HATE Before LOVE
Hormone Influence.

Ardan put on a look full of worry. Teddy as always, expressionless. While the Elif with the oxygen hose on his nose did not cover the fierce gaze of the girl.

"What other lies do you want to make? Is it not enough with what happened to me today? Do I have to get hurt even worse so you don't go on with this lie and make other people hate me?"

"Elif, how many times do I have to say, this feeling is no longer a lie. You made me fall in love."

"I? The person who is not your type at all?" Elif laughed cynically.

"Elif, I understand that you don't believe me. Because we started it the wrong way too." Ardan. "So I ask, give me permission to prove to you that there are no more lies."

Elif just grunts. "Enough Sir. I beg. Stop all this charade."

"Defuse me..."

"What happened to me today I can still accept. But if you come back to hate me double, I won't be able to."

"Defuse me..."

"I'm going to hate myself, I'm not going to stand up anymore, I-"

"Elif Enough!" ardan said with his voice rising.

Elif was also stunned.

"I have to tell you how many times, no more theatrics, no more lies, because you have knocked my heart, opened it and entered it even if not with love. But I fell in love because of that. You are what you are, you don't cover who you are and what you feel for me is all real. And I think I fell in love with you before I even knew it was you."

Elif was stunned, not because of Ardan's statement, but rather Elif saw the absence of lies or pretense in the man's eyes. There's just honesty there, and sincerity. Highlight the eyes of a man who had always looked at him with a look of disdain, now no more.

Should I trust him?

"Well, suppose you really are like that. Then what about me? I'm not into you, let alone being able to reciprocate your feelings. Isn't it the same that this will still be a charade?"

"Because you like Gavin?"

"Eh, i-iya." answered Elif honestly. Yes, he did not hesitate to show what he felt to Gavin in front of Ardan.

"Well, I won't force my feelings on you. But like I said, Gavin already has a lover. All I know is, she loves him a lot."

Elif looked down, she knew her feelings for Gavin who was clapping one hand. But, he also could not lie to her feelings.

"I don't mean to make you sad, but that's the truth."

"It's okay, I can keep this feeling to myself."

"Is there no chance for me?"

"I'm sorry, sir."

"alright. I will no longer burden you with my feelings." said Ardan. "I'm going to free you from all these relationships you pretend to have."

Elif immediately raised his head. "really?"

"Yes. On two terms."

"Two conditions?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Anything?"

"First, never try to pay anything. Second, let me take care of you until you fully recover. After that, let's talk to your parents."

Elif. He seems to think. "For the first condition, can I pay half-"

"There is no bargaining. If you still want to pay a penny, I'll call the ruler right now."

"Alright, I agree with the terms."

"Good girl."

"But sir, if I may know, what do you mean to treat me?" ask Elif. "I think I'll be fine with this hospital treatment."

Ardan shook his head. "As long as you're in the hospital, I'll also be here, accompanying you, and you won't have to hesitate to ask me anything for help."

"But Sir-"

"No buts." Tukas Ardan's. "The doctor said there's some part of the colon in your stomach that's bruised and for that you need to be treated and bed rest."

"really?" Elif touched his stomach.

"Because of that, I won't be able to leave you alone in this VVIP room. After all, Kinan escaped, and his whereabouts are still undiscovered."

"But Sir-"

"It's orders. You can't refuse him. It's enough you've just rejected my feelings." The man chuckles.

Elif also felt bad.

Why is this shitty guy turning 180 degrees like this? No, no, I won't be fooled by his charade. Remember Elif, how he was able to convince Mother, Adit, Yura even Mona. She must have acted like this just to attract me and make me trust her to keep this charade going, so it was safe for her to no longer be betrothed by her mother. Yeah, that must be so. I won't eat his talk!

***

The next morning, Teddy came back to bring Ardan's clothes. As Ardan asked, Teddy only brought casual clothes. No suit, shirt, tie or pantofel shoes. This morning, he was wearing a plain black long-sleeved shirt, jeans, and sneakers. But the simple appearance does not at all melt the man's good looks, precisely the good looks more striking.

Elif had to pretend to sleep again when Ardan approached Elif's bed to pour a drink from a bottle of mineral water that Teddy also brought. While checking Elif's body temperature by sticking his palm on Elif's forehead.

"Elif, get up, you should have breakfast and take medicine" Ardan said very gently. Even his breath seemed to wipe the surface of Elif's cheek warmly.

Something made his chest rustle. And weird. Don't know what.

The girl also pretended to yawn and was surprised once she saw Ardan's super handsome face right in front of her face.

"What-what are you doing?"

"I was going to kiss you again if you didn't wake up" she said casually and chuckled.

"What does that mean?" Elif frowned. But Ardan did not answer, the door was knocked and then opened.

"Good morning." A doctor and a nurse came.

"Good morning, Doctor." Elif and Ardan said.

"How was it this morning, Miss Elif? Are there any complaints?" ask the doctor who looks very friendly.

"Ehm, I feel pain in here, Doctor." Elif pointed at the part of her stomach that hurt.

"Yes, it's in there where the bruises are" the doctor said. "Therefore, I ask Mr. Ardan, as much as possible so that Miss does not pass the activity first. Except to go to the bathroom. It must be helped by Mr. Ardan, yes."

"Of course the Doctor. I'll be on standby 24 hours." said Ardan. Without realizing it, the female nurse standing beside the doctor did not blink looking at Ardan with great admiration. As if it would be a great loss if he blinked just once.

"All right then. Let's see again in 2 days, if it's still bruised then Miss Elif's treatment is still not allowed for outpatient. But if there is a good change, then Miss can be outpatient with the procedure that must be undertaken." said the doctor while attaching a stethoscope to the stomach, then the nurse checked Elif's blood pressure.

"Good Doctor."

"For the time being, have to eat soft foods first."

Elif nodded.

After that, the doctor and nurse left Elif's room. From the tail of her eyes Elif could see how reluctant the nurse was to leave the room.

"Do you have to look like that?" elif asked Ardan who was preparing breakfast for Elif who came a while before the doctor and nurse came. He removed the plastic covering the bowl and the food plate.

"Like what? What's wrong with my appearance?"

Elif grunting.

Right too, what's wrong with his appearance. Jerseys, jeans, sneakers all look normal. Except her face! This must be because of the influence of this medicine and pain, so Mr. Ardan's face looks more handsome than usual. Ah, I must be crazy. No one can match Brother Gavin!

"I see the people here are like this too. Do I have to wear a suit?"

"No, just like that."

"Then why do you look upset?" Ardan pushed the table in front of Elif.

"Suster was looking at you until you didn't blink." Elif began to pick up the spoon and stir the porridge.

Hearing that made Ardan giggle funny. And that further upset Elif unclear.

I definitely want to come this month, so kesel-kesel is not clear gini. What business do I have the sister did not blink or blink looking at Mr. Ardan. That's his right and only natural, because Mr. Ardan is indeed as handsome as that. But I don't like the way the nurse saw Mr. Ardan, what else is there me and- uh wait a minute, what if there is me? Okay, fix, it looks like this is the hormone ahead of the moon. No debate!
