It was almost eleven at night. Chin Hwa had just arrived home. He turned his head to the left and to the right, stretching his stiff neck muscles. He slammed himself onto the matrass. He spread his hands like a flying bird. He let his feet dangle on the edge of the bed. “Anin!” His memory about Qeiza made him sit up back. He took his cell phone out of the pocket. With his wide smile, he called her number. The call wasn’t connecting. Every time he redialled, he could only hear the operator’s voice. It’s not usual for Qeiza to ignore his call. All of sudden Chin Hwa felt restless. He took off his sweaty clothes and changed them. Because the weather was getting colder, he wore a thicker jacket. Meanwhile, in the basement, Qeiza was still struggling to untie the rope on her hands. Her eyes occasionally watched two of Aleta’s men. They were getting closer. “Step away!” The round-faced man chased away Adnan who was standing there, putting up his body to protect Qeiza. Instead of obeyi
The roar of the ambulance siren broke the quietness of the night. The ambulance ran in high speed. It raced with the time to save Chin Hwa’s life. Qeiza didn’t let go of Chin Hwa’s hand for a second. He was still unconscious. In silence, Qeiza kept praying, hoping her fiancé would be alright. No matter if their wedding had to be postponed. The most important thing was that Chin Hwa was safe. Ansel arrived at the spot when all the tense had ended. Just some policemen were still there, putting up the police line. “Shit! I’m always late.” Ansel hit the empty space. He had warned his ex-wife about the danger that harmed her life. Nevertheless, Qeiza seemed not to take it seriously. He also had sent someone to watch her. Unluckily, he still lost fast. Ansel went back to his car. “Follow the ambulance!” He ordered the taxi driver he rented. The taxi went away. “Faster!” Ansel was impatient. He was really worried about Qeiza. Ansel reached into his pocket. He pulled his phone out of th
“Oppa ….” Qeiza whispered while opening her eyes. She was upset when she could not find Dae Hyun by her side. “You’re awake, dear,” said Alina. “Thank goodness!” “Aunty, why are you here?” As long as she remembered, before she lost her consciousness, she was with Dae Hyun. “It’s not the point, dear,” said Alina. “How are you feeling?” Qeiza felt all over her body sore. Her bones were like crushed, hard to move. “Thank goodness you’re awake, Qei,” said Ansel. He had just come into the room. Qeiza was getting surprised. Why her ex-husband and ex-mother-in-law accompanied her. Where was Dae Hyun? Ansel moved aside when the doctor and nurse wanted to check Qeiza. He gave them the space to do their jobs. “You just need to take a rest, Miss,” said the doctor. “Within two days, you may go home.” “But, Doc—” “It’s for your sake, Qei,” interrupted Ansel. “Don’t argue!” The doctor and the nurse left the room after writing a prescription for Qeiza. Qeiza tried to sit up. She didn’t wa
If life gives you a misery, it will also prepare a pleasant surprise for you. Just keep patient till the time comes. *** “Can’t you drive faster?” Ansel mumbled on the back seat. Xander glanced at Ansel’s ugly face through the rear-view mirror. “This is a maximum speed that government recommends.” Ansel grumbled unclearly. It made Xander show his mocking smile while averting the focus of his attention back to the street. “Do you know where Chin Hwa’s uncle’s house?” asked Xander. “It’s too late to find it out now,” said Ansel. “Just go straight to the moslem cemetery. I’m sure he’s going to be buried there.” Xander drove his car to the nearest moslem cemetery from the business center district. When they arrived there, most of the mourners had left. Ansel strode entering the cemetery. His eyes moved wildly to find Qeiza among the crowds of the people who were leaving that place. He was not aware that Qeiza was walking out of the right side of the cemetery gate. They crossed pat
People will forget a thousand of your kindness just because of one mistake you do. Thus, keep doing good. *** Dae Hyun stood up on the top of the stairs, looking downstairs. He was keeping his eyes on Qeiza and the spouse talking in the living room. He wanted to listen to their conversation, but he was too far away. He just could guess from the facial expressions of those two guests. They looked disappointed. After they went away, Dae Hyun came closer to Qeiza. “So, you refused their request?” asked Dae Hyun. He sat on the opposite of Qeiza. Qeiza nodded. “But, I’ll escort them to the airport,” she said. “You don’t mind, do you?” “When’s?” “Tonight.” “Then, I’ll go with you.” “No need, Oppa,” said Qeiza. “I’ll be alright.” “This is Paris, Ae, It’s not too safe for women.” Dae Hyun stood up. “If you don’t allow me to go with you, it’ll be better for you to cancel your intention.” Dae Hyun stared seriously at Qeiza. He was really not willing to let her go to the airport with n
“Where did you get it?” Qeiza observed the thing on Dae Hyun’s palm. Her eyes widened when she recognized it. She stretched out her hand to take it. “I picked it up on the hospital floor.” Dae Hyun immediately clenched his fingers. He folded his arm so the thing kept staying in his hand. “That’s my brooch, Oppa!” Qeiza held out her hand. Hoping Dae Hyun would hand it willingly. Dae Hyun stretched out his fingers again. “Do you know what this is?” He turned the brooch ups and down, observing it carefully. Qeiza grabbed the brooch from Dae Hyun’s hand. She also examined it with a frowning forehead. “Just a usual brooch,” she said. “Where did you buy it?” Qeiza stared deeply at Dae Hyun. She felt weird with her adopted brother’s query. “That’s a present from Chin … Hwa.” Her throat felt choked when she mentioned Chin Hwa’s name. Her face turned into gloomy. Dae Hyun took a deep breath. He caressed the top of Qeiza’s head. “He had rested in peace.” “No wonder he could find you
Standing by the fence to the balcony, Qeiza could see a small swimming pool followed the contour of the balcony. “Wow!” Qeiza was blown away. She had ever said that she wanted to see a swimming pool when she stood on the balcony of her bedroom. She did not think Dae Hyun would memorize that all and made it came true. A garden of cactus also pampered her eyes. “You can jump down freely from here,” teased Dae Hyun while looking down. “I think I should try to do it one day.” Qeiza also looked down. “Ouch!” Qeiza screamed. Dae Hyun tapped her head. “Why do you like tapping my head so much?” Qeiza grumbled, caressing the imprint of Dae Hyun’s tap. “You seemed to need an alarm.” Dae Hyun smiled in amusement when he looked at Qeiza’s pouting face. “It’s better for you to take a rest right now,” said Dae Hyun. “I’m going to take a bath. My body’s feeling sticky.” Qeiza waved her hands. She kicked him out to immediately leave her. He always teased her. “If you need something, just ca
“Qeiza! Don’t joke too much!” Amira scolded Qeiza. “What if Mr. and Mrs. Santoso get heart attack, huh?” “Ah, hahaha ….” Santoso laughed again. “So, it’s just kidding, right?” Mrs. Santoso just shook her head while caressing her chest. Raditya exposed a slight smile only. Qeiza sighed and said in a low voice, “It’s up to you if you don’t buy it." “Qei!” Abbas yelled at her. He gave her a deadly stare. Qeiza stared at Raditya seriously. “Don’t you say I never told that.” Qeiza rose. She bowed at Mr. and Mrs. Santoso. “Please forgive me, Uncle, Aunty … I can’t stay here any longer,” she excused. Abbas also stood up. He pressed Qeiza’s shoulders, forcing her to sit back. “What are you doing, Qei? The dinner has just started. It’s impolite to just leave.” Abbas suppressed his voice. He tried to cover the anger boiling in his chest. Taking advantage of Qeiza was not actually as easy as what he thought. “I’m sorry, Uncle! I have another agreement,” Qeiza denied. She raised her hand,
