"Hazel, where is he?" The first time she opened her mouth when she was asked about Hazel, of course, it made her husband a little disappointed.

Vino pulled his head and tried to put on a calm expression and his wife would not be suspicious.

"Mmm .. he's still at the police station." Said Vino.

Vira knit her brows. "Police station?" She did not understand what her husband said.

"He has to give reports and announcements, he also has to undergo an investigation, he attacked Andrew with a hard and dangerous object, he could be a defendant because of his actions."

Hearing Vino's words made Vira's face even paler, her eyes rounded.

"What does all that mean he already helped me, how could he be a defendant, he defended me, he helped me. "Vira lifted her back, she watched the blanket with a panicked face.

"What are you doing, what do you want?" Vino saw his wife who was about to get out of bed.

"I have to tell the police that Hazel's honest, they have to let him go, he's not the criminal." Vira's voice was trembling, she was very anxious at this time.

"Lie back down and calm yourself." Vino's voice sounded stern, his face looked flat. "I won't allow you to get out of bed, let alone get out of this room. You have to think about yourself, Hazel is already there with the right people around him, there are lawyers, lawyers, and parents. Meanwhile, worry about yourself." Vino's voice sounded hoarse.

Vira could only be silent, she obeyed her husband's orders. She returned and adjusted her position, and laid her back on the bed.

"Sorry that I wasn't the man who saved you when that bastard attacked you, the distance between the city and that place is quite far--"

Vira looks at her husband's tense face. Has her attitude hurt Vino?

"It's not your fault .." whispered Vira.

"I wanted to be someone who could protect you well but I failed, I couldn't hit that guy as Hazel did to him if I were to come and save you, I'm not sure myself, could I fight Andrew and beat him. I always get nervous when I confront him. "

Vira didn't understand what Vino said, but she felt that Andrew and Vino were tied to the story of the past.

"You, do you and that man, did you two know each other?" Asked Vira with a doubtful expression, she didn't dare to ask Vino directly but seeing her husband's face was so vulnerable, she became curious.

Vino lowered his gaze. He nodded his head small. "Yes, we are old friends, we've been friends since childhood, just like Sarah."

Hah! Vira shouldn't be surprised but she can't lie if Vino's confession just now keeps her gawking.

"At first, we were good and close friends, until one day we had problems and things took a drastic turn. I could never fight Andrew because every word that came out of his lips was the truth." Vino tries to tell a story, but Vira still doesn't understand.

They had known each other for a long time and Andrew lightly insulted her husband, what a friend! Inside Vira's heart hissed angrily.

"We are close friends, but in fact, it is not friendship, but competition, we are always competing." Vino's voice sounded low.

"Andrew was a confident, popular and cool guy, he is surrounded by girls, he is always the center of attention, but he doesn't even feel it, he always tells me that I'm the one who is popular and steals girls' hearts even though I'm a quiet and shy person. "

Vira's eyes rolled, she could imagine Andrew's words, that man was good at talking and manipulating, surely what Andrew said was a lie, he said Vino was a sissy in front of his wife, he was a bastard and insolent man!

"He's always feeling inferior to me, even though--"

"He's a coward!" Vira hissed and irritated.

Vino was surprised to hear his wife's words.

"Vino, listen to me. He doesn't deserve to compete with you, he is a coward, he is a trashy bastard, impertinent and immoral. Why are you lowering your head? Do you know what he did to me? Do you still consider him as your friend, after all, he did it to me! Okay, it doesn't matter if you still want to think of him as your childhood friend, but one thing... I want to ask you! "Vira's eyes lit up.

"If you saw me being raped by Andrew, what would you do?" The words that sounded harsh but trembling, it was not easy for Vira to say all this, but she was curious about her holy decision if it wasn't Hazel who came to save her.

Vino could not answer, he looked confused, annoying confusion.

"So you'll still think of Andrew as your true friend even though everything he's done was criminal, then what about me? With my pride?" Vira asks with her breath rising and falling, feeling very disappointed with her husband.

Vira looked away, she bit her lip. "I'm grateful that it was Hazel who came to save me and not you!" She said hoarsely, her tears falling.

Vino's face froze, he couldn't believe he could hear words like this from his wife's lips, but he couldn't deny that he was a cowardly, stupid man.

"You are a person who can't let go of the past easily although I tried to help you as much as I could, seeing you today, I'm very disappointed. "She whispered while wiping the tears that fell on her cheeks, Vira didn't want to look at Vino.

"Ah, I was stupid, I was too confident and forced myself to interfere in your business, I should have held back from the start." Vira tried to hold back her tears, she pulled a forced smile then turned to her husband.

She showed off a smile that looked bitter.

"Is it hard for you to leave all the past, your childhood friends, whom you consider very valuable but they never loved you as a friend? Is it hard to tell which person is sincere and has nothing to lose, whether you are blind, or your heart is frozen l, don't you understand? No wonder your father still considers you as a child, your mind is so immature ... "

The words from Vira's lips may be painful, but she wants her husband to know what life means.

"You can be near someone but your feelings are far away, or vice versa, you are near someone, but your feelings feel far away, Just Like what I expected, I hope, you will come and save me, but ..." Vira let out a short sigh.

"In another way, I forget one thing, Sarah who has long been lost from your life but never disappeared from your memory .."

Damn!

A sentence that felt so deep was like an immeasurable ocean.

Vino could only stare at his wife's face, which was streaked with a smile.
