Chapter 77: 77. Old Wounds

Anna who was left alone, burst into tears, her body fell on the pavement, along with the rain that fell on the ground.

Until a few minutes passed, ignoring the gazes of passing motorists, Anna slowly rose from her position, her body already drenched by the rain. Starting to walk through limping, holding back the pain inflicted by Brian.

Leo who still hadn't moved from his place, frowned when he saw the way the woman was walking a little limp, there was a hint of curiosity about everything he had witnessed, even though he didn't know what was happening in the car, but only saw her condition had made him very sure that something bad had happened.

Waiting for Anna to disappear at the intersection, Leo started to hit the gas, leaving the place. It was already eleven o'clock in the evening, Anna entered the home yard with a very messy appearance because she didn't want to disturb Naila and Dave, she moved quietly into the house. After bathing and changing the clothes she wore, he treated the wounds on her lips, as well as the wounds on her thighs.

Suddenly she remembered Devan's gift that she had not opened at all, immediately Anna grabbed her bag and took out a small tote bag from there.

"Huh? Medicine?" Anna took out the contents one by one along with a small piece of paper containing the recipe.

Anna shrugged and put the drugs on the table, then reached into the bag again, took out her cell phone.

Check it out briefly before going back to rest. Because tomorrow she had to go back to work, hoping that when she woke up in the morning, the bruises on her cheeks and lips would be gone.

Devan's house

"You sleep in my room," Devan invited Byanca to speak for the first time since Leo and Anna left.

Currently, they are in Devan's workroom, the man is still busy with the monitor screen in front of him while Byanca is relaxing on the long sofa on the other side of the room.

Hearing the man talks to her, Byanca immediately said, "N-no, I'll wait for you to finish work," She then put down the cell phone in her hand.

"I don't want my mother to be angry with me if you get sick after staying here," said Devan without turning to the woman at all.

"I sleep in the guest room," Byanca replied.

"There are no other rooms in this house, only mine."

Instantly a blush appeared on Byanca's cheeks.

"B-but..."

"Isn't this what you wanted?" cut Devan.

"Sleep, it's late. I'm still busy," he added.

"All right," replied Byanca slowly standing up, walking towards Devan's room with a smile on her lips. It turned out that the man had not changed at all, still very considerate and caring for her. Although a little cold and flat, she was sure that the man would return to her grasp with time.

Until the night was getting late, Byanca who had been sleeping soundly was awakened by the sound of the door closing, the corner of her eye saw Devan's reflection even though it was only for a split second.

Immediately she got up and chased the man.

"Devan," she called.

"Devan, where are you going?" Asked Byanca when she saw the man coming down the stairs.

"None of your affairs," Devan replied without turning his head.

"Let me follow you," Byanca said trying to catch up to the man.

Devan's reflex stopped his steps then turned around.

"Watch your attitude, I did allow you to stay at my house, but that doesn't mean you can act as you want."

"I'm doing this because of my mother, not because of anyone," Devan added and resumed walking towards the door.

"Are you still mad at me?" shouted Byanca.

"Angry? For what?"

"Devan, I'm sorry for that time. I promise not to do it again," shouted Byanca trying to catch up with Devan, but the man had disappeared behind the door. Makes her groan and very annoyed.

Stomping her feet on the floor, Byanca returned to Devan's room.

It was already two o'clock in the morning, Devan drove his car in the middle of the glittering city without a clear purpose.

"Where are you now?" Devan is talking to someone on the phone.

"At home, why?"

Hearing the answer from the other side, Devan immediately ended the call unilaterally. The one the man had just spoken to was his cousin, Leo.

While on the other hand, Leo, who had just laid down on the bed, just chuckled. It was a very rare occurrence if Devan contacted him first.

Putting his phone back on the nightstand, Leo prepared for bed. His body was very tired. Since earlier his focus was very disturbed. To be honest, he regretted taking Anna with him because thanks to that woman, the burden on his mind are now increasing. He didn't know, it's just happened.

Too many times, things he shouldn't be thinking about refuse to leave his mind, even if they're none of his affairs.

Until several minutes had passed, his eyes refused to cooperate, keeping him awake and very restless. He had tried various positions, but still the same.

Suddenly the sound of the bell ringing made him reflexively take a sitting position.

"Who's visiting at this time of night?" He muttered then got off the bed and walked outside.

Opening the door, Leo instantly froze on the spot with a surprised expression.

"I will sleep here." Yes, the figure standing in front of Leo right now is Devan.

"I'm not a ghost, your expression is very exaggerated," he said again immediately entered, walking towards Leo's room.

"Devan..."

"Devan, what happened? How come you are here? No, I mean what are you doing here?"

"Are you deaf?" Devan continued to walk without slowing down one bit.

"Where's Byanca? Isn't that woman with you?"

Devan didn't respond, the man immediately lay relaxed on Leo's bed as if he didn't care about his cousin's existence.

"Tsk, at least you ask me permission first," said Leo, lying down next to Devan after placing the barrier bolster in the middle.

"You fought with Byanca?" Leo asked again, but there was silence. There was no response from Devan.

"So you left that woman in your house?"

"Did Byanca know you were staying here?" Leo asked in succession.

"Shut up and sleep. Stop babbling," said Devan turning his back to Leo.

Leo chuckled at his cousin's response.

"Also, for tonight you just sleep on the sofa. I don't like someone in the same bed as me," Devan said again making Leo gape.

"I should have said that. Not you," Leo replied.

Devan didn't respond, the man then grabbed Leo's pillow and covered his head.

Leo immediately got up from his position, "Because I have a very good attitude, then for tonight I let you sleep in my bed," he said then got off from there.

Actually, without Devan asking, he will do just that. Leo lay down next to Devan a few minutes ago because he wanted to invite his cousin to talk casually, maybe… from heart to heart?

But seeing his reaction, make him stop his intention.

Lying on the sofa in the room, Leo didn't fall asleep right away, his eyes focused on the ceiling room, occasionally glancing at Devan, just to make sure he was sleeping? Because he knows that Devan has a very severe sleep disorder.
