It's Not My fault
Chapters. 19

BSM Chapter. 19

Coming to the largest shopping center in the city, Ryan chose to change the look. Uncoat, roll up the sleeves of the shirt to the elbow limit, wear a hat and sunglasses. Ryan went to one of the branded watch outlets in the mall he went to. He deliberately looks like that so as not to flashy and attract the attention of many people.

Edrick who went with him could only be astonished as well to wonder what Ryan was doing. Actually it is not new if the master is buying a branded item. Dozens of branded watches at fantastic prices have lined up neatly to fill the wardrobe of the master. It's just that, what makes Edrick even more astonished is, Ryan bought a woman's watch.

So far, despite the almost countless number of women Ryan has dated, not once has the man given a gift. For something romantic in nature, maybe Ryan is far below the standard of romantic men. Because that man doesn't really care about things that smell like romance. His relationship with the women was only limited to the fulfillment of biological needs. Not more.

But this time, Edrick was endlessly wondering, for whom did his master buy a watch. Is it for Paola, his sister? Or for his beloved mother?

I don't know.

“Tell me what's on your mind. Don't assume for yourself,” Ryan said as soon as he finished buying a women's watch, and he found Edrick dumbstruck himself. Stare at him with a confused face.

“Emm ... Sorry, Mr. Ryan.” Edrick was a little surprised. Not wanting to offend his master, Edrick chose not to respond. He realized that he had no right to interfere in his master's personal affairs. This time it felt strange and unusual.

“I have two women in my life. One of them wanted me to give him a gift. Is that wrong?” Ryan smiled obliquely, guessing the contents of Edrick's head.

Edrick is misbehaving, Ryan can guess the contents of his head. It is not wrong if Ryan wants to give gifts to his sister or mother. But Edrick had thought about who the lucky woman who got a gift from a Ryan.

“Jaga well. I'm going to the toilet for a while.” Ryan put the paper bag with the branded watch logo into Edrick's hands. Then he rushed to find the toilet.

Ryan was walking fast, slightly lowering his head. Hiding his handsome face behind sunglasses as well as a hat, he avoided the gaze of many pairs of eyes. His steps swung swiftly towards the toilet with his face bowed, slightly paying no attention to the road. So suddenly, he accidentally hit someone who had just come out of the female toilet.

“Sorry, sorry. I'm sorry. I was not accidentally.” There was a soft voice of a woman. Apologizing in the panjangkan. And strangely, the voice was like a stranger to Ryan.

Raising his head slowly, Ryan found a familiar face. Although only a few times met, but the face seemed to have been neatly stored in the head. The shadow is still beautiful attached to the eye pelupuk. The face of ayu with a pulse of makes up sober it may not be attractive in the eyes of some men. But in Ryan's eyes, it's like the moon of the night. Although not shining brightly, but able to illuminate the corner of his heart that was pitch black.

“I'm sorry, Mr.” The woman, Laura, clenched her hands in front of her face. As a gesture of sincere apology.

There was a hint of strangeness on Laura's face that caught Ryan's gaze. Ryan took off his sunglasses. Looking at that face carefully, he then frowned. Red and puffy eyes, the tip of the nose that was also flushed, presented a sudden anxiety in Ryan's heart. The contents of his head guessed, if Laura had just cried.

Is that assumption not wrong?

What made that woman cry?

Aw, Ryan. You're making things up. As soon as Ryan denied his head.

Laura was surprised as soon as Ryan took off his sunglasses. He got the wrong behavior so nervous when Ryan hit him with a barely blinking gaze.

“We meet again. Hi, how are you?” Just this time Ryan forgot how to seduce a woman. I don't know why in front of Laura he was like an inexperienced bachelor approaching women.

“But I didn't come here to collect damages. I just happened to want to go toi..”.

“Laura.”

Ryan's words were interrupted when Rere's voice called out. The girl came closer. As soon as Ryan put his glasses back on, slightly lowered his face until it was blocked behind the hat. So Rere doesn't recognize. The girl frowned seeing that there was a strange man around Laura.

“I'm looking for you everywhere, you know, Ra. I thought you were home,” said Rere.

“Laura, you why, Ra?” rere asked before Laura could say.

“Why what?” Laura avoided Rere's probing gaze. He began to suspect what was happening to him. His departure to the public restroom was not to fulfill the call of nature. But to spill the frustration, heartache, disappointment, and jealousy that has filled his chest cavity. So that the chest feels tight until the urge tears spill over. Luckily the woman's toilet was a bit quiet, so no one had time to hear her sobs.

“Don't say you're crying, Ra,” Rere added guess. Unfortunately, his guess did not miss. But Laura refused to allow.

“Who's crying, Re. You ngaco. My eyes hurt. Maybe because I'm tired. I couldn't sleep all night and played my phone late. Maybe that's why my eyes are tired, sore, and even so red like this,” denied Laura. He didn't want Rere to prolong this trivial matter. Rere's the guy who cares too much.

“Laura, I am your best friend. You can't hide anything from me, Ra.”

“Apaan anyway, Re. I'm it's okay. I'm doing fine. Okay well? Come.” Quickly Laura pulled Rere's wrist. Dragged him away from that place. Leaving Ryan alone in his place.

Ryan turned his head, looking at Laura's back which was starting to drift away. Until the back disappeared behind the crowd of other mall visitors.

“Plan-pelan streets, Laura. You are being chased by people again. Oh yeah, who was that freak? You know?” rere asked curiously while following Laura's quick steps.

“Nobody, Re. I don't know either.”

“But if noticed like someone deh. That's the handsome angel who stopped by our shop, Ra. You remember not?”

“Lup. I don't pay much attention to his face.” Laura just refused to talk about anything unimportant. So that he did not respond too much to Rere's words. Moreover, if he tells Rere if he knows the man, his business may even be longer and more complicated. Understandably, Rere was indeed a delinquent with a handsome face. Like Ryan for example.

Intending to return to the place of Mika's birthday celebration, Laura's steps stopped before entering the place. Mika's birthday celebration, held in an open area at one of the mall's venues, is enough to provide a viewing space for Laura to see from a distance.

Across the street, Laura's pair of eyes caught an unusual sight. Lely, her mother-in-law was chatting with Feli. Among them was Theo.

They look preoccupied with the chatter. Maybe the chatter is exciting, so they laugh happily. What seemed unusual in Laura's eyes was that Feli occasionally touched Theo's arm affectionately. From his body language, it was as if to describe the closeness between the two.

A sense of tightness suddenly filled the space in his chest. Laura does not want to think that is not, especially to be suspicious. But what was clearly visible before his eyes was presenting an unusual taste in his chest.
