Meanwhile, in another place, namely Brian's apartment. The man was sitting in the living room with a dark aura. His hands were clenched tightly into fists so that they accentuated the veins on his arms. His jaw tightened stiffly holding back anger.
The wall clock shows eight o'clock in the evening, but until now there has been no sign of Elena's arrival. Even Brian can't reach Elena. The woman's number was inactive since the afternoon. Brian clenched his fists even more until his nails turned white, remembering the words and promises that Elena said this morning.
'You take it easy, I won't run away. I'll come back here in the afternoon and bring some of my clothes. '
Elena promised to come back late in the evening, but until the evening she could not be reached. All that bullshit! Nonsense!
Brian grew angrier. His hands were itching so badly they wanted to punch someone at this time.
How can he believe Elena's words? A moneymaking mature woman like Elena can't possibly keep her promise. There's nothing in it for the woman to come back and keep her promise. Elena has already got her pay and she can run away whenever she wants.
"You don't need to worry Mr. Fernandez, Elise has my cell phone number."
Brian thought back to what Elena said.
"Shit!" With mounting anger, Brian grabbed the ashtray on the table and threw it hard against the wall.
The sound of the ashtray hitting the wall broke the silence of the apartment. The ashtray made of ceramic broke into small pieces.
Brian doesn't care about the mess he just did. He didn't care that the floor of his apartment was full of broken tiles. Currently, there is only one he wants to make calculations with the woman named Elena.
Brian is angry, very angry. Not because of the five hundred million that Elena took away. Brian is angry that Elena gave false hope to Elise. He didn't want Elise to be disappointed if she found out that her twin sister didn't come and broke her promise. He didn't want to see Elise cry. Whoever makes Elise cry has to deal with Brian and the man promises whoever that person will never have a happy life.
Brian remembers how cheerful his wife's face was when she first said this crazy idea. How sad Elise was with her deficiency which was having a hard time getting pregnant. And only Elena who Elise thinks can help them.
If Elena doesn't come tomorrow, Brian will send his men to find Elena. That woman won't be able to hide from him. Brian will search even to the end of the world. There will be no place for the girl to hide. And when he caught Elena, Brian would give her what she deserved.
....
Elena still sat staring at Diego's operating room door. The girl put all her attention on Diego's surgery. She even skipped mealtime and continued to wait there.
Until finally the operating room door opened and a doctor came out. Elena quickly stood up and walked over to the doctor.
"How about him, doc?"
"Congratulations, the operation is proceeding normally. And Diego's condition stabilized again. Currently, the nurse will still take care of Diego. And tomorrow Diego has moved to his ward."
The doctor rubbed Elena's shoulder lightly as if to provide support for Elena so that she would always be strong and continue to pray for Diego's recovery. Then go leave Elena alone.
At that moment, a long sigh was exhaled from Elena, as if the weight of the beret had just disappeared on Elena's shoulders. And a second later Elena lost her leg strength. Her time shook and she fell to the floor of the hospital hallway.
Feelings of fatigue, hunger, and thirst immediately attacked her so violently. Elena rubbed her empty and sore stomach. The worms in her stomach may almost die right now because since noon Elena has not been filled with food.
Elena got up with the rest of her strength. She approached the operating room window. From the window, Elena could see the nurse who was still checking the condition and impaled Diego.
Elena wiped the windowpane as if she were touching Diego.
"Bro, please wake up quickly and recover. I need you." After being satisfied staring at Diego's face for quite a while, Elena walked away. She wanted to find food to fill her currently empty stomach.
Elena walked down the hospital hallways while occasionally rubbing her stomach. Her stomach is very sore right now, Elena has not eaten for more than eight hours. She seemed to be fasting.
As Elena passed the nursery. Her face was smiling broadly at several tiny babies who had just been born. What a beautiful baby. That's when Elena remembered Elise and the agreement they made this morning. Frantically Elena walked quickly. What time is it now? Elena took out the cellphone that had been in her bag.
"Shit." Elena cursed when she found out that her cellphone died because of a low bet.
Elena rolled her eyes when she saw the dark atmosphere that was outside. She did not think that it was already night.
Shit. Elena was completely forgetful and focused solely on Diego's surgery. She didn't remember to call Elise if she was late.
Elena widened her eyes, even more, when she saw the hospital wall clock that showed ten in the evening.
How about this? Elena had promised to return to the apartment in the afternoon but she didn't come even now it was ten in the evening. Elise will be mad at her. Especially the man named Brian. Remembering that man's sharp face made Elena shudder. With just one look, Elena can already guess that Brian is not easy to talk to. And it was better to obey the man's words than to deal with his anger.
Elena is now standing on the side of the road. It was late at night there was no more public transportation such as public transportation or buses. Elena has to find a taxi. And taxis must also be very difficult to find at ten at night like this.
