12. Sulking

"You want to have yourself checked too? I see your soul is turning a bit."

Tara couldn't help but laugh after hearing the doctor's words. What was he saying? Did soul turn away? Damn, that's funny to hear. Meanwhile, Aldrick then glared at Tara and made the girl then cover her mouth and try to calm down again. Although it was clear that Tara was still holding back her laughter, Aldrick then turned his gaze to the doctor.

"She's a model. So looks always have to be good and that bump makes her less good on camera.

Nor seen."

"Not even with small bumps like that, Al. After all, the profession in the entertainment world is very different from reality. Every recording or picture taken only shows the external form and does not have a strong feeling about what kind of figure this model or artist is. Isn't it a fan who will continue to support their idol's every decision? And from what I can see, the fans will understand every decision. Isn't that right, Miss? Moreover, it's just a small wound. It won't destroy Litara's reputation immediately."

Tara nodded in agreement. "That's true. Even if I am seriously injured they will wish me the best for my recovery. Ah, but I don't want any bad luck either."

Aldrick was silent. Shouldn't the girl beside him be grateful because he was so kind enough to ask her for treatment? Then what is the reward for his good actions? Oh, come on really. This world is really funny with the contents of ignorant people.

Aldrick got up from his seat and walked away, leaving Tara with the doctor who just stared at him in confusion. Why again that guy?

"Looks like your husband is sulking. Go before he leaves you."

Tara laughed again with a nod of approval. But... Was it true that an Aldrick had a crush on him? It's nothing, it's just that he felt strange about the man's behavior. Tara immediately went to catch up with Aldrick after saying goodbye and thanking the doctor. Meanwhile, Aldrick continued to walk without looking back. He didn't care if Tara would stay there or follow him. Somehow he felt unappreciated now. Ah, it sucks today.

"You intend to leave me?" asked Tara who managed to balance Aldrick's footsteps and walk side by side with the man who was her husband.

Aldrick did not respond. He only caught a glimpse of Tara and then looked back ahead and kept walking. Ignoring Tara who looked at her strangely and occasionally saw her face open with one hand waving in front of her.

An annoyed Tara then blocked Aldrick's path, holding the man's chest to stop. "Okay I know you're upset with me, I'm sorry, and just act normal. You look worse this way."

Aldrick stared blankly at Tara, then turned his gaze to the two white hands holding his chest boldly. He let go of her hand and started walking again. Leaving Tara who took a deep breath because of her actions. Not annoyed, he just wanted to be a little rewarded with his actions even though it seemed excessive. You understand it's appreciated, don't you? At least she was grateful. Is it difficult? Let's just say he's childish, but that's what he wants now.

Aldrick just got into the car, followed by Tara who was still glaring at him guiltily. Does the girl still not think how to thank you? Does Aldrick need to tell you how? Come on... Just one word and it seems hard for this girl or does she not understand Aldrick's behavior? Can not be trusted.

Aldrick was just about to start his car when both of his hands were grabbed by cloth hands. He turned and Tara looked at him intently.

"Thank you for caring for me. At least even though there are no feelings between us you still want to care about my life. Sorry for my stubborn nature and thank you for so many things from you," Tara said from the bottom of her heart. Gazes at Aldrick and puts on his best smile. He wanted to thank this man now.

Aldrick smiled inwardly even though his face seemed flat at the moment. I don't know... What's with him this time. Following Tara, protecting her from bad fans, taking her for treatment, and now sulking involuntarily. Is it because he has dependents as Tara's husband? Who knows. What is clear is that he is happy now because he has succeeded in making this girl feel guilty and wants to apologize and say thank you, which are two things that are very difficult for people to do. Consciously or not but that's the truth. It can't be avoided just like that and of course, it just happens.

Tara let go of her hand as soon as she realized she'd been stopping Aldrick for too long. Leaning his body and installing the safety. Meanwhile, Aldrick then started to drive his car with the occasional glance at Tara who was looking out in silence. In his hand was a plastic filled with ointment and prescription notes, subconsciously making Aldrick smile faintly. This girl is obedient, it's just that she is covered in her overly barbaric and whimsical nature.

The car continues to run smoothly on the streets with time passing by without humans realizing it. While elsewhere, Rosalie as Tara's manager is still busy taking care of many problems because of her actions. Yes... He who purposely let Tara rest after the unexpected accident must bear the consequences by apologizing and will compensate for simply canceling the contract between them. He knew it was complicated, but he also couldn't ignore his artist by still forcing himself to work with the wounds on his body. Besides, there would be other problems if he didn't give Tara the day off and everyone would blame him for not taking care of his artist. Oh, he didn't want that. Better to lower his self-esteem a little by apologizing and making amends than having to sacrifice his good name.

"Yes, yes... I apologize for suddenly canceling our contract, Mr. But understand, something did happen that I couldn't let Litara keep working."

Rosalie still hasn't given up on her client who keeps urging her to come for the photoshoot this time. He won't let that happen because if he insists and everyone knows that Tara is hurt then there will be a lot of bad news that will spread on various social media. It will only get worse for Tara's career and reputation later. After all, he was used to being like this, apologizing and compensating with excuses. However, this time his client was a bit naughty so he had to spend extra energy to deal with it. Oh really.

"Whatever you want, but not more than the nominal in the contract. You must know about that right? So I beg you to forgive me for this bad thing."

"Okay. I forgive you this time. But if we have another contract, I don't want something like this to happen again. You're a manager of an international model, so take good care of your artists and work with important clients like me. Huh... Never mind I'm waiting for the transfer before five in the afternoon."
