After having breakfast together, Raymond said goodbye to Monica to immediately leave for the airport because the scheduled flight to London would arrive at 12:30 WIB.
"I'll walk you to the front," Monica said with a nervous smile.
Raymond nodded and immediately walked out of Monica's apartment unit, followed by Monica who was still wearing casual and modest clothes.
"Monica," Raymond called as he walked down the corridor to the elevator.
"Yes, why?" she asked.
"I'll be gone in a while, about three or four months. Will you miss me?"
"Of course not," Monica replied, smiling sarcastically. "Why miss someone's boyfriend? That's not in my nature at all."
"Oh? what if I don't date Kareen anymore, will you miss me?" Raymond asked again.
"I don't know, your question is so unimportant," Monica replied curtly, then entered the open elevator with Raymond following.
Raymond pressed the button for the ground floor. Then the elevator closed with Raymond alone with Monica.
The atmosphere is so quiet. Monica was silent and relaxed, leaning her back against the wall with a forward gaze, while Raymond just stared at Monica which made him even angrier. A naturally beautiful face with naturally pink lips, made him want to crush those lips right now.
"To hell with people's boyfriend status!"
Raymond growled then approached Monica by pressing her against the wall and immediately kissed her lips which had been teasing her faith. The kiss was so aggressive that Raymond grabbed Monica's hands and put them on top of her head that she couldn't struggle.
"Ehm, Raymond!!" Monica turned her head away but Raymond continued to urge her, looking into her face and kissing her lips aggressively.
Monica, who has had a long-standing love for Raymond, slowly fell silent and resigned herself to the kiss. Her legs felt weak with her eyes closed and her heart beating wildly. She let Raymond's lips graze hiss, occasionally giving small bites and sighing.
suddenly the elevator door opened. Raymond immediately broke the kiss and turned to look ahead with a look full of regret. "Sorry, I couldn't help myself." "Go on and pretend this never happened," Monica shouted curtly.
"Aren't you going to walk me out?" Raymon asked, looking at Monica who looked like she was about to cry.
Instead of answering, Monica pushed Raymond out of the elevator and fell to the floor. She immediately pressed the number five button and looked at Raymond with teary eyes. 'You must think I'm a lowly girl,' she thought.
"Monica, I'm sorry," Raymond shouted as he stood up and tried to get back into the elevator, but the door was almost closed.
Raymond was silent with deep regret as he remembered that Monica seemed to hate him so much. "STUPID! I shouldn't have kissed her!"
Raymond chuckles in annoyance cursing his mistake for kissing Monica just like that. he immediately walked out of the building because if he came back, Monica would only hate him even more, remembering that she had immediately pushed him to the ground.

when she arrived at her apartment unit, Monica went straight to her room and threw herself on the bed. She cried while feeling her lips which felt a bit thick due to the aggressiveness of the kiss from Raymond.
"Why, why are you doing this when you belong to Kareen. You never gave any clarity between us, you never explained about your feelings for me, you only paid attention and even gave a kiss!"
Drett... drett...
her smartphone that was lying on the bed rang, Monica, reached for it and saw an incoming call from Raymond. Instead of answering, she threw the phone and it shattered on the floor.
"Fake giver of hope! You must have judged me very low!"
Monica continues to cry regretting what happened earlier. She didn't expect that Raymond dared to kiss her lips which no man had even touched. yes, because before that she always kept her distance every time she had a relationship with a man until she was single again until now, and Raymond haphazardly snatched that first kiss. Of course, the girl was very angry and disappointed.

After picking up some important things for herself, Kareen immediately returned to the car where Raymond's bodyguard was waiting for her and would take her wherever she was going."Let's go straight to Dean's house, but... Would you mind if we stopped by the boutique for a bit?" Kareen asked as she looked at Dany who was standing in front of the opened car door.
"No, Miss. I will obey all your orders because I am a special bodyguard for you," Dany replied with a flat look.
"Eh, yeah. I'm not used to being escorted like this. be normal to me, don't be so formal," Kareen exclaimed with an awkward smile.
"It's okay, Miss. I have to be respectful to you," replied Dany with a warm smile.
Karen sighed. "Well then, let's take me to the boutique."
"Okay, Miss."
Kareen immediately got into the car, so did Dany. They immediately headed for the boutique that Kareen pointed out.
___
After a few minutes of driving, Dany stopped at a white building with a translucent glass front facing it with large art writing reading "Liora boutique".
Kareen immediately got out of the car and Dany followed her. She felt uncomfortable because she was being followed and she came to do things that no one, including Dany, should know.
"Dany, you better wait here. This is a boutique exclusively for women. It's weird if you come in and I don't think in being escorted by a bodyguard as handsome as you," Kareen said with an awkward smile.
"Okay, I'll wait here," Dany replied flatly.
"Okay, I won't be too long either will only buy one blazer," said Kareen, then walked into the boutique.
Kareen walked to find the whereabouts of Siska who was waiting for her at the boutique. She looked for her friend among the many hanging women's clothes and the visitors who were quite busy because today was the weekend.
"Where is she?" Kareen mumbled as she continued walking until she stopped when her phone rang. She immediately answered the call which turned out to be from Siska.
"Hello, Siska. Where are you?" asked Kareen in surprise. sometimes she glanced outside to make sure no one was following her.
"I'm in the bathroom. Come here quickly," Siska called from the phone.
"Okay I'll be right there," said Kareen, then hung up the phone. She hurriedly walked to the bathroom to approach Siska who might have come just to give her ordered items, namely abortion medicines.
___
Dany who was outside glanced inside and no longer saw Kareen. 'I'll see how clever you are at committing crimes. What a venomous snake,' he thought with a cynical smile while imagining when he heard Kareen and Siska's conversation on the phone. Dany quietly installed an intercom that was always on and connected to the monitor in her room. He put it under the bed in the guest room where Kareen slept.. It could make him hear whatever Kareen said while in the room.
