Chapter 45



Regina's body was wet, she hugged both knees under the water that came out of the shower. It's been two hours Regina's been sitting in the bathroom. Lamenting the insults Kevin gave.


"Am I so bad?"


"Didn't he say he loved me?"


"What's my fault ?"


"Why is he like this?"


"I've started to open my heart, slowly I'm trying to love her, why she's just making me an outlet."


Regina repeatedly said that. It hurts to remember Kevin gave her the contraceptive pill every night. Stupid ! Regina felt so stupid, how could she not know if the pills she was taking were not vitamins like what Kevin said.


Regina's body was limp, her head felt very heavy. His sight was blurred. He shivered in the cold. Instead of getting up and changing her clothes, Regina just sat hugging her knees under the shower.

"Is Kevin not home yet?" Aldo stood at the door of Kevin's house. Many times he pressed the bell but absolutely nothing opened. Aldo called Kevin.


"She must have asked about Regina, it's better not to just pick up." Kevin changed the silent mode on his phone. He continued his sleep again.


Aldo had also contacted Regina's number, Aldo had called ten times but the same, there was no reply from Regina.


Aldo peeked through the garage door gap, only Regina's car was there.


"Liana, look for Regina's whereabouts." Aldo called his secretary. Soon Liana has sent a message that Regina is inside the house because GPS signals indicate that Regina is indeed at home. Liana is indeed very reliable in every circumstance.


Aldo's heart was worried, without a second thought he broke the door. One, two, three and four, Aldo broke the door.


"Sister ??"


"Sister Regina??" Shouted Aldo, he stepped up the stairs towards Regina's room. Aldo came in after he knocked but there was no word from the owner. Aldo heard the sound of water, but when Aldo turned his head he was confused because the bathroom door was not closed.


"Is Regina's sister in the shower? but why isn't the door closed?" A little hesitant, Aldo stepped closer to the bathroom.


"Sister.." Call Aldo.


"Sister.."


Aldo's right hand pushed the door slowly. There was no shouting or anything, Aldo pushed the door open.


"Sister !" Shouted Aldo, his eyes round looking at Regina lying under the water. Without a second thought Aldo lifted the wet body, his lips were endlessly calling his brother-in-law to wake up. Aldo came down the stairs with great difficulty. He put Regina in the back seat of his car.


Aldo immediately drove his car to the hospital.


"Why did Regina get there like that? then where's Kevin's brother." Aldo spoke to himself.


As soon as he arrived at the hospital, Aldo again carried Regina's body. It just so happened that Rio was on duty that morning. With a little running Rio approached Aldo.


"Al, what's going on? what happened to Regina?" Ask.


"I don't know, you better check on him now." Aldo. Aldo waited outside, while Rio and the nurse were checking on Regina.


Rio came out, his anxious face clearly visible in Aldo's eyes. Aldo's approaching, though,


"How is he doing?" Ask Aldo.


"He has a high fever. The nurse changed her clothes. What happened to Regina? why did her clothes get so wet like that, did she drown?" Ask doctor Rio.


"No, I found Regina's sister in the bathroom. She's stuck under a still-lit shower." Answer Aldo.


"Have you called Kevin?"


"It was, but my call was not received at all. I've been calling her since this morning."Aldo.


"She'll be moved to the nursery soon." Rio said. Aldo nodded.

The day was getting noon, Aldo was still faithfully waiting for his brother-in-law who had not woke up. Rio said it was because of the effect of the medicine he injected on Regina's body. He still tried to contact Kevin, send messages, call, but still the same, no reply from Kevin.


Aldo was about to contact his father, but he remembered that his mother did not like Regina. He also cancelled his intention. Aldo also could not contact Regina's parents because he did not know their mobile number.


The sound of Aldo's cell phone ringing was heard, he immediately took the phone that he initially put on the table, hoping Kevin was the one who called.


"Sister Regina?" Aldo looked at the phone screen and then turned to look at Regina.


"Sister Regina's here, then who called me?" Confused Aldo. It took a little while for Aldo to shift the green dial icon.


"Hehh ! you picked up my phone a long time ago !" The woman across.


"Who are you ?" Aldo could not reply to the girl's words, he remembered that she was in the hospital. Honestly, he also wanted to curse the girl.


"Where's Regina?" Back, the girl spoke in an annoying tone to Aldo.


"Who are you? why are you calling on Regina's cell phone. Are you a thief?" Ask Aldo.


"Why are you so fucking huh !" The other girl is Jessica.


"How dare you curse me ! Whoareyou? I'll kill you !" Aldo walked out of the room, his hands clenching furiously.


"I'm Jessica, you want to kill me? with what ? with your love ? very funny !" Jessica said.


"Be quiet ! come here, I'll kill you !" Seru Aldo's.


"Here you go, I don't wanna argue right now." Jessica said.


"Don't want to argue, you've also been arguing. Crazy girl !" Let Aldo be in his heart.


"Hey sir, tell me where Regina is? I'm at his house now. The door opened, then I went up to the room and saw that there were a lot of calls from you on his phone." Jessica said again.


"I didn't ask you where." Ketus Aldo's.


Jessica closed her eyes as she clenched her hands into the air feeling furious at Aldo.


"All right, we'll have another debate. Tell me quickly."


"Sister Regina's in the hospital right now." Aldo.


"What !!"


"Don't yell ! I'm not deaf." Seru Aldo's.


Aldo told Jessica the name of the hospital where Regina was treated. Jessica took her car to the hospital. Jessica went to Regina's ward immediately because Aldo had told her before she ended her call.


Chequelek


Aldo turned his head and threw his face away as soon as he saw Jessica coming.


"Sucks !!" Bait Jessica. Without greeting Aldo, Jessica immediately approached Regina.


"Regina, what's going on?" Jessica touched Regina's cold hands.


"Have known you were unconscious, still in question !" Aldo muttered but could still be heard by Jessica.


Jessica just glanced cynically at Aldo.


"What happened to him?" Ask Jessica to Aldo.


"Master sucks ! I'm asking you." Jessica said again.


"I ?" Aldo pointed to himself.


"Who else if not you ? already knew Regina didn't realize where she might be able to answer me."


"Hey that's my dialogue !" Aldo cried softly, he held his voice so as not to disturb Regina.


"Whatever !" Said Jessica.


Aldo explains what happened to Regina to Jessica, and tells her to contact Regina's parents because Kevin still can't be contacted.


"How dare you tell me, without you telling me to call them, too." Grunts Jessica.


"You're a fool, the proof is that you haven't contacted them until now. You look up at my handsome face." Said Aldo with a flat expression.


"cih !!"


Jessica calls Surya's papi, informing him that Regina has been admitted to the hospital. After waiting for a while, Regina blinked her eyes slowly, adjusting the light that entered her sense of sight.


"Re, you're up.." Said Jessica. Aldo moved closer to Regina.


"Are you awake?" Aldo.


"Are your eyes blind ? I saw him open his eyes still asking." Said Jessica who got a sharp look from Aldo. No longer afraid, Jessica also returned Aldo's sharp gaze.


"Kevin..." Lirih Regina's.


"Calm down, brother, I've called Kevin's brother. He'll be here soon." Aldo. Aldo reached into his pants pocket to pick up his phone, sending Kevin a message that Regina was conscious and looking for him.


Papi Surya and Mami Ira come, Ira's mother embraces Regina. Kissing the princess' cheek.


"Mommy.." Lirih Regina's.


"Where's your husband?" Ask papi Surya.


"Sister Kevin.."


"Kevin's out of town, Pi." Tukas Regina's. Aldo looked at Regina in wonder, it was clear that his brother-in-law knew that Kevin was not out of town, but why did he say that.


Aldo and Jessica, excuse us, leave Regina to be more free with her parents.


"I'm leaving, I want to have coffee first." Aldo.


"Why are you saying goodbye to me?" Ask Jessica.


"No, I'm afraid you feel like I don't think of you. That's why I say goodbye." Aldo.


"I don't care, you flew to Antarctica I don't care either !"


"Later you miss me." Aldo brushed his wry smile at Jessica.


"Cihhh !!"


"Go there !" Banish Jessica.


"Aren't you going with me?" Ask Aldo.


"Where ?"


"To the guarantee !" Seru Aldo's.


Jessica clucked in annoyance. Clenching his teeth with a growl.


"I knew I wanted to get coffee, I still asked." Aldo.


"Somebody's throwing coffee away until you're gonna look for it." Jessica Excited.


"God ! this girl always answers me. I'd love to stuff his mouth with a mermaid !" Inner upset Aldo.


"What ! you cursed me in your heart !" Jessica Excited.


"Yes, you understand me very well apparently." Aldo ruffled Jessica's hair and left her.


"Basic sucks !" Grumpy Jessica.


"Eh but who am I with here. I better go with him for coffee." Jessica ran over to Aldo.


"Wait !" Shouted Jessica, Aldo who had memorized the voice also continued to walk regardless of Jessica.


Jessica's getting up to speed, lucky she's wearing a flat shoes today. He pulled Aldo's hand after he grabbed it and made the annoying guy stop for him.


"Are you intentionally hah !" Jessica tried to control her breathing.


"What?" Aldo asked as if he knew nothing.


"I've called you, why are you speeding up your pace." Jessica still holds Aldo's hand.


"When did you call me? I didn't hear it."


"He likes to look for me. Just watch out for you, I'll repay you." Inner pissed Jessica.


"Here you go, I'm coming with you." Jessica gave up, she was already quite tired of running after Kevin.


"Where?" Ask Kevin with his stupid face according to Jessica.


"To the guarantee !" Jessica Excited.


Aldo laughs sarcastically.


"You really want me to marry him apparently. All right, let's go to the pelaminan. Let me torture you." Aldo.


"Hush up ! I'm so tired. Don't ask me to argue now." Jessica said.


"All right, we'll have coffee." The second one walked towards the parking lot.


"Are you afraid I'm leaving you?" Ask Aldo without stopping his steps.


"You mean?" Confused Jessica.


"You're afraid I'm leaving you until you don't want to let go of my hand." Said Aldo who kept looking straight ahead.


Jessica rounded her eyes and lips perfectly while looking at the grip of her hand on Aldo's arm.


"You're stealing a chance in narrowness ! you are a brash !" Jessica said, he threw Aldo's hand.


"C**dn." Dengus Aldo's.
