Chapter 42
Anya and Carla said sorry to each other. They laughed sometimes at what was happening but that did not reach their eyes. Both were struggling in a situation they did not realize. They talked for a while before Anya decided to go home. It was afternoon and the weather looked bad.
“I’m leaving, Carla. Thank you very much,”Anya said goodbye to Carla before standing up. Carla also stood up and took her out of the condo.
Anya didn’t even know what she really meant by saying the word leaving. She knew those words meant two things but she did not want to let her friend know. It was enough for her that they got along.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
When Anya finally got out, she turned to Carla and hugged her again. Carla hugged her too and patted her on the back.
“Everything will be alright, Anya. You and me. We will heal our hearts. I’m sorry,”Carla said. Anya nodded in agreement with it. She broke the hug and stared at Carla’s face. Anya smiled. She will surely miss her only friend.
Before she left, Anya waved one last time to Carla. She continued to the lobby of the building and waited for a while in the Grab taxi she had booked earlier. Even though people were looking at her, Anya did not take their critical look anymore. Who couldn’t recognize her? She was the only one that rejected the proposal of Andrius Monterio.
What Anya did to Andrius a while ago spread like wildfire. Posted on every social media site. Even as breaking news on different T. V. stations. What happened became gossip in the corner. She sighed. Everything has happened and she will never get it back.
The Grab arrived just in time and Anya went inside immediately. She was thinking deeply when someone called her phone. She answered the caller immediately.
“Hello?”Anya asked. She frowned as if the caller could see her.
“Good job, my dear! You amused me so much, Anya,”said on the other line.
Anya did not need to think too much to know who it was. It was Arruba. She was laughing which made her even more annoyed. She clenched her fist and took a deep breath. She tried to calm herself from the anger she felt for her.
“You devil! Are you happy now?!”Anya asked. She glanced at the driver of the car and was shaken when she saw him staring at her. Probably wondering.
“My bad. What you did isn’t enough. Remember Anya… Stay away. I will do what I say. So do your part. Tschüss!”Arruba hissed.
When the call was over, Anya leaned back in her seat. She squeezed her forehead slightly and looked up. He also sighed afterwards. She was tired of crying. That would not benefit her either because of her condition. If only everything was so easy there would be no problem.
“Ma’am we are here,”the Grab driver said.
Suddenly, Anya woke up in her long thoughts and looked out of the car. She immediately frowned when she saw Andrius’car opposite their gate. She immediately got out of the vehicle and approached him. Andrius was already there, probably waiting for her.
“You didn’t mean what you said a while ago, right?”Andrius immediately opened to her. Anya ignored Andrius and just kept walking towards their gate.”Okay, I’m sorry. I should’ve asked you first before proposing in public. I thought, you like surprises, Baby. And, I wanted to surprise you and give the best to you. But… Fuck!”Andrius added.
The hint of frustration was evident in Andrius’voice. He even pulled out his own hair while looking up slightly. He was still hurting. Andrius was still shocked when Anya turned her back on him. But, he was hopeful that they could still fix everything.
“Please, I’m sorry Baby!”pleading, Andrius touched Anya’s arm.
Anya stopped at the proper opening of the gate and faced Andrius. She swallowed a few more times when she saw the sadness in him. She had to persevere. She had to uphold the decision. She already made a choice.
“Don’t call me baby again. I’m not your baby, Andrius,”Anya said to Andrius while staring into his eyes. She forced herself not to blink because she knew that when she did, she would shed tears.
“What?! Are you serious? You’re joking right?”Andrius shrieked and was still shaking. His face reflected the pain caused by Anya’s words but he still hoped.
“I don’t love you. I never loved you. So leave!”Anya shouted at him as she forcibly withdrew her hand from his grip.
“No! You’re just mad. Baby, please. Don’t hurt me like this!”Andrius’eyes pleaded.
Anya shook her head. She quickly wiped the tears from her eyes. She felt sorry for Andrius but she had to leave him for the good of all. Though she was hurting too, she had to endure.
“I just used you, Andrius. I only used you as my experience. I didn’t know you were that easy to fool. I thought you’re good at playing, you should know better!”Anya said as she motioned quickly and entered their yard.
“So, is that it?!”Andrius shouted.”You will just leave me? You are so deceitful!”
Anya could feel the hurt in his own words. He was pleading and crying for chances. But things got out of hand. She needed to stand her decisions or else everything will be fuck up. So she left him. She continued walking and just a few distance away from him when her tears began to fall.
As Andrius was left outside their gate. He was shocked and hurt at Anya’s last words. He did nothing but watch the girl’s back as she walked away. The second time on the same day, Anya hurt him again. But, he could accept all the pain just to make sure that she would come back to him.
As Andrius’tears flowed, so did the rain from the sky. Perhaps, it was also mourning his plight. For thirty years of his life, Andrius played girls in his own content. He was admitted as an asshole for so long but not when he met Anya. He loved her truly. It was his first time to love a woman.
While it was raining heavily outside, Anya was in her room, crying. She looked out the window and frantically watched Andrius bathe in the rain. The surroundings were shady due to the bad weather but the bulk of him could still be seen outside their gate.
She wanted Andrius to go home. She was afraid of what might happen to him if he lasted outside while he was soaking wet. What Anya saw made her even more hurt. She could feel how much he loved him.
“Am I bad, Pappi?”Anya asked her father as she felt him embrace her.
“No. You just did what you knew was right. I feel sorry for Mr. Monterio, but I feel more sorry for your child. You and your future child. You are just victims,”Pappi answered.
Anya rested her head on herllll Pappi’s chest. Moments later they heard a car noise. When they looked at it, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Andrius’sister coming out of it.
When they left, Anya felt relief at the same time she was hurting. She thought that the same feeling could be possible. You are happy while hurting too. The heavy rain outside sympathized with her grief. Anya touched his flat stomach and caressed it.
She was always the billionaire’s secret affair.
