Chapter 73 - Sulking makes you think everything

Edgar finally wakes up around 8 am yet feel a little dizzy and neck pain. As he wanted to rub his neck he can't move his hand. He tried to pull it several times but can't. "What!?" He was surprised as he was tied-up on a chair with both of his hand tied by a rope on his back. Edgar was struggling to escape and wondering which shit did it to him.

"Kitana!" Edgar shouted her name many times. He was worried about Kitana as no sound was made. He kept shouting Kitana's name until he realised she was there on his bed, sleeping with her body covered his blanket.

He sighed as he remembered he was drunk heavily last night. And he released that the shirt he wears is not as same as he wears the night before, a glass of water beside him and his dirty shirt on the floor. "I didn't do anything weird to her, right?" Edgar talks to himself. He stares at sleeping Kitana and looks at his pants. "Yup, I didn't do anything to her. Definitely... but did I?" He thinks so many time, but why he ended up being tied-up on a chair? There's must be a reason for his answer.

Suddenly, he looks himself at a mirror. His eyes were swollen red while his nose was hurt and red as if punch by someone. Edgar kept thinking and it could drive him crazy if he continues to do it.

Edgar tried his best to wake Kitana up. Calling and shouting her name. Kitana yawns and stretches herself. "What...?" Kitana rubs her sleepy. Edgar threw her thousand and one questions and Kitana just walk away after looking at his face. Then she leaves him questioning her while she continues to sleep in her room.

Edgar tried to escape himself and calls Angeline's name as Angeline told them before. Just call her by her name and she will come. "Angeline" She called her literally for the 30th time. "Angeline, help me... I'm dying" He sobbed. Not long after the 35th time he called her name finally Angeline came. "What do you want? I'm eat-" she stopped talking as she looks at Edgar's condition. With his messy hair and his attire. "What an awful face you got there" Angeline praised him sarcastically as she frees him from the chair.

"I know" Edgar stands up but he lost his balance made him fall hard on the floor. Angeline helps him to get up and walk him to the bathroom. Angeline was so curious, why did he tied-up on a chair.

"Girl...?" Angeline remembered about Kitana. She went to the kitchen and searched for Kitana yet Kitana acts normal as if nothing happened, quietly cooking breakfast in the kitchen. Angeline asked her about Edgar and she gave her the I'm-not-giving-a-damn-shit reaction. Somehow she was still angry and sulking about what he had said to her. Angeline shrugged and told her not to worry anything too much.

Edgar sits at the dining table waiting a chance to speak with her and she completely ignored him for good. "What have I done to deserve this ignorance?" He started to piss off looking at her with anger. Both of them were arguing and Kitana gave him a terrifying stare that he never saw it before.

And then she stands up, putting her breakfast aside. "Find the reasons before you speak to me again!" Kitana poked his chest and it's very hurt as her nails went straight to his skin even though it's covered by a shirt. Their day wasn't as good as before as Kitana giving him a cold shoulder all day long. "Is she sulking or angry...? Or is she in her period?" he thought but he didn't mean to say it loudly. From her room, Kitana was shouting denying what he has said about her before he heard Kitana slammed the door with a great force.

Hours went by and it's almost night time, Kitana still didn't come out from her room. The living room was empty and he was in his room, playing Xbox with the boys online. Edgar sighed as he took off his headphone. He couldn't bear being in a cold relationship with his housemate as for him the answers is the only way to cut off the cold relationship between them.

// Knock knock //

"Kitana...Kitana... I'm going out for a while to friend's place. Lock the door after I go. And I promise will be back before 9." He speaks softly to tell her that he's not mad at her anymore. No reaction nor a sound was made. Her room was quiet and empty. Only the ticking clock could be heard.

"You still alive in there, aren't you?" He asked her as he knocked faster and faster. He was anxious about her condition. < She didn't commit suicide because of me, right? > He gasped. Edgar called her thousands time yet still there's no reaction from her. He decided to call her and she rejected his call.

"I thought you were already dead" Edgar facepalmed. He doesn't know what do to make her happy again. Understanding a girl's behaviour is one of the most difficult things in life. He then leaves her in her room.

[ Antony's room ]

"How's everything going?" Antony pats his shoulder 3 times. Not everyone was there. Only Antony, Edgar and some others from his gang gathered there. "Don't know man. She's mad at me and asks me to find the actual reason" he clicked his tongue and took a cold drink from a metal bucket filled with ice cubes.

"Maybe she was mad at you because you suddenly pulled her on your laps and start saying a stupid thing." Upon hearing it, he coughed as he choked on his drink. Antony softly pats his back and shook his head. "I pulled her?" he shouted at Antony's ear and his mouth was opened really wide until a bed could go in there. "Bro let me tell me what happened..." Antony starts.
