Only Love
#32
After the day Vinnie handed over the map with their divorce papers, he never spoke to Daniel again. The two were so cold to each other, they even avoided each other.
In the afternoon, Vinnie ventured out of the Lewis residence. He goes to the hospital where Elliot works. From a distance, he noticed how the man was doing and his interactions with the patient.
Just 10 minutes later he noticed Elliot, suddenly he saw Mom Hilda coming by pushing a wheelchair where Daisy was sitting there. Vinnie is unaware of Daisy's routine check-up schedule because Daniel forbids her from interfering in her family's affairs.
“Sister Elliot,” greet Daisy to Elliot who is standing at the administration desk.
“Daisy, you look cheerful once today,” Elliot rubbed Daisy's head, making the smile on Daisy's face look even brighter.
“I'm so happy to see Elliot again,” Daisy replied honestly. Since his treatment, Dr. Clark assigned Elliot to supervise his health and recovery from Daisy. Elliot, who is a heart specialist, is of course delighted to have earned the trust of Doctor Clark.
“Pardon Daisy's attitude yes, Doc,” Mom Hilda said with a smile looking at Daisy's happiness.
“It's okay, Mistress. I am happy that Daisy's happiness can be an encouragement for her to recover quickly,” said Elliot, making Mrs Hilda admire the man even more and hope that he can be her son-in-law.
Elliot then takes over Daisy's wheelchair and pushes her to the spot where he will be doing regular checks. Daisy's happy face is so visible and how the girl continues to look at Elliot, not sparing Vinnie's attention.
Vinnie finally returns home after seeing Elliot and makes sure that his ex-lover lives and works well, without any interference from Dad Davis.

Carefully, Ivy cleaned the wound on Sky's face and compressed it.
“Sick, Brother?” Ivy asked when she saw Sky grimacing a little.
Sky shook his head. She noticed Ivy's face, especially her bead eyes, which recently seemed to shed tears.
“You okay?” ask Sky.
Ivy stopped his activities for a moment and fell silent. He was confused as to what to answer and just sighed softly.
“If I said it's okay, would sister believe it?” Ivy asked Sky.
Sky looked at Ivy and of course replied with a headband. Sky watched from afar as Ivy was drawn in by Daniel, until he took the initiative to follow them.
“Can I ask one thing,” ask Sky.
“Of course.”
“Why did you kiss me?”
Ivy set her breath, “I'm sorry, sister. It wasn't my intention to play big brother or make Brother Daniel hate Brother Sky. It's just that I'm just the way it came to my mind that Brother Daniel hates me.”
“You mean?” Sky is confused.
“I just want Brother Daniel not to follow me anymore. Brother Daniel is married and I think Vinnie is a good woman. I don't want to be the third person in Brother Daniel's marriage, even though I still have affection for him. I don't want to be a domestic destroyer Brother Daniel.”
Sky sat facing Ivy. Currently they are in front of a minimarket located not far from the apartment.
“I'm the one who should be apologizing. I used to do bad things to you,” Sky said.
“But I know that Brother Sky has done nothing to me. Nothing happened between the two of us,” Sky looked at Ivy in surprise.
“I just don't know what the reason is that Kak Sky did something like that. What I have done so much that Brother Sky hates me so much,” Ivy said again.
“Bu-not so, Vy. Actually a-I ..”
“So Brother. I don't need to know the reason either. I'm also sorry for the incident at that time, so we consider it even, sis,” Ivy said with a smile.
“You want to go home, right, Vy? I'm taking you guys. It's night,” said Sky.
Ivy nodded her head, agreeing to Sky's request. Arriving in front of Ivy's apartment,
“Vy, if you need anything or need me as a tool to get Daniel away from you, you can call me. I will be ready to help you,” said Sky.
“Thank you, Brother. I hope it won't happen again,” Ivy was alone and entered the apartment lobby, leaving Sky who still saw it until he entered the elevator.

The sound of the apartment door opening,
“Dad ..”
“Eh baby, you're home?” ask Dad Arthur.
“Iya Dad's. Today I have no scheduled operations, so I can go home quickly,” replied Ivy.
Dad Arthur sat on the sofa, letting go of his tiredness and weariness. As always, his daughter would always provide him with a cup of warm tea. He loved the smell of the tea because it reminded him of his wife, the woman he would always love.
“Dad, I've cooked Dad's favorite meal. Does Dad want to eat now?” ask Ivy.
“Boleh, Dad is also very hungry because the smell of your cooking has filled this apartment,” said Dad Arthur with a laugh.
The two of them sat down and ate together at the dining table. They tell each other stories. They had not talked for a long time, until there were so many things they wanted to tell.
“Honey, the day after Dad has to go. Coincidentally Dad had to attend some semunar training.”
“Where, Dad?” ask Ivy.
“In Florida,” replied Dad Arthur.
“Kok away?” Ivy said in a clear tone.
“Even after that there is another schedule to California and Ontario.”
“Loh, isn't Dad just a standby at the head office now?” Ivy asked inquisitively.
“Yes, but this seminar was organized by one of the big companies, Mr. Roger's coworkers. So it doesn't taste good if Dad doesn't come.”
“How long, Dad?”
“Dad less know for sure, maybe about 3 to 4 weeks,” replied Dad Arthur.
“Volidly old Dad. I alone donk,” Ivy pursed his lips, making Dad Arthur laugh.
“You are like a child who is afraid of being left behind. Do you want to come with Dad around?” dad Arthur asked in a tone like persuading a child.
“You want, don't you want to replace me in the hospital? There is no …. Huu huuu huuu,” Ivy said as she pretended to cry.
Dad Arthur can only smile at Ivy's made-up behavior. Honestly, he longed for the days when his daughter was a child and always went wherever she went. They were never separated.
But now her daughter is an adult. He already has a job and responsibilities. He smiled when he saw his daughter's face.
Look at our daughter, Kei. How beautiful it is. She has now grown into a woman and become a doctor. If you were here, you would definitely be very proud of him. - inner Dad Arthur.
