Nightmare

City M

"Bitch like you, only pride that you are proud of, and chastity that I'm currently colonizing. Just accept it and don't fight too much, dear."

No, let me go!

Plaque!

"You shameless granddaughter. How dare you play dirty like this, what a shame."

Not! This isn't really what happened, listen to me!

Grip!

Plaque!

"When I said shut up, you shut up. You stubborn woman. Now just enjoy it, when my hands and mine pamper you. Don't run anymore."

Don't let me go!

Thump!

"Don't!!"

Hosh…. Hosh…. Hosh…

Creak!

"Gretta what's wrong?"

Gasp!

Someone who was called Gretta immediately turned around and looked at the woman who called her sadly, not to mention with a face that was now covered in sweat.

Dream?

Had she just woken up from sleep and been freed from dreamland?

But, why was the dream that had accompanied her to sleep replaced with a bad incident? Why were her memories also snatched away by the bad events of last night?

"No, it can't be," Gretta mumbled softly, staring at the blanket covering her, gripping her hair, which was still neat even when she woke up from a sleep like this.

Geana actually just came out of the room and even came back when she heard Gretta's screams which worried her.

Really, just hearing the screams of fear she was already worried, now she even saw the sweat that flooded that smooth face, made her worry only doubled.

Geana immediately approached Gretta and sat on the edge of the bed, she wiped the sweat without awkwardness and looked at the blue netra probing.

"Gretta, are you ok?" asked Geana carefully, trying not to surprise and frighten Gretta any more.

Gretta didn't answer immediately, but looked at Geana with quivering pupils and immediately bumped into her body and then hugged her tightly, whispering softly in Geana's ear.

Grip!

"No, I just had a bad dream, I'm sorry."

Geana understands that Gretta must have dreamed about that bad incident, not to mention last night she saw for herself Gretta's fear of men when she faced her friend, Chiko.

Ah! That's right, her friend already knew how she had met Gretta. She told the story without missing a beat and he received a blow to the head, after being lectured on how desperate she was to become a hero of the night.

She knew that Chiko was only worried about her. But, fortunately, even though she still remembers her from the start of coming to work until she goes home. She knew that now her friend understood and wanted to help, especially if there was something wrong with her.

You stupid Chiko, Geana cursed in her heart even though there was a small smile on her lips.

"It's okay, dreams are just sleeping flowers. Don't apologize to me like that," said Geana after a moment of silence when she remembered her friend, the bodyguard famous for his good looks.

"I must have surprised you."

"No, I really wanted to come in, I forgot something," Geana said lying as Gretta was still stubbornly apologizing to her.

After that, Gretta didn't make another sound, but tightened her embrace and Geana herself responded with a soothing rub on the back.

"Don't think about it anymore. It was just a dream, okay?" Geana added, hoping that Gretta would agree with what she said.

Yes, luckily Gretta confirmed what she said, even though it was only a small nod that she felt, and the hug wasn't as tight now as the first time Gretta bumped into her.

About a few minutes later, Gretta finally unraveled her embrace slowly. Then wiped her own sweat and looked at Geana who smiled slightly at her with a lowered face.

"How about you take a shower, Gretta? Then we have breakfast, we'll look outside together. Do you want it? Count on learning to get used to being in a crowd again. Come on!" added Geana with her seduction and invitation.

Gretta who heard it didn't answer immediately, but looked at Geana with eyes moving in fear. But, not long after a small nod, when she saw Geana's reassuring gaze.

That's right, she couldn't keep hiding like this. Who knows, she quickly normalizes and is not afraid of crowds, nor is she afraid when there are men standing around her.

"Okay, I will," Gretta replied in a squeaky voice, but it was clear enough for Geana to smile when she heard it.

"Good! Then you take a shower and after we leave, we eat ice cream. How about it?" Geana asked while raising and lowering her eyebrows, as if Gretta was a child who would light up when she heard the word 'ice cream' from her.

But, who would have thought, if Gretta, who lived in all kinds of things, actually nodded with a twinkle in her eyes when she heard the name of the cold desert.

Yes, Gretta used to be able to buy that cold food effortlessly. But, she was not allowed to be free to enjoy it at all.

She only eats healthy and expensive food and drinks. Then ice cream, don't expect it to be freely available to her.

"I want to! I want some ice cream. Thank you, Gea!" Gretta said excitedly.

Pfft…. Why is it cute like this, Geana thought to stop herself from laughing.

"You're welcome. Go! Go take a shower and get ready. You can wear clothes in the closet as freely as you like, whatever you can wear while it fits, okay?" clearly Geana again ordered and reminded me.

Gretta nodded still with the pleasure she felt. She even forgot the dream incident and is now getting better, though not completely.

"Umm, of course!"

"Yep! I'm going out first, later it's my turn to prepare. I have to do something first," said Geana as she got up from her seat.

"Fine," Gretta said curtly.

After that, Geana walked away from the bed, she headed for the exit and was about to open the door. However, just as her hand reached for the doorknob, a voice calling from Gretta made her turn her head back.

"Gea!"

"Yes, What is up?" Geana asked.

"That's, when are you coming home?" continued Gretta asked in an unpleasant and curious tone and looked at her with her face down, cursing her impudent question.

"Oh! I came home around 8 o'clock. Today the club is busy, usually at 6 it's already at the boarding house. He-he-he…."

Gretta lifted her face again when she heard Geana's explanation, not to mention a crisp chuckle that sounded relaxed. There was absolutely no look of anger or irritation on her face and she breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that my ignorant self has turned presumptuous, Gretta thought, grimacing.

"Okay, sorry for asking," said Gretta uncomfortably.

"It's okay, just relax Gretta. That's it! Hurry up and take a shower and get breakfast, I'm hungry," said Geana, changing the subject.

"Umm, okay," Gretta replied with a nod, then she watched in silence as the door finally opened and closed, leaving a thud that made her gasp for breath.

Slam!

Dear God, Gretta, you should understand where Gea works and what her working hours are like. You stupid.

Gretta cursed herself again in her heart, before finally getting out of bed to take a shower as Geana said. But, before she actually left the bed to take a shower. She took the time to tidy up the sheets, even though the results were not much and you could say it seemed like they had not been cleaned up.
