Chapter 88
Beautiful life, yes, very beautiful. Nina didn't know that being loved by a rich man would feel this great. As if all the luck in this world fell into your hands.
Since Aiden sent some money into her bank account, Nina was barely living at first, was finally able to feel a little happiness by buying delicious food and things that she couldn't buy with her own money before.
Now, she completely lost herself. Leisurely, she sprawled out on the living room rug after devouring a box full of fried chicken and cola.
"This is what it feels like to live well, huh?" She muttered peacefully. A smile tugged at her lips.
Tin...tun...
Nina's fun was interrupted by the sound of the bell. If she could guess who the uninvited guest was, it would most likely be Samantha. Yes, Samantha came to disturb the peace of her life.
"Ah...it must be that witch again! Does she want to take over this house?" She muttered as she got up lazily and walked towards the door.
Before opening the door, it would be better if she saw from the CCTV, who was the person standing behind the door. Yes, just to make sure as well as mentally prepare if something unexpected happens.
"Hah? Aiden? Why is he home already?" Instantly, she panicked when she saw Aiden's face from the CCTV. Strange, doesn't he already know the password to his own house? Why does he have to wear the bell ringing event?
"Tsk, how is this? Why did he suddenly come home? Agh... this house is still a mess!"
Tin...tun...
Once again, Aiden tried to ring the bell after the first bell but there was no response from Nina.
Aiden was confused, he glanced at the watch on his hand. It's 4:00 in the afternoon, usually at this time Nina would have come.
"Where is she? Is she out?" He muttered.
Even though Aiden tried to surmise the possibilities, he didn't know that in his house the banana girl was panicking because she didn't know what to do now.
Nina was trying to collect used bottles that she had picked up for the past week and had deliberately kept them in Aiden's apartment for a while because of the big room.
"Ouch...how is this? If he sees it, I'm done!"
Meanwhile, Aiden who couldn't wait, decided to go in and wait for Nina inside the house. In fact, he deliberately came home without giving news just to surprise her.
Krieeettt...
Aiden began to slowly open the door. When the sound of the doorknob sounded, Nina's heart pumped faster and faster, causing cold sweat to flow all over her body.
Nina hugged a large plastic bag filled with used bottles that she thought she could hide behind the door. Quickly, she ran before Aiden found it.
"Squishy, I come-"
Braaaakk...bruuukkk...
Dozens of used bottles flew in the air in slow motion along with Nina who almost fell backwards right in front of Aiden.
"Aaagh..."
"Huh? What is this?"
Bruuukkkk...
Nina's scream stopped when her back touched the floor.
Thump... thump... thump... thump...
All the bottles that were floating in the air fell onto the floor.
"Ouch, my back!" Nina muttered in pain while touching her back.
Aiden who didn't understand what just happened, was speechless when he saw his house strewn like a trash can. There was an emptiness in his heart when he realized that his plan to give a surprise ended when he was the one who got this very unexpected surprise.
"W-what the hell is this?" Aiden's blank face slowly turned into an angry face ready to explode.
"A-Aiden, calm down! I can explain!"
"Explain you say? Then, how do you explain all this?" Aiden's tone changed, his expression also looked very cold.
Nina was trembling with fear, this was a disaster. Right, a very big disaster because she didn't expect Aiden to come home without telling her first.
"Aiden, please forgive me! I'll clean it up now!" She pleaded begged while kneeling in front of the master who stared at his with terrible anger.
"Clean up, huh? Hum? Then, I might as well clean you up...!"
***
Nina was really helpless, she had spent an hour cleaning the whole house. However, the used bottles that he had painstakingly collected were ready for Aiden to destroy.
"Hiks, how could? My children don't leave your mother...!" Nina shouted when she saw that Aiden's bottles had been collected and ready to be thrown in the trash.
"You really are crazy, aren't you? Because of you, I have to do all of this!"
"Yes, sorry!"
"It's as easy as your mouth to say sorry! So, this is how you behave when I'm not around? Keep your possessions and make my house like a dump?"
"That's not what I meant, Aiden! Just listen to my explanation!"
"I don't want to hear! My plans are ruined because of your stupid behavior. You always ruin the atmosphere. It's just a pain!"
"I'm sorry!"
"After all, what are you collecting so many used bottles for?"
"For sale!"
"For sale? How much can you sell all this?"
"Yeah, not much compared to your money, but at least it can fill my stomach for one week!"
"Didn't I already send money? Isn't that enough too?"
"No, I just-"
"Listen! I don't understand at all, what are you actually collecting trash like this for, but this is my house. If you really want to collect trash, do it in your house!" Aiden said loudly. It seemed he couldn't contain his frustration every time he remembered how dirty and messy this house was when he returned.
Nina was silent, she really felt guilty for Aiden. She really shouldn't be acting on her own just because Aiden loved her. She felt that her actions were really outrageous, even though Aiden had been very good to her.
Seeing Nina who was suddenly silent with a sad face, made Aiden feel guilty for having said something a little harsh to her. He is trapped again in the annoying feeling of awry.
"Look, your clothes are dirty like that. If you need money, why don't you tell me? To collect trash like this-"
"Sorry, I'm not someone who was born rich like you. This is how I make money, I'm really sorry for trashing your precious house. I'm so sorry!" She said. Her face sunk, her pride shattered as she realized how humiliating she was.
"Why do you always say annoying things like that? Is that how you judge someone? By their wealth? By their greatness, is that it?"
"Yes, exactly!"
"Is that so? Ok, I understand. Maybe you and I live in different ways, but to be honest, I really hate it when someone judges me based on what I have. Really, I thought you were different, but you're just the same!"
Aiden went to his room, holding back his annoyance, he closed the door and allowed himself to stay like this for a while. He felt very disappointed with Nina's words and honestly, it hurt him a lot.
Somehow, it felt like he had heard it from someone before. The pain he felt was exactly the same and the one who said it was also a woman who had been a part of his life.
Yes, that day. The day when he really dedicated his heart to that woman, but his sincere love ended in deep bitterness.
At that moment, he and the woman stood facing each other. Aiden who felt that he had done his best, in the end had to endure the suffocating pain.
"Aiden, if I had everything like you, I wouldn't do this. Someone like you can't possibly understand. So I beg you, just go!"
