8 Unexpected fact

After making sure she was dressed neatly, Gea rushed out of the room across the living room to the main door in the living room and then opened it.

"Gosh, Alexa!" Gea was surprised to see the condition of her friend who was soaking wet. "How did you get so wet? It doesn't look like it's raining outside?"

Alexa didn't have time to answer, but Gea turned surprised to see Melvin behind her. "Aren't you the man who helped me bring my best friend last night?"

Melvin just nodded with a flat look.

"How did you two get together again?" asked Gea still surprised.

"Gea, he is a client of my boss. I just fell into the pool while I was having a meeting at a restaurant that has swimming pool facilities," Alexa explained then glanced at Melvin who was silent with his arms crossed. "And he helped me."

Gea nodded in understanding and had a smile on her lips as if finding something between Alexa and Melvin. 'They match,' she thought.

Drettt... Drettt...

His smartphone rings. Melvin immediately reached into his trouser pocket to reach for the sophisticated object and saw an incoming call from his father.

"Hello, dad," said Melvin when he was connected to his father.

" ... "

"Yeah okay. I'll be there soon," he said occasionally glancing at Alexa and Gea who were watching him.

The phone connection is disconnected. Melvin returned his focus to look at Gea and Alexa. "Looks like I have to go now because I have urgent business."

"Eh yes ... be careful. Thank you for taking me here," said Alexa with an awkward smile.

Melvin just nodded and looked down at the suitcase beside him. "Here's your suitcase."

Alexa nodded and thanked again until Melvin left the apartment. She rushed into the apartment and stopped in the living room.

"You have to change before you'll catch a cold," Gea exclaimed but remembered that Bastian was under her bed. if Alexa takes a shower, that time can be used for him to get out under the bed.

Alexa walked into Gea's room carrying her suitcase because that was the only room she used often while the other rooms were empty.

"Alexa," Gea called, hurriedly approaching Alexa.

"What?" asked Alexa.

"Your body is drenched and you are wet from being exposed to the swimming pool water. It's better if you take a shower together, it will be much better for your health especially when you're dizzy, right?" Ghea is looking for excuses.

"Looks like I have to take a shower," Alexa said then continued walking towards the room while Gea continued to follow her with a sense of trepidation, thinking about what if Bastian wasn't under the bed anymore.

Arriving at Gea's room, Alexa took off Melvin's suit that she was still wearing earlier, then put it on a clothes hanger mounted on a plain white wall. the girl did not rush to the bathroom, opened her suitcase to get clothes while Gea was even more uncomfortable because she didn't go to the bathroom right away.

"You'd better take a shower immediately, I'll take the clothes for you," said Gea, preventing Alexa from opening the suitcase.

"I have to make sure that what the rented owner packs are all my clothes. I'm annoyed with her. Could it be ... she didn't put all my clothes in here. that means she stole my clothes which are not too expensive but quite stylish and contemporary, different from the clothes that her daughter often wears are very old-fashioned." Alexa kept opening the suitcase while imagining how upset she was that she was being kicked out inexplicably. ah, but that's also her fault for always being absent when billed.

"As I thought. She was so fussy she stole my clothes. Looks like I'll have to go over there and pick them up again!" Alexa chuckled in annoyance when she found that there were only a few clothes in her suitcase. towels, toiletries, and make-up are still left in the rented room.

"Ah, yes that's true. I will accompany you there. Therefore, you must take a shower immediately, then we will go there while looking for the lunch menu," Gea continued to influence Alexa to immediately go to the bathroom he looked so uncomfortable imagining how stuffy Bastian was under the bed which she had not swept for several days. her lover must be stuffy with dust.

"I don't have much money. there is only Rp. 200.000 in my wallet to buy food every lunch. Are you going to treat me?" Alexa asked with a smirk. Gosh, she's too many pleasantries while her friend wants her to go to the bathroom immediately.

"Ah, that's an easy matter I'll treat you until you're full. Now, you hurry up and take a shower or you'll get sick from continuing to wear these wet clothes. You look bad!" Gea looked at Alexa so seriously that her brows furrowed.

"Yeah, I'm really bad. What's more…I met a man who turned out to help me when I was drunk. I'm so embarrassed and nervous because you said I once praised him like a prince and forbade him to come home." Alexa continued to talk about the matter about her meeting with Melvin.

under Bastian holding back the urge to cough because of the dust. He was in a prone position and glanced at the 4 legs visible on the edge of the bed. It must be Gea's feet as well as Alexa's. 'damn they're even busy chatting, I might be short of breath here,' he thought annoyed.

After a few moments of persuasion, finally Gea managed to make Alexa rush to the bathroom. she immediately crouched down looking at the bottom and waved her hand. "Get out quickly. she's in the shower!"

Bastian scrambled to crawl out of the very stuffy pit. when he got outside, he dusted off his shirt which was covered in dust while Gea also came over to help clean his body.

"Honey, next time you have to be diligent in sweeping the floor under the room too," Bastian muttered.

"Who would have thought that the floor under this room would be your hiding place. Usually, I'll clean it every two weeks if I'm not lazy," said Gea in a spoiled tone.

"Don't be too lazy," Bastian exclaimed.

"Just hire a maid then. Or you are looking for a more luxurious apartment. I'm bored here." Gea jumped.

Bastian sighed, then sat on the edge of the bed. He glanced at the bathroom which was still tightly closed. "When will your friend leave here?" he asked.

"Who knows. I hope you will allow her to stay here. I feel sorry for her. she is very difficult economically while her mother is seriously ill," replied Gea but seemed to show sympathy for Alexa.

Bastian nodded his head. "Then I'll ask her to stay here as a maid."

"Huh. Don't?" Gea immediately refused. she still wasn't ready if Alexa found out that he was someone's husband's lover. Eh, but... Doesn't Alexa know who Bastian is? of course he wouldn't know that Bastian was already married.

Check...

Suddenly the bathroom door opened. Gea was enjoying chatting with Bastian and she didn't want to hide about Bastian from Alexa.

Alexa came out of the bathroom wearing only a white bathrobe with a black butterfly on the chest. Her eyes widened when she found the person who was with Gea was very familiar to her.

"Mr. Bastian?"

"You?" Bastian was surprised to see Alexa. "So, Alexa is you?"

"Why are you here?" Alexa asked awkwardly. she grabbed herself so that the bathrobe was tightly attached. She looked sexy at that time because her thighs were slightly visible. Gea was just amazed that Bastian and Alexa seemed to know each other.
