Chapter 10 - HURT AGAIN

After returning from the beach, Karin invited Aska to stop by doctor's Heru's office, just to check Aska's health. Karin's feelings were relieved when Doctor Heru said that Aska's condition had not decreased. However, routine therapy must still be done if Aska's condition doesn't want to drop. In the post-last therapy, the patient's condition will usually experience a tremendous drop, which can lead to death. If the patient is not strong, it will make the patient experience a very drastic decline.

Aska who also heard shuddered with horror. His fear was very visible on his face. Karin touched the tip of Aska's shoulder.

"You can definitely get through it, don't be afraid I will accompany you until you get well." said Karin earnestly.

"Promise?" asked Aska like a young child.

Karin lightly punched Aska's shoulder with exasperation.

"I don't have to promise, it's just that I'll definitely remember everything I said." Karin looked at Aska seriously.

Karin and Aska thanked Doctor Heru and said goodbye at the same time. At that moment Karin and Aska came home.

On the way home, Aska's mind did not feel calm, his heart felt restless, in his mind, Doctor Heru's explanation was still ringing.

"Karin." called Aska in a low voice.

"What?" Karin replied, turning to Aska briefly.

"If I can't get through all this right?" asked Aska seriously.

"Why do you talk like that? You haven't started yet. Why are you desperate?" Karin asked with a frown.

"I'm just afraid I can't get past it and leave you." said Aska in a voice barely audible.

Karin slowly stopped the car on the side of the road, then looked up at Aska's face.

"You have to believe and believe, if you can make it through. There is me here to take care of you." said Karin earnestly.

"Promise me, whatever happens you will not leave me." said Aska with a look full of hope.

Karin took a deep breath.

"I can't promise you, until you have the zeal to live. Now prove it to me first. Only then can I promise you." said Karin staring deeply at Aska's face.

Aska fell silent then nodded his head.

"Okay, I'll try for that." said Aska smiling in a deep voice.

After seeing Aska calm down a little, Karin started the car again at moderate speed.

Aska looked at the road in front of him. With a restless mind and tired body, Aska finally fell asleep. Karin, who had been observing Aska's restlessness, was also concerned.

Karin's small heart is actually sad, why is Aska who is so handsome and has a good heart to have such a trial.

Karin stopped her car to the side of the road slowly. She took off the seatbelt and took the jacket behind the chair.

She observed Aska's face, which now always looked pale since leukemia attacked him.

With a heavy sigh, she covered Aska's upper body with the jacket he took.

So that Aska's body would feel warm and not cold because it was already night.

Karin looked at her watch it was nine in the evening. Without seeing Aska again, Karin drove her car at high speed to get home as quickly as possible.

At home, Karin immediately put the car into the garage of the house. While removing her seatbelt, Karin massages her neck which is a little sore.

She saw Aska still fast asleep. Slowly Karin approached Aska's motionless body, and intended to remove Aska's seatbelt which was still attached.

Karin's body moved slightly to touch Aska's front, which made Aska disturbed from his sleep.

Karin stopped her movements waiting for Aska to fall asleep again.

After a few seconds, Karin managed to remove the Aska seatbelt. By letting go of her breath that had just stopped, Karin intended to wake Aska from his sleep, but couldn't bear to see Aska who was fast asleep because of exhaustion.

Karin's thoughts diverged between waking Aska to sleep in his room, or letting Aska sleep in the car sitting up would definitely make Aska's back hurt later.

Karin looked back at Aska's face, with a little courage and using her hand strength to lower the back of Aska's chair so that it was slightly parallel with his chair. Because it was too strong, the chair's back dropped so fast, which caused Aska's body and head to fall slightly on the back of the chair which fell down.

Aska jumped in shock, making Karin also shocked and fell on Aska's body. Spontaneously, Aska's hand hugged Karin's waist, so it wouldn't hurt her too much. Aska and Karin's faces were very close. With sleepy eyes and tired body, Aska closed his eyes again while still hugging Karin's waist.

Karin was embarrassed.

"Aska just opened his eyes when she fell earlier, why are you sleeping again now? Aska is really sleeping or just pretending?" Karin waved her hand at Aska's eyes, convincing herself that Aska was really asleep again or just pretending.

Aska's eyes did not blink nor did he move, his body also did not move at all, but still hugged her.

Karin held her body with her elbows so that it wouldn't hit Aska's body too much.

Karin's body, which was also very tired and her eyes, which were already sleepy because she was driving, made her a little weak, and could not hold her body from her sleepiness.

Without feeling Karin fell asleep in Aska's arms. A few minutes after Karin fell asleep, Aska's eyes were closed open with a happy smile. Aska kissed the top of her hair, which was so fragrant on her nose.

"I love you." whispered Aska softly, then Aska went back to sleep by hugging Karin's waist tighter.

The next morning Karin was forced to wake up when she heard a screaming voice from a woman who called Aska's name many times in the yard.

With a little surprise, Karin found herself still on top of Aska's sleeping body.

Karin rushed away from Aska's body and had a little trouble when Karin was about to get out of the car door. Aska, who felt a movement on top of his body, was awakened.

"Where are you going?" Aska's hoarse voice sounded sexy when he woke up from sleep.

"Yes, wake up, it's already noon. You can hear a woman's voice calling you." Karin explained.

Aska put up his ears so he could hear the woman who was calling him.

"DEG"

"Sonya!" Sonya's name spontaneously came out of Aska's mouth after recognizing his screaming voice.

Aska's face was immediately irritated. Karin looked at Aska in surprise.

"Who is Sonya Ka?" Karin asked, glaring at Aska.

"You don't lie to me!"

Aska swallowed his saliva, he didn't want to lie to Karin. but if honestly Karin would be very angry, Aska was confused what to answer. Lied or honest.

"Sonya is my fiancé." Aska answered honestly because he didn't want to lie to Karin, the first woman he loved who introduced him to feelings of longing and love.

"PLAKK"

Karin slapped Aska's cheek so hard, that Aska's pale white cheek looked red.

Aska held his sore cheek, but it hurt more with his heart. Karin had slapped him for sure Karin would leave him and really hated him.

Karin looked into Aska's eyes with a complicated look, twice her heart was hurt and felt cheated, firstly Edo was the man she loved so much, and the second was Aska the man she promised she would take care of.

"To hell with all the boys!" shouted Karin inwardly. Karin opened the knob of the car door, but Aska's hand grabbed Karin's other wrist.

Karin turned to Aska's face with an angry face. And it really hurt Aska.

"Let go of your hand!" hissed Karin's voice in anger. Aska further tightened the block.

"Don't go yet, I beg ... please." wailed Aska.

"I'll explain it to you." Aska pleaded with his voice growing hoarse.

"What other explanation? Didn't you admit it if you were engaged to him?"

"I don't love her Rin, this is not what I want." said Aska sadly.

Karin laughed heartily.

"Don't love her! Not your will? So why are you engaged?" Karin's voice cynical.

"Enough! With your lies! Right now I will go!" Karin opened the knob of the car and lowered her feet to get out.

"If you get out of the car door, I promise to die right now in front of you!" shouted Aska, which made Karin hold her foot that almost touched the floor.

Karin sighed, it really hurt Karin's heart, it hurt more when Edo betrayed her.

With hurt feelings, Karin brushed aside her pity.

"I do not care!" Karin replied flatly, even though there was a feeling in the corner of her heart that she didn't understand. The feeling of being afraid of losing.

"I know, you will not care because you do not love me. But you need to know I love you very much! If you go, I will end my life now. After all, I will soon die too!" Aska pulled Karin's arm hard, until Karin's body fell back into a chair.

Quickly Aska pulled out the car keys and locked all the doors. Karin pushed Aska's chest hard, until Aska's back hit the car door glass.

"I really don't love you, you already know that from the beginning! And why should I care about you! You have lied to me! Destroy my trust! Is that how you love me?" shouted Karin with rage.

"Fine, if you really don't care about me and don't want to hear my explanation, and also don't believe my feelings. I will prove it now! According to my promise!" Aska's voice was heavy and desperate.

Aska opened the car drawer in front of him, he took a gun which had been stored there for a long time, just in case. Because Aska has a background as a CEO with many companies everywhere, and his life is always full of wealth, as well as a female explorer and often faces several enemies of his competitors who want his death.
