Louis was amazed to hear Angelina refer to him as brother. Then Louis chuckled to himself."Brother?" Louis muttered under his breath but Angelina could hear him."I don't have anyone here anymore, my mum and little brother have gone to be with God, and Josh said I could think of you guys as brothers. Do you mind, Louis?" asked Angelina with a hopeful look in her eyes."No-no, of course I don't mind, Angelina, I'm just happy to hear the call. Aren't you, Josh?" replied Louis.Josh nodded his head several times. "Yes, that's right, we'd love it if you'd consider us your brothers, Angelina," Josh continued to add to what Louis had said."Thank you very much," said Angelina gratefully."By the way, you always say your mum and younger brother died but you never say where your dad is, Angelina, whether your dad has also passed away or ...."Louis did not continue his words because he saw the look on Angelina's face that suddenly changed after hearing Louis mention about father."Ah, sorry,
Instead of accusing, Josh suspects that Louis told Alex about their existence, because Josh forgot to tell Louis to keep Angelina's existence a secret from Alex.Louis shook his head. "No, I didn't. In fact, Alex hasn't contacted me at all," Louis replied, frowning."Let's see, so we know who's coming," Angelina chimed in.Josh nodded. "Let me open the door, I'm the one who booked this apartment," Josh said as he got up from his seat. Josh's position was then replaced by Louis who was now sitting right next to Angelina.Louis sighed, still feeling guilty about his question a few moments ago which was able to make Angelina remember the bitter past."Angelina, once again I apologise. I shouldn't make you remember the bitter things you've experienced after you've struggled to get up from that difficult life," Louis said with a heavy sigh."You don't need to apologise repeatedly, Louis, you're innocent. I'm okay. It's all in the past anyway. it's in the past. I feel relieved now that I c
"What do you want Alex to do if Alex chooses Camila, Angelina?" asked a curious Josh, not unlike a curious Louis."For this matter, sorry, I can't tell you. Let only me know," replied Angelina refusing to answer.Louis and Josh both nodded in understanding, not wanting to force it if Angelina didn't want to say it. The girl must have her own reasons, right?"Yes, we understand," Louis replied on behalf of Josh as well."Angelina, is it okay if we talk about Alex now? Is it okay if I tell you Alex's message, and tell you what I heard Alex say on the phone?" asked Josh, seeking Angelina's approval first."Yeah, just say it if you think it's something you need to say. I'll hear it," replied Angelina, inviting Josh to speak."Alex is worried about you, Angelina. And from his tone I can tell he must be very frustrated." Josh began to say."Not frustrated about me leaving, right? Tsk, of course not," Angelina said quickly."Yes, he was frustrated because he was looking for you. I also got a
"What are you thinking about me? Tell me quickly, Josh, Louis!" said Angelina again because the question did not get an answer."Ah? Ee ... that, we ....""You guys don't want to talk, huh?" insisted Angelina continuously."N-no, Angelina, that's not it. We... we just think you're very pretty and charming," Josh stammered back."And we just realised," Louis continued."Yes, we did. No wonder Alex is enamoured with you," Josh continued."Yeah, right, right," Louis added with a grin."Is that really all you guys think about?" asked Angelina again, still pressing."Y-yes, that's it, nothing else," Josh replied quickly though a little haltingly."Yeah, nothing else, just a bit of lust-"Josh immediately shut up Louis who he thought was so stupid. Couldn't keep his words.Feeling guilty, Louis didn't rebel, he just grinned like a fool."Tsk! Men, all the same, perverts!" Angelina swore openly then she got up and went to her room again.Louis and Josh could only gawk at Angelina walking awa
Josh was surprised to hear Angelina's sentence which sounded hesitant and stammered."No, that's not what I meant, Angelina. Sorry to make you misunderstand," said Josh immediately correcting his words before Angelina thought anything."But there is only one room here, Josh, we can't sleep together, right?" said Angelina feeling anxious. Especially since Josh and Louis had said that they were both interested in Angelina."True, there is only one room here. You sleep in the room, and I'll sleep on the sofa in front," Josh replied without thinking twice."But, Josh, sleeping on the sofa won't make you comfortable," Angelina responded."No problem, Angelina, I can sleep on the sofa. Unless you want us to sleep together here, I'll be happy to do that," Josh chirped, which immediately made the girl scramble to make a protective gesture."You ... are you sure you want to sleep with me? Aren't you afraid Alex will skin you? What if Alex's demon soul awakens and you're killed in the blink of
Josh immediately turned his attention, to stare at the person who had just spoken."Angelina, aren't you sleeping?" Josh asked and then stood up."I heard you were calling someone, so I came out," replied Angelina while sitting on the sofa, followed by Josh who was sitting next to Angelina."Was it Alex who called?" asked Angelina once again."Yes," Josh replied as he put his mobile phone on the table, which he had been holding."What did he say?" asked Angelina curiously."He's worried about you," Josh replied matter-of-factly, not intending to cover up.Thinking about it, Josh is like a bridge of communication between Alex and Angelina who are fighting. But it's okay, he sincerely helped Alex and Angelina so that the two of them got back together and forgave each other."He's worried about me after he gave me a wound? Will he only treat someone well after he hurts?" sneered Angelina with the remaining resentment that still enveloped her heart.When she imagined how Alex and Camila p
Angelina slumped down. Josh swiftly caught Angelina's body so that the girl did not touch the cold floor."Angelina, you're very pale. What are you feeling? I'll take you to the hospital. Hang in there, Angelina," Josh said frantically, as he lifted Angelina's body and carried her in a manly fashion.Angelina gripped Josh's arm firmly, signaling. Recognizing the gesture, Josh looked at Angelina questioningly."What's wrong, Angelina?""Don't take me to the hospital," Angelina pleaded weakly."But, Angelina--""There are so many bitter memories at the hospital. I'm... better off here. Please... just take me... to the room," Angelina said brokenly due to her very weak condition.Josh sighed. The man wanted to argue but he couldn't bear to see Angelina have to raise her voice again to argue with him when she was so weak.Josh sighed, and finally the man could only give in."Okay, I'll take you to your room."Not waiting for Angelina to reply, Josh had already stepped into the room.Slowl
Josh held the flat, rectangular object to his ear, waiting for someone on the other side to answer his call."I've only been gone a short while, do you miss me already, Josh?"The voice sounded mocking from the person Josh was calling."Don't dream!" snapped Josh with a snort, hearing the doctor who was his best friend talk about missing.Louis chuckled. "So what's wrong with you calling me again? You couldn't sleep because you used to sleep under your mum's armpit and now you have to sleep alone?" Louis joked."Don't joke around! I can sleep better here because I'll be sleeping with Angelina, in the same bed.""What? You're an arsehole, Josh!" Louis cursed."Hey, why are you suddenly calling me a jerk?""Because you're a jerk! You took advantage of an opportunity. When Angelina was fighting with Alex you wanted to stab Alex in the back? You savage! What kind of friend are you?" Louis said at length."What are you thinking? Do you think I'm going to fuck Angelina? I'm just saying I'm
