The Devil's Touch
#129
Liana and Thomas accompany in the room, the rest goes all out. Maxime, Miwa, Arsen, Daniel, Sky, Javier, Secretary Han and Kara just sat in the chair talking.
"Why is he sick?" ask Sky.
"Fatigue alone may be Mom" said Miwa.
"Fatigue? he did it in the mansion. It's not just painting and painting" Javier said.
"She's also rarely out" Secretary Han continued.
"Yes, because it rarely comes out so he's sick. Too much silence in the room is also not good, he does not exercise and eat a little" said Arsen who tried to cover the reason for Tessa to enter the Hospital.
Maxime just sat across his chest, leaning his back against the chair, not knowing what to say.
Sky's gaze was fixed on Daniel who was sitting to the left of Miwa.
"Maye ..."
Daniel looked at Sky. "Yes aunty?"
"You ..." Sky hung up his sentence and turned to Maxime who was looking down while kneeling his temple. Maxime was still thinking about Tessa's feelings for him, she couldn't possibly reciprocate Tessa's feelings. But because of this, Tessa got sick.
"You're serious about Miwa?" Sky asked but his eyes instead looked at Maxime, he was waiting for an answer from Maxime. Supposedly if they were really going to get engaged Maxime would definitely interfere in Miwa's engagement.
Because the most difficult is the blessing of Maxime not himself or Javier.
"Yes, aunt. I'm serious." Daniel's answer got a dislike delicacy from Arsen.
Secretary Han who saw his son could only sigh while shaking his head.
"You why?" kara whispered to Secretary Han.
"No," said Secretary Han.
"Maxime .." Sky finally called his son.
"Honey, this is the hospital. Why discuss engagement here" Javier whispered to Sky.
Miwa stared alternately at Arsen and Daniel who were sitting next to her.
"Can't you guys not fight here!"
"He wants to fight, I don't." Daniel answered with a nod of his head.
Maxime looked up at his mother. "Mom will talk later about Arsen and Miwa."
"Huh? why Arsen and Miwa?" ask Kara.
"I-I mean Arsen and Daniel." Maxime looked down but.
"Huh?" they called out all while looking towards Maxime now.
Maxime looked up again as he clucked. "I mean Miwa and Daniel ... Yes, Miwa and Daniel. Ah come on, my head wants to break!!" pissed Maxime.
Maxime moved from his seat to go somewhere leaving those who could only gape with Maxime's departure.
Maxime's mind is in a frenzy right now, thinking of Tessa who is sick and Milan who also know that Tessa likes her.
It turns out that thinking about feelings is much more complicated than thinking about traitors like Jack used to be.
When Jack betrays Maxime always looks relaxed as if there is nothing and is not afraid of anything. But this problem is very different, a problem that involves feeling so difficult to overcome.
Maxime rode up to the rooftop, looking up at the city street from above and lighting a cigarette with a lighter. His hair was blown by the wind, the air still felt fresh even though the road had begun to be crowded with motorcycles and cars.
What filled his brain were two women now. Tessa as the sister she loves and Milan her lover.
He knows Tessa very well, this is not the first time Tessa has been ill if what she wants is not achieved. He was always like that from a small age, all things had to come true, otherwise he would be sick.
Maxime ruffled his hair in frustration, Tessa would probably understand if he tried to advise her to still think of her as an older sister.
But the thing is, what if Tessa finds out about Arsen and Miwa's relationship. Everything's gonna get complicated.
Maxime can't take it anymore, he needs Milan now to calm his mind. He tried to send a message to the girl.
Maxime put his phone back in his pocket and walked back to the others.
Maxime opened the door to Tessa's room. They're taking Tessa on a chat while joking.
"Sir Maxi .." call Tessa.
Maxime smiled faintly. "Hows it? you still have a fever?"
Maxime approached and checked Tessa's forehead.
"It's been a little downhill" said Maxime.
"Maxime, where did Miwa go?" ask Sky.
"Don't know Mom, let it go ..."
"Tessa, Arsen says you always eat a little. That right?" kara asked with intimidating eyes.
"I'm on a diet, Mommy Kara ..."
"Who told you to diet? you're so skinny like Tessa." Liana looked a little annoyed, fortunately, was immediately pacified by Thomas.
"He's sick again, don't be upset ..."
"Yes but, look at your daughter. His diet habits have never gone away. How clean." Liana snorted while Tessa simply bent her face.
"That's Liana," continued Sky.
"Maxime, you go home. We are here" said Thomas.
Before answering Maxime glanced at Tessa, the woman shook her head asking Maxime not to leave.
"I'm here ..."

Meanwhile in the hallway of the Hospital, three human beings were chasing each other with steps full of energy.
"MIVA!!" shouted Arsen.
"DANIEL!!" yell Miwa to Daniel.
Daniel who walked ahead quickened his pace. Really, he was lazy to interfere in the game made by Maxime and Miwa.
"DANIEL ..." cried Miwa again.
Miwa herself does not accept Daniel leaving because she still wants to make Arsen jealous.
"MIWA ..." cried Arsen from behind.
Arsen pulls Miwa's hand and corners her against the wall.
"Where are you going, huh?!"
"What is your business?!" Miwa asked back with a sharp.
"Sister doesn't like you going with Daniel!!"
"Who are you banning me? neither is my lover!! Just an adoptive brother don't organize much!!"
Arsen snorted, took a breath for a moment and said honestly.
"I love you ..."
Miwa widened her eyes hearing Arsen's words. His heart seemed to want to jump out so happy. But, she had to be an expensive woman as Maxime said.
Miwa cleared a moment. "Silver Arsen said that because I didn't want to go with Daniel. Aye right?"
"No Miwa!! Look, from now on don't take each other's brother and sister anymore, okay."
Miwa was silent for a moment then pushed Arsen's body and shouted back while stepping her legs.
"NICKEL ..."
Arsen sizzled furiously again pulling Miwa's hand and this time the man immediately kiss*m Miwa in the hallway of the Hospital.
Miwa froze in place when Arsen took off his kiss*n.
"Have you? do you believe it now? so cut the crap about the engagement or brother will kill Daniel!!"
Miwa swallowed her hard-earned saliva. "I-I'm going to the bathroom first."
The woman turned around to go to the bathroom. Arsen just rubbed his face rough looking at Miwa's departure.
Who wouldn't be nervous about doing that with a woman he's considered his sister for decades.
