50 Chaotic Feelings
For a week, two weeks, Arthur didn’t come to see Kalea at all and stay at the girl’s penthouse. Arthur said lately that his work schedule was very busy and there was no time to see Kalea. The brunette-haired girl was okay, even calmed down when Arthur wasn’t around.
Arthur was just making excuses. He still regularly goes and has fun at the club and even often meets Zeline there. And sometimes Dariel accompanies him when he’s not busy and there’s no night shift.
Tonight, Arthur again unwinds at the entertainment venue, accompanied by Zeline. With the beat of the music that echoed throughout the club, he had no interest in dancing or looking for prey that he could pounce on or vent his lust for the sexy women who were scattered there. He stared blankly at the bustling scene of the people having fun there. All Arthur did was gulp down the wine he had already finished four bottles of.
“Hey, I know you’re a good drinker, but I don’t want to hear anymore if you get drunk and rape Kalea,” Zeline scolded, crossing her arms over her chest. She noticed Arthur who was not as usual, Arthur looked worried that she couldn’t have fun and instead watched the thirty-two year old man.
“Don’t worry,” Arthur said simply.
“You can die if you get drunk while driving.”
“Wow, it seems Zeline is really worried about me. Then I’ll just stay at your place,” Arthur teased while smiling lopsidedly at the blonde girl.
Zeline looked at Arthur with disdain. “Ew, I don’t want to,” she flatly refused, hurting Arthur’s small and fragile heart.
“Doesn’t Lea know you still come here often?” Zeline asked to change the topic. Because seeing Arthur in the club was when the man was caught by Kalea.
.....
“Even if she finds out, she has no right to forbid me from doing what I want,” Arthur replied coldly. Zeline was a little surprised, a lot of presumptions were running in her brain at this time. “She couldn’t possibly be curious about what I was doing anyway,” the man continued.
“Did you fight with her?” Zeline asked again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtArthur chuckled amused, he took another sip of wine and now straight from the bottle. “Do we look like that? Did Lea tell you something?”
“Not at all, we’re not close after all. Actually, I don’t fucking care, but seeing your current condition makes me pity,” Zeline sneered, looking at Arthur up and down. The man was still handsome and sexy, but his face still looked tired, and there were so many thoughts that made Arthur dizzy.
“Don’t mind me, you better go have fun looking for a rich guy,” Arthur replied casually. His face was starting to turn red from the effects of the alcohol but he was still fully conscious. Four bottles alone had not been able to knock him unconscious like that time.
“Are Kalea’s friends teasing you?” Zeline asked the point. Arthur paused, he turned to the blonde girl.
“How do you know?”
Zeline laughed scornfully because her guess was right. “I’ve watched it many times, and it’s very predictable,” Zeline replied, a slight smirk etched on the blonde girl’s sexy lips.
Arthur took a deep breath, remembering that it made his head spin. This was also the reason he had not come to see Kalea until these two weeks. He is lazy, let alone having to meet a cute girl, Kalea’s best friend. Even though Aluna still contacted him and Arthur was still serving the girl. Arthur was still a little annoyed with Kalea because she trusted her best friend too much. He didn’t want to fight with Kalea and decided to keep his distance for a while.
Even though Arthur met Kalea to unwind, he was even more tired when he came there.
“Then why are you depressed, Arthur? Don’t you really enjoy all the women who come to you? After all, Aluna is beautiful, even though I’m still the most beautiful,” Zeline said, half boasting.
“Zeline, you know, right? If I deal with women of the type like Luna too often, my energy and patience will run out,” Arthur replied with an annoyed snort.
Zeline laughed crisply, she nodded in understanding. Even though Arthur is a womanizer, he still has the ideal type and a safe type that can last a long time with Arthur. Arthur Jefferson was difficult to understand and very picky.
“So what are you going to do?” Zeline asked.
“Hm? Nothing.”
Zeline raised an eyebrow in surprise. “Nothing? Aren’t you fed up with that girl?
A lopsided smile was clearly printed on the handsome face of the man who had a very sweet smile. “My curiosity has not been exhausted, so I’ll continue to enjoy it,” Arthur said, making Zeline roll her eyes lazily.
“One more question.”
“What? You ask a lot of questions tonight, do you want to be a journalist?” Arthur said.
The corner of Zeline’s lips twitched, very annoyed. “Fuck you. Have you had sex with Luna? Or will you soon be?”
Arthur didn’t answer, he just smiled meaningfully and took another sip of his wine until there was nothing left.
“Answer me, old man!”
“I’m not old, brat!”

Class for today was over, Kalea tidied up her books and put them in her bag. She turned to Aluna, who was talking with her friends while applying light makeup to the girl’s beautiful face. Until now, Kalea has still looked modest while on campus. And no one knows about Kalea’s life as a sugar baby. She was a little relieved and grateful that Aluna really kept her promise not to tell anyone about it.
“Luna,” Kalea called, making Aluna and her other friends stop talking and turn to Kalea.
“Yes? What’s wrong, Lea?”
“A-are you coming ...” Kalea swallowed hard saliva, she couldn’t possibly say apartment or penthouse in front of Aluna’s friends. What a fool, she shouldn’t have asked now.
“Oh! Sorry, Lea! Today is Violet’s birthday, so we’re going to celebrate. Would you like to join? Violet, can my best friend come too?” Aluna asked the girl with pink and black hair with a peek a boo hairstyle. She also understood what Kalea meant and didn’t let Kalea tell her any further.
Kalea looked at Violet and Aluna’s friends, who exchanged glances and looked doubtful if Kalea went with them. “A-ah, it’s okay! I still have other activities,” Kalea said quickly, she smiled bitterly. Kalea doesn’t want to make someone’s birthday party uncomfortable because of her presence. Aluna’s friends are very fashionable and beautiful, they look like they are in a different class. And Kalea thought she couldn’t possibly be friends with people like them. Moreover, her appearance is very simple on campus.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Really? Do you still have classes?” Aluna asked.
“Y-yes and happy birthday, Violet,” Kalea said with a faint smile.
“Oh, thank you, Kalea!”
Kalea finally left the class alone and went to the class she was going to teach. Explain the material and give assignments to them. The class was over in two hours, Kalea breathed a sigh of relief and was grateful that it went smoothly and was able to answer the questions the children put to her. She also reported to Garren how the class was today and informed him that she had carried out all of Garren’s orders. The class was empty, only her left, Kalea decided to leave the class and walked out of campus.
She kept staring at the phone screen as if she was waiting for a notification from someone. Arthur hadn’t replied to her messages in almost a week, even though the last message wasn’t that important. However, even if it wasn’t important, usually Arthur would usually still send messages.
Kalea shook her head quickly, driving away her frantic thoughts. “I have to think positively, he must really be very busy. Besides, why have I been thinking about him lately, anyway,” Kalea mumbled suddenly becoming annoyed because the image of Arthur’s stupid and lecherous face just appeared in her brain.
Not only Arthur, Aluna no longer comes to play in her apartment. In the deepest part of Kalea’s heart, she is actually a little lonely because she is used to being accompanied by Aluna and now she has to feel that loneliness again.
“I’d better go to the city library,” Kalea said in a monologue. After waiting at the bus stop, the bus finally arrived. The girl immediately boarded the public transportation and decided to sit in the back near the window. She didn’t want to go straight home and see the condition of her empty and cold apartment, without anyone to accompany her.
However, suddenly her thoughts occurred to her mom, Freya. It had been a long time since she had visited Freya and had even forgotten the woman who had given birth to her and given her affection, even though she almost never felt that way again. Kalea cursed herself and quickly got up from her seat to get off at the bus stop near her house. Before that, she decided to go to the supermarket to buy groceries and some instant food stock because she knew Freya would only order unhealthy food. Her footsteps stopped at the alcohol line, she suddenly remembered the hard times when she thought she had little money and couldn’t afford alcohol for her mom.
However, now she could buy what her mom wanted. No, Kalea still didn’t want Freya to consume too much of the drink. She still wants to live longer with her mom. “Why is it so hard to separate you from my mom,” Kalea muttered quietly, her heart tightening. She always prayed that her mom could reduce alcohol or at least be willing to check her body at the hospital. Kalea is afraid of an unknown disease and continues to eat away at her mom’s body. However, Freya is really difficult, even to leave the house Freya doesn’t want to.
Kalea took a deep breath and walked back to the cashier to count all her groceries.
“Thank you for shopping here!”
Kalea just nodded and smiled faintly before she left the supermarket. She checked her cell phone, it was seven in the evening and it was time for dinner. She walked a little faster to get home as soon as possible.
“Oh, Kalea?”
Kalea stopped her steps when someone just called her name. She turned back and gave the person a faint smile.
