The Twin Bed (Wrong Bed)
Stop Floating

Amber walks into her apartment feeling empty and a little claustrophobic given her first encounter with Jeff that she did not expect. "Cold" a single word that was in his mind at this moment recalled Jeff's attitude towards him. After tidying up his belongings in the room, Amber walked to the balcony of the apartment and enjoyed the bustling view of Manhattan.

Her lips that were extending a smile were very contrary to the feeling she was feeling right now. The tightness he felt was increasingly powerless to make a single clear liquid drip down his cheek. He then closed his eyes as he muttered inwardly. 'Actually I want to be a rainbow for you, but unfortunately I have to be quite satisfied if my destiny turns out to be just an umbrella for you, ' Amber murmured as she slowly wiped away the tears that were rushing down her face.

Amber took a deep breath and exhaled. "Amber, remembrance. All I need is money from Jeff, not love. I needed a job so I could survive with Mommy, and poor people like us shouldn't think too much about love that will only take up time and feelings" Amber complained with a wry smile. He then walked into his apartment. However, when he was about to enter his room suddenly his head felt very heavy, and instantly his body collapsed right in front of the room door.

"Oh no, why is my head suddenly so dizzy" muttered Amber as she held her head. He then tried to stand up, but his body immediately felt so weak. But Amber tried to keep getting up, though she limped in and walked to the room and dropped her body on the bed.

"Why did my body suddenly become weak like this?" gerutu Amber while kneading her temple.

"If my body condition is this weak tomorrow I definitely can't work, I don't want to embarrass Jeff in front of his friend. Better now I tell Jeff that tomorrow I can't work at his friend's cafe" Amber said. He then picks up his phone and sends Jeff a message.

...***...

Jeff had just walked out of the meeting room when the sound of his phone rang. He then took the phone and opened a message from Amber. Suddenly, the look of his face changed. 'Get sick? Wasn't he okay?' jeff muttered as he walked into his room.

He then dropped his body on his chair and fiddled with his phone to call Amber.

[Hello Amber.]

[Hello Jeff.]

[Are you sick?]

[My head is just a little dizzy, maybe I'm a little tired.]

[Oh well, you better rest now.]

[Yes, Jeff.] Amber answered on the other end of the line.

Jeff continued his work, but his feelings were so unsettled that he did not concentrate. Finally, he decides to leave his office and go to Amber's apartment. Before arriving at the apartment, Jeff first bought drugs at the pharmacy.

"Amurin!" scream Jeff.

"Sorry, Jeff. I don't seem to be feeling well enough, so maybe tomorrow I can't start working at your friend's cafe."

"A little unwell? Your face is pale, Amber. You must be sick, let's go to the hospital now to check on you."

"It's okay, Jeff. I don't want to bother you."

"You're not bothering me, Amber. You're sick, let's go to the hospital now!" force Jeff while pulling Amber's hand.

"Slowly, Jeff. My head is so dizzy."

"So you can't walk all the way to the basement?"

"Can, I can. But slow down.".

They then left Amber's apartment. Jeff then led Amber's body which now looks very limp.

"Amber, let me just carry you" said Jeff.

"It's okay, Jeff. I can walk..."

Amber had not been able to continue her words, suddenly Jeff stopped Amber's steps and bent his body and immediately lifted Amber's body into his carrier.

"Jeff!" meek Amber was so surprised that suddenly Jeff just carried her.

"Your body is already so weak like this and you still say you're strong enough to walk? Don't act like you're strong just to cover up your weakness, Amber" Jeff said.

Amber just put a smile on her lips. 'It feels very comfortable. Lord, may this time cease to beat once that I may feel happiness that I may at some time find again, or may this happiness that I may never again feel,' amber murmured while leaning her head on Jeff's field chest.
