LOGINI opened the door. The doctor and nurse were still beside Arzhel. I heard the doctor asking questions to Arzhel, then the doctor faced the nurse beside him and said some medical terms I didn’t understand. I looked at the woman beside me, she still looked worried. She looked only a little bit scare
“I just found out that he did this to Arzhel!” Veronica said. “B-but how?” I asked, confused. I checked my phone that was in my pocket. “I didn’t receive any calls from the police about him,” I said. But as soon as I said that, my phone rang. It was the New York police. Veronica and I looked
“I remember everything now.” I blinked once. The thing I’d been afraid of was now finally happening. “Y-you do?” I said. I myself was not even sure if it was a question or a statement. Arzhel looked at me. I tried to read him, if remembering everything made him mad or not. But I couldn’t read an
Arzhel opened his eyes, but he winced faintly when he saw the bright hospital lights above him. Veronica rushed to Arzhel. “Oh my gosh, Arzhel, are you okay?” she said worriedly. Arzhel didn’t react. He was still closing his eyes. I could see that his eyes were tightly shut. I think the light wa
I was watching the nurses as they checked Jessica’s blood pressure when I felt a hand touch my arm. I looked beside me and saw James. He smiled at me, but it didn’t reach his eyes. It was the smile of an emotionally tired person. “It was too late, Analia. I think you need to go home and rest,” he
I glanced at the door. “Doctor,” James said and shook hands with the doctor. Jessica let go of my arms when she heard about the doctor. She rushed to the doctor and held his arms. “Doctor, what happened? How is he? Is he okay now?” she asked nonstop. James gently pulled her away from the doctor
When we arrived at the bar, it was very full. It was almost packed. We saw Lorenzo at one of the big tables. He waved at us. I hugged him. “Sorry,” he whispered. I already knew what he meant, so I just smiled. “It’s okay,” I said. He went to Arzhel to greet and hug him. “It’s so full. Are
I nodded. Then he bid his goodbye. Arzhel wore his sunglasses and stood up. “Wanna tour around?” he asked. I was about to roll my eyes at him, but he spoke again. “Let’s not argue during our entire stay here,” he said and put his hands in his pockets. “When was the last time you had a vacation?”
Lorenzo prepared a buffet for us for lunch, so we went to the hotel restaurant to have lunch together. I looked for my table. I mentally rolled my eyes when I saw mine next to Arzhel. Luckily it was only our first names, or else they would put Theron as my last name. That would be embarrassing.
“I should have let myself cry and yearn more before, instead of distracting myself,” I whispered and sighed. If I did that, maybe my heart would automatically get tired and give up loving him. I stood up and went to Arriana’s room. I saw her still sleeping peacefully. It was Sunday so she didn’t h
