My Adopted Princess's
28 B


Caitlin knocks on Lewis's door slowly, but when she doesn't get the answer, Caitlin turns the beat stronger. "Uncle, you're okay, right?" shout Caitlin.


Caitlin begins to get her ear on Lewis's bedroom door. Again, he heard nothing from the room. "Uncle!" peeked Caitlin who began to feel anxious and upset because her feelings were increasingly not calm.


A slight cough came from inside the room and Caitlin's expected answer began to be heard. "Yes, I'm fine" Lewis replied with a slight hoarseness and ended with a slight cough.


Catlin who was anxious at Lewis's reply could only shake his head, what was fine? It was clear that the man was ill. Without a second thought, Caitlin opened the door to Lewis's room slowly, thankfully the man never locked the door because if it happened Caitlin could have guessed if Lewis would have locked himself in the room without calling a doctor to check his condition. "You sick Uncle?" asked Caitlin who was now annoyed by her own question, it was clear that Lewis was rolling her body with a thick blanket.


Caitlin moved closer to the bed where Lewis was lying. "God you're so pale" said Caitlin worriedly. "I'll get a doctor for you." Caitlin pulled her phone out of her pants pocket and began looking for contacts of their family's personal doctor.


But before Caitlin found the doctor's contact she was looking for, Lewis's hand reached out to Caitlin. "No need, I just need to rest" Lewis said slowly.


Lewis took a deep breath, he half rose from his sleep and looked at Caitlin with a weak look. "Just accompany me here" Lewis said, patting the empty bed beside him.


Doubtfully and uncertain Caitlin was sitting next to Lewis, her heart began to pound again as Lewis leaned his head on Caitlin's shoulder. "Just in a moment" Lewis said. "First, when I was 18 and alone in Florida, Amara came and I just leaned on her shoulder like this, tomorrow I'll heal by myself" Lewis murmured softly.


As soon as there was the pain Caitlin felt, she always remembered the woman's name. The woman who had an argument with Lewis while delivering Caitlin and her Mommy to the hospital. "Then? You want me to find that long-lost woman named Amara to get you to back her shoulders?" hiss Caitlin was a little jealous.


"Remara from today working in my office, I want to avoid it, how do you think?" ask Lewis suddenly. At first Lewis thought he would be able to act ordinary to his former lover, but apparently when the afternoon arrived, Lewis' head felt dizzy and like something was stuck in his throat. At that moment, for some reason Amara suddenly entered and asked Lewis about the limp, Amara walked over and was about to reach out to check on Lewis' condition. However, Lewis quickly brushed off Amara's hand, preferring to call someone with a drink that could soothe her throat. The attitude of Amara had somehow made Lewis remembered the memories when they were still dating, the woman who always took care of it even with a small grunt that was like insincere but according to Lewis who at that time loved Amara with all his heart actually saw it quite adorable.


"Fire it," replied Caitlin, severely dispelling Lewis's thoughts of recalling the incident in his office about Amara.
