Her night.
Rain is pouring down the earth.
The long night was filled with water falling from the sky, soaking up everything below.
Catalina had just been discharged from the hospital when a raindrop fell on her head. Instead of dodging and taking shelter, he raised his hand. He filled the rain with his palm.
Catalina decides to leave Tatiana with a nurse for the night, but unexpectedly, it rains suddenly. It keeps him stuck between the cold of the night and the wet of the rain.
He removed the mask covering his face and walked slowly away from the hospital. Breaking through the darkness of the night with the pouring rain was the most appropriate choice to shed the fatigue in his heart.
Walking down the sidewalk, there were many things he thought about.
The accident that hit Tatiana and put her in a coma, as well as the accident that hit her in Newcastle upon Tyne, was the work of Pamela. Although Sehan only covered up Tatiana's accident and did not cover up the accident that happened to her, but he did not know the reason why Sehan helped Pamela cover up her crime.
No. gabe.
It actually makes sense.
Pamela is Lexus' fiancee. Lexus is Sehan's younger brother. The crime that Pamela committed, it makes sense that Sehan helped cover it up. It is strange that the man was not involved. After all than anyone else, the person who will obviously be a family member is the most important.
What does his life mean, what does Tatiana's life mean, all that is not important to Sehan. Just like how he wanted to protect Tatiana, Sehan also did the same. The man also wanted to protect Lexus, wholeheartedly. Compared to his own sister, compared to a brother who was bound with blood, other people were just rolling pebbles. It's not important at all.
That's really not a strange thing.
But the truth was too funny for him. It was so funny that he could no longer laugh.
At the beginning of his meeting with Nick, Nick once said, Sehan is most likely involved in Tatiana's accident. He also had time to think so. But suddenly he became blind, did not know the direction, could not see the reality that was in front of him. He was fascinated and fell in love with her.
If what Sehan covers is someone else's case, it's no big deal. But that was the case with Tatiana. It is very strange if he does not hate people who clearly cover up the accident case that befell his twin brother, it is foolish if he does not hate people who clearly defend criminals.
Even if he is stupid and has no brain, even if he is stupid and retarded, he can still tell which is good and which is not good. From his point of view, he considered what Sehan did to be a great sin.
Defending Pamela who intended to kill Tatiana was an unforgivable sin. And he will never forgive anyone involved in it even if Sehan is the one he loves.
It never will.
While Catalina is drowning in resentment, in the CEO's room at Geffrey's company, not getting word from Catalina, Sehan begins to fidget. Despite knowing the reason why Catalina did not turn on her phone because she was busy looking after her twin sister, but that reason did not necessarily make her calm.
The more he thought, the more agitated he became.
He leaned his back against the back of the chair and his finger tapped on his knee at a slow tempo. "Catalina," he murmured. Other than a long sigh, only that name was thrown from his mouth. It was also just that figure that flashed through his mind. He missed that girl. Missed him so much.
But is everything okay?
Was the reason Catalina had not contacted him purely because of taking care of Tatiana, not because she hated him? Not because I was angry with him? Not because you don't want to see his face?
Sehan stopped knocking and twitching between his eyebrows.
By the way, Catalina doesn't know yet if she erased evidence of Tatiana's accident and covered up Pamela's involvement in the case, right?
Hopefully not yet.
No. gabe.
I hope the girl doesn't know. Never knew. Tatiana was conscious after all. The girl woke up, things should have gotten a lot better.
Yes, things will get better.
***
The rain has not stopped either.
Catalina shivered in the cold after walking for more than fifteen minutes under her sway. It has no direction of purpose. He doesn't know where he's going. He just walked where his feet took him.
Seeing the row of shops on the side of the road, Catalina stopped her footsteps. Standing between a clothing store and a food store, is Tattoo Studio. Thinking of something, Catalina continued her steps and opened the door of Tattoo Studio without hesitation.
"Is it still open?" ask Catalina when she got inside.
"Good, Miss! What the hell happened to you?" Ignoring Catalina's question, one of the Tattoo Studio employees who was cleaning screeched when he saw Catalina coming in with a soaked body. He picked up the towel deftly and walked over to Catalina and handed her the clean towel. "Dry yourself with this" he said.
"Thank you" Catalina said as she received her towel and began wiping her body and hair.
"Sit down! I'll make you a hot drink" he said before heading to the coffee maker and making a cup of coffee for Catalina.
Catalina sat herself down without taking her eyes off the woman who looked busy fiddling with the coffee maker. He wondered, the people he met intentionally or unintentionally were mostly good people.
He thought luck was really on his side.
But it turns out he was wrong.
Some good people he did meet, but not a few bad people who came and incised wounds on him without a shred of mercy, without a hint of guilt.
A life that cannot be predicted.
Finished making a cup of coffee, the Tattoo Studio employee immediately walked towards Catalina and placed his coffee cup on the table in front of Catalina. "Drink while it's warm" he said.
Catalina nodded. "Thank you" he said. He picked up his coffee cup and watched the woman clingy. She was a woman who was probably around twenty-eight years old with many tattoos on her body. From what he did, as well as the hospitality, he guessed that woman was the tattoo artist working here.
"Don't hesitate," he was friendly.
Catalina took a sip of water inside the cup before putting the cup back where it was. "Is this place closed?" tanyanya.
"Not yet we are getting ready to close" he replied. He and one of his colleagues are preparing to close. The routine ritual before leaving the studio is to clean every corner of the room until it is clean. And they were doing it before they left.
"Can you hold off any minute? I need your help" Catalina said. He is planning to get two tattoos on his body. One in the arm and one behind the ear. He who previously did not have any picture, even now he has got the concept for both tattoos.
The blue-eyed lady frowned, shocked and confused.
"I will pay triple" Catalina said.
The woman's confused voice turned into a small smile. Paying a tattoo artist to make a tattoo is not cheap. Plus the girl was willing to pay triple. He who hears, cannot possibly be disinterested. Moreover, this was his Tattoo Studio. There will be no prohibition if the studio closes later than usual.
"That can be talked about" said the woman later.
Catalina breathed a sigh of relief. "good. It's fine then."
