- Good morning, boy! - I greeted him after bending down and stroking his head, he received me with licks and wagging his tail frantically, I smiled with his gesture and got up, walking to the kitchen, I had bought a few things for him the next day I brought him home, I had bought his food, a bed bigger than his size, but it would be used even when he grew up and a guide, so I could go out with him, I didn't want an animal that would give me trouble on the street, so I decided to educate him correctly, I didn't buy a pot since he was small, and I wouldn't buy several times as he grows up, so I'm just using the plate I got the first time, I bent down in front of the cupboard and got the bag of feed, pouring it on the plate, he started to make a big party, jumping on my leg trying to reach the plate, it was cute, but I know that if I leave him with that kind of behavior I will have problems in the future. - Wait, you will only eat when you calm down. - I put some water in the kettle and

- What happened to her? - I asked apprehensively, already looking at her house, waiting for the woman to take the lead. - I don't know, she's had a fever for a few days, and it hasn't improved, at the hospital they said it was just a cold and that with medication it would soon get better, I don't know, but what to do. - Flora explained desperately while she took me to her house, I could see from afar how apprehensive the woman was, after all she no longer had a husband, and now with her sick daughter, it was double the work. - Stay calm, I'll see what's wrong. - I said as we strolled through the garden and onto the veranda. Flora opened the door and took me from the living room upstairs to the little girl's room, and as soon as I saw her lying on her bed I knew something was very wrong, the child's skin was so pale it looked like she was dead. - Call a cab or an ambulance, whichever comes first. - I said as I let go of Akira's collar on the floor who began to stir awkwardly sniffing

- I'm not the father, I'm just a friend, her mother is right behind the lady. - I warned her, since I couldn't take any responsibility for the girl. - I understand, no problem, let me examine the little girl. - The doctor came closer and unwrapped Megan like a delicate gift package just removed a little of the cloth and began to pass the object by the child's chest starting to hear something, if I remember well the name was stethoscope, I remembered when the doctor did the same in my chest, when I was younger, I had asked what was that and what was it for, the same explained to me that it was to hear the inside of the body, but clearly. While we waited for the doctor to speak what was happening Flora was trembling beside me, the woman was so tense that she was perspiring, I held her hand gently and smiled at her trying to reassure her even though I knew that a simple touch would not change anything. - Everything is going to be fine! - I spoke in the meantime, and as soon as I releas

Sometimes it is interesting how life turns us upside down, one moment we are doing very well and the next we have to run to a hospital for fear that a loved one will die, when Flora called me desperate because she couldn't call an ambulance, I was distressed, I knew that the youngest was sick, but she had apparently gotten worse, was already in the studio at that time about to start painting, but as soon as my phone rang, and I knew of her despair I wasted no time and called Mr. Joseph, it was funny how life puts people in your life at the right time, can be a way to give a little push in our lives, as if she knew everything that was about to happen. I had left everything behind without time to explain, at that moment I could no longer remember Draven or my painting, only Megan came into my mind, I grabbed my bag and ran out of the studio listening to Draven and Kiana's questioning. The hospital was not far, I just had to walk a little to the right of the studio, when I arrived I saw

There were only a few people inside, the beds were all next to each other and there was a big open door on the other side of the room, I ran my eyes around the place and saw the same man approaching Ethan and Flora, when I was about to approach I heard the woman's voice a little high - You! - Flora looked very tormented, even with that one little word I knew there would be no good there. - What's wrong with me? Is there a problem? - Unsurprisingly, the man was totally cynical. - You were the one who said my daughter had just a little flu, are you happy now? What kind of doctor gives a diagnosis without even looking at it properly? - Now I understood why the woman's reaction was so sweet, I had never seen her talk like that to anyone. - I think you are confusing me with someone else, ma'am. - As the man had his back to me, I didn't know what his look was at that moment, but from his voice I knew he was mocking the situation. - I'm not confusing you, you're the one who said it was j

I looked up only to see my neighbor looking at me with a little corner smile, probably mocking my face, but I didn't blame him I had probably embarrassed myself trying to stand up to a man, but tall and mostly but strong, I have no doubt that if that man had hit me, I would have fainted in seconds. - No need to mock me, I'm embarrassed enough as it is. - I replied as I ran my hands over my face, trying to control the nervousness I was still feeling. - I'm not mocking, in fact, I would have done the same, but someone beat me to it. - The man spoke as he walked in front of me and sat down next to me, I straightened my posture and looked at him somewhat incredulously since he seemed so calm at that moment. - Hard to believe. - I said as I narrowed my eyes at him, and the man smiled and looked back at me. - Maybe it's really hard to believe that I would hit another man over a woman, but I would be willing to if it was for those two. - Ethan leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms

"Breathe Ayanne, Flora is not dead! She will wake up soon! It's okay! PLEASE, GREAT! DON'T GO INTO PANIC, YOU SILLY GIRL! I had started to scream in my mind when I was pulled to the side, not understanding anything, the woman's hand was not there, but in mine, but that feeling still persisted, I looked to see who had pulled me and I saw another woman taking care of Flora, at least it wasn't that man, I don't know if I could protect her from him. Ethan still hadn't returned, so I tried my best to stay focused and forget what had happened, I couldn't become a nuisance to them, I wiped my eyes and took a deep breath, looking at what the doctor was doing with the woman lying on the bed. - What happened to her doctor? - I asked when I finally managed to normalize my voice. - She had a drop in pressure and seems a little dehydrated, I'm going to put her on an IV. - The woman finally answered by looking at me. - Is that bad? - I asked, not understanding what that meant. - It's not as bad

Draven was so cute every time I heard him I was happy, I didn't know how this feeling came about, but I liked it, even if sometimes he seems a little strange, but who isn't strange in our life? It is not as if we are all perfect, after all, be wary of what seems perfect may be just a shell, I live in my shell, but Draven shows me that he already left it a long time ago, when the man invited me to eat on the first day, I had been in doubt especially with his initial behavior, but knowing him better I could see that he was not all that, and I believe that was what made me accept him. - All right, see you later! - That was the last thing I said before I heard his nasalized smile and the man hung up. I looked at my cell phone screen again smiling and feeling happy, it seemed that the crisis I had had before didn't even exist, but, he was my unconscious cure, I knew I was doing the right thing, still smiling, I put the cell phone in my purse and turned my gaze to the woman and the child i

- But... - I was interrupted by him. Are you afraid that your boyfriend won't like seeing you with another man? - Just at that moment he had looked at me, but I didn't understand why. - N-no, that's not why. - I had been shy about the mention of the word boyfriend and didn't know how to react to it. - So you just don't want to be seen with me, I see, that's fine, I'll just drop you off at the door of the hosp - It's not that either, actually, I don't know exactly, it just feels like I'm being inconvenient! - I answered absently as I ran my hand through my hair and threw it back, I didn't want to talk that way, and it made me feel weird, a lot of the time I didn't know what Ethan was talking about, he made me feel strange things, it wasn't like Draven who made me comfortable next to him, only in the moments that the man was very close I felt a strange tingling in my belly, but with Ethan it was different, this feeling appeared every time the man did something, just looking at me was

Chapter 59
Lunch with Draven was very quiet, he was excitedly telling me about a trip he had taken to Canada and how amazing everything was, I was trying to pay as much attention as possible while he was talking, but it was almost impossible, since I was worried about Megan, I didn't blame the man, Probably he was just trying to distract me a little, when we got back to the studio, Kiana filled me with questions about what happened and who was the man who was with me in front of the studio, apparently she had seen me with Ethan and since she is new in town like me, she must not know who the man was. I explained very little, I just said that he was my neighbor and that he brought me from the hospital, I didn't want to say anything that was private or anything that he didn't like because I believe that we still don't have this degree of intimacy, either with my neighbor or with Kiana, since it hadn't been so many months since we were all their learning together, but leaving that aside, I went back
