"Hey. You're my patient right? So why the hell you're the one that always comfort me?"

Arfa memandang aku lama disebabkan soalan luar alam aku tu.

Ye lah.

Because 'dad' gave the entire family that survive in that event yesterday 3 whole weeks holiday, I don't even know what to do right now.

'Cause selalunya kalau bukan disebabkan bussiness dengan family, aku kene bekerja kat hospital. But....Arfan tawarkan diri dia untuk jaga hospital aku buat sementara waktu disebabkan hospital di mana tempat dia bekerja sebelum ni terbakar.

Yeah.....Terbakar.

Agh!!! Siapa je yang psycho sangat nak bakar hospital?

But thank god no one die on the day of that event happened.

Yeah....I should make time to look into it later.

"I don't know. Why are you asking me? You're the doctor here."

Mendengarkan jawapan Arfa, sekali lagi kami berdua terdiam.

"Hey. I've been meaning to ask but....kau tak pernah sambung belajar ke after graduate high school?"

"You have my personal info right?"

Ugh! What the hell is wrong with this woman today? I mean baru je semalam aku dan dia berbaik. You know....holding hands and stuff.

And now.... She just answer my question with her cold face while reading a book?

"Hah......okay, Arfa. What's wrong?"

"Nothing in particular."

"Nothing? Stop with that nonsense and just tell me."

"Okay. Fine. You want to talk? Let's talk!"

Bukunya dah diletak ke tepi.

"First. Why the hell you're letting my dad in last night? Second, and you even gave him a lot of money in order to get him out of the house but berkira sangat kalau aku yang mintak. Third, you f*cking wh0re. Fourth-"

"Woah....ok ok. Stop right there. First, if I didn't get your dad in into the house last night, he will make more ruckus 'cause he won't stop asking for your money in front of our house. Second, I've already answered the question as it was involved your money in the first question and besides....you rarely ask for my money before."

Arfa masih mendiamkan dirinya. Menunggu aku untuk memberi alasan sampai habis.

"Third, how am I even a wh0re?"

"Hahhhhh....It's so obvious. After the incident with my dad, you asked me to stay at Hayden's house just for the night and when I came back untuk ambil barang tertinggal, I saw many. I mean literally many women in your house."

* * *

Arfa;

Mendengarkan jawapan aku, Hattar terdiam sekejap sebelum lelaki ni tergelak.

"So you saw?"

"Of course I saw!!"

"But we're not even dating. How come you're so jealous?"

Ewww....jealous? Of you?

Mendengarkan statement Hattar berjaya membuatkan aku membentuk reaksi muka yang paling buruk sekarang ni.

"Damn...you hate me that much?"

Aku mengangguk.

"Then why you're getting mad over nothing?"

"Okay. First because you said it's our home. Second because I saw one of those women going into my room."

"Okay first...."

Hattar meletakkan tangannya ke atas kedua-dua belah sisi kerusi di mana aku tengah duduk ni lalu menarik kerusi ni dekat ke arahnya.

Hampir gugur jantung aku bila lelaki ni buat action di luar alam.

".....It's definitely our home. Second, I already mad at her bacause of her stupid action. Third, it's because all of them are my family's contract partner. You already know what's going on inside my family right? So my dad asked me to renew our family contract with those women's family last night. And....before you giving me any further question, my dad gave me those women 'cause he thought I need to find a partner 'cause I already turned 28 this year."

Aku terdiam.

"So....how's Ariq?"

"Damn....you want to change the topic? Okay fine. He's doing better now."

"Can't you guys just.....left your family and start a new life? I mean-"

"Arfa. It's too late now. Even aku keluar dari family aku sekalipun, they alreday know who you are and will do anything with you to threatened me to come back to that family. Same goes to Ariq and Hayden."

"But Hayden's dad is already gone right? So dia bole-"

"No. He still has a contract with our family."

Right....I forgot about all those contract stuff.

Hah.....

"Habis tu macam mana? Tak kanlah kau nak hidup macam ni setiap hari? Is even killing people has become your habit?"

"No! Literally no."

Yeah. Hattar menjawab soalan aku dengan serta-merta yang mana memang meyakinkan aku yang lelaki ni lansung tak nak hidup dengan membunuh orang sebagai sumber utama wang bagi hidupnya lagi.

"Okay. I have a plan. How about we wait for Ariq's recovery first and think of how to get out from your....psychotic family later."

"Hah....."

Lelaki tu mengeluh perlahan lalu meraup mukanya sebelum perlahan-lahan kedua-dua belah tangannya tu ditekup ke mulutnya.

"I don't know Arfa. I don't know anything anymore."
