《Love Unfolding》30 Ego of a Man
Advertisement
Erika tended Andy's injury. The back of her hand was bleeding. They were seated on the bed without uttering a single word.
Andy noticed Erika's hands still trembling while wrapping the bandage on her hand. She did not say anything.
"What will happen now?" Erika asked after some time.
She bravely looked at Andy's eyes. She felt relieved seeing those murderous eyes awhile back were no more.
"They won't trouble us nor report us." Andy calmly answered.
Erika continued to wrap the bandage.
"We know the ego of a man," Andy continued. "They probably won't tell anyone that a girl beat them up."
Erika did not say anything but she still looked worried.
"I'm sorry to put you all through this." Andy added.
Erika looked up only to see a guilty pair of eyes.
"If I didn't bring you here…"
She shook her head.
"Nah, I couldn't be happier. Thank you for saving me." She then throw herself to hug Andy.
Andy hugged her back.
"Will you be okay? I mean psychologically."
Erika nodded against her chest.
"I'll be fine after some rest."
Both laid down to bed. Erika's back on Andy. Andy took the initiative to move closer and wrapped her arm around the girl. Erika smiled. She felt safer in her arms.
"I didn't know you knew martial arts."
"Hmmm, not really. I just know some moves for self defense."
Silence passed. The only sound around were from the gushing waterfall and their breathing.
"My brother and I took lessons when I'm around fourteen."
Erika moaned.
"I've never seen your brother."
"I'll let you two meet but be careful, you might fall."
Erika smiled. "Are you selling me to him?"
'I like you, dummy.'
Andy slightly laughed. "I'm just warning you."
"Well, I'm not into older men."
'I'm not even into men in the first place.'
"Who knows when you met my brother..." Andy teasingly insisted.
Erika elbowed her on the side. "I have someone I like already."
Andy flinched but Erika didn't notice it.
"Let's sleep." Andy suggested.
Erika moved to face Andy but the girl tightened up her hold on her.
"Let's sleep." Andy repeated.

The Vow
Ever since Aster’s mother died, home no longer feels like home.

So when a letter from the royal family arrives, inviting her to stay in the palace, Aster agrees. She’s only been to the palace once, a memory she’s replayed countless times in her head, during her first fateful encounter with her fiancé. But when she comes face to face with Florian once more, he’s cold and apathetic; a far cry from the boy she used to dream of. As Aster struggles to come to terms with Florian’s new demeanour, life in the palace reveals more than it’s rose covered façade.
