"Why do I have to see Arvin again? It's really upsetting my mood." Bella grumbled as she walked into the toilet. She then stood in front of the mirror while tidying up the makeup on her face.
"Calm Bella, calm down, don't be provoked by emotions. Don't let my mood get bad." said Bella as she took a deep breath after she finished applying makeup. He then came out of the toilet by sneaking around while checking things out. "It looks like Arvin's gone" said Bella then out of the toilet and walked to the table where Evan was waiting for her.
"I'm sorry it's a little long."
"It's okay, Miss Bella."
"Have you ordered any food?"
"Not yet, I'm waiting for you Ms. Bella."
"Oh, what do you want to order?"
"Anything, it's up to Ms. Bella" Evan replied with a smile.
'Damn, why did my heart get more erratic when I saw her smile.' Bella said in her heart.
While busy ordering food, Evan's phone suddenly rang.
"So soon, Miss Bella, I'll pick up the phone first."
"Yes." replied Bella while nodding.
Evan then walked away from Bella. From a distance Bella was seen observing Evan who was receiving a phone call with a face so serious.
'Who really called Evan? Does she really have a boyfriend? It seems that I should not be too hopeful for him, a handsome man like himself is impossible if he does not have a lover.' Bella murmured in his heart while holding his chest.
'Why does this heart suddenly feel so painful when imagining Evan if he already has a lover? Am I really in love with him? Oh my God, how should I? I have not been able to withstand the heartache of feeling love that has never been reciprocated.' muttered Bella back while looking at Evan who still seemed engrossed in receiving a phone call.

Gibran slowly opened his eyes.
"You're sober?" greet a voice beside him.
Gibran also observed the surroundings, he lay on a narrow bed in a room measuring 3x4 meters. A pretty woman with a simple makeup and a face so innocent now sat next to him.
"You awake?" ask him back.
Gibran then nodded.
"I'm sorry, I accidentally got into your car I got lost and rained so I had to ride in your car without excuse."
"It's okay, I'm just a little surprised that you're suddenly in my car."
"Thank you very much."
"Yes." Yeah."
"Now I'm leaving, thank you for helping me" Gibran said as he tried to get out of bed.
"AAAWWWWW." cried Gibran again.
"Where are you going? You still have a fever, you better rest until your fever goes down. Then what's with your leg? Does your leg hurt?" ask the woman.
"I'm sorry I didn't want to trouble you."
"No, you're not bothering me. You just stay here, at least until your fever goes down, it looks like you should check your legs too, look at your feet now look so swollen."
"really?"
"Yes, look at it. Your legs are swollen, what exactly has happened?"
"I fell down."
"Yes, I fell while riding a motorcycle and my legs hurt a lot."
"So which is true? Are you lost or have you just fallen while riding a motorcycle?" ask the woman back who makes Gibran now look so nervous.
"Emh.. E.. Actually, I was going to go to the city, but I got lost, while observing the area around me falling from the motor and then it rained heavily. I've been very cold and I can't stand my sore feet anymore, so that's the real reason I got in your car" Gibran said nervously.
'May this woman believe.' Gibran murmured inwardly at the sight of the woman still looking at him with a question mark.
Suddenly the woman's face changed. "What a pity, you're so poor, why didn't you say that earlier if you just had an accident? If you've said that since then, I would have taken you to the hospital" said the woman with such pity.
'Successfully, this woman believed me.' Gibran said inwardly while smiling at the woman.
"I'm sorry what's your name?" ask the woman.
"Gibran, my name is Gibran."
"Oh Gibran, I'm Riana. Now let's go to the hospital."
"Hospital?"
"Yes, we have to know your true condition, you see your feet just swell, even though I just knew you I didn't want anything to happen to you, shouldn't fellow humans help each other?" riana said with a smile.
Gibran also nodded.
'Well, isn't the hospital a public place? What if the guards had contacted the police and the police were checking all public places in the area? I must be vigilant.' Gibran murmured inwardly.
"How about, let's go now to the hospital to treat the fever and pain in your leg."
"Emh, e yes. But Riana do you have a mask?"
"Mask?"
"Yes, my nose is a little sensitive to the smell of drugs in the hospital."
"Oh of course, I have a mask, I also always use a mask when going to the garden. I'll take it for a moment" Riana said and walked out of the room.
"This is the mask" Riana said, giving Gibran a mask.
"Thank you." replied Gibran while taking the mask.
"Now, let's go to the hospital" Riana said.
"Yes" replied Gibran and tried to get out of bed so tired.
"Let's help" Riana said as she held Gibran's hand and back.
With a bit of effort, they then walked towards Riana's tub car, after helping Gibran ride his car, Riana then sat next to him and drove the car to the nearest hospital. Fifteen minutes later, they arrived at the hospital. Riana then asked some medics to help Gibran get out of his car to be taken to the ER room.
'Okay this girl, she reminds me of Rachel whose heart is so sincere when helping someone.' Gibran murmured as she was already in the ER room. Moments later, a doctor came to check on Gibran's condition.
"How's my friend doc?" ask Riana.
"It looks like his leg bones are fractured, we should check his condition further" the doctor said.
"Okay doc, please give my friend the best care."
Gibran was surprised to hear Riana's words.
'Didn't I just meet her? But why would he help me selflessly like this? He reminds me of Rachel. For the past four years I've been struggling to forget Rachel but seeing this girl seems to evoke my memories with Rachel when she was Almira.' gibran murmured inwardly while enduring the tightness in his chest.
'Ra, I miss you.'
