Leonardo Davidson drove his car away from his house. Today he was forced to drive himself because the driver was having an emergency. He forgot to sign some important papers, so he rushed to the office and didn't have time to eat breakfast.
"Alfredo, prepare breakfast for me. I don't have time for breakfast at home."
Leonardo called Alfredo by phone. Before Alfredo had time to answer, Leonardo had already turned off the phone.
"Huffftttt." Alfredo exhaled roughly.
"Who?" A young woman with a beautiful appearance lying on a bed, with an IV line in her hand, asked.
"Leonardo called me. I'm sorry, I have to go to the office now." Alfredo replied, holding the woman's hand and kissing her forehead. The woman nodded her head.
"No problem. Go on." The woman replied with a smile. Alfredo nodded his head, then walked out of the room, leaving the woman. Zivanna Mariah Electra, the woman's name. She is Alfredo's younger brother. She had an accident several months ago and is still undergoing treatment at the hospital. Alfredo kept his younger sister a secret simply because he didn't want Leonardo to know. Leonardo, Zivanna and Alfredo were childhood friends. Even until both Alfredo and Zivanna's parents died in an accident, Leonardo's parents helped finance Alfredo and Zivanna's life until finally Alfredo worked at Leonardo's father's company. Alfredo managed to send Zivanna to school abroad. A few months ago, Zivanna returned and worked for a foreign company, but unfortunately, she had a serious accident and had to be hospitalized. Leonardo liked Zivanna a long time ago, but Alfredo never gave him the opportunity to approach Zivanna until Zivanna left to continue his education abroad. Although Leonardo was very kind to Alfredo and Zivanna, Alfredo did not want Zivanna to be treated like the women who had been Leonardo's lovers. For this, Alfredo did not believe in Leonardo.
He also warned his younger sister. Zivanna also knew very well how Leonardo was behaving with the women he was dating, so Zivanna agreed to keep his whereabouts a secret. She knew Leonardo loved her but like her brother Alfredo, Zivanna also didn't believe in Leonardo.
"Good morning, Miss Zivanna. How are you today?" A man's voice greets. Zivanna flinched then looked at the door where the sound was coming. A handsome young man wearing a white coat that opens with a maroon red shirt on the inside, with a big smile, striding definitely towards Zivanna.
"Doctor Andreson?" Zivanna thought.
"Good morning too Doctor, I feel better today," replied Zivanna with a smile.
"It's just the two of us here. Just call me Andreson," replied the man. Zivanna smiled, then nodded her head.
Doctor Anderson was Zivanna's high school friend. After a long time, the two only met again when Zivanna was admitted to the hospital where doctor Anderson worked.
"Alfredo isn't here yet?" Anderson asked as he sat on the chair beside Zivanna's bed.
" Already, but he's gone again. Something urgent, " replied Zivanna.
"Hmm. Still don't want to eat hospital food?" Andreson smiled as he stood up and then checked the food on the table. Zivanna shook her head.
" Alfredo has brought breakfast for me."
"I know. This, right? Hmm, it smells really good. I'll feed you."
Anderson said, then sat back down with a lunchbox.
"Anderson, I can do it myself. Don't bother yourself."
Zivanna refused in a subtle tone, then slowly got up and leaned back.
"I want to do it for you. Let me feed you, Zivanna." Andreson said half insistently. Zivanna did not argue anymore.
*****
" Have a drink first. ” Anderson handed Zivanna a glass of water.
"Thank you," said Zivanna.
"Next time Alfredo becomes unavailable, call me so I can feed you something." Anderson said while feeding Zivanna.
"But there is a nurse who takes care of all my needs. I don't want to bother you." Zivanna denied it.
"From the past until now you still haven't changed. Stay stubborn." Andreson said in a half whisper. Zivanna only smiled.
'It's pointless arguing with her. Whatever she refuses, I'll still come. I don't feel bothered anyway. ' Andreson thought.
"Done. Good girl." Anderson said, handing Zivanna the tissue.
"Thanks Anderson, " said Zivanna in a half whisper. Knock! Knock! Knock! The door was knocked. Anderson and Zivanna spontaneously turned toward the door. A nurse dressed all in white complete with a mask can be seen walking in. "Doctor, someone's looking for you, "said the nurse.
"Thank you, nurse. Please give medicine to Miss Zivanna. I'll be right back." Anderson replied. "Okay Doc, "replied the nurse.
"Wait a minute. I'll be back." Andreson said to Zivanna. Zivanna nodded her head with a smile. Andreson nodded his head then walked out of the room. "Hey, I'm here!" A man's voice called out. Anderson spontaneously turned his head.
Leonardo? "He was surprised to see who was looking for him so early. Leonardo Davidson, the CEO of the Diamond Star company, is Anderson's cousin. He then walked over to Leonardo. "Leonardo? What's up here so early? Are you sick?" Anderson asked in a worried tone.
"I'm fine. I've come to invite you over to my house tonight."
"To your house? You're having another party? Why don't you just call?" Anderson asked.
"If you answered my phone, I wouldn't come here. I called you a dozen times but you didn't answer. I thought you were busy, so I came here right away." Anderson just remembered, he left his cell phone in the room.
"Sorry I visited Zivanna earlier, I left my cell phone in my room, " said Anderson.
Okay, no problem. I'm from the office and came straight here just to see you. I'm waiting for your arrival tonight. Don't fail to come. There are more beautiful women tonight. I will prepare the best for you," said Leonardo, glancing at his watch and turned his body to leave Anderson. Only two steps walk, he suddenly stopped. Quickly walked back toward Anderson.
"Zivanna, Zivanna, Zivanna. Anderson, I heard you mention Zivanna's name earlier. Who is she? Your girl friend?" Leonardo looked up and glared at Anderson.
"Zivanna, she's one of my patients. Why do you ask?"
Anderson was curious.
"Oh, your patient? I'm just asking. His name is similar to someone's, " replied Leonardo.
"Who? " asked Anderson.
"A woman in my past. Never mind, forget it. I'm leaving," said Leonardo and walked away from the confused Anderson.
'Hufftt. He hasn't changed at all. Only parties and women on his mind. Oh yeah, I'm curious, he asked about Zivanna earlier. The name Zivanna is similar to the name of a girl in her past. Could it be that the Zivanna he meant was Zivanna Mariah Electra? Ah, why am I curious like this?' Anderson thought as he massaged his forehead and walked toward his room.
Alfredo ran into the room. He was very surprised when he saw Leonardo sitting in his chair."Good morning sir, sorry I'm late,"he said, then bowed his body."Good, if you know your mistakes." Leonardo replied, standing up."Sit down. I have something to ask." Leonardo looked at Alfredo. Alfredo stepped toward his chair and sat down."Where is your sister Zivanna? Zivanna Mariah Electra?"Alfredo's heart pounded at Leonardo's question. He was surprised but tried to act normal. He remembered well, it had been almost a year that Leonardo had stopped asking about Zivanna after Alfredo told him that Zivanna had no more news. Since then, he never asked again."Are you listening to me, Alfredo?" Alfredo was surprised and raised his face to look at Leonardo. "Yes, I listen to you sir," answered Alfredo."Stop calling me sir. I don't like it. If you listen to me, then give me an answer as soon as possible." "I real
Leonardo walked faster. Alfredo and Isabell were very surprised by Leonardo's arrival. "Isabell? You..." "We talked about work." Alfredo cuts Leonardo's conversation. "Sorry, Mr. Leonardo and Mr. Alfredo. I'll be home now. Mr. Alfredo, thank you for your help." Isabell said, then walked away from Alfredo and Leonardo. "Please come in." Alfredo said to Leonardo. "Did you cook something?" Leonardo asked and he walked toward the kitchen. "I haven't cooked anything. Would you like me to cook something for you?" Alfredo followed Leonardo into the kitchen. "No, I'm going to have coffee," replied Leonardo. "Okay. Sit down. I'll make coffee for you."Thank you. "Leonardo said. He walked into the room looking at the painting on the wall. He hoped to get a clue about Zivanna. "Here's the coffee." Alfredo's voice surprised him a little. Leonardo sat down and started drinking coffee. "Are you just visiting me or is there something that makes you come here?" Alfredo began to speak. Leonard
Anderson parked his car in Leonardo's yard. "Why is it so quiet?" He said alone, then walked quickly. "Welcome, sir." A man greets at the entrance. "Thank you." Anderson replied and entered. He had come to Leonardo's house many times, so he headed straight to the second floor, to the special room Leonardo had prepared for parties. Two men greeted him at the door. He immediately entered. "I don't see any other cars out there, only Leonardo's cars, why are there so many people here?" Anderson said while trying to find Leonardo among the people in the room. "There he is." Anderson said, then walked toward the corner of the room. He saw Leonardo talking with a woman.Hey bro! "Anderson exclaimed and waved his hand. Leonardo looked away. He smiled, then walked over to Anderson. "Sorry, I'm late," said Anderson. "No problem, I understand. Come on." Leonardo replied and invited Anderson to join him. "Did I miss the new rules at your party? There is no car ahead. How did these people
Good morning. How was your night?" Anderson entered Zivanna's room and greeted Alfredo. "Good morning Doctor Anderson. My night, to be precise, our night was not very good. She had pain in her head that kept her from sleeping. She was just sleeping." Alfredo answered while looking at Zivanna's face. "I'm sorry. I didn't have time to visit her last night. I'll check on her when she wakes up." Anderson replied. "Thank you. No problem. I have to go back home and get myself ready for work. I'll be back at lunchtime. Breakfast for her will be here soon," said Alfredo."Okay. Don't worry, I'm here with her. If you're busy, I can help you take care of her, if you don't mind. " Anderson said as he checked the medicines on the table. "Thank you Doctor Anderson. I'm worried it's going to be a bother for you," said Alfredo. "No. I would be very happy if I could help you. Go ahead and let me take care of her." Anderson assured Alfredo. "Alright, Thank you. I'm leaving," said Alfredo with
Zivanna was surprised by Alfredo's sudden appearance. "Oh God, you're freaking me out." Alfredo walked over to Zivanna. "What happened? Why are you panicking?" Zivanna's face was confused. Her beautiful eyes grew bigger. His forehead creased. "Where's your cell phone?" Alfredo looked at the table. "It's on the table." "I can see it." "Then why do you ask?" "Why don't you answer my calls and reply to my messages? I thought something was wrong with you. I'm worried." Alfredo took out Zivanna's cell phone. "Silent mode. I'm reading and don't want to be disturbed." Zivanna replied casually.Alfredo paid close attention to the book Zivanna was reading. "I never bought this book. Where did you get this book?" Alfredo starts to get suspicious. "Dr. Anderson lent me the book. It's great. I like it," replied Zivanna. "Good. I hope you like breakfast and lunch. "Thank you, I like it but I feel a little bored. I suddenly want to eat Korean food." Zivanna looked hopefully at Alfredo. "I t
"Zivanna, my sister. I'm sorry for making you angry and crying. I am not only your brother, but I am both mother and father to you. That is the reason why I strive for your happiness. Life is only once. If we make the right choice, then our life will be happy and if we make the wrong choice, so there is no happiness until the end of life. You have to live happily. Our father and mother in heaven will be happy if they see us happy. I hope you understand what I mean. I love you, my sister. " Alfredo wrote on a piece of paper and then put it in the book he had just bought."Hope you like it." Alfredo said, then went to the hospital. He could no longer hold back his anxiety. He didn't dare call Zivanna because he knew Zivanna was still angry. He did not enter Zivanna's room. He left the book she bought for Zivanna through a nurse and chose to go home and will come back tomorrow. In Zivanna's room, Doctor Anderson is examining Zivanna's head wounds. "The pain is starting to decr
Anderson took a sip of orange juice then looked back at the book he was reading. -10 Steps to Say Love-, is the title of the book he is reading. "Hey! Are you sure you don't want to swim? If you don't stop reading that book, I'll splash you! Come on, you said you wanted to swim. Why now I'm the one swimming and you're reading instead?" Leonardo shouted from the pool not far from where Anderson sat. Anderson didn't answer. He just waved his hand without looking at Leonardo and continued reading. He plans to tell Zivanna his feelings before Zivanna leaves the hospital. "Hmm, I have to practice." Anderson said alone. "Which woman made you like this?" Suddenly Leonardo was in front of Anderson."Tell me and I'll return your book." With a very fast movement, Leonardo picked up the book Anderson was reading. Anderson had no other choice when he saw Leonardo lift his book high as if he were going to release it into the pool. "Alright. You won. Come here and I'll tell you!" exclaimed And
Alfredo thought hard about how to cancel his appointment with Leonardo. He didn't really want to disappoint Leonardo, but he also didn't want his plan to come to Isabell's house to be a failure. He tried so many times to find a way out but he still couldn't. He had to make a choice between Leonardo or Isabell. Isabell didn't really matter to him, but he couldn't hold back his male desire.He wants to finish what happened this afternoon at the office. Time is slipping away. When he was in despair, his phone trembled. "That must be Leonardo." he murmured and then pulled his phone out of his pocket. True guess. Leonardo sends a message.[Alfredo, I'm sorry. I think we should reschedule our meeting. I have to fly to America tonight. I have more important things to take care of. When I come back, we'll have a drink. I promise I will. I'm sorry.] Alfredo was not disappointed but pleased to read Leonardo's message."At least I'm free of guilt because I didn't cancel it. Than
Alfredo was surprised when a waiter came with a few bottles of drinks. He looked deeply into Leonardo's face. He felt a little confused and also suspicious. "I didn't know you prepared all this," Alfredo said, holding the bottle in front of him. Leonardo laughed softly. "Don't pretend to be surprised. We haven't enjoyed life like this in a long time. Come on, you can't refuse. Everything is in front of us. Alfredo laughed softly at Leonardo's words. However, he still felt suspicious of Leonardo. "Are we really not allowed to use our phones? I mean, are you serious?" Alfredo asked to be sure. He thought, maybe Leonardo was just joking. "I'm serious," Leonardo replied in a determined tone. Alfredo had no choice. He tucked his cell phone into his trouser pocket. Leonardo smiled broadly at him. He really used the opportunity to carry out the secret plan he had prepared. This time, Alfredo really didn't know. (elsewhere, in Zivanna's apartment) Zivanna had just finished taking a sho
Zivanna Mariah Electra is now in a very luxurious apartment on the twentieth floor. She walked briefly around the room. All the facilities it needs are complete. She entered her room and threw herself onto the large bed. "Beautiful room," she muttered and looked around the room. She took out her cell phone and sent a message to her brother Alfredo. Even though her heart is rebellious, she doesn't want her life to be controlled by her brother, but she doesn't get angry or hate or even resent her brother. She obeyed everything her brother said. She got up and walked to the window and looked outside and saw the bracelet in her hand. "I can't lie to myself. I miss you, the owner of this bracelet. Why does my brother hate you so much?" Zivanna said quietly. Her face looks sad. The memories of the past flashed through her memory."Leonardo Davidson...." Zivanna said the name of the man she missed. She took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly. She walked back to her bed and la
Anderson held Zivanna's hand tight. His heart was very hurt, but he tried to hold back his feelings. "I promise I will not forget you. You are a great friend and also a good doctor. Thank you for taking care of me and helping me." Zivanna said and then hugged Anderson one more time. "One hug won't be enough. I'll miss you." Anderson whispered softly. He did not have the opportunity to express his feelings. He planned to say it later the next time he visited Zivanna. "I will also miss you. I am not allowed by my brother to give my address to anyone, including you. But don't worry, I have written it on a piece of paper and put it under the pillow. After I leave, you can take it." Zivanna whispered very softly. Anderson nodded. "Miss, it's time. We must go now." A man who had been standing by the window said, he is a person who works for Alfredo."Just a moment, Gillian," replied Zivanna with a sullen face."All right, miss, just two minutes. You know I'm just doing my job. I
"Please sit." "Thank you," said Alfredo to Anderson. "I hope I don't bother you," continued Alfredo. "Absolutely not." Anderson smiled. "Thank you. I'm sorry for saying this. I thought Zivanna was getting better and I thought about taking her away. What do you think?" Alfredo's face looked very serious. After a moment's silence, Anderson sighed and then answered. "Yes, you can already take her away. I'll call you to check her condition again." Anderson replied. "Alright. Thank you Doctor Anderson. You have done your best for my sister. I really appreciate that. Thanks again for all your kindness." Alfredo shook Anderson's hand."No problem. I'm doing my job. Zivanna is also my friend. I'm glad I could help her." Anderson replied. "All right. I'm leaving for the office. Later this afternoon I'll come to pick her up." Alfredo said. Anderson escorted him out of the room.'Oh my God, what should I do? Why does my heart hurt so much? My courage is gone. My plan failed.' Ander
"Sir...." "Don't continue if it's not good news you want to say." Leonardo interrupted before Filipo finished. "Mr. Alfredo met a woman." Filipo said with certainty. "I want to see the woman's face," said Leonardo. Filipo handed over his cellphone. "Not what I was expecting. Keep investigating him." Leonardo put Filipo's cell phone on the table and left, leaving Filipo confused. "I don't understand. It should be an easy job, but why is Filipo so slow? Just a waste of time. I have to do something. I would be crazy if I just waited for the uncertain," Leonardo was well dressed. Her appearance looks perfect. Xander opened the car door when he saw Leonardo appear. "St. Thomas' Hospital." Leonardo said, then put on his sunglasses."OK, sir," replied Xander. 'I knew it. Alfredo and Isabell have a special relationship. Hmmm, it looks like I can use Isabell to get what I want.' Leonardo thought. He canceled his departure to America. He was very curious about what Alfredo was doing in the
