Lu[C]Ka Love
34. COOLING ROOM INCIDENT

Jerry rushed into the JB Group building and asked the security guard. His face was pale and panicked. He had just arrived in front of his boarding house, but had to return to JB Group because he got a phone call from Erlina who reported that Cinta had not arrived at his home. Her mother is anxious and asks Erlina to find out about the existence of Love.

"There's no one inside, Mom. Who's it gonna find?" said the security guard.

"But my friend still seems to be inside, sir," Jerry replied frantically.

"I've checked everything, Mom. There really isn't anyone!" firmly, mr. security guard.

"Then can I go inside to check it out?"

"Yes, go ahead." The security guard let Jerry into the building.

And a few minutes later, Erlina also came to the office and met the security guard. Unable to stop Erlina, the security guard allowed Erlina to come in and catch up with Jerry.

Lucka just got out of the parking lot and passed the front lobby. He saw Erlina running into the building. He was curious and asked the security guard.

"What's up, sir? Who was that woman?" Lucka got out of his car.

"That's Master, they're Chefs here apprenticing. They said their friend had not yet returned. But I've checked everything and no one, sir."

"Who's the name of the apprentice chef who hasn't come home yet?"

"If not wrong, it is called love. Aye right. Love!"

"What?!"

Lucka panicked and ran into the building. The confused security guard came running behind Lucka.

Lucka's headed for the kitchen. There's nobody there. Lucka headed for the cooling room that turned out to be locked.

"Where are the keys to this room, sir?"

"I'll keep it, sir."

"Quick bring it here. We need to open this room."

"But there can't be anyone there, sir. I checked and no one was there."

"Don't argue! Quickly get the keys!"

"I-yes, good sir." The security guard ran quickly to get the key.

Lucka waited anxiously. Then Jerry and Erlina also arrived in front of the cooling room. They were surprised to see Lucka there.

"Hows it? Found him?" ask Lucka.

"We've searched all over the place but nothing, sir. Cinta said she wanted to cook something because she wanted to eat. In the kitchen there is no sign of people who have finished cooking, it means Love has not cooked anything," said Jerry.

"His mother has called everyone she knows, and it is true that Love is not with them" Erlina said.

Lucka grumbled. He was very worried about love. And the feeling is that Love is still in this building.

The security guard finally arrived with the key. Lucka told him to open the cooling room door.

The cold instantly pierced the skin as the door opened. Without a warning Lucka went straight into the cooling room and shouted the name Love. With the cold piercing her bones, Lucka continues to search for Love while the other three are just waiting in front of the cooling room. They know what it's like to get in there. And they assume that Love can't be locked in the freezer. Then what if it's possible?

Lucka found Love's body lying on the floor. He immediately raised the already very cold body of Love.

After a while, Love opened her eyes. It's realized. But his body is still very weak.

"Lucka.." call Love shrewdly. Then he came back unconscious.

"I'll take you to the hospital. Steady, Love!" Lucka holds Love's body and takes her out of the freezer.

The three people waiting outside could only round their eyes when they saw Lucka find the icy body of Love. They still can't believe that Love is locked in the freezer.

Lucka walked quickly to his car, then darted towards a nearby hospital.

...***...

In the hospital, Lucka brings Love to the IGD room. Lucka was dismayed half-dead and just paced back and forth in front of the IGD.

Lucka asked the nurse who handled Love. "How is he doing? She's okay, right?"

"Patients with Hypothermia. His body temperature is below average. What exactly is going on?"

"He's locked in the cooling room. But, she can still be saved right, sister?"

"We wait until the body temperature returns to normal. If I may know, you are ready? Husband or..."

"Bu-no, sister. I am not her husband. He is my employee" Lucka replied awkwardly.

"Oh, so. Since we are not a husband or family member, we will cover the patient's body with a thick blanket only. It would actually be faster if the patient could warm up from the person's body temperature directly."

"Eh? What does that mean, Sister?" Lucka scrunched his forehead. The nurse explained in simple language to Lucka.

And finally, the one who will treat Love is Lucka himself. As explained by the nurse, the body temperature of Love will return to normal quickly when in direct contact with the body temperature of other humans. As a result, Lucka was the one who divided his body temperature to Love by hugging him tightly in the blanket.

It was a great opportunity for Lucka. Although impressed to take a chance in narrow-mindedness, hehe.

Lucka clutched tightly onto the body of Love. The distance between them is very close. Lucka stroked the stricken hair of Love. Her ex-fiance has changed. She's no longer the little girl Lucka used to love making fun of.

How can you be in the freezer, love? What are you doing there?

Lucka couldn't hold back his passion. His position that is too intimate with Love makes him unable to hold back. He kisses tenderly on Love.

Love opened her eyes a little. Trying to digest what really happened.

"Lucka.." call Love shrewdly.

"Ssttt, don't talk. Just rest. I'm right here" whispered Lucka.

"Hm." Love closed her eyes again. He started to fall asleep. Lucka is getting closer so that Love can quickly recover.

Thirty minutes have passed, and Love's body temperature begins to normalize. Lucka is glad Love is starting to recover. Lucka began to sleep and intend to sleep beside Love, but he regained his senses when he heard the voice of Mother Love, Inah who entered the IGD room. He soon rose from the bed of Love, and slipped into hiding so that no one would see him.

"Where's my son, Sister?" ask her to panic.

"Patients in the name of Love are in ward number 3" explained the nurse as she escorted Inah.

The nurse opened the curtain and was confused because she did not find Lucka in the bed of Love. Inah rushed to hug her beloved daughter who was still lying weak and closed.
