Trapped With The Devil

Section 28

Eros stared at the glass shard beneath his feet as he entered the room. The fragment leads to chaos that makes Eros' room look like a ship broke. Completely fucked. The entire vase of flowers and the tall mirror in front of the bed looked shattered.

The waiter said, Selena did not stop crying and rampaging so they did not dare to go into the room since this morning. Of course Eros told the servants to keep Selena tight so that the woman could not go anywhere.

Eros stomped on every shard of glass as if it was unable to pierce through his leather shoes. His gaze was flat, fixed on the drops of blood that formed a pathway towards his bathroom.

Tests.

Tests.

Tests.

“What exactly did you do to me?”

That's Selena's voice. The woman sat in the bathtub—back him. Some of her hair was wet and she was wearing that dress last night.

Eros approached and only realized that the puddle in the bathtub was slightly red.

“I asked, what exactly did you do to me?” repeat Selena with a raucous voice.

“You're hurt.”

“My heart is more injured.” Selena laughed bitterly. “You dare to say that after what you did to me?!”

“I'll be in charge.”

Selena's laughter is getting louder. “You planned all this,” the accusation without hesitation. Why do bad things always happen in your life? Did he underestimate Eros too much? Seeing that the man would be a little kind because Selena saved his life twice?

Eros squatting. Facing Selena who was looking at him hatefully. The woman's eyes are puffy. There were some wounds on his face and arms that were open.

Both of Eros' hands lifted Selena's body from the water. The woman rebelled, but her punch felt very weak.

“LEAVE ME! GET ME OUT OF THIS HELL!”

Eros paid no attention to her clothes getting wet. He took Selena out of her room. The servants standing outside looked at the woman with pityed gazes. They have eyes and ears, but they are required to be 'blind' and 'deaf'. Selena's cries and shouts really made anyone who heard her feel full. The servants had to turn their faces because they saw the appearance of Selena that was so sad.

“You devil..you really are a devil..”

Eros dropped Selena on the bed, in the room she had once occupied. Ignoring all the words of the woman, Eros called out to the servants standing outside.

“Ya, Sir?”

“Replace her clothes and call a doctor. Is dinner ready?”

The waiter nodded.

“Good. Make sure she spends all her food,” Eros replied to Selena's cold gaze.

The man then turned around. Just before it touched the doorknob, something hit the wall quickly.

The glass flakes scraped next to Eros' cheek until they spit blood. Just a little, then his head will be broken.

“WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST KILL ME?!”

Eros patience is over. He quickly turned around, then gripped Selena's neck with his big hand. “It will be easier if you shut up and obey. In the end I will still marry you, understand?!”

Selena's tears are back. “What...my fault is with you?” Tone trembling. “What is my sin on you?!”

Eros removed his grip and turned his face away. “No.”

“Andreas, what do you think about divorce?”

Andreas chokes. Almost spewed out his black coffee when Alex suddenly approached with both hands sinking under his pants pocket.

“What do you mean?!” andreas asked as he rubbed the corners of his lips. “Do not ask strange things!” he said, shaking his head, not thinking.

There is no smoke without fire. There must always be a reason why Alex asked a question. That guy never talks shit. Andreas was afraid that the question was the problem that made Alex daydream a lot today.

“Love it like a simalakama fruit. Have or let go, both will only make me die.”

“What the hell are you talking about?” Andreas scratched his nape, although in his honest heart he understood a little where the purpose of the man's words was. “You must be tired, go home early.”

“Emilia pregnant.”

Andreas blinked. “You're serious?” After getting a definite nod from Alex, the man immediately embraced the director with a proud smile. “Congratulations, you'll be Dad.”

“But..” Alex muttered while looking down. Secretly sighing softly. “I've always been careless in looking after Emilia. Instead of being happy, he often hurt.”

“I'm sure you never intended to hurt him.”

Alex raised his head and smiled faintly. Andreas becomes a figure that means a lot to him, although initially their relationship is only limited to coworkers, but the man can be a friend figure that is so warm.

Alex always hoped that the figure of Andreas who was staring at him at this time changed with the figure of Eros.

“What should I do again?” alex smiled in frustration. “I can't let go of Emilia but I also can't see Eros getting hurt and hating us.”

Andreas put down his coffee and approached towards the man while rubbing his shoulder. “Eros is your sister, you know her better than anyone. But releasing Emilia when you just want to have children, it is also not a wise decision.”

Apex only fell silent while staring at the floor for a while, before again raising his head and saying, “may I hug you?”

Andreas looked surprised but he nodded. There would be no misunderstanding since they were just the two of them in the room. He stretched out his hand and patted Alex on the back repeatedly. Trying to calm down all the anxiety lodged in the heart of the man.

Alex almost glazed over. He continued to mutter the name Eros repeatedly.

How he failed to be a brother and a husband.
