The Secret

Seven

The sound of sighs mixed with affectionate caress was clearly heard from the hotel room. Every kiss from Shelly's tiny lips, tasted like intoxicating wine that lulled Adrian and made him forget his promise.

     Whereas earlier he met to cut ties with that beautiful young woman who always looks sensual. However, Shelly instead begged them not to separate. That girl's tears made Adrian weak. When he agrees to stay in their relationship, the beautiful face that was originally sad turns into a happy one. It didn't take long for the two to make love each other and continue in the hotel room.

     That girl's gentle touch made Adrian forget at all the promise he made to Kanaya.

***

     Kanaya drove her car to the office. A happy smile on a beautiful face. She is sure that Adrian will keep his promise for the sake of their family and for Kayla's sake. The love for that man has never diminished ever now and she is sure that Adrian also feels the same way.

The ringing of the cellphone made her stop the car for a moment on the side of the road.

    "What? Hospital?" She exclaimed in surprise. Without wasting any more time, she immediately turned towards to the hospital where Sabrina get treated.

***

      Sabrina sat in silent. She didn't know what had happened to her. How do her get to the hospital? Also why didn't the gangsters kill her? According to the nurse, a young man took her to there.

     "Looks like he was injured too, but he said it wasn't his blood, after that, he just left and didn't come back until now."

     The young nurse ended the story, making Sabrina even more curious about the identity of her saviour.

     The door in her room opened from outside and Kanaya rushed in. Anxiety was clearly visible on that woman's face.

     "What happened? Are you all right?" She asked in panic as she stared intently at Sabrina who still sat leaning on the bed.

     Sabrina nodded

"I'm fine. Luckily there was someone want to help me. Otherwise, I probably haven't survived."

    "Who is helped you?"

    "I don't know too. He left before I woke up and hasn't come back yet. I think i can't wait for him anymore, he may not come back. I have to get back to the office soon. I'm not letting go of the people who did this to me."

     Kanaya laughed at Sabrina's words. That's her junior colleague was always easily provoked by emotions. If anyone was looking for trouble, that young girl would definitely seek revenge.

    "Don't thinking about that, this time let me look for those people. You just stay in here and make sure you're okay!"

    "How can that be? Those people have made me hurt and in pain like this. I won't stay still until I make them regret that they dared to hurt me!"

     Luca opened his eyes and was stunned to find himself in bed.

     'Reina must have done something to me,' he grumbled as he hurried wake up and go out from the his bedroom.

     "Are you awake? Here's to eat!" Reina exclaimed while arranging the food on the table.

     "I don't like what you're doing. Reina, you can't do that to me like before. I am not your patient or prisoner.."

      "If I don't stop you, you'll  bound to get into trouble again. I still don't know what you did last night. Came home with all the blood in you."

       Luke shook his head.

"I have to go now to know the person's that I save last night."

      Reina shook her head firmly.

Luke took a deep breath. Trying to be patient with the attitude of his sister who is sometimes too paranoid.

"The person I'm helping is in the hospital. At least I should see her and make sure that she's okay."

      "She must be fine. Her family must have taken care of her. That person is no longer your responsibility."

      Luke rose to his feet. Food still left on the plate.

"I'm leaving now! It's up to you what you say! But don't try to get in my way again or you'll suffer the consequences! You know exactly what will happen if I get angry!"

     The threat no doubt scared Reina. Luca was a good person, but he also did not hesitate to be cruel, if anyone interfered with his plans. That kind of evil hidden behind his handsome face and innocent smile.

***

    In the hospital, Sabrina is already packing her things. Shee didn't want to stay in that place any longer.

    "You haven't fully recovered yet," said Kanaya, pointing at that girl's arm which was still wrapped in bandages. The wound was caused by her fall down, so that she was make hit with the asphalt.

    Sabrina shook her head.

"A small wound like this won't affect me. Let's go now!"

    Kanaya took a deep breath and nodded. Her partner was very mad now. She can't wait to get back at those who make trouble on her.

***

    Luke comes to the hospital and finds Sabrina gone.

    'This is all because of Reina!' grumbled the man angrily. He then rushed home.

    "So you helped that detective girl? Don't you also know the consequences if she finds out all about us?" said Reina. Luca was just stay silent.

    "Well, of course you know, that's why you avoided her at the convenience store, but

now suddenly you change your mind and want to meet her," continued that young girl again while crossing her arms and staring intently.

"Why? Is it because she's pretty so you feel interested?"

    Luke took a deep breath, then looked back at his sister.

"You don't understand. I just want to use her to find out about the killing case. I want to know who is the person which also has a grudge like us."

   "Your approach is too risky. If the detective girl is suspicious, then...."

   "Nothing will happen. I'll act carefully, so she doesn't know anything about our secret," Luke interrupted quickly.

    Reina was silent for a moment, then finally nodded in agreement.

"Okay, but remember to always be careful. And don't too close to her, let alone fall in love with her." Luke just nodded in agreement.
