After a while, she came back and Ethan immediately noticed that she wasn't feeling well. "Ethan let's go," she said weakly. "Are you fine? I think we should go to the hospital," he said. "No. Take me home. I'll be fine," she said before he got her jacket and helped her wear it. She led the way while he came after her making sure she was okay. She sat leaning her head on the seat while clutching her belly tightly. He understood that they must be cramps and said," I think we should go to the hospital and get you some pills. You can't go home like this." "I have pills home," she said in a low voice. "Do you need anything? Anything to eat or?" "No. I just want to go home," she said as she closed her eyes. He knew this was normal but it disturbed him seeing her in pain. He drove the car slowly, as he often glanced at her. A long while later, he reached her house and said," We're home." Before she could open the door, he caught her hand and said," Take care of yourself. Don't forget to take your medicine. And tell me if you need anything." "Really?" "Yes, just tell me." "I need a kiss right now," she said. "I meant anything that can help you in this situation." "Of course it's going to help me." He knew she was tricking him but he gave in anyway because he also wanted to. He captured her lips slowly, kissing her gently as if assuring her that she was going to be okay. Not liking the light kiss, she deepened the kiss and parted his lips before entering her tongue to kiss every nook of his mouth. He reciprocated the kiss with the same intensity. He finally pulled away and said," Have a good night Bella. You need to go inside." She pecked his lips and said," Have a good night too Mr Carter. Dream about me because you're going to be in mine." With that, she went inside happily. She noticed that there was a huge change between them.
On his way, Ethan wasn't understanding what was happening to him. These feelings brewing inside of him. Were they true? Was it lust? Was he just lonely? And how did she feel about him? Did she like him? Was it lust? He couldn't get a proper answer. He decided to speak with Alex about this.
Meanwhile in Luna's room, she was looking at the sleeping Dylan with tears in her eyes. She didn't know what she would ever tell him about his father's whereabouts when she herself was hurting. She honestly hadn't expected Graham to take this long. What if he will never wake up-No, she shouldn't be thinking about such things. If he never wakes up, she will die. The only thing keeping her going was their baby. She needed to be strong for him. What if he had already woken up and forgot about her? No it's not possible. She looked at his photograph. She made a huge photograph of him as her wallpaper in her room. It was on the wall and in it, he was smiling with his gaze focused on something that seemed amusing. Her heart ached on seeing him and released a sigh before curling herself to sleep.
The next morning, Bella was sleeping when her phone rang jolting her from sleep. The moment she saw who it was, she immediately sat up and answered it. She was very surprised because this is the first time he has ever called her. "Hello. Good morning," said Ethan. "Good morning Mr Carter." "You seem to be from sleep. How are you? Did you take your medicine?" "Yes thank you. I'm good now. I miss you," she said waiting for his response. "Okay. Take care. I called to check if you're okay. Have a nice day." With that, he hang up and she lightly chuckled.
Meanwhile in Blue City, Abigail was sitting on Graham's bed massaging his palms as she narrated how her week went. The doctors had told them that him always hearing voices he's familiar with would help in bringing him back. "I celebrated my birthday in the orphanage. You would have seen the kids so happy and lively. I gave them a lot of things. And I also secured the Cenidoza deal that I told you about. I'm going to be their model and Dad is so proud of me. I'm hoping you wake up as soon as you can. We miss you so much," she whispered the last line while tears pooled in her eyes. Abigail has always been kind. After making sure that he was fine, she left the room. She had been doing that for the past three months every week. Their father's condition was never stable after that unfortunate incident.
