EMBRACE YOU: Presence & Poison
Episode 63

...

I had absolutely no intention of getting close, I decided to sit on the long chair attached to the same corridor as her

Although it's a bit far away but I think Bayu looks really cool if it's serious like that. Sometimes he looks

folded his hands in front of his chest and looked down like he was thinking hard. The two men were not members of the Bayu team, I did not know them.

I don't remember how long I waited for him, only since then some people sitting next to me had asked me what I was sick. Or what I'm doing sitting here, or even more surprised that someone thinks I'm being treated for a pregnancy program realizes that near me there is a door where the obstetrician.

My gaze turned back to look at Bayu, maybe he was very busy with his work. I became a little

guilty that he should be here with me.

My heartbeat suddenly ticked quickly as Bayu glanced at me unintentionally. From his look he looks surprised

seeing me outside the room, the man turned back to listening to the man in front of him.

My attention was distracted when a woman who seemed to be my age was sitting side by side with a man. The two of them were sitting in front of me since then and I just realized that the woman was looking at me with an annoyed look.

Not understanding the intention of the woman's gaze, I just stared back at her indifferently. Then all of a sudden she was embracing the man beside her while I was glancing at her.

Seeing him I understood what his gaze meant. Is it possible that he thought I had been sitting in front of them to tease his man? Oh my goodness! What a joke is this.

Then the edge of my eye saw it as if asking the man beside her to kiss her cheek, after the

the man obeyed his will, this woman glanced at me satisfied. I, who had been laughing, tried hard to hold him back.

Do I look that sad? Sitting alone here with the status of a patient?

Like a fitting timing, I caught Bayu's movement shaking hands with the two men in front of him, then I looked at him who was walking slowly towards me.

Suddenly I wanted to judge this woman before me, deliberately moving my legs.

When Bayu was close and five meters from where I was sitting, I took off the right black slipper slipper belonging to one of the nurses at the ER – that I had borrowed earlier this morning until I was a little thrown and stopped right in front of the legs of this woman in front of me.

With a shocked expression on purpose, I immediately stood up slowly intending to take my slippers but as I expected, Bayu suddenly walked quickly and replaced me to crouch down to pick them up.

“Sorry.” Saying Bayu gave a small smile to the woman and then took my sandals. I could see the woman reply

smiled at Bayu and watched his every move as he approached me and knelt before me.

“Why did you come out?”

“I'm bored.” My answer was to see Bayu who was helping me put these black sandals back on.

“Sorry because I was chatting with them. Did I chat for a long time?” Bayu looked up at me.

“Are you very busy? Could I be bothering you? You better leave soon, they'll be waiting for you.” I grimaced a little bad.

“No no! They're working in the area and they just came here to ask me for advice

about a thing. Not an urgent matter.”

“You're not lying ‘kan?” I looked at him suspiciously. Bayu just chuckled softly and shook his head.

Then with a sudden move I hugged his neck and placed my chin on his shoulder. Hugged it tightly. Bayu who was shocked by my actions just remained stiff.

“I just remembered, since this morning I have not revealed how much I miss you. It's only fitting that I look for you like this because I miss you so much.” I whispered softly, revealing what I had been thinking since.

Hearing his words made me think again about the injection. As a result of the poison I am now experiencing

heart damage is slow, and the person behind all this is Daniel.

I remember last night, when I screamed for my mom to come out. When doctor Stefan

nagging Daniel because he was silent. The evidence of her involvement is getting real, she pretends to care about me and without me realizing she is also the one who is heating up mom to hate me even more.

I drowned my face around her neck, my forehead stuck to her neck skin. I closed my eyes hoping

you can for a moment forget the thoughts about your mother or Daniel.

“You tired?” Bayu patted my back slowly.

“I just can't stop thinking about mom and Daniel.”

“Oh. If what makes you tired is in your mind, I can't use a weapon.” I chuckled softly at his words then I let go of our embrace and looked at him.

“Now I'm sleepy.”

“Did I make you wait a long time?”

I shook my head and re-hugged Bayu's neck, hid my face on his shoulder and began to shut up as he said. “Hugging you like this feels very comfortable.”

I don't care what people think seeing me leaning around hugging Bayu like this, whereas this man who was still kneeling before me had no intention of standing.

“Can I go home?” I asked as I let go of our embrace and looked at her with a pleading gaze.

“Are you sure you're okay?” I nodded quickly.

“Just need a break. I've been better. And about the poison, have you heard?” My voice shrank at the end

sentences. Bayu sighed softly and nodded then he got up and took a seat beside my left.

“I will bring poison cure asap.” Quickly I shook my head, that's not what I meant to ask her.

“Didn't they already know your identity? I'd be very worried if you had to deal again with

those people.”

“Facing people like them is already my duty.”

I was silent, looking at her face that was looking at me attentively. The tip of my tongue could not bear to

denied it in such a way that he didn't go to face those people, but I realized that this was the risk of his job. It feels wrong if I want someone else to replace him but I'm not willing to either.

“Your eyes say it all. You don't have to say it, I know.” Bayu rubbed the top of my head, Intonating his voice more gently, slowly and regularly.

I exhaled a long breath, folding my lips into a straight line but had no intention of revealing it to

my worries.

“Guide me to lunch in the canteen, hm?” I nodded in response to her question, then we both stood up, Bayu helped me carry the infusion hanger and we decided to walk in unison to the hospital canteen.
