"Lorah, Lorah!...."
Choi shouted, she was doing just fine some moments ago, wait was she fine? he shook her continuesly before she gave a groan. Her eyes were pale accompanying her lips, in fact her whole body went pale and just then his wife entered the room with her smile falling from her face and she stared at the scene in front of her. Choi realizing her presence staggered not knowing what to do or say, "w- what is....?" She spoke not finding the right words to use and Choi looked like he was going to go on his knees but then Hao went backwards enough to get out of the room.
The rest of the evening was something, with silence filling the huge building. Hao stayed in the guest room for sometime, she thought, she could be a superwoman and not be affected by what she had created but who was she deceiving. Occasionally looking at her husband and what mess she had placed him into was killing her, he was not even going to work and he in his worst of moods. On the other hand was Lorah who didn't know how to look at her masters, the other had become a man who slept with her against her will and the other was somewhat betrayed by both...
Just like that they avoided each other and it went on for some days, weeks and a month had come to pass when Rachel came around when she returned from the states. She had her big smile on her face as usual and she was now staring at Lorah from head to toe, making her even guilty than she felt. Her face souring up, she then turned to look at her friend who was staring back at them, her expression unable to be defined and Lorah shook at the tension in the room. " Well?" Rachel spoke still looking down at Lorah. "Ma'am?" Lorah managed to speak when she realized Rachel was speaking to her, "well.....say something!!!" She screamed at Lorah who almost lost her balance, " ma'am I don't know what to say- and just then her saviour came in, he descended the stairs and the sound of his slippers getting into contact with the marbled stairs was only heard. " welcome back from your trip miss Wong, did you report home before making my home issues yours?" He asked her sarcastically with an an annoying smile on his face, Rachel stared at him with disbelief and her pride went down the way when Choi's friendly expression turned to one of an unfriendliness on the battlefield, with his strange blue irises even more scary. Lorah shook in her place, " Rachel just come with me- Hao couldn't complete her words when Choi's expression hardened even more. " Miss Wong was just leaving, right?" He said, directing his gaze back on Rachel and she forcefully nodded her head and turned around to leave with disappointment. Lorah felt cold air pass and her once sweating body due to tension subsided. Choi then looked at her and said, "you should go back to what you were doing" and she quickly left the couple in the living room. " Did you really kick Rachel out of our house?" His wife sounded unpleased with the frown on her face and even Choi was not smiling. " We need to fix our problems on our own not inviting others would solve it" he said and Hao scoffed, " yeah, how do you supposed we fix the fact that you fucked the maid of our house on our fuckin bed?" She asked with irritation and her hands on her waist. Choi stared at her with no comment, " it was a mistake, you know I would never do that Hao..... something was off" he said after a while of silence. " Oh please don't give me that, so you still didn't see anything wrong with her face or do we now look alike for you to sleep with?" She threw back at him and this time he had nothing to say. " That's what I thought!" She concluded and walked out on him. Hao at a far distance away from her husband, took in a deep breath, she had to play hard to get or seriously hurt by what she saw, well the pain was real.
Lorah chose this time to get some fresh air since the house was so occupied with a whole lot of issues and moreover, she didn't want to see master Choi and his angry wife. She had to get some groceries even if she had done that already, "you should have asked for a ride and not walk to...." " The grocery store" she answered him simply not looking at his sharp eyes and she even kept walking while Choi kept driving at her motion. " Get in the car!" He ordered and she stopped in her tracks, her inner self screamed no! " I wanted to walk over there" she spoke politely expecting the man to leave her be. Choi frowned and got of from the car only to grab her by the arm and force her to sit in the front seat of his car, Lorah pulled her arm from his grip and Choi did not give a damn of what she did, he secured her seat belt and banged the door before moving to the driver's seat to move the porch car from the traffic he had caused. The drive was a silent one and he realized Lorah, did not buy anything on the road she just kept staring, of course she did not need any groceries, she was just running away just like him. When the car came to a stop she tried to get off but Choi held her hand, " is this it? You would never talk to me again, you keep on running away from me... Lorah I just want to make things right" he said making her feel awkward. " Its okay master Choi, I don't hold any grudges. It was just a one night stand and its already been a month now, so please forget about it" she said trying to move from her seat yet the man was still holding her hand. " Just! This all was a just to you?! Lorah are you playing damp?" He said out of range and she flinched when he squeezed her hand. " I had always wanted you and you know it! I had received all the punishment you gave me and I endured a marriage life I did not want, I agree it was a mistake which I so much wish it wasn't yet I never considered it a just!" He sounded like a desperate man and Lorah turned to look at him, his blue irises stared at her with emotions running through them and she was tempted to touch his cheek and even run her fingers through his soft black hair but she pulled her hand back to her side. She had also loved him since the day one, yet she kept her pain to herself and cried everytime the couple did something lovely together. With that she got off and run into the store, she could not control her tears from falling from her brown eyes and she weakly walked inside the store trying to find something to buy, Choi stood there looking at he from the entrance of the store. He would have entered if not for the fear of being seen by his funs who might be in the grocery store and be made the headline of the evenings news and the hottest gossips front page on the media but that did not stop him from looking at the brownie who was trying to buy something.
