BRAK‼!

The sound of slamming doors echoed in a simple nuanced apartment with a modern design dominated by black and white. Lucas threw all his things on the living room table and stomped into his room, not forgetting to slam the door too.

Author : Poor door-san

He lowered his head down, his hands on his hips and he sighed roughly, his red eyes like fire burning with anger. How dare the old man tell him to get engaged with another woman, even though he knows his relationship with Athanasia. Until whenever he would not approve of it even if the world of doom even though, never will.

His body slammed onto the bed and he cursed, "Shit!". Lucas took his phone and opened the gallery that had some of his photos with Athanasia, or the girl herself, her smile was so beautiful that Lucas's heart was calm but also sad, he really missed that bright smile, her voice, her touch, her punch, her loving gaze, her eyes that radiated happiness, warmth and everything that belongs to Athanasia is irreplaceable.

He then turned on the television and watched the news, his annoyed feeling grew even more chaotic when he saw the nonsense news about the company that became one of his rivals, even though the company in his hands was more successful and advanced than them.

Alpheus.

A gathering place for sycophants with Roger as their leader and Ijekiel's only son, who had been rejected many times by Athanasia. Lucas really hates them, there is no mercy at all when dealing with Alpheus, all proposals for cooperation between his company and them will always be thwarted for various reasons, so they are not related at all.

"What else did they do this time, relating to the criminal?", He laughed scornfully then read the title 'Roger Alpheus donated some medical aid equipment in a hospital'

"Medical aids? What a nonsense", he immediately turned off the television and moved out of his room with his phone. His tie was loosened and thrown into the hands of the couch, three buttons on his shirt were released showing his collarbone, his black coat had been removed. He rolled up his sleeve and opened a door that had a ladder down, where he chose a bottle of red wine that was quite old and went back up.

He also took a glass and entered the bathroom with the jacuzzi in the middle. Wine and glass were placed nearby and his shirt was thrown carelessly, he dipped his feet and then his whole body went into the water he had prepared. Leaning himself and pouring wine and gulping it down so many times he finally felt drunk and accidentally fell asleep in the jacuzzi.



"Lucas"

Whose voice is that?

"Lucas"

Argh! Who is disturbing my sleep!

"Please"

What?

"Please find me"

"I want to see you"

Wait a minute...

This sound,

Athanasia?

"Athy? Is that you? "

"Lucas"

The sound began to fade away from him, no light at all that illuminated his place. "ATHANASIA!"



"HAH!", Lucas widened his eyes from his brief dream. He turned his gaze and found the sky was dark. "Looks like I slept until the night", he held his head a little dizzy then stood with the body still wet from waist to toe, he walked to take a small white towel and wrap it around his waist while taking his phone. There were already many missed calls from Oscar, he decided to call him back there might be an urgent situation even though his last call was at 5 and it was already 7 pm.
