The three people there, compactly turned their heads to look at Emily who had been more silent.Louis didn't expect Emily to ask that. And Louis really wanted to swear at Alex right now, but he controlled himself as much as possible.Angelina noticed Louis' reaction which was of course surprised. But Angelina felt that Louis couldn't possibly lie about his feelings, right?Alex was satisfied that Emily finally attacked Louis with that question. A devilish smile rose on Alex's lips.Alex doesn't want to see his best friend happy, it's just that Alex doesn't want Louis to misinterpret his feelings.It can't be denied, that Alex does care about Emily, the girl who helped him several times and the one who supported his relationship with Angelina. But Alex didn't want to show it openly.To be honest, Alex didn't have the heart to see a girl hurt like that, especially if it was her lover's best friend. But Alex didn't want to do much and didn't want to show too much attitude because he felt
Drtt... Drrtt...Emily's mobile phone rang as she was resting on the sofa. For some reason, all parts of her body felt sore, even though it was only her leg that was sprained. Staying still without doing anything turned out to make the body uncomfortable, it actually felt very tiring."Hello." Emily greeted the caller."Hello, Emily, what are you doing?" asked the caller on the other side."I was watching television earlier, but I think I overslept," Emily replied."Did I disturb your sleep, Emily?""No problem, you didn't disturb me, Lou," Emily replied.Yes, the caller was Louis."You still had time to call me, aren't you busy?" Emily asked."I'm calling you because it's lunchtime, and yes, actually I am busy so I wanted to tell you that I can't come to your apartment to join you for lunch, do you mind if I don't come?" asked Louis."Not at all, Louis. You should be concerned with your responsibilities at the hospital, I can eat by myself. Besides, Angelina already made the food thi
"He's Alex's best friend, which means he's Angelina's friend too, and I'm Angelina's best friend too. So my relationship with Louis is just limited to that, as friends of friends," Emily explained."Emily, are you hurt? What happened? Why did you hurt your leg?" asked Oliver when he realised Emily's leg was bandaged.Emily was silent for a while. If Emily told the truth, she got hurt while looking for Louis to ask how Oliver was doing, Oliver would definitely get a big head. If Emily didn't tell the truth, she was afraid Oliver wouldn't believe her."Do you want to hide something from me, Emily?" asked Oliver again, further urging Emily to answer."I fell on the shoulder and sprained my ankle. I asked Louis to check my leg, and he agreed to treat me. He was even willing to ask my boss for permission directly so that I could rest a few days at home to recover my leg," Emily explained, not lying but not saying it outright either. Let's hope Oliver believes her."Why didn't you call me?
Emily was silent. She did think about asking Louis to stay away from her so that she wouldn't disappoint Louis if it turned out that she couldn't fall in love with Louis. But that doesn't mean Emily wants to continue her relationship with Oliver who she feels will have no future.Emily indeed loves Oliver, loves him so much that she is willing to suffer alone to see her beloved Oliver feel happy. Because for Emily, love is giving and not forcing to get something in return. So the girl was willing to give anything including letting Oliver be with Angelina, and she was willing to bear the pain herself.However, Emily doesn't think she will be able to continue her relationship with Oliver after the discussion the other day. Oliver did not love her, and they were in bed under the influence of stimulants. It was a double whammy for Emily. Emily was used to bearing the wounds of loving Oliver, but this time the wounds felt very deep and very difficult to heal. Emily did not want bad things
Not only was Emily surprised by Louis' arrival, but Oliver was also very surprised. And Oliver was even more worried about Louis hearing Emily's love confession. Because if Louis hears it then it's the end of his history, so Oliver thought."You don't believe someone can fall in love so soon? Do you know, the measure of love is not about time, because love often comes suddenly." Louis now walked closer to Oliver and Emily's position."Especially if you've hurt a girl's heart, do you think she should keep thinking about you while you're busy with your own ego? You should have thought of that, mate, especially if the pain she suffered caused a trauma, do you think she should still be concerned about you?" Louis spoke again because Oliver was still faithfully locking his mouth.Meanwhile, Emily was busy lowering her head and cursing herself because her carelessness would get her in big trouble. Hearing Louis' words, Emily was sure Louis heard what she confessed to Oliver earlier regardin
She struggled to stand up and leaned forward. In one fell swoop, Emily pulled Louis' shirt collar to bring him closer to her. What Emily did made Louis and Oliver surprised and astonished, guessing what Emily was going to do.Not yet finished with the shock, the two men were again surprised by Emily's act of suddenly kissing Louis' lips.Yes, Emily kissed Louis' lips. And it wasn't just an ordinary kiss.Louis was so shocked and nervous by what he received, that Louis didn't know what to do. But what Louis was sure of, he just had to accept Emily's treatment and help Emily drive Oliver away from the girl's life. But who would have thought Emily's kiss would get deeper and deeper? Because he felt carried away, Louis finally kissed Emily back and their kiss became a hot kiss.Oliver clenched his hands together to see how their kissing was so hot and soulful. And the biggest blow for Oliver was that they did it without any drug effect, unlike what he did with Emily that night. It made Ol
"Louis, you knew he was going to work at the same place as you, why didn't you tell me that?" asked Emily when they were already in the car heading to the hospital."I didn't know it was Oliver, Emily. I just knew that a doctor was transferring to the hospital where I work, but I didn't know it was Oliver because my boss didn't tell me the name," Louis explained.Emily sighed. She couldn't blame Louis if he didn't know. And Emily believed Louis would never lie to her."Doesn't it matter if he works in this city or outside the city? If you really believe in forgetting him, no matter what, you'll be able to forget him.""It's not that easy, Louis, I won't easily forget someone especially if I still see him every day," Emily replied."But, when Oliver was dating Angelina, didn't you also see him every day? And you were fine, right?""That's a different matter, Louis. Back then I let him date Angelina because they were my best friends, I did that because I loved them as my best friends. B
Louis was silent for a while.'What did she say? She loves me? That's not true, is it?' Louis wondered to himself.Honestly, Louis felt excited and happy to hear that statement come out of Emily's mouth. But Louis didn't want himself to misinterpret Emily's words. Until now, Louis tried to ignore her."You don't need to talk nonsense, Emily, you just rest. I'm sorry I have to leave you here by yourself," said Louis who then left. He tried not to be affected by Emily's words.Seeing Louis walking away from her, Emily couldn't stop him. Emily couldn't possibly prevent Louis from working.Emily let out a long sigh when the door to Louis' room was closed from outside, and immediately Emily leaned her back against the back of the sofa."He must not believe my words, that's why he doesn't care," Emily muttered bitterly."Never mind, this is my fault too. What am I, suddenly declaring my love for a man? You're crazy, Emily!"***"Honey, I'm sorry I didn't pick you up, but I told Josh to take
Alex and Emily immediately locked mouths when Louis called out for everyone to be quiet. And both of them looked away."Akh! Damn, are you hurting me on purpose?" Alex suddenly groaned in pain when Louis did an action that managed to make Alex hurt."It's noisy! I said be quiet!" snapped Louis ignoring Alex who blamed him."If you weren't my friend, I'd sue you!" said Alex sharply."Sue me, I'm not afraid," Louis replied casually."That's it, now you can blab all you want!" Louis said again.Louis had finished treating the wound on Alex's shoulder and repairing the stitches that had opened due to Oliver's actions earlier. Taking off his gloves, Louis let the nurse clean up the tools that had just been used."I'm not in the mood! I forgot what I was going to say earlier," Alex retorted irritably."You forgot but I didn't. You think I'm defending Oliver and accuse me of doing that because I like him, you're crazy!" snapped Emily realizing her protest that was stopped by Louis moments ag
"Move me to the same room as Angelina, Lou, I want to be with her," Alex pleaded as the man was taken to his own ward.Louis wanted to argue but Dominik's voice silenced him."Please just do what he wants, Louis, there's no time to argue!""Alright, Uncle, I understand. I'll arrange it right away," Louis replied unable to argue.Louis immediately went out of the room and asked for the help of some officers to help move Alex to the same room as Angelina.Several officers entered Angelina's ward where Louis' colleague, Doctor Yenny, was already present, in addition to Josh and Emily."What's wrong, Doctor Louis? Why are you here? Aren't you taking care of your patients?" Yenny asked."Doctor Yenny, sorry to bother you but I need you to help me. Alex wants to be moved to the same room as Angelina, so please help me organize this room, is that okay?" Louis said asking for approval."Louis, is Alex okay?" asked Angelina weakly."Just think of yourself, Angelina. I'll move him here soon. He
"Emily, that's Oliver's voice, isn't it? Is he with Alex right now? What are they doing?" Suddenly, Angelina was attacked by panic after hearing Oliver's voice shouting and ended up mentioning Alex's name."It looks like they're together, Angelina," Emily replied in the affirmative."You don't need to interfere in my business with Angelina, nor do you have the right to say about who deserves to love Angelina. Do you think you're performing for her?" Alex's voice was just as loud as Oliver's earlier."They really are together, Emily, but why is Oliver here? Isn't he supposed to be working out of town?" asked Angelina frowning."I forgot to tell you, he transferred to this hospital, Angelina," Emily explained."What? No! We need to get to them fast, Emily!" Instantly Angelina had a bad feeling. She was afraid there would be a fight between the two men. Especially now that Alex's condition was very weak, Angelina was worried about Alex, very much.Emily just nodded and then immediately h
"Angelina, don't run around, you're still not fully recovered so--""Akh!"Before Emily could finish her sentence, Angelina was already groaning in pain while holding her stomach."Angelina! You're in pain, we should just go back to the ward, okay? Let Louis and the others take care of Alex," persuaded Emily who could not bear to see Angelina in pain."No, Emily, we're already here, I don't want to go back. I have to see Alex." Angelina did not agree to Emily's invitation because they had walked far and soon they reached the rooftop, Angelina did not want what she had done earlier to be in vain if she returned to her ward."You're stubborn! Let me help you, don't run around anymore, I'll lead you, just slow down," Emily said and Angelina could only nod without being able to refuse.One by one they climbed the stairs, and it felt like they took a very long time even though there were only a few stairs left for them to reach the rooftop. It was because Angelina was having trouble walkin
"I've given up. I'm not sure I'll still be accepted by Angelina," Alex said as he returned to his ward."What's more now she's alone with Emily and we all know Emily expressed her reservations about my relationship with Angelina. I'm afraid Emily is poisoning Angelina's mind," Alex added."Don't be prejudiced against Emily, I know she won't pressure her best friend, she must respect Angelina's decision. Emily is not a selfish girl," Louis replied."You're so insecure, I'm not sure you really love Angelina, Alex," a middle-aged man chided."What do you mean, Dad?" asked Alex frowning."If you really loved her you would be able to feel Angelina's feelings for you, and you would know the answer, whether she would accept you again or kick you out of her life," Dominik explained.Alex was silent for a long time. He thought hard and remembered little by little about the days he had passed together with Angelina.Alex felt that what his father said was right. If Alex really loved Angelina he
After Louis and the others left, there was silence in Angelina's ward.Angelina chose to remain silent. She wanted to discuss it with Emily but she was already insecure because Emily had said her opinion earlier, that she did not expect her to return with Alex.No different from Angelina who kept feeling reluctant, Emily also chose to remain silent because she was worried that if she talked too much it would add to Angelina's burden of mind. Moreover, she has already argued about her objection to her best friend accepting Alex's invitation to get back together.Angelina pulled the blanket up more, until it covered her chest, if earlier it only covered her stomach."Rest, Angelina, I will accompany you here and I will not let them bother you," Emily said to reduce awkwardness."Thank you, Emily. If you're tired you can come up next to me, we can lie down together. This bed is quite spacious," Angelina replied.Yes, in the VIP ward, the beds were wider and could have been used by two pe
"Please help Alex up!" Caroline called out to anyone willing to help her. However, before his mother could touch her, Alex raised her hands in the air to signal his mother not to approach him."Nobody comes near me! No need to help me!" Alex exclaimed in a stern tone."Angelina, I know and I am very aware that I have hurt you a lot. I know I'm selfish if I keep asking you for a chance again and again. But, I can't just let you go either. You can be angry and hate me, but you have to believe me that I really love you. I don't think of you as someone else's shadow at all. You are you, Angelina Brigitte, the woman who healed my wounds and accepted my flaws."Kneeling on the cold floor of the air-conditioned room, barefoot, Alex spoke thus."I regret, really regret my stupidity because again I was deceived by that damn woman, I never thought Camila would cooperate with Roy, that's because I was very weak and I underestimated the enemy too much. But I promise I will be stronger from now on
Angelina didn't answer Alex's question, the girl kept looking away, not wanting to look at Alex at all."Angelina, why won't you look at me? Are you angry with me?" Alex asked again because Angelina never answered."Alex, go back to your ward. Both you and I need a good rest, so get out of here and let me rest," said Angelina, glancing at Alex and then looking away again."Can you all get out and leave me alone with Angelina?" Not caring about Angelina who kicked him out, Alex just asked everyone to come out. And that made Angelina gasp."I asked you to come out, why are you kicking everyone out, Alex?" protested Angelina."If you don't want to talk in front of everyone, then let everyone out. Let's talk alone," Alex said. "I have a lot to talk to you about, and I'm sure you have some things to tell me too, right?" Alex continued."I'm not going to leave you two here alone. The others can go out, but I will accompany Angelina here," said Emily who did not want to leave the two of them
"Angelina, please don't be like this. Don't do this, you can't be like this, stop, Angelina!" Emily shrieked at the sight of Angelina who was on a rampage, throwing everything that was attached to her. The girl had reached the peak of patience, now she was desperate."Go, Emily, get out of my way, just let me die. I've lost my baby. I've lost the life I longed for, everything has perished, and even happiness has left me. Suffering after suffering keeps coming and going, I'm tired, and I can't take it anymore. I want to see Mum and William, let me follow them to God's side!" Angelina was ranting and raging uncontrollably. But because Angelina's body was still weak, Emily had little trouble dealing with her best friend."Don't ever say that, Angelina, don't be stupid! Happiness doesn't leave you, it's just that it will come at the right time, believe me. If you believe in God then believe that God will give you what you need!" Emily spoke in a high tone to wake up her best friend."Then
