The Love of Mr. Erick
GCTE | Chapter 54

Elena could hear the low boisterous voices of those around her. He tried to open his eyelids, it felt heavy and when his consciousness began to take over, the pain immediately whack the head so intense, throbbing that it makes his breath tight.

Even so he stared forced open his eyes until faintly he could see even though it felt blurred making him blink a few times to focus his vision.

"D-where am I?" hoarse voice and chest feel tight make Elena urgently to rise from the bed.

"Elena! you finally realized." Dea, the first time approaching, Elena gasped.

"Where is Dea?" ask her in a weak tone.

"You're in the infirmary." Someone said, not Dea, but Marvin, with the white coat of his doctor's uniform and a stethoscope hanging around his neck.

"You've been unconscious for almost a week due to lack of fluids and high fever, your condition is really very weak Elena" Marvin said, checking back on the girl's condition.

Elena looked like she was remembering something. "My erick? d-where is my Erick now? I remember Erick I'm fucking around!" her hysterical.

"Dea help me to see my husband,ayo De!" Elena shook Dea's arm but the girl just kept quiet by looking pity at her.

"Sorry Elen, I have to say this. But Erick had already returned to his mansion two days ago."

"W-what?" Elena's dumbfounded.

"W-does that mean Erick's already conscious?" look Elena's face around radiantly. "Thank God .. "he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

But Dea showed a different look.

"But he doesn't want to tell you, Elena. Even when it dawned on him he wasn't looking for you at all ... "

"A-what do you mean by Dea?" elena's clutches weakened, the girl stared fixedly at Dea's eyes asking for her explanation.

Flashbacks*

"Thank God, the patient is awake."

Information from the doctor after checking Erick's condition makes everything a full welcome. They gave thanks only then with a face full of relief.

While Dea accompanies the unconscious Elena along with the awakened Erick. Elena was taken to a different room for treatment.

Hearing Erick who has passed his critical period and is also self-conscious makes Dea breathe a sigh of relief. He leaves Elena's luggage for a moment to go to the VVIP room where Erick is transferred, to inform Erick of Elena's current situation.

But the response he got from Erick made Dea stunned long.

"Erick, Elena had passed out while waiting for you to wake up, and why did you feel like you didn't care?" dea said as if in disbelief, even when he told her that Elena's condition was weakened because she continued to be next to him without rest, the man seemed deaf, looking no interest at all hearing all the information, and was not interested at all, he just shook with a hardened face.

"I don't care about her condition."

Dea's eyes widened hearing the man's thorny answer.

Flashback.

Dea told Elena everything, but Elena shook her head in disbelief. "T-no Dea, where maybe Erick's talking like that, no way."

"You may not believe it, but the facts are like that. Erick was like a person with a new personality when he woke up. I don't understand either. Now at his own request Erick prefers to go home early and be treated at home, without ever checking your situation at all" Dea said sounding desperate, actually did not have the heart to tell the truth, he felt sorry for the current state of his best friend.

"I saw a sharp look in his eyes, he really changed" Dea added.

"I can't believe I didn't hear it right away. Take me to Erick's mas, De .. take me!" Elena suddenly became aggressive, her body shaking with clear crystals slowly shedding on her cheeks.

"Pacify yourself, please," wirred Marvin with hunting breath was overwhelmed because of Elena who rebelled.

Dea unconsciously also cried feeling full and also sick to see Elena's current condition. Though Elena was the one who was so loyal to be beside Erick, but the man in an instant changed, without feeling care for him at all. I don't know what really happened.

Marvin closed his arms to Elena, while the girl appeared to be increasingly stuck on Marvin's shoulders.

"Sister, take me to see Erick .. Please."

"I'll take you to your husband" Marvin said with a flash that filled his eyes. Dea had told her everything, about the tough days Elena had spent as long as she had no side of her little girl. If everything Dea said about Erick was true, for God's sake, Marvin would not remain silent anymore.

...***...

In mansion. Erick lay in his king size still under the doctor's observation. The man said it was fine but it was possible with his condition still weak.

Almost a week after he regained consciousness, Erick is now able to walk and activate his body even though the lower part of his ribs still feels pain after surgery.

"Is there anything you need again? want fruit?" ask Clarissa after she finished feeding Erick the porridge now.

"No I'm full" said Erick, shaking slowly, and his back leaned against the pillow. Trying to relax the body.

"alright. Wait thirty minutes and then take your medicine after that rest, yes" said Clarissa smilingly preparing some grains of medicine that had been prescribed by the doctor to Erick.

"Thank you, you have been faithful to accompany me and take care of me" said Erick smiling sincerely.

The smile that even Clarissa had seen for the first time in her lifetime while getting to know the man.

"Together." Clarissa also felt the warmth that Erick was emitting on her, she pulled both corners of her lips.

Mona came, approached the two and sat down beside Erick who was still lying down.

"Sister, how are you?" Mona draped her spoiled arm around Erick's neck.

"Sister is better ... Aww, don't press there, it still hurts." ringis Erick when Mona's elbow hits her stomach.

"Eh, really forgive me." Mona immediately withdrew.

"Is it really that sick?" Mona grimaced feeling guilty.

"It's okay" said Erick slowly.

"Mona is cheerful again after you are aware and fine, the end of the day I often share a cry with her while waiting for your condition," said Clarissa chuckled softly, see how Mona is so spoiled on Erick.

"really?" Erick looked at the two women before him in turn.

"Of course, since Clarissa and I have a strong bond, we both love our sister. And you know, as long as you are in a critical condition, Clarissa is always beside you, waiting for you to wake up" Mona said with her spirit.

"Sister already knows that. You tell it almost over and over again" said Erick chuckling.

"And for that I'm very grateful to you, Clar," Erick said then with a gentle look at Clarissa.

While the woman just lowered her face, smiling awkwardly. Erick misunderstood, what Mona said was not true at all, Elena should have received the praise, somehow Mona turned the facts upside down and Clarissa herself could not deny it, the result was because Erick was being very gentle with him.

While the three men were chatting and chatting, one of the maids came to tell him something that made Erick's face flat instantly.

"Mrs young, waiting for you downstairs, sir."
