the woman.

“Work, maybe.” Answer Bianca slowly. He could not tell Lily if after graduation, he would go straight to university. Shame if he ended up being a store employee.

“Work? Wh-wh-what for? Wouldn't Alan mind taking your tuition?” Lily said in surprise while looking at Bianca confused. At one point, Bianca and Alan had made up.

“At least, by working and having my own money, I don't have to rely on others and be able to live independently. Treated like a toy item, really unpleasant.” Bianca said with a sad smile. Slowly he got up from his seat. Then she left Lily alone. After the incident at the dinner, Bianca realized, there is no guarantee that she and Alan will continue together. It could be, at any time, the man got bored of him and threw him away. For Alan, she was not the first woman. But for him, everything he did first was with Alan.

Alan looked back at the file Lucy had just brought him. Today, none of his work is going well. His mind kept busy looking for answers to the question Bianca had given him this morning.

“Tuan.” Jimmy looked anxiously at Alan.

“Jimmy, I'm really confused.” Alan let out a frustrated sigh while leaning his back on the chair. His head looked up with both eyes closed.

“What is going on?” Jimmy asked carefully because he did not want to add bad mood to his master. With a slow motion, Alan fixed his position while looking at Jimmy.

“Jimmy, do you like that woman?” Jimmy gasped in surprise when Alan asked in earnestness. The black iris of the man looked at him fixedly. Waiting for the answer he will give.

“Yes. I like it.”

“Then what does he mean to you?” Jimmy was stunned when he heard Alan's words. It's not usual for that guy to ask her that kind of thing.

“Au—”

“Forget it.” Cut Alan while sighing deeply. Thought's dead-end. Even to answer a trivial question from Bianca he could not. Alan admitted that he had known many women and slept with them. Without ever wanting to trouble himself to think about their meaning to him.

“Sial!” Let Alan. He's coming home late tonight. Having fun with alcohol is the best way to make her feel calm.

***

This time, Alan visited a different nightclub than he often visited. He deliberately did it because he wanted to find a new atmosphere. The choice fell on a small club with a decent room decor according to him.

Alan is small. It's always like this. Even without having to bother himself, the women who first came to him. Give themselves up voluntarily just because of a few sweet words.

“You accompany me?” Alan asked who was enthusiastically welcomed by the woman. But when the woman was about to touch him, Alan raised one hand as a rejection. He still has Bianca and letting other women touch him would make his wife unhappy.

“I Jill.” The woman introduced herself. Alan nodded without asking. He preferred to stare at his ordered drink that had just been delivered by a male servant.

The woman—Jill, still faithfully staring at Alan sticky. Tonight, he felt lucky to get a good catch. Especially if the man is willing to sleep with her. He won't think twice.

“What after this you—”

“I'm married.” Sela Alan glanced at Jill. The woman was shocked. And before long, his lips returned with a happy smile.

“Tak problems. I wouldn't mind.”

“But I'm not interested in you at all.” Alan sizzled coldly as he stared at the woman sharply. He just wanted to wet his throat with alcohol. While hoping to return home later, he can give a satisfactory answer to Bianca.

Fiona is still faithfully accompanying Jane even though the sky out there has turned dark since then. After making a glass of warm milk for the woman, Fiona seemed to patiently feed Jane using a spoon. He doesn't even realize Jimmy's been watching him for twenty minutes.

“Jane.” Call Fiona soft. He looked at the woman and came back amazed. Jane is really pretty. Initially, Fiona did feel heavy and confused about what to do. But after Jimmy tells her what to do, Fiona thinks it's not bad. He only needs to accompany and care for Jane during Jimmy's work.

“Are you tired?” Fiona asked softly. Whether conscious or not, Jane blinked her eyes when she heard the woman's question.

Fiona. He couldn't look at Jane much longer and see the woman. He always remembered Jimmy's story. The brash man who made Jane what she is today deserved to die.

“Is he asleep?” Fiona who had just intended to walk away, gasped in shock when she heard Jimmy's voice. The man walked slowly to get to her

“Ya.” Fiona answered briefly. His heart inside suddenly beat.

Jimmy immediately approached Jane and stroked the woman's hair gently. He smiled happily. Her brother's condition is fine. And Jimmy feels grateful that Fiona took care of Jane sincerely.

“I'll take you home.” Jimmy said, holding Fiona's hand. Behind her, Fiona is only able to look at Jimmy and his hands in turn. Back, his heart was beating unusually in there. Fiona also felt her face heat up. Before, he felt fine.

“Fiona.” Call Jimmy softly after they've both been out of Jane's room. His blue eyes looked at Fiona fixedly.

“What's up?” Fiona asked, glancing at Jimmy at a glance.

The man did not answer. Jimmy would rather look at Fiona's face. The woman who was before him at this moment actually rendered him helpless.

“Jimmy, what you lak—” Fiona immediately raised her hand up when she saw Jimmy's face getting closer to her. Before long, he felt the man's lips touch his palm. Nah! More precisely, the man gently dyed his palm that was raised upwards.

Fiona fell silent. His body suddenly nervous. In front of him, Jimmy smiled.

“Ayo.” Jimmy said as he drew Fiona's hand to step together. He wanted to drive the woman and make sure she was okay.

Bianca, who was in Alan's room, gasped in shock when she heard the sound of footsteps. He immediately glanced at the wall clock, eleven o'clock in the evening and the man had just returned home. Bianca doesn't want to be suspicious. Maybe the work in the office is piling up.

“Bianca.” Call Alan when he just walked into the room and found Bianca picking up a blanket. Quickly, Alan stepped closer to the woman.

“Where are you going?” Ask Alan. Bianca still flinching.

Feeling no answer, Alan immediately pulled Bianca's hand.

“Let go of me.” Desis Bianca.

“Bianca, until when do you want to be like this?” Alan doesn't know what to say to Bianca anymore. The woman still insisted on occupying him.

“Alan, I'm on mal—”

All of a sudden, Alan pulled Bianca's hand and dropped the woman's body on the bed. Undeniably, he misses Bianca. I want to touch that woman.

Patiently, Alan drowned his face on Bianca's neck. Inhaling the scent of the body of the woman he so longed for. Before long, Alan gave an old kiss on his wife's shoulder.

“Alan!” Pekik Bianca as she thrashed.

“I miss you.” Alan whispered while peeping Bianca's earlobes. But, just as Alan was about to reach her lips, Bianca smelled something strange from the man's body. Quickly, Bianca brought her face closer to Alan's body and found the scent of a woman's perfume firmly attached to the man's work clothes.

“Are you dissatisfied after having fun with another woman?” Lirih Bianca gripped the white bed sheet underneath. Alan immediately raised his body slightly to stare at Bianca.

“What do you mean?” Alan asked not to understand.

Without fear, Bianca immediately pushes Alan's body roughly. He stared at the man sharply with his lips trembling withholding tears. They had just had a fight and the man was already looking for another woman.

“I just went for a drink.” Alan replied after realizing the meaning of Bianca's words. He didn't do anything to the woman named Jill. After putting down his drink, Alan immediately stepped home from the club.

“You think I'll believe it? I've seen you once with another woman without caring about my whereabouts.” Bianca doesn't care if Alan takes it too much. Any woman will also feel pain when a man who claims to love her, instead choose to accompany other women than his own partner. He cannot demand much. Alan only acknowledged her as a lover, not as a wife.

“Bianca!” Alan growled furiously as he looked at Bianca. He can no longer remain silent. Bianca is completely overdue. He didn't do anything wrong. The incident with Kate was out of her control.

“I think you've changed, it's not at all.” Bianca muttered as she walked away. As long as they were together, only this time did he feel really angry. Also felt his relationship with Alan was strained. And wanted to get away from that guy.

“Job!” Alan cursed furiously while ruffling his hair rough. He really doesn't understand what Bianca really wants.
