"Hah".
"Hahahaha" laughter filled the spacious room.
"I fell in love with that waitress, hah, Gosh, is the world's stock of women running out that I have to like a terrorist" whether it was an insult or to bring him down, because now all Leya felt was heartache when she heard that.
Emly's hands clenched tightly, her breath quickened to hold back her anger that was already at the top of her head.
"Once again you hurt Leya, then don't consider me your sister anymore".
Brakk
Emly left there with increasingly overflowing anger, leaving Leya and Aldrich who were currently just silent because it felt very awkward.
Brughh
Leya dropped her body weight, she was almost going to prostrate herself in front of Aldrich to ask for forgiveness from Aldrich.
Leya did that not only because she lowered her self-esteem in front of Aldrich.
But the fear of being fired made Leya have to kneel like that.
"Don't fire me sir" Leya whispered with sad eyes asking for forgiveness from the man who was even very cruel to her.
The sound of footsteps made Leya and Aldrich's gaze look at the sound caused by the shoes hitting the floor.
"Sir, this is the medicine the Doctor sent" she replied putting the tray containing the medicine and bandages to treat Aldrich's wounds on the bed.
"Get out" Aldrich ordered.
A sharp gaze was focused on Leya until Leya lowered her head in fear of Aldrich's gaze that could skin Leya.
"I will forgive you, as long as you replace my bandage" Aldrich ordered.
"Yes sir".
Her hands were shaking, Leya slowly treated the wound and replaced the bandage with a new one.
Fear began to haunt Leya until Leya accidentally pressed too hard on the wound on Aldrich's body.
"Arghh are you tired of living" Aldrich growled with his hand currently floating in the air, Aldrich was about to slap Leya just because she made a mistake.
However, Aldrich changed his mind when he saw Leya who was very scared by closing her eyes.
Leya seemed to be ready to block her face that was about to be slapped.
Aldrich felt guilty because he was very light-handed to a woman, and that was not Aldrich's attitude.
Although it was true that Aldrich was cruel, he was never rude to a woman who had not done anything wrong to him.
"I'm sorry" Aldrich whispered feeling guilty.
Bang
Like there was thunder in broad daylight, Aldrich said the word sorry? Impossible? So far Aldrich had never said the word sorry, but now he said it to Leya.
What dream did Leya have last night that she could get an apology from the loud and arrogant Aldrich.
**
This afternoon the sunlight felt very hot and even made Aldrich feel hot even though he was currently in a room with air conditioning.
Krett
The sound of the door being opened slowly made Aldrich turn his gaze to the person who came to his room.
"Sir, eat" said a woman in her twenties who came there carrying a tray filled with porridge and a glass of water.
"Where is Leya" a rare question that came out of Aldrich's mouth.
"Leya went home first sir, she said Kenan was sick" answered the woman with long hair tied up named Ririn.
"Put the porridge here, you go out" ordered Aldrich in a curt voice.
Aldrich was independent he ate the porridge with his own hands.
Only the sound of tapping between the spoon and the bowl was heard in the quiet room, only the silence that Aldrich hoped for, so the Villa was the right place for Aldrich.
Because previously Aldrich did not live there, but because several times Aldrich was sought after by his enemies, Aldrich moved to a villa in a remote village.
It was not in vain that Aldrich spent billions, because what Aldrich got was more than the amount of money, the Mafia Leader got peace, a very beautiful view and most importantly Aldrich could hide from the enemies who were targeting him.
"Aldrichhhhh" shouted a man from outside Aldrich's room door.
It felt like the silence that Aldrich longed for would disappear when Van Michelle Amhar came there, he immediately sat next to Aldrich who was currently putting the porridge into his mouth.
"How much money did you spend to buy this villa?" asked Van impolitely, he even asked how much Aldrich bought the villa even though Aldrich was currently sick.
"Don't discuss that problem here, I don't want to count it" snapped Aldrich.
"They say the girls in this village never fail" Van fantasized, he even imagined that there were angels in the village they were living in.
"I don't know," Aldrich said briefly, clearly showing that he was not in the mood to talk.
Van looked at the bandaged wound on Aldrich's hand.
Without feeling, Van immediately pulled the bandage off, making the stitched wound look perfect.
"Ishh," Van shuddered in horror.
"You choose your own room, just think of this as your villa too, and remember Van, never touch a girl or anyone in this villa" Aldrich warned.
Van frowned, he was a free man, there was no way he could live alone.
"Why" Van looked questioningly at Aldrich.
"The rules from the residents before I bought this villa" said Aldrich.
"You are not allowed to commit adultery in this place, you are not allowed to close the water access, you have no right to close the road, don't make a scene, the residents here don't like newcomers, especially if they are arrogant and like to make a scene" said Mr. Arif when Aldrich bought the villa.
It is likely that Aldrich could only stay there, but indirectly the residents there also asked Aldrich to help smooth their daily lives.
Of course, that was not a big deal for Aldrich, considering that when it came to acting, Aldrich was the right person to do it.
"Then what about women" asked Van who immediately looked less enthusiastic.
"There is a villa that you can use to fulfill your biological needs" said Aldrich giving the address and a key to Van.
"CK you are indeed the best friend" clicked in admiration that only Van could do what's more Aldrich is very good at making drama.

Tonight felt very quiet, only the sound of crickets accompanied the dark night.
Under the moonlight, a man was seen who was currently enjoying the night on the balcony near his room.
The wind blew against his handsome face, his breath sounded heavy.
He was only accompanied by a bottle of wine that was half full.
He took a sip of the drink until his Adam's apple went up and down because he swallowed the drink.
That's how Aldrich is, every night he will miss someone who is very precious to him.
But unfortunately the person he loves is already in the arms of God, Aldrich looked at the sky which is currently scattered with stars.
"How are you? Is it cold there? I'm sick, Hufh, when will you come here and take care of me? Can't I ask for a replacement for you" Aldrich thought while enjoying the view of the countryside from up there.
Who is the person that Aldrich loves?
Does it feel like his burden is very heavy?
