Chapter 15

'Oh, it's another day, I have to watch her act strangely...' Belle muttered while propping herself up on her elbows. Because Anna's behaviour has been strange again since this morning. She even seems to be muttering to himself with all his strange thoughts now, according to the 4-year-old little girl.

'Mom...' Belle called, but unfortunately, Anna was too busy with her thoughts, so she didn't answer her little daughter's call.

'Humph!' Belle started to get annoyed. So she decided to approach Anna and protest to her. 'MOM!' Belle screamed, and Anna gasped in surprise because of her daughter. Even the glass in her hand fell and the water spilled onto her clothes.

'Belle, why did you startle me?'

'Why haven't you served my pancakes yet? Didn't you see it burn? I can smell the burning smell from my chair, Mom!'

Due to Belle's words, Anna finally realized the mess she had made after struggling with all the crazy thoughts in her head. 'O-oh, sorry... I'll change it. What about your cereal? I'll make them instead of the pancakes I messed up.' Anna made an offer to her daughter who looked like she could really go berserk. 'Ah, whatever. Let me play with my tablet. I'm bored of waiting for you, Mom.'

Anna just pursed her lips. She really understands that her daughter could get angry like that because she wasn't focused anymore. 'Oh okay, you can play it until 10 o'clock.' it was the longest Anna had given Belle her screen time. She thought that would be enough to make up for her mistake this morning.

Leaving the problem of Belle having finished her breakfast, Anna then went back to struggling with her thoughts. 'He messed with me too much. I can't go on like this. I have a big responsibility that I have to take care of.' She said, with all her desire to end everything about Leon, both the disgusting and the hottest things in her head. And about her crazy dream... 'Maybe it's just because I've been too stressed about the problems that have happened these days, so my body feels like it just needs some pleasure.' Anna concluded so. She even further thought, 'If all these problems are resolved and my economy can be a little more stable, it wouldn't be a bad idea to go on a date. Instead of dreaming of being fucking by the crazy mafia, right?'

And it seemed like Anna had succeeded in straightening out the confusion in her mind.

***

After all her drama, Anna decided to visit one of the nursing clinics, which was one of the potential places where she could get a job.

'Hello Miss, how can I help you?' a man at the front desk of administration was seen welcoming Anna in a friendly and warm manner. 'Oh, Hello, I'm Anna Skye. I want to apply as a nurse at this clinic. I can explain my work experience over the years taking part in social action as a nurse in various volunteer activities.' Anna explained all that, but then all she got was a stunned face that was mesmerized by her beauty and seemed to have been hypnotized by her clear blue eyes.

'Oh, don't I meet the requirements to become a nurse here? Do I have to be certified first?'

'O-oh, no. Sorry, my mind just wandered. Regarding that matter, let's meet with our director, Mrs. Collin. She will be able to decide for you.'

Anna flashed a happy smile, and it looked many times more charming to the well-built black man in front of Anna. 'Oh, goddamn. You're so beautiful.' He even praised Anna like that. And Anna who heard that, just smiled shyly with a blush on her face.

And without Anna knowing, someone from a distance was watching her with displeasure. 'Tch, she can smile like that just because of a bastard with his cheap compliments...' he muttered in a hateful tone. And not long after, he walked into the clinic following Anna's steps, still without her knowing.

Anna still had a conversation that sounded quite friendly and pleasant with the man named Arnold, who adored her so much. Meanwhile, the man who was secretly following behind continued to put on a displeased face.

'So you have a daughter? Then where is he now?' asked the man. 'She's in daycare. At first, she was very annoyed and didn't want to. But after I persuaded her for a long time, she finally agreed.'

'Oh, wait.' Suddenly that man's hand tried to grab a strand of Anna's hair which was almost blocking her right eye. But before he even touched Anna's hair, his hand was stopped by a strong hand that gripped it quite tightly.

'Watch your hands! You can't touch just any woman!' he said giving a stern warning. Don't forget that her hand is gripping the man's hand even harder.

'Oh, Fuck! What the fuck is with you! Fuck off!!'

The man groaned loudly in his shock and confusion about the presence of the man who suddenly appeared and immediately committed violence against him.

Likewise with Anna, 'Leon?! What are you doing here? And what did you do to him? Let go of his hand!!'

Leon still wanted to grip that hand until he could crush it. However, because Anna asked him to let go, he threw his hand away roughly. 'You let some this bastard touch you, Miss?'

Anna immediately frowned because Leon suddenly became angry, just because a man suddenly wanted to straighten his hair. It was too strange for Anna. 'What's your business, Leon?'

And you haven't answered my question yet. 'Why are you here? Don't tell me that you followed me. Because if you do... I will report you for stalking action!' Anna said firmly to Leon. 'Don't get me wrong.' Leon replied while adjusting his clothes and straightening his body.

'I just have a little business with Mrs. Collin. If I were here and met you, it might be a coincidence. or maybe it was fate that made me have to save you from this bastard.' Arnold already had an angry face towards Leon, after what he had done before and what he had just said. 'Watch your words, man!'

And Anna... she was shocked because of what Leon had just said. In Anna's mind, doesn't she think about who is more worthy of being called a bastard?

'Ah, what an extraordinary coincidence, Mr. Leon.' She replied somewhat sarcastically. 'Then please see Mrs. Collin goes first and I'm going to see Mrs. Collin after you're done with Mr. Arnold' From how Leon's expression is now, it's clear that he totally disagrees with that.

'I can't let you be with him. Let's meet Mrs. Collin together.' Leon said, immediately grabbing Anna's hand and dragging her towards Mrs. Collin together.

'O-oh, why are you dragging me?! HEY! Let me go!'

After five minutes of being dragged by Leon's strong hand gripping Anna's hand, the two of them arrived at the door of Mrs. Collin. 'Let me go!' Anna said in an angry tone. And this time Leon let her go. Both face each other with different tensions. Leon looked relaxed while Anna looked fed up with Leon for behaving as he pleased her. With sharp eyes, Anna told to Leon that she would go in first. 'Don't ruin my day again. I have an important meeting with Mrs. Colin.'

But what happened next was... 'Argh!'

Anna was suddenly pulled into a corner when she was about to open it. Mrs.Collin's door.

'What the fucking are you doing?' asked Anna, who was shocked and also wanted to be angry. but Leon then covered Anna's mouth.

'Uhm!!!'
