Monica's POV
"Lorence's father called, asked if Lorence came home last night" Ren
Lorence didn't come home here, so where is he?
"I'll just call Lorence"
I picked up my phone and called Lorence's number.
"How are you?" Lorence
"babe where are you? you didn't come home yesterday"
"I'm going home" Lorence
He immediately dropped the call. he looks drunk, did he drink?
An hour later he texted that he was out of the house so I went to him.
"Lorence, let's go in!" I told him because he was drunk.
"Wait. I want to hear from you that you love me" Lorence
"I love you Lorence hap ..." I was shocked when he kissed me on the lips.
"Monica! Oops… sorry!" Ren
Lorence immediately walked away from me and Ren hurried back inside the house.
"All right, come in and I'll go home" Lorence
what's going on with him?
I entered the house.
"Do you love Lorence?" Ren
I just smiled at her. I don't know what to answer. I didn't know the meaning of the kiss before. Even though we're lovers, I still don't feel anything. I'm not thrilled. I know it's just for the company.
"I put Mona to sleep" Ren
I went to Mona's room and saw that she was hugging the teddy bear that Luke had given me before. Brother Troy gave the teddy bear to Mona because Trixy saw it in my house. Why did she see it in my house? Maybe Trixy has already seen my stuff there.
"MONICA!"
I was surprised when Ren shouted, I left Mona's room.
"Monica, there's a guy who fainted outside the subdivision! Maybe it's Lorence!"
She handed the phone to me.
"Miss Monique, we took your friend to the hospital," said the guard on the other line
my friend? maybe he's not referring to lorence? he knew his boss.
"Ren, watch over Mona. I'm just going to the hospital"
*****
When I arrived at the hospital I immediately asked the nurse where the unconscious man was taken. I immediately ran to his room to find out who the man was.
When I entered the room, I was shocked to see Luke with a bandage on his arm.
"Luke?"
"Monica"
he suddenly got up so I ran with him to support him.
"Slowly, Luke, your wound might hurt"
"What are you doing here," he asked
"Shouldn't I be the one asking you? What are you doing here? Why are you here?"
he immediately averted his eyes.
"The guard said you entered our subdivision. To whom did you go?" I asked him again but he still did not answer me and he suddenly lay down and covered himself with a blanket.
"Luke I'm still talking to you!"
I pulled on the blanket but he held on tightly.
"Luke why are you hiding? Am I a ghost so you hide?" I tease him
He removed the blanket and sat down again. I sat next to him and he was just stunned.
The cuteness of his reaction. He looks like he saw a ghost! HAHAHAHA!
"Luke, are you okay?" I touched his forehead to see if he had a fever but nothing.
This is not the first time someone has been hurt for following me. I remembered what happened to bun.
"Monica go home, maybe your Boyfriend is looking for you" Luke
My boyfriend? is he referring to Lorence? Kael mentioned that he had already told Luke everything as well as my relationship with Lorence.
Did he see me earlier when Lorence kissed me? I knew Lorence was just drunk so he did that.
"Are you jealous?"
"I'm not a jealous person. I'm mature, why should I be jealous? Even if you kiss all night it's okay. Just for company right? Then don't talk to me thanks for all the memories. May you be happy with him." Luke
I couldn't help but laugh at what he said. HAHAHAHA! he was jealous.
"What's funny?" Luke
I told Ren that I would never be weak again but why can't I help but smile when I see Luke? I can't stop my heartbeat every time I see him.
Now I have a second life. then I will think to myself when I fix the problem of people close to me.
*****
"Monica, haven't you come home yet?" Luke
"No, I'll wait for your dad. I haven't seen Doc in a long time. I want to tell him something"
"Dad?" Luke asked
"Yeah. Why did he take so long to come? Didn't you call him when you were brought here?" I asked him
He just shook his head and looked out the window.
"I'm not his son" Luke
"Didn't you say before that you are the son of Doc Santos?" I repeat.
I remember what he told me when I was in the hospital. he admitted that he was the son of Doc Santos.
"I'm the son of my Mother's first Husband" Luke
O.O?
"Why are you using Santos if Doc Santos is not your father?"
"for the money, for the hospital, he owned" Luke
He married Luke's Mother and accepted Luke in exchange for everything he has now.
I heard that Doc Santos's hospital is top-notch in the whole Philippines. He is also the best doctor in the Philippines. but I wonder about him being a doctor. If he is the best doctor, why does he not know my disease?
"Luke, didn't you see my record before? Did you have a copy then?"
"No, why?" Luke
he never once showed me my hospital record. he's the only one who tells me about my pain and I believe everything he says because that's what Nurse Cha says to me. I want to know all the pain they were telling me back then.
