The Bride of Mr. Adam
My first friend, Haley.
Episode 26: My first friend, Haley.
***
Time finally passed, though,
It had been almost a week since the moment Adam started to walk away from Alice, and Adam felt that he had improved, his heart had not been beating too fast either.
He felt like everything was back to normal.
"Sir Adam didn't come home today, plus here more and more people, did he deliberately not come home because he didn't want to see me?"
Alice talks to herself, she does sleep in Adam Duke's private room but even though Adam has never come home since he told her to stay in his private room.
Alice, who was standing on the balcony of Adam's room, saw a bright blue sky with white cloud spots.
"It's so pretty ...."
Alice marveled at the beauty, then she was made aware of the sight she had just seen.
"This beauty I can see thanks to Mr Adam, why do I want something that doesn't? Mr. Adam gave me a place to live and gave me a chance to study, thankfully, I'm very happy ...."
He smiled, he should not hope, he should be satisfied with everything he got at the moment.
Because he knew he was not an important person to Adam Duke, he was just a pebble found on the side of the road, given the opportunity to change his own destiny.
"Mrs Alice, Professor Alan has arrived" Haley came to call Alice.
Haley remained around Alice and became her personal guardian for a while, as Haley had not yet had a mission, and Haley became close to Alice personally because Alice was so gentle and kind, it makes Haley want to protect her.
Alice looked back, the gentle breeze that touched her hair made Alice look very graceful and beautiful.
Alice clasped Haley's hand.
"Ehem .. Just tell me Madam, I'm also here as your guard for a while, so I'll do what you ask while it's still natural," haley exclaimed again amazed, how could there be humans on this earth as innocent and pure as Alice.
As if all the dirty things in the world there is not a single speck in Alice.
"Can you not call me madam? you know ... At first I was a little scared of you, because I just got tricked by the waiter a moment ago, but my little heart told me you were a good person, so ... want you to be my friend, please," the tighter he clutches.
Alice is desperate to have friends, she wants to know what it feels like, and she believes that Haley can definitely be her best friend.
"okay? i'm good? is he not wrong? well .. maybe he doesn't know I'm a terrible woman who has sin, only Boss Adam and the other members can accept me, in this cruel world I would be instantly obliterated if I knew what I had done!"
Haley was silent, she was just talking in her heart, she was surprised to hear that someone was saying she was good, when in fact she had so many sins and mistakes.
"Haley, you're good, I know that, your aura is the same as that of Mr. Sazu, you're both dark, but at the same time you calm down, you calm down, at first I didn't understand and was just afraid of being around you and Mr. Sazu, but I finally understood, something black isn't necessarily bad,"
"I shouldn't judge you by what I see in my eyes, but I have to judge you by what I feel from the heart, and I'm sure you're a good person ...." Alice was very forthright in her words.
There were no lies at all, she wanted to say that her first impressions of Sazu and Haley were indeed terrible but once she got to know them, Alice instead received happiness and comfort.
Upon hearing Alice's sincere words, Haley's tears involuntarily flowed out so profusely.
"You are a good man ..." The words were recalled again by Haley, Adam Duke said when Haley had just committed a crime.
At that time Haley was forced to kill her boss who was a pimp who sold her to various customers, in order to be free she planned the murder.
Haley doesn't remember clearly, but he almost died in the hunt by his Boss' men but that time Adam Duke and his colleagues came to save him and the first word spoken by Adam Duke was.
"You're a good man, come with me,"
Those words were deeply imprinted in Haley's heart and she recalled again when Alice spontaneously said the same thing.
