Blair had yet to learn how tired she had been the night before. She kept crying and angry all night until she fell asleep on the couch.
As soon as she opened her eyes, the sun illuminated the entire house. Blair quickly got up. She thought Axel might have gone home and was sleeping in his room.
Cautiously, the woman climbed the stairs leading to the second floor. Blair stood in front of Axel's closed room and slowly opened it.
The room is empty. The position of the mattress is also still in a neat condition – not touched at all. That means Axel did not come home all night.
Anger flared up in Blair's chest. She returned to the ground floor and sat pensively on the couch.
Axel went home. He opened the door and saw Blair sitting alone on the living room sofa.
"Blair? You woke up early today?" say hi, Axel.
Blair just sat quietly, glancing sharply at Axel. She didn't say anything.
Seeing Blair, who was silent and not responding, Axel walked over to her.
"You… waited all night long?"
"Why are you always like that?" Blair said in an even tone with no expression at all. She didn't even want to look at Axel. Her gaze fell on the table.
"What?" Axel pretended not to understand.
Blair could no longer hide her anger. "Do you really think I'm stupid? You have the heart to treat me like this?"
Axel wanted to say something, but he didn't. He felt so guilty.
"Why do you always make me wait?" Blair shouted.
"If you wait too long and I don't come, you should go. Are you waiting stupidly again?" replied Axel.
Blair held back her tears so they wouldn't spill in front of Axel. "What did you say? I am stupid? Do you think I'm stupid? Who's the fool here? If you love that mysterious woman, why don't you tell her?"
"What?!" Axel needed clarification.
"I know you love that girl! You can't escape her, but you don't dare say you love her. You instead chose to marry me in contract to avoid getting engaged to Clarissa. What a fool you are! You made me wait and spend time with that woman."
"What?" Axel's turn to be angry now. "Hey!" Don't talk about something you don't know. What's your business? Why do I have to hear something like this from you?"
"A person like me?" Blair was offended.
"Well, someone like you! Who do you think you are? You think you are my wife? Who do you think can meddle in my business?"
"I know we are nothing. I don't even have a relationship with you. But why are you making things difficult for me, Axel?"
"Who?" replied Axel. "Who's bothering you? I? Why did you get hurt by me?"
"Because you keep making me wait! I also waited yesterday. I kept waiting until they said the restaurant was closing. I'm also waiting for you at home. Until I fell asleep and didn't realize it was already morning."
Blair released all her pent-up anger.
"When will he come home?", "Of course, he will come.", "He will definitely come."
"I kept asking those stupid questions all night! I waited all night. Why do I always have to wait for you?"
Axel shifted gears. "Then who told you to wait?"
"Correct!" Blair replied with great disappointment. The tears she had been holding back last night finally spilled out. "You are right. I will not wait for you anymore, will never wait for you."
"Correct!" Axel replied no less cruelly. "Don't ever wait for me. Don't get me wrong again. Never expect me. We don't have any relationship. You mean nothing to me. Understand?"
"Yes, I know. To you, I am nothing," Blair said between sobs. "Now, you are also nothing to me!"
Blair got up from the couch and wiped away her tears quickly. She left Axel.
Axel went to his room. He took off his clothes, roughly slamming them on the floor. Axel punched the cupboard so hard. Axel was angry and frustrated with himself.
"I'm sorry, Blair. I have to be rude and bad to you. I do not have a choice."
Axel was so frustrated. He sat on the floor, holding his head. He really regretted his rude attitude towards Blair. But Axel also couldn't tell the woman the truth.
Blair was so hurt. She needs time to be alone and calm down.
Blair was walking from the beach house to the park. She sat alone on a park bench while pouring out all her emotions. Tears couldn't stop flowing from her eye sockets.
Blair was still in the garden several hours later. She didn't want to go back home or know where to go.
It suddenly rained heavily. She looked up at the gray sky and let her face wet from the season's first rain.
Axel stood in front of his bedroom window, watching the pouring rain. He paced around for a while and worried that Blair had not returned home.
Blair took shelter under a shady tree in the garden. She covered her head with both hands, which offered no protection. She was shivering and cold.
Blair rubbed her growing belly. She was worried about her baby's health if she continued to stay there.
Blair even left the house without taking anything. She didn't have any money with her, nor did she have her cell phone with her. She looked around and ran to the telephone box for shelter.
The rain is getting heavier. Axel was so worried, considering the state of the heavily pregnant fish. He lowered his ego and ran out of the room for an umbrella.
Axel was pacing the front fence and walking around the beach looking for Blair, but he couldn't find Blair anywhere.
Axel walked further along the beach.
"Blair!" He shouted, calling and looking for the girl. "Blair! Where are you?"
Blair was utterly shivering and freezing in the telephone box. There is only shelter there. She hugged her drenched body. The rain was getting heavier, and the thunder continued to rumble.
Blair was really miserable and so sad. During her homeless life, she had never felt so sorry.
On the table next to the phone there are some coins left. Blair thought of something.
Not wanting to stay there and freeze to death, Blair took the coins and started dialing someone on a pay phone.
Louis' phone vibrates. He was in his office and busy with work matters.
"Yes, hello?" he said.
As soon as he heard Blair's voice, Louis' attention was immediately riveted on the call. He left all his work and rushed to the park.
Under the pouring rain that was so heavy, Louis got out of the car carrying a large umbrella. He walked through the park looking for Blair.
Louis stopped when he saw Blair standing pensively in the telephone booth. He couldn't bear to see her alone and shivered with cold. Louis slowly drew closer and held out his umbrella to Blair.
After crying for several hours, Blair turned and looked at Louis with a puffy face.
"Sorry," Blair cried. "I made you come here in the rain."
Louis just smiled.
Louis takes Blair back to his apartment. In the apartment in the center of the city, Louis lives alone.
He returned from the bathroom and brought a clean towel for him to hand to Blair.
"Sorry to bother you," Blair said. "It's suddenly raining hard, and I don't know who to contact."
"Well, no problem. Relax and pretend you are at home alone."
Blair received the clean towel from Louis and began to dry herself.
"You were very cold to me the last time we met," Blair said. "I'm a bit confused by your attitude. Did I do something wrong to make you dislike me? Or are you disappointed with my work?"
