We have the right love at the wrong time

The next morning is Sunday and there is no work, but Alicia purposely woke up early to have a word with her husband. She sat on the bed as she gets ready her self. She has been thinking about this matter and she has made up her mind.

She will tell Dimitry about her and Ralph's past to avoid misunderstanding in the future!

Alicia is in deep thought when the bathroom's door opened.

She snapped back to her senses when she heard the sound of the door opening.

Dimitry came out of the bathroom half-naked while drying his hair with a piece of towel.

Alicia got up from the bed, " Honey," she called her husband.

Dimitry turned his head to his wife, "Hmmm?"

"Ah," Alicia looked doubtful, " I'm sorry, but may I have a word with you after you get a dress?" She asked.

"I'm sorry, honey, but I have an emergency meeting with the board this morning," Dimitry replied.

"Why won't we just talk now instead?" He suggested.

Alicia looked at Dimitry hesitantly. She is anxious inside and she doesn't know how to start the conversation.

'It's alright, Alicia, you can do it!""Don't waste this chance to tell him everything!' Alicia said inside, hoping to calm her self.

"I---" Alecia open her mouth to speak, but before she could even say her next words, Dimtry's phone suddenly rang!

Alicia and Dimitry turned their heads to the phone's direction, but Dimitry ignored it. He turned his head back to Alicia, " So, what were you saying?" He asked.

Alicia gulped, "I..."

Alicia was about to speak again but the phone rang again!

Alicia cleared her throat, "Why won't you just answer the call first?"

"It might be important," She suggested.

The phone's ringtone only made her more anxious!

"Alright," Dimitry agreed and then he walks to the table where he put his phone.

Dimitry took his phone and answered the call.

Alicia took a deep breath. Her hands are shaking and her limb felt weak because of the anxiousness that she felt inside.

Alicia silently waited for Dimitry to finish talking on the phone.

"Alright, I'll be there in thirty minutes," Alicia heard Dimitry said to the other line.

Dimitry ended the call and he put down his phone before he turned back to Alicia.

"I'm sorry honey, but I have to hurry and go to the hotel immediately," He said.

"Why?"

"What happened?" Alicia asked.

"Let's just talk tonight, alright?" Dimitry said and then he hurriedly went to his closet to get dress.

Alicia just sighs.

U Country.

It was already late at night but the roads are still busy and there are still a lot of people walking in the streets.

This scenario is not new to Angelie at all. She started to get used to it already.

There are many establishments in this city such as bars, clubs, and even spas open until 4 AM. Transportations, entertainment, goods, and services are available 20/7.

In and high-end apartment, Angelie was just done putting her night cream when she heard her phone ring.

"You have a call," Marcos said as he picks up his wife's phone and gave it to her.

"Thanks," Angelie said as she took her phone from Marcos's hand.

Angelie swiped the answer button and then she put it in her ear. "Yes, my best friend?" She answered excitedly.

Alicia couldn't help but smile when she heard Angelie's voice.

"How are you?" Angelie asked after a while.

"I'm good," Alicia replied.

"You should be good and healthy, you can't be sick because I am coming home next week!" Angelie said excitedly. It's been a few months since she moved with her husband in U Country and she already misses her best friend!

"You're coming home?!" Alicia asked in surprise.

"Yep!" Angelie replied, "But, it's just for a week, I already have a buyer for my apartment and I have to settle it personally," she added.

"Oh, that's good then!" Alicia said in excitement.

"So, why did you call, anyway?" Angelie asked after a while.

Alicia went silent and Angelie knew that there's something wrong!

"Let me guess," Angelie spoke again.

"Is that spoiled brat giving you a hard time again?" She asked.

"No," Alicia instantly replied. "It's not that," She added.

"What is it then?"

"Ange, It's..." Alicia paused to calm her self. It took her a few seconds before she spoke again, "It's Ralph," She finally said.

"Ralph," Angelie repeated.

"Why?"

"What about that jerk?" Alicia asked.

"He is here in the Capital City," Alicia replied.

"What?!" Angelie was a bit stunned!

"Why?"" I mean... What is he doing there?"

"I don't know," Alicia replied as she shook her head as if Angelie can see her.

"Wait, are you sure it was him?" Angelie asked doubtfully.

"Yes, I am sure,"

"Where did you see him?"

"Here in the mansion,"

"What?!" This time, Angelie's eyes went wide open!

"That guy has still had a gut to show himself after what he had done to you?!" Angelie has gone mad.

"Is he bothering you?"

"No," Alicia shook her head, " He is not bothering me, but I have a feeling that he is planning on something,"

"He is trying to be friends with Dimitry."

"W-What?!"

"Does Dimitry know about both of you?"

"No, not yet," Alicia replied in a faint voice.

"Why not, Alice?"

"You should have told him so that he is aware of the truth and he will be cautious with that jerk!" Angelie said.

"I tried to tell him, Ange, but he is busy," Alicia reasoned.

"You should tell him, Alice, no matter what,"

'Yes,' Alicia said inside.

She will not let that jerk ruin her life again!

Jin went to the study room where he used to do a tutor with Yumi.

Mr. Alcantara gave him permission to use the study room whenever he wants to.

Jin saw an interesting book and he pulled it out to take a look at it.

-------

Yumi raised her body from her bed and she sighs!

"Hffft..."

"Why am I feeling like this?"

"I am still upset about what I've witnessed the other day, but still missed him."

"I am really powerless when it comes to him," She mumbled.

Yumi got off her bed, she walks close to the window and took a peek outside hoping to see Jin in the garden, but she failed.

'Should I just talk to him and forgive him even if he did not ask for forgiveness?'

With that thought, Yumi decided to go out of her room and headed downstairs but she froze when she saw the slightly opened door in the study room.

Yumi sneaked a peek inside the study room out of curiosity, but she froze when she saw Jin, standing in front of the bookshelf while reading a book.

Jin turned his head to the door when he notices someone standing there. He froze when he saw Yumi standing on the door.

"Oh, It's...It's you," Yumi spoke in a faint voice.

Jin stared at Yumi for a few seconds, "Ennn..." He nodded as he pulled back his gaze from her.

Yumi took a step inside the study room and then she closed the door again. She walks to the other side of the room and pretended to search for a book on the bookshelf.

"Did you enjoy talking to him last night?" Jin suddenly spoke.

"Huh?!" Yumi looked at Jin who is standing with his back against her.

Jin revealed a faint smirk, " I can even hear your laughter in my room," He said with his gaze still on the book that he is holding.

Yumi pulled back her gaze as she took a deep breath, " Ah, You mean, Troy?" She said coldly.

Jin closed the book that he was reading, " Troy..." He repeated.

"So, that was his name," He mumbled.

"Do you like him already that's why you already forget your so-called feelings for me?" Jin asked Yumi with his cold gaze.

"Ha!" Yumi let out a short yet sarcastic laugh, " Why are you suddenly questioning me?" She asked with her raised brows.

"So what if I already like him?"

"So what if I already forget about my feelings for you?""It won't affect you anyway," Yumi said.

" I can't even expect you to like me," She added.

"What are you saying?" Jin turned to Yumi.

Yumi turned to Jin too and she looked at him with her teary eyes.

"Why won't you just be honest with me?" Yumi asked.

"You can just tell me straight forward if you have no plan to like me so that I won't expect anything from you!"

"You don't have to face slap me by showing your public affection with that girl!"

Jin froze when he heard Yumi's words.

"What are you saying?" He asked with his knitted brows.

"You will still pretend to know nothing?" Yumi asked sarcastically.

"Alright, I will just tell you, I saw you embracing that girl right in front of the mansion the other day!" Yumi said.

Jin's confused expression slowly changed, now, he understands what she was saying!

'It seems like she misunderstands me and Margaux!'

"I know, I am not in the right position to get jealous because we don't have a special relationship!" Yumi continued to speak.

"But you gave me hope Jin, you gave me false hope that perhaps, you were just afraid to get involved with me because of our life status but I was wrong---"

"I like you," Jin interrupted Yumi.
