Chapter 25

She slowly opened her eyes, the scene in front was so blurry. She blinked once, still blurry and she blinked again. She went down away from her bed, with a sleepy eyes, she went to the bathroom. She washed her face with water. She looked at the mirror and fixed her hair.

"It looks good. I like it." She felt chilly and touched her forehead. It's hot. She was wondering.

"Am I really sick? Lately my body felt so tired and I felt so weak.." She sighed and went to her bed..

She laid down and closed her eyes. She slept and her clock somehow did not sound very clear then sounded ringing so loudly. She quickly opened her eyes, the ringing sound woke her up. She stared at her clock while she still laying down, her body seems did not want to move. She tried to find a strength but, somehow her body did not listened to her.

"Ha.. It's so hot.." A knocking sound seems to be heard from her door. She looked at the door, her throat felt so dry. She can not talk, can not scream and asked for help. She laid there in her bed, struggling with her sudden fever.

Bam.. bam.. bam

Suddenly, the sound of someone trying to barge in. That sound then get louder and louder. Her heartbeat was beating fast, her breath which did not stable a while ago became much worse. She tried to catch a breath, but the fever weakens her. She was so panicked. She looked at the door, her eyes trying to find anything to protect her from that unknown person in front of her door. Then, the sound stopped. Her beating heartbeat and breath after that became calmer and stable.

Click..

"Ha.. What's that?!!" Suddenly, a click sounded. The door was widely opened and there was the unknown person. Her eyes lowered down and she closed her eyes down, she sighed. She smiled, it seems like she knew who was the person. She looked at him who was coming closer to her. She put her hand at the back of his neck and held him. He looked at her and smile. He carried her to his car.

"Mike.. Ha.. Why are you here?" She was sitting at the back of the seat in his car. She was looking at his back which was trying to find comfortable position to drive. Hearing her question, he looked back and gently touched her hand.

"I don't know, maybe you led me here.." Her eyes was wide open and her face suddenly became red. She looked down at her hand which he touched a while ago.

"We're going to hospital.. Your face was very red just a second ago.." She was panicked. She did not want he to know that she was blushing.

"Why didn't you call me if you're feeling sick? I can take care of you." He looked at the mirror and she looked at his face which was reflecting there.

"I'm sorry.. I thought I'm fine.." She looked down. Playing with her finger again.

He looked back at her and then focusing on his drive. "It hurts me as your boyfriend that makes me seem to not care about you..."

Her eyes widen out. She looked up. She saw these eyes. His puppy eyes reflect at the mirror. She gently bit her lips. Her finger was moving fast as she played it. 'Maybe I should call him yesterday..' Slowly the car slowed down, she looked around and the building in front of her seems so big that it seems like a giant. He opened his belt and went out of his car. He rushed to her and opened the car door for her.

"It's okay.. I.. I can open it myself.. Mike.." She looked at him and her eyes moving left to right. 'Why it's so awkward?!!!' Slowly he lent his hand, he glance at her and smiled.

"Don't you want to accept my hand? I'm waiting..." He looked at her with his puppy eyes.

She looked and her heartbeat raced. Slowly she grabbed his hand, she put out her feet and get out of his car. He held her hand and went into the building. She looked at the sign. 'Hospital Caesar, huh? It's the famous hospital..." She stopped. She looked at Mike's back, she saw it seem he stopped too. He looked at Monica.

"Why're you stopping? Is there a problem?" He looked at her with confusion.

"Of course it is, the.. the hospital bill must be expensive.." His eyes shrink and he closed her mouth.

"Wait a minute.. Ahem! .." His face was red trying to not laugh. But seems his efforts was in vain.

"Ahem! Hahahahahahahaha! I thought it was something serious.. Hahaha.. Turned out you just worried about the bill.. Haha!!" He teased her, she pouted and hit his shoulder.

"Ouch.. That's hurt.. Can't you be gentler? You don't want your boyfriend to tease you, right? Hahahaha!" She got even more angry and hugged herself.

"Haha.. Ho.. Haha.. Okay..okay.. I'm not going to laugh at you again. I'm sorry to say but this hospital is my mom's." She widen her eyes, she then turned back and looked at him.

"Wait.. Isn't your mom a housewife? How she can be the owner?!!"

"Hahaha.. Well, she is .. but she works as the president of the hospital too."

"Then, how could I not recognize her? That's weird.."

He sighed. "She doesn't like to show herself up, but she seems to love her job very much.."

She glanced at him, she touched her forehead. "Are you okay, Mon? You should meet the doctor.."

She opened her eyes. "So that's mean you're hiding this from us?!!"

This time, his eyes widen. She saw through him. " Yeah, my bad.. But it wasn't my decision, it was her."

"Hahaha! Now that makes sense." She smirked at him.

"What was it?"

"Nothing, you don't need to know.."

He pouted.

"Why?.. So you're not gonna tell me?"

She smiled. "Yeah!
