Chapter 27: The Flower of Camellia

Later on, they arrived at the hospital. They check on Jordyn's condition and give her medicine to let her be calm. For a while, Jordyn fell asleep in the wardroom. Emmanuel just staying there beside her and accompany her for that night.

He gazes at her face while she is sleeping. He gently rubs her hair. He looks at her face with sadness. He feels regret that he forget to reply to her messages before. He feels guilty to not accompany her before.

Then, Bella comes into their room. ''Hey... is she okay?''

''Yeah. She going to sleep after eating the medicines. She just gets a little fever. Actually, she just got out of a fever before.''

''Oh, it's okay. She will be better after she wakes up.'' Bella comforts him.

''So, is this the girl you always talk about? Jordyn Jessa?'' Bella asks curiously.

He nods his head slowly. ''Yes. She is.''

''You still didnt tell her the truth? She still didnt know you?''

''No...not yet. I will find the right time to tell her...''

''Okay, I understand. But, this time...you can slowly tell her. I think she will understand. Alright, I go out first. Please take care of her carefully. She might be scared after she wakes up.''

''Okay. Bella, Thank you.''

''You're welcome.''

After an hour, Jordyn was awake. She slowly opens her eyes and she saw Emmanuel asleep while sitting beside her.

I look at his face and slowly rub his cheeks softly. I was relieved to see him by my side. With him by my side...I feel reassured. I held his hand tightly...I don't feel to let his hand go. I was scared at the same time...I didnt realize that my tears fall.

Suddenly, Emmanuel wakes up. I quickly wipe out my tears but my eyes are still glassy with tears. I can't hide my tears in front of him. ''Hey...are you awake? Are you feel better? Did you feel any pain?''

''I'm okay...'' I force myself to give him a smile.

''Jessa...I'm sorry...I am really sorry.'' He said while slowly pull me into his arms.

''I'm sorry I didnt with you all the time. I am really worried about you. I'm sorry because I'm not with you when you face this problem.''

''It's okay. After all, we didnt know these things will happen. I just...don't know what will happen if there no one else to come to help me at that time. I feel grateful that the woman helps me.''

''Oh, that's right. Where that woman? I still didnt thanking her. I need to meet her.''

''Don't worry, she will come later. Soon or later, you will gonna meet her.''

''What do you mean? Do you know that girl?''

''She is my sister. She also a doctor at this hospital.''

''Really?? Oh...um...I suddenly feel guilty. Did I make bad inception with her?''

He chuckles. ''Dont worry. She is nice. She always wants to meet you since before.''

''You tell about me at her?''

''Yes. Why?''

''Um...nothing.''

Later on, I was surprised to see him bring me back to his house. I wondering why he takes me back to his home and not to my house. Or did his family at his house right now? Did he want to introduce me to his family?

I just follow him going inside and once I enter his house, it was silence. There was no one else there. I suddenly feel upset. Maybe...he still not ready to show me to his family. Or...did he not serious with me?

''Jessa...just take your seat first.''

''Mm...'' I just pouting my mouth as I feel annoyed. Did he take me here to just ask me to sit here? What did he take me for? I murmured by myself there.

After a few minutes, I still feel bored. I look around at his house. While waiting for him, I just casually walking around his house. Anyway, his house really huge. Then, I saw a beautiful backyard there.

I don't know he has this amazing place. Then, suddenly my eyes fixed to some things not far from there. I come closer to that place and I was surprised to see a camellia flower at the back corner there.

It's my favorite flower! Does he have this flower? How he plant this flower here? I was feeling excited to see the flowers. I was smiling by myself there.

''Jessa...!''

I looked back when I heard him call me. I was grinning when I saw him standing there while holding a red camellia flower in his hand. He walks slowly headed toward me.

''What are you doing, Karson?''

''I just want to show you my sincere heart...''

''For what?''

''To sincerely loving you all the time. Not only all the time but in every second and every minute. Jessa...I love you...''

''Um...why you suddenly like this? Are you okay? Or...did the one who was standing in front of me right now is not really you?'' I chuckling.

He suddenly changes his facial expression. Actually, he wants to tell the truth to her at that time...but...

''Dont worry, I don't care who you are. I love you with all my heart. Karson...'' I coming closer to him and lean on him.

''Karson...thank you because you show to me once again about true love. I admit that before...I...I really can't move on from Simon. I admit that I can't really love anyone else besides him...but this time, I was lucky to meet you in my life.''

After hearing that words from her, Emmanuel suddenly feels guilty. He doesn't know how to tell her. He dont wants to make her feel hurt anymore. He is confused to tell her at that time.

''Jessa...if one day... I have broken your heart...will you forgive me? Will you understand why I do that to you? Or...will you forgive me if I lie to you? And the most important... will you still love me as I am?''

Jordyn suddenly feels strange about his questions. ''Why do you ask me about that questions? Is there anything you hiding from me?''

''No...I'm just randomly asking you about that. I am just curious to know your answer.''

''Hmm...let me think first about that. It is really difficult for me to answer. Or...if we want to make it the easy way. Let's just part away from each other!''

''What?? You want to leave me?''

''I'm just kidding! I will not leave you, my love!''

''I will remember your words, my love!''

For a moment, both of them lying down together on the grass. While looking at the stars above the sky.

''Karson...how do you know I like camellia flower?''

''I'm just guessing!''

''What?''

''Okay. Okay...actually...I have a magic power! I have this power since I was a little.''

''Karson!''

''Okay, okay. I tell you seriously this time. I...actually saw a picture of a camellia flower at your workstation. Look like you really treasure that picture. So...I just think that you might be really like that flower.''

''Oh...I see...actually...I really like this flower because when I was a little kid before...I always crying alone at the playground near our house. I always run there and crying out loud if I feel sad. Until one day...when one little boy with his mom going there and play there, the little boy come to me and give me this flower.''

''Why I didnt know about these stories before?''

''Of course, you dont know. We still haven't met yet. Dont I telling you right now?''

''Yeah, but why before this you...!''

''Why? What happens before?''

''Oh, nothing...I mean...why are you telling me this right now?''

''Are you jealous?''

''Jealous?? Oh, come on...I'm not that type of man, my love.''

''Really? I think you jealous of that little boy!'' I just laughed out loud there.

''Jessa! I'm not!''

''Yes, you are!''

''Jessa, Come here!'' He tried to catch her. She was run around there. She happily to teases him.

''I don't want!''

''If you dont come here, I let you sleep outside here!''

''Oh, did you dare to do that to me?''

''Yes! Do you want to dare me? Okay, bye! Goodnight!'' He quickly walks away from there and he quickly locks the glass door. He stuck out his tongue at her.

I was laughing to see his reaction. He really looks childish. Then, I deliberately make something to trick him. ''Karson...Karson...''

''Jessa...! What happened?'' He runs quickly toward her.

''My head...my head...''

''What happened to your head? Did you feel hurt?''

''My head...my head...in pain because...because I always thinking about you!'' I burst into laughter and run away inside.''

''Shorty!! You!''

''I got you, my love!''

And just like that...Emmanuel lost his chance once again to telling the truth to her. He still unwilling to tell her at the time because she dont wants to ruin her feeling. After all, she just gets a trauma about what happened to her before and he didnt dare to let her in grief.

At that moment...they just happily spending time together. Without thinking anything, they just happy to have each other. Even though they still have many secrets between them...all many things that still unclear...their heart still in each other.
