THE TRAGEDY II

"Maya, one of those guests called for you again." a woman's voice came from outside her house and informed her. "Were you flirting with them again?" There was disdain and disgust in her voice but Maya remained quiet. "Can you hear me? Are you there?"

Maya flinched and looked up to meet Ralph's eyes. She looked pleading but he didn't know what for. In the end, she still went out.

Normally, Maya would go back home to bring him food around six in the evening but this time, it's already seven and she wasn't around yet. Ralph felt bad premonition. His wounds were still painful but they weren't bleeding that much. Maya was really good in taking care of him.
