Clara's feelings

7:00 pm ...

Clara was on her way home escorted by two bodyguard and a driver. The woman who was trapped in the body of someone who had died sat silently in the passenger seat with a blank stare at the view of the atmosphere of the city of San Francisco.

'I miss Michael... Could he be in the hospital right now? Could it be that he's still waiting for me who's still in a coma there?' Clara wondered as she imagined sweet memories with Michael.

Feeling very curious about the news about her lover, Clara also ventured to call the driver.

"Jerry, can you take me to the hospital where I was treated first?" he asked.

"Of course, madam," replied Jerry, focusing on driving.

Clara heaved a sigh of relief, then turned to take her phone which was stored in a small black branded bag that she had been carrying with her for a long time. She tried to contact Nathan so she wouldn't wait too long, somehow she always wanted to keep the guy's feelings …maybe because she had occupied his wife's body.

"Hello, Nathan... I think I'm going home a little late because I wanted to see Casey for a bit," she said when he connected with Nathan.

"How long are you going to see Casey?" asked Nathan.

"I'm just a moment," said Clara then glanced at the white wristwatch that was attached to her right hand. "Maybe I'll be home around eight o'clock..."

"Okay, take good care of yourself, honey. I love you."

"I love you too," Clara said then immediately hung up the phone. She exhaled roughly, imagining the days she still had to spend as Nathan's wife, and having to find problems about herself or Clara.

After 10 minutes of traveling, Clara finally arrived at the hospital. She got out of the car, then walked into the hospital area followed by her two bodyguard. The woman walked a little hastily because she didn't have much time.. she walked down the corridor until she entered the elevator and finally arrived at the floor where the room where she was being treated was located.

"You guys just wait here," Clara said to her two bodyguard who was wearing black suits.

"Be careful, madam," said one of the bodyguard with short hair.

Clara immediately opened the door to the room, entered immediately and her eyes immediately fell on Michael who was eating together with Mia on the couch. The woman was silent with pain and wonder because her lover seemed close to her cousin.

"Clara," said Michael.

"I ... I just wanted to see Casey. I just happened to be passing here," Clara said with a flat look. She glanced at Mia who looked relaxed in black pants combined with a maroon hoodie and red headgear, while Michael wore gray jeans combined with a black sweater. 'Are they always alone like this while taking care of me? Since when did they get along?'

Michael put his food on the table, then got up and walked over to Clara who was now sitting beside the bed looking at Casey.

"Are you fully recovered?" he asked.

"Yes," said Clara without looking up. "Then how about Casey?" She asked

"As you can see ... There is no progress at all, even the doctor said the hope of awakening is very slim," Michael replied angrily.

"That means there's a possibility she'll die."

"Do not say that ... I was never ready to lose her Because I haven't had time to make her happy," Michael exclaimed, then position himself standing on the left side of the bed. "I've always waited for her forever."

Clara sighed then turned to look at Mia who was busy eating burgers. after that, she looked back at Michael who was daydreaming at Casey who just lay there without moving an inch. Hmm, because her soul is in Clara.

"Does that mean you'll be staying here tonight?" She asked.

"Yes, because at noon I have to carry out my responsibilities at the company," Michael replied.

"You're going to stay with his cousin?"

"Yeah .... She said she couldn't sleep well and wanted to accompany Casey with me," said Michael occasionally glancing at Mia.

Clara is silent with very strange, suspicious, and annoying feelings for Mia who pretends to care about her even though she used to be annoying.

'I think she's going to tease Michael,' she thought sickly.

Until a few minutes passed, Clara and Michael just chatted a little. After that, she said goodbye to go home because she did not want to make Nathan wait too long. After all, her heart ached to see Michael close to Mia and even going to stay there together.

In his luxurious mansion, Nathan already looks neat in black basic pants combined with a yellowish-white shirt and black coat, then combs his hair in a puff front style with a slightly messy top, then sprays his favorite Woody scented perfume.

"Perfect...I hope tonight will be the most beautiful night for us," Nathan said with a smile looking at his reflection in the mirror. After that, he turned to look at the table near the bed where she had prepared a dress in a black box. "And she would be so beautiful in that dress. But why hasn't she come back yet... Did something happen?"

Nathan was starting to worry about Clara even though it wasn't eight o'clock yet. The man walked to the balcony terrace while trying to contact his wife.

"Hello, Honey. Have you left for home?" he asked.

"Yes, I'm almost there," Clara answered, sounding sluggish.

"Okay then ... I'm waiting for you," Nathan said then hung up the phone. He continued walking towards the balcony terrace until he crossed the door and then closed it. .on the terrace there, he looked at the table and chairs were neatly installed and arranged dishes on it.

'I'd better wait for her here,' he thought and walked over to the chair.

Clara put her phone back. She looked back at the dark atmosphere of the street, now lit by building lights, poles, or vehicles. The woman kept thinking about Michael and Mia looking close.

'What will Mia do? Why was she suddenly so close to Michael when I was in a coma? did she do this on purpose because she thought I was going to die?' Clara monologued with herself, then let out a shaky breath. 'I don't even know After the 99 days I've passed, I can return in my body or not…or I'll die after realizing all I don't know.'

Until a few minutes passed, Jerry stopped the car in the courtyard of Nathan's mansion. The bodyguard immediately opened the door for Clara, letting her out while the other bodyguards took the suitcase containing Clara's belongings which were taken from her parents' house.

Clara walked through the main door to the upstairs room. She opened the bedroom door, then entered and saw the quiet atmosphere.

"Where's Nathan?"

Clara glanced around until her eyes fell on a medium-sized box, which was on the table near the bed.

Drett... Drett...

Her phone rings. Clara immediately took the sophisticated object from her bag, then saw an incoming call from Nathan while sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Hello, Nathan."

"Please wear that dress, I'm waiting for you on the balcony," Nathan called out in his soft voice. "Don't come here if you haven't worn the dress."

Clara was silent then the call was disconnected. She put her phone in any direction, then looked at the box on the table and immediately took it.

'Oh my God. What am I going to do with Nathan tonight?' Clara wondered, then opened the box. She saw a reddish-white dress complete with heels and jewelry.

Clara turned to stare at the balcony, imagining Nathan was waiting for her there. 'If Clara were still alive she would be very happy tonight,' she thought already guessing Nathan had a surprise or something romantic for tonight.
