When I came out of the tent, I couldn't avoid thinking about Braylon's question to Bryce because Braylon himself, who was his cousin, couldn't know what was going through his mind. I just held my breath and when I was about to go to the canopy tent that was closest to me to help another volunteer nurse, I saw a lady carrying her child and a trace of concern on her face, and add to that the speed of her walking that she is almost on all fours. I immediately took action and got a wheelchair and met the mother and daughter who were still far from other people. "Thanks a lot." The lady thanked her and then immediately sat her daughter in the wheelchair and she pushed it there. I immediately followed them as I watched the girl. She has red rashes and it is obvious that she is having trouble swallowing and that she is nauseous. Because of that, I was immediately convinced of what illness she had, although I am not sure yet, I cannot ignore the symptoms I see in the child because if proven,
Braylon and Bryce drove off in their different and beloved cars. The medical mission for today isn't over yet, so I can't rest yet, but that's okay because, besides the fact that I'm not tired yet, I'd rather help the people here than stare at home. "Gia." I turned around when I heard that familiar voice of Dra. McKenna. "Yes, Doctor? Do you need anything?" The shock on her face was obvious when my conversation with her became formal, although since we met again, I have treated her the same way. She is a doctor and I am a nurse. We are in the same field and work so it is only appropriate that I be formal in my conversation with her. "You can c-call me M-Mommy, Gia." Sadness immediately appeared in her voice. "No need, Doctora, besides I'm not used to calling anyone at that address. I have lived without someone I can call Mommy for so many years.” I was cold towards her causing her face to become depressed and her shoulders to fall automatically. "Gia, honey.." She called me, causi
I don't know how many minutes I stood where I was because of what that man Bryce had said before I started walking home again. I passed a few more houses before I finally arrived at the house where Dra. McKenna and I were staying. "Do you think she'll like what I cooked, Dad?" I automatically frowned when I heard that Doctora was talking to someone inside. "Of course. That's your daughter's favorite, Gwen. I'm sure she'll like it even more and you cooked it." My eyes widened when I heard that familiar voice of Grandpa. He's here? Since when? Why didn't he tell me he was coming here? I immediately ran into the house and then ducked into the kitchen just to see Dra. McKenna was preparing food on the table while her laptop was facing her. That's when I realized that he had just made a video called Grandpa. "Gia, you're here," Doctora announced when she saw me, and then she immediately presented the laptop to me and there I saw Grandpa smiling at me. "Good evening, Grandpa." I greete
I don't know what time I fell asleep again since I woke up because of that bad dream. I even woke up earlier than my alarm clock until it rang so I immediately got up. But I also spent a few minutes in a stupor until I decided to go to the bathroom to take a shower and do my routines. After that, I left the house, and just like on my first day, Doctora McKenna was already there at the kitchen table waiting for me. The food she cooked for that morning was also ready there. I would not have accompanied her again and would have turned away from her which was immediately the result of the fall of her shoulders and the immediate look of sadness on her face when the sound of my stomach growling dominated the silence of the house. Because of that, I firmly closed my eyes due to annoyance because I was sure Doctora heard that. "Come here, honey. E-Eat first.” She was so nice to me that I just sighed as I walked closer to the seat closest to me. I remained bowed but Doctora's sweet smile did n
I don't know where Bryce and I are going but I still can't take my eyes off him. Those scars on his body are still bothering me but at the same time, I can't help but admire his body. He is now wearing white long sleeves while his slacks and suit are dark blues. His clothes fit him well and his ex was so strong that I can understand why the female employees who had just boarded the elevator after a few floors that we passed were whispering like that. "Boss is handsome, right?" "What are you? Don't make a noise there." "I just can't help but admire each of his features." "I understand you, but maybe because of your admiration, we will lose our jobs, so shut up." I couldn't help but grin because I couldn't stop laughing when I heard that conversation between the two employees in front of us. I don't know if Bryce heard or saw that in his peripheral vision, so he suddenly looked at me and gave me his evil look again. Until suddenly the elevator rang and stopped and suddenly Bryce pul
"Are you flirting with me, Mr. Bryce Phoenix Huxley?” I didn't see any reaction on his face but I could read the amazement at the same time as the surprise in his eyes. A few more seconds passed without anyone else speaking between us again and the amount of time we stared at each other gave me a strange feeling. I also feel like I'm holding my breath as if I'm underwater. "Is that what you are feeling, Ms. Gia Blythe McKenna?” Until suddenly he spoke and because I still didn't take my eyes off his face, I saw how a silly smile drew on his lips. I swallowed hard because of his hot and fragrant breath hitting my face. “Yes.” That was the answer that came out of my mouth which surprised him again but there was still no reaction on his face. Is this one a robot? If I don't look into his eyes, I won't be able to read any reaction on his face. I could feel the strange warmth in me caused by our position but it seemed to sting even more when Bryce came closer to me causing me to swallow
“Ms. McKenna will be mine for that night.” “Ms. McKenna will be mine for that night.” “Ms. McKenna will be mine for that night.” I don't know how many times I've been stunned by this while Grandma Briella led me on a walk to the restaurant where we were going to eat for dinner. I honestly wanted to refuse her offer but I was too deaf to the repeated echoes of Bryce saying that. Mine? What does he mean by mine? He likes messing up with my mind! "Dear, what do you want to eat?" Does he even know what a woman can think when he uses such terms? "Gia, what's your order?" Maybe he's just used to using that term. "Gia?" Wait. Used to? So with all the women he talks to, is he like that? Am I assuming? Damn! “Gia Blythe?” My vision returned to the present when I felt Grandma Briella holding my hand at the same time she called me. "Are you s-saying something, G-Grandma?" Full of shame and doubt I asked Grandma who suddenly grinned at me and then looked back at the menu in her hand.
We have already finished arranging the things we will need for this day and Braylon still can't think of a way to get Saighna to agree to be his partner in the upcoming anniversary party of Grandma Briella and Grandpa Elizalde although he helped first. He was earlier in the arrangement until we were finally done. Some time passed when the residents of the island came here again to take a look. "Come on. Cheer up.” I encouraged him when I saw him stunned while sitting next to my desk while arranging the files on top. "I don't know what to do to at least melt her rock heart." He said with a frown as he was thinking deeply about the way he could do for the girl. “Shh. Ask first if there is a heart or not." I was about to break a trip to him, causing him to suddenly look at me and give me an evil look. I just laughed because of his behavior. To be honest, I have only recently seen a man like him who will make an effort to think of a way just for the woman he likes at a time when most o
