120 Do not Deny Anymore

Hearing Zeline’s story, made Kalea even more careful in her words for fear that the blonde girl would be offended or feel uncomfortable. Kalea did not think that Zeline’s problems could be so serious and almost similar to her life’s problems. However, Zeline was able to cover it all up so firmly even though the girl just wanted to look fine in front of her two siblings.

Kalea feels defeated, because all this time, she has complained and feels like the world is happy with her suffering. She also feels guilty toward Zeline because, in the beginning, when she talked to the girl, Kalea thought that Zeline’s life was perfect compared to hers. Well, no one knows what a person’s life is like because everyone has different life problems.

“Oh, this is delicious,” Kalea praised while eating Zoey and Zac’s dinner.

“Really? Thank you! Honestly, I’m afraid it won’t suit your tongue,” Zoey said with a sweet smile and then handed Kalea some other side dishes. “Eat a lot, Sis. You must be exhausted after studying in college.”

“Thank you. May I know how old you are?”

“Hm? Zac and I are 15 years old, this year is our last year in middle school,” Zoey replied.

“I see. You must be busy studying preparing for high school,” Kalea said, looking at the twins alternately.

“That’s right, Zoey even had nosebleeds from studying too much,” Zac said as he ate his chicken casually. Meanwhile, his twin was wide-eyed in disbelief and swallowed her saliva with difficulty because Zac had leaked the secret between them.

“T-that-”

.....

“Zoey! You had a nosebleed? When?” Zeline asked excitedly, she did not want anything to happen to her two siblings, even if it was just a trivial matter.

“I-it’s been a long time, really! I don’t have frequent nosebleeds after all!” Zoey replied, trying to calm her sister who if she got angry it would be very troublesome for her and Zac. She lightly pinched Zac’s thigh, then whispered softly, “Why did you leak about that?!”

“So that you are not that hard in studying, because it’s useless your grades are never good,” Zac replied while rubbing his thigh which was a victim of violence from Zoey. “None of us are academically smart, so there’s no need to force it.”

“But we still have to learn!”

“Yes, of course we have to. But there’s no need to try so hard, I don’t want you to be seriously ill, Zoey,” Zac said, looking at Zoey seriously, making the three women there stupefied.

“I-I’m fine ....”

“Zoey! I told you, if something happened, tell me. You too, Zac, please take care of your twin,” Zeline said, she took a deep breath and massaged her temples because she suddenly felt dizzy after knowing her sister’s condition. She could not keep an eye on them every second because she was busy with her work, which was always called here and there by her daddys.

“Yes, Sis. Don’t worry, you don’t work too hard. You can also get sick,” Zac said again eating his food.

Kalea smiled faintly at the interaction of the three siblings. Although Zac is the last child, because Zac is the only son, it seems to make Zac feel responsible for caring for Zoey and Zeline. Kalea’s heart warmed as she observed their relationship. A relationship that she will never feel because she is an only child with no siblings at all.

“If you need help in academics, you can ask me. Maybe I can help,” Kalea said in between their conversations, making the three people now turn their attention to Kalea.

“Oh, that’s right! Lea is very smart; she won a scholarship and was a teaching assistant!” Zeline exclaimed, suddenly proud to have friends she could rely on in this kind of field. “Well, even though she’s only good at academics.”

Four angles appeared on Kalea’s forehead, she was offended by the blonde girl’s words. “What do you mean, huh?”

“Really? We can ask you? Ah, But we don’t want to bother you,” Zoey said, who was initially excited as if she had a glimmer of hope but in an instant the girl became gloomy.

“No, really. Maybe this can be a return of favor because you have let me stay here,” Kalea said with a very sweet smile.

Zac and Zoey were stunned, their blue eyes seemed to be unable to move anywhere other than to see their sister’s friend who was so charming. While Zeline just shook her head, already aware of the behavior of her two sisters, then said, “You must be thinking that Lea is very beautiful, like an angel, right?”

The twins were immediately shocked and embarrassed. Zac immediately looked down and pretended to be busy with food while Zoey just laughed softly because her sister’s guess was never wrong.

After that dinner, Zeline also invited Kalea to return to the room. Zoey and Zac separated into their respective rooms. Now Kalea pays attention to Zeline who is busy with body and facial care at night. It seems that Zeline’s treatment is more than what Kalea does; even just looking at Zeline makes Kalea dizzy.

“You’re not with your daddy today?” Kalea asked.

“I tell them one by one that today I am sick,” Zeline answered, saying it without any burden at all. Kalea also responded by nodding in understanding. “Did Arthur contact you? Was he really that normal after you said you’d be gone for a month?”

Asked like that, Kalea made herself reach for her cellphone and then check the message. “There was no notification from that person. Never mind, I also don’t want to think about it too much. After all, he really trusts me,” Kalea replied, turning off her cell phone again.

“”Either you believe or he really doesn’t care,” Zeline replied as she got up from the dressing table because her treatment series had finished. “Are you okay?”

“Huh? ...of course. Why suddenly ask that?” Kalea asked back, her brow furrowed, in surprise.

Zeline rolled her eyes lazily, still trying to put up with Kalea’s attitude who always tried to look fine no matter how Arthur treated the girl.

“Are you taking the car to campus?” Zeline asked about changing the topic to something else. “My advice is better not to do that. Just keep it here, what if Arthur finds out you lied to him?”

“But I think I still have to act as usual. “Zeline, I think Aluna can heat up my relationship with Arthur if something is different from me, even if it’s just a little,” Kalea said solemnly, leaving Zeline speechless. A little justify also in her mind.

Zeline raised an eyebrow, then asked, “Why do you think that? Ah, does she still bother you?”

“I think she still doesn’t accept Arthur’s refusal.”

“Tch, cheap girl.”

“...aren’t we similar to her?”

“Hey, at least we get paid and there is a will for each other. Then her? Even though Arthur was just playing with her, but his attitude soared so much. Ew, I hate women like her,” Zeline snorted while showing a disgusted face.

The corner of Kalea’s lips lifted upwards, and the girl smiled amusedly. “You’re right, now I agree.”

Day by day began to pass, Kalea was getting used to being in the midst of the Zeline family. Everything went on as usual, even without Arthur by her side. Kalea kept trying to get used to being without the man, even though Arthur called her several times, Kalea did not answer at all until finally the man really did not text anymore.

Kalea looked down at the cellphone screen sadly, even though she was the one who started all this, but it felt like after all that happened, Kalea became sad. She knew Arthur was just acting as she had said before. Even though it’s all a lie. However, she could not deny that she really missed that annoying and perverted man.

The money Angela gave her was still intact, not touched at all. Because basically, Kalea does not really need that kind of money. So far, she has saved more money from Arthur if at any time there was an unexpected situation and cornered her. Or another option, of course, is that if later she is no longer with Arthur, at least there is still money she can use to live while she looks for work again.

Zeline had been watching Kalea, who looked nervous like a hot worm. Her brows were twitching in annoyance, for the past few days Kalea’s condition had been more gloomy than overcast clouds. The brunette-haired girl continued to stare at her cellphone screen but had no intention of replying to Arthur’s message. This of course made her uncomfortable, and could not stand Kalea’s attitude.

“Hey, if you can’t do it, there’s no need to force it. Reply to Arthur’s message and go see him,” Zeline said, starting to express her heart that had been plagued by anger at Kalea.

Kalea shook her head, still stubborn. “I have to terminate that contract, this is just the beginning before I completely lose contact with Arthur.”

Zeline squeaked in annoyance, her irritation getting worse because Kalea kept denying her true feelings. “Do you want to know something? You’ll never be able to do it because you already love that guy! You should be aware of this, Lea!” Zeline snapped, making Kalea look up at her with rounded eyes.

“W-what do you mean? I can’t possibly have felt like that, Arthur and I just-”

“You can’t keep denying that fact! I can’t stand your attitude that keeps thinking if you only need money from Arthur,” Zeline replied as she pulled the shirt worn by Kalea, making the brunette-haired girl even more surprised. “You love him, Lea. If you’re suffering more from this, you better break the deal and go back to Arthur!”
