Chapter 6
ML's point of view:
When Ela got out of the car and quickly grabbed Yanna, whom she calls her BFF, I also got out and told the driver to leave and just send my things to Zan's condo.
As soon as they left, I approached Zan, who was still standing there, clearly surprised and annoyed by what his sister did.
Even I would be surprised by Ela's actions. Do I look like a ghost or a bad person for her to rush and grab her best friend suddenly?
Nevertheless, my best friend was still staring into space, so I moved her and stood beside her.
"Hey, Zan, you're spacing out again. Is something wrong? Anyway, I left my stuff with the driver because I'm going to follow them inside." I said, leaning against her car and standing beside her.
"Okay, wait what, why?" she asked, still looking at the hospital entrance.
"Oh, about that, I was in a hurry to follow them inside. So, bye," I said as I started walking towards the hospital entrance when Zan suddenly grabbed my wrist. It hurt like hell! So I immediately looked at her, and her eyes seemed like they could pierce through me.
"I'm coming with you," she said coldly, and I patiently waited for her while she's telling her driver to go ahead and put her things in her condo.
Then, we entered the hospital and looked for the two. They walked pretty fast even though they were smaller than Zan and me.
As we walked and searched for them, people passing by looked at us, maybe because we looked ugly or because of our aura today. Anyway, we finally found them. They were so cute; it's a good thing we followed them because the kids were hugging them tightly, one almost burying their face, and Ela was smiling like a flower blooming in the garden. She didn't mind the kids squeezing around her; maybe because they missed their doctors.
While staring at them for a minute, I also looked at Zan's reaction, and I wasn't wrong; her expression melted too. We must have looked crazy staring from a distance just to see them. When I looked at them again, I got annoyed; my poker face must have come back because who wouldn't? Ela was talking to a guy, and they seemed to be teasing each other because Ela was playfully hitting him with a smile on her face. So, I looked at Zan, and her expression changed too, furrowing my brows.
"Why do you look like that? I should be annoyed by what your sister is doing," I said while looking at her.
"Do you have the right? You've just met each other," she sermonized.
"But you and Yanna, too! And why were you staring like you were melting earlier?" I immediately retorted.
"Well, because I'm not familiar with that guy, and, bro, do you know how he looks at the two? Like he's interested in them,." she said seriously, looking at me.
"So, what are we going to do?" I said while smirking.
Then she smirked too, like we were both thinking the same thing. So, when they were heading to the children's room, we followed behind them.
Once everyone was inside, we peeked into the room through the screen walls since it was transparent glass. It was perfect timing because the kids were already seated inside the room, and Yanna and Ela were starting to talk, while the guy just looked at them with a smile on his face, which I didn't like at all.
"Children! Doc Yanna has brought you some gifts as she just came back from a medical mission abroad." Ela mentioned Yanna's name, and suddenly, I looked at Zan, who had a huge smile in her eyes.
I don't know, but she seems like a proud CEO. Now Yanna was speaking, giving out her gifts to the kids, and as she did, Zan pulled me, dragging me away to a corner of the hospital.
"What's that?" I said, annoyed.
"Shh~ i saw guys talking, and they're carrying flowers and a cake toward the children's room" she said, sending chills down my spine.
"What the f**k!? Who's that?!" I said, about to storm into their room, but Zan stopped me.
"Don't jump to conclusions, Thyme. Besides, she's still my sister, and Yanna is there. Let's think positively; maybe it's for the kids, or maybe it's one of their birthday parties." Zan said calmly.
Well, she could be right about that thought. I just felt stupid thinking that those flowers and cake were for Ela, but who wouldn't?
"Let's do this. I have a plan," I immediately said.
"What?" Zan said, curious.
"Just send a food truck here, the best one, and also set up dining tables, balloons, toys, especially flowers and cakes, make sure there's a lot, so that all the kids in this hospital can enjoy," I said while grinning.
"Got it, but who told you that you can order me around? I'm the boss, right?" Zan said, giving me a headache.
"I don't have any contacts here in the Philippines, okay? And I've helped you a lot, and if you're forgetting, I'm also a CEO." I said playfully to her.
"Alright, by 11:00 a.m before lunch, everything will be here, I'll just instruct my secretary," Zan said, giving me her famous smirk.
