Burn

Chapter 14

Riza's POV

"Wait, its our day off, isn't it?," he said.

I smiled a little, but inside me, it's more than a smile. "And what are we going to do now?"

"Uhmmmm maybe let's hung out for a little while."

Central headquarters
Maria's POV

They were together the whole night. The colonel's in love with her. What else would I expect?

My feet can't stop walking around the office.

It's already 10:00 am but he's still not here. Where is he? I know that he is lazy but never been late.

"Ahhm 2nd Lt. Ross?," I was snapped out by a guy near me.

"Oh 2nd Lt. Breda you're here."

"I've been watching you for about 10 minutes already...," he smirked, "if you are thinking why he's not around, it's because it's he's day off."

Kein's POV

Oh! It's their day off!

I looked at 2nd Lt. Ross. I could see from her face that she's worried from last night until today. The colonel and First Lt. Hawkeye gone missing. The fuhrer remained calm. Nobody knows if they're still together or not.

"2nd Lt. Ross, have you been contacted by the Colonel last night?"

Maria's POV

'No! He didn't contacted me yet.' How could I admit that to them.

"The Colonel is fine with the hawkeye. There's nothing to be bothered with.," the muscled man barged in.

"Good morning Major Armstrong.," we saluted.

"The lieutenant looks pale. Are you sick? Maybe you should take some rest.," he grabbed my shoulder.

"No no, I'm fine."

He put his palm on my forehead, "I think she needs a rest day too. Go to the Colonel, he supposed to be the one taking care of you.," he declared.

"Bbut...."

Riza's POV

We decided to go to the market and buy some fruits since I've got no stocks on the ref.

The vendor gave me the fruits that I bought, "What a lovely couple? You have a caring husband huh!"

I chuckled and smiled a little.

"Are you done?," he asked.

"Yeah! Sorry for bothering you for things like this!," we continue walking.

"It's fine with me to escort my subordinate once in a while."

"Let's go home!"

...............
Maria's POV

'Yeah! Maybe they're right. I should take some rest. Being Col. Mustang's assistant is really a hectic task.'

"Let's go home!," a sound of a happy woman said.

But I was surprised when I saw who's with her and who is she. So it's confirmed! They're still together not just from last night but 'till now.

The worst case is that they saw me. I don't know what to react, what to do, nor what to say. Last night, I was lucky that they didn't notice me. That they didn't saw the sadness in me. That I was hurt. But now, what now? What should I do???? 

I'm in pain for the scenarios seeing him happy because of someone else, that one and only person is always the reason of his smiles.
