He was angry

===country U, one and half year ago===

It was winter in country U. Winter there was cold and snowing, some time it could be very cold, bitterly cold. But for Alice, it was a warm winter. Her heart was very warm because she had a warm man that accompanied her, cared about her and the one that she also love.

Being with him, made her day much more easy and cheerful. she had her first wonderful Christmas and new year. Her dull lunar new year also turned to be a one bright that year, it was really bring joy and prosperous time.

She finished her university and graduated in April. Her graduation day was on friday and during afternoon office hour, Nick promised her that he would attend her graduation ceremony. But, he was very busy. He assisted other team to deal with unstable system for months on top of this own responsibility. He had been come home very late for the last 10 days, he even worked on the weekend as well.

Alice was hopping he would be able to come on her important day. She wished once in her life time, she could share her happiness with her beloved one. Nick promised he would do his best to come to her graduation ceremony. Of course, she would be sad if he didn't come , but she put her self on his shoe and she wouldn't blamed him . During the ceremony, She searched for his glimpse but she failed.

She was abit gloomy but she was thrilled when she saw him standing outside the building after the ceremony ended.

He smiled brightly while his hand were on his back. She dashed toward him, but stopped few steps infront of him

"Congratulation dear"He kissed her and gave her a bouquet that he hid before

"thank you" Alice accepted the bouquet cheerfully.

" I though you didn't come".

" sorry , I was late. But I managed to see on the stage"

"Really?"she doubt him, her eyes had been hunted for him with no success.

Nick shown her the picture he took, She was over the moon.

"are you happy now ?" Nick kissed her then they took few selfie.

" hi Alice.., congratulation" A girl approached them.

"Hi, I am liz. Alice friends" she introduced her self to nick, she had interest at nick.

Alice frowned "He is my boyfriend"

She hugged nick arm protectively "Darling, They are waiting for us" she dragged him away.

Nick was amazed "Hey, she is your friend. don't be so jealous?"

"so, do you like her to accompany you ? She is very famous and has alot of experience with man, different from me. do you want to try her?" Alice was exploded.

"What do you take me as ?" Nick frowned, he was disappointed and confused. He didn't do anything, why she was agry at him. However, was her graduation, he tried to forget her bad attitude.

He took her to a fancy restaurant for dinner. On his graduation day, his parents arranged a family dinner then they had a small party with his friends and family friends. He wanted to do the same for her as well.

" Why did you take me here ? I don't want you to spend your limited fund" her mood was bad. Her unsettle feeling became worst.

"Alice ?!"

"what ? it's true that you have spent your fortune for me. why ? what do you want from me?"

"Alice, you are unbelievable.. you are insa- "Nick managed to stop him self for speak out the bad word. He didn't want to lost his cool again, so left the restaurant and went home by him self.

Alice drank water that had been served in front of her. She closed her eyes to pull her self together then left the restaurant. she was looking for him outside but she could not find him, he left her. It was the first time he did it, he never ignored her, he was always there next to her even when they was not familiar with each other "did he really angry at me? had I gone to far ? what did I act like this?" She didn't recognise her self.

As soon as she arrived home, she wished to offer her apology but she was reluctant. She waited for him to approach her first, she was confident that he would talk to her first like he always did before.

It was midnight when nick went out from his room. He noticed her sat on the sofa but he ignored her. He didn't even glance at her, he went to kitchen rightaway.

She staggered, she knew that he was really upset.

Nick took a pack of breakfast liquid and drank it, and went back to his room.

Alice was scare, She was afraid that he would break up with her, she worried he hated her. She could stand it anymore. Just before Nick opened his room door,

She dashed toward him. She hugged his waist thighly from behind and wept.

"I am sorry, I really sorry. please forgive me"

Nick tried to unlock her hand from his waist, but she was tighten it "please forgive me, please .."

Nick closed his eyes "Why did you say those nasty words to me ?"

"I don't know. really don't know. I was scare, I was afraid that you will leave me for her. I don't know why I behave like this.."

She released his waist, she was squat down while cyring. she covered her eyes and mumbled to her self "she will take you away from me. you and her will scheme on my backback..."
