Chapter 5
"Did I tell you to get out of the house?!"
As soon as we got home to Drew's house, I immediately received a shout from him. I could feel his anger immediately every time he stared at me. I just bowed and I did not speak to him.
"I thought you were the one who had a plan when those men came here. I thought... I thought you wanted me to shift my attention to them so that I would not chase after you again, so that I would not be hurt by you. "
I still do not raise my eyes to him because I am afraid to meet his stares at me.
"Heh. Are you kidding? I will never do that thing." He laughed bitterly at me.
I lifted my face and looked at him. "Are you-"
"Because I would rather hurt you than be happy with others while I am struggling to just get tied up with you. That's just fair, isn't it?"
I bowed because of what he said. You're so stupid, Rhianna. You believe in yourself that there is still hope, that there is still hope for him to love you too.
"Why is that? I just love, but why do I have to be hurt? I did nothing wrong to be punished like this. I just loved."
I prevented myself from crying again in front of him and tried to reflect my smile even though I could hear my sobbing right now. However, I really get to the point where I can't stop crying. When my tears fell, I immediately wiped them away. I just kept wiping my tears with no end in sight.
"You should know and understand that when you love, you also need acceptance. You need to understand that we are both like the moon and the sun. We are maybe perfect for each other, but we are not meant to be together."
I was stunned by what he stated and thought. Every word that he throws at me, I felt like my heart is burning. How I wish I could disappear from the world immediately. With the weight of my feelings, my chest suddenly tightened and I had difficulty breathing again. I can no longer hear what Drew is saying because my whole body is really weak right now. As far as I know before I completed block out, he approached me.
Jared's POV.
"How dare you, Drew! My sister is innocent and always kind to you! She did everything for you and you know that! How could you do that to her!"
If I hadn't been able to control my emotions, I might have killed the person in front of me now. We are here at the hospital because Rhia had a heart attack again and her animal husband was just calm as if nothing had happened. I really think he is not human because of his emotionless heart.
"Tss. Are you still blaming me? I haven't done anything to her. Besides, she wants us to get married, right? I just show her that with someone she doesn't like, only pain will be given to her. "
I don't know if I can understand what he said or if he just really boiled my temper. Because of my anger, I could not help but punch him in the face. He was stunned for a moment by what I did and then he stared at me sharply before left me behind.
I didn't chasing him and just went to the room where Rhia was. When I got there, I caught up with Rhia who was looking somewhere. She was awake. I approached her and smiled at her.
"Rhia, are you feeling okay?"
She turned in my direction and stared at me. She was speechless for a few minutes and then she let out a deep sigh.
"Brother, can you please tell me the truth."
I bowed my head because to her statement. She seemed to be looking for a word that I could answer her. I do not know if I can tell her now about her illness. I'm scared.
"Please, brother. I want to know the truth."
I let out a sigh first then raised my head and decided to just tell her the truth.
"I'm sorry, Rhia. I know I shouldn't hide your illness from you." It was as if a thorn had been pulled out of my chest after I told her those words.
Rhia frowned at what I said and seemed confused by my statement.
"Illness? What illness?"
"There is a hole in your heart. That's why every time you get tired or become too emotional, your chest suddenly tightens." I feel like I'm going to be blown away by the words coming out of my mouth.
"B-Brother... Are you kidding me? Tell me, brother that you're just fooling me. Tell me!"
As I though. I should not have told her the truth. I know she will be surprised by this thing.
"I'm sorry, Rhia, but I think you need to leave Drew because you will die if you stay with him."
I don't want to keep a secret from my sister again and I think it would be better for her to know her true condition so that it does not get worse later.
"Brother Jared, does Drew know about this?"
I could see in Rhia's eyes that she was holding back her tears.
"No. He doesn't know anything about it yet."
"Then, don't let him know about it. Don't you ever tell him that I'm sick. Please, brother. I beg you."
I stared at her with confused.
"Why? Wouldn't it be better for you if he found out? That way, he will treat you better now."
"That's the problem, brother. I don't want him to change himself because I'm just sick. I want him to treat me the same way he treated me from the beginning and one more thing... and one more thing, brother. I accept now. I accept right now. I accept that I am not what he wants. That's okay. The only thing that is difficult... the only thing that is difficult to accept is why he can't even see me as Rhianna Marquez. Someone who has loved him ever since. "
I can't help, but feel sad too to her. I don't know what to do now because I know it's hard to forget the person you once treat as the world.
