In the darkness, Alvera turned over and wiped her tears away.
She would never let anyone else see her as fragile, much less this man in front of her.
...
When he p*netrated her, she felt as if she could explode with anger.
The trauma lingered in her mind.
Roland felt a tugging sense of familiarity when he was with Alvera. Her body felt like that night four years ago, except this time he was sober and wide awake.
...
He did not understand why he felt this way.
Annoyed, his movements became more violent.
He finally finished up after what felt like forever.
Alvera quickly pulled the blanket over herself when she saw him get up to turn on the light.
The light flooded the room, dazzling her eyes.
She frowned, stood up with the blanket still around her, and walked into the bathroom without a word.
After she left, Roland looked at the messy but clean bedsheets and frowned.
Alvera was taking a very rough shower in the bathroom.
When she came out, Roland was still in the room.
She smiled at him. "Mr. Francois, why are you are still here?"
"You're not a virgin?"
Alvera paused for a moment then raised her eyebrows and looked at him. "I never said I was."
"Who did you do it with? That ex-boyfriend who left you?"
Alvera did not answer his question. "I didn't know you preferred virgins. If I had known, I would have done a reconstruction surgery. It's not too late now, is it?"
She smiled charmingly.
He detested her indifferent attitude, but that was how she presented herself to him every time he saw her. "Get out."
...
Alvera raised her eyebrows, shrugged, and left the room.
She went into the next room, closed the door and slumped her back against it. She slid to the floor and curled herself up, hugging her knees tightly against her chest.
She smiled as she heard Roland slam the door as he left the room outside.
She got back to her room and ate a piece of candy.
