Words I Was Afraid To Hear
Chapter 68 - Fiancé
"Too bad my fiancé is that loser." Madeline Song licked her lips and pointed towards Dan's direction using her thumb.
"Why you little..!" Dan was furious. He stomped his way towards them.
Before he reached where they were, Madeline Song had strode towards the door.
"Ciao!" She waved her hand without turning back and shot the door behind her.
Midori had an expression that was difficult to describe. She recalled an event a few weeks ago when she was shopping for clothes.
"Midori Xiu, is that really you?" A lady with a huge pair of b.r.e.a.s.ts that could cause her a back injury came walking towards her before she could can an attendant for dress fitting.
She pondered on the identity of this girl. Then as if recalling, her face lit up. "Madeline Song?"
"Yes! I knew you won't easily forget me."
It was a bit awkward as huge masses of fat hit Midori's c.h.e.s.t as the curvy woman pulled her to an embrace. That and, aren't they rivals? Well, it was several years back, and is the rivalry just made up as they were kids?
"You're gorgeous. Wanna go grab some coffee?" Madeline's hand sn.a.k.e.d from Midori's shoulder, tracing her spine.
Before the hand can reach her b.u.t.t.o.c.k.s, she instinctively stepped away.
"Uhm...maybe next time. I...I need to go now." Without looking back, she hurriedly went to another store.
"Dori..." Dan's voice snapped her from the memory. "Are you alright?"
She nodded, but there were tears in her eyes.
He stepped forward tp her, but her voice stopped him.
"Don't go near!" She was trembling. Then she ran to the bathroom.
After a while, he went into the bedroom carrying a bowl of hot n' sour soup. He found Midori on the bed, clutching the sheets.
He placed the tray on the bedside table. "Hey, look at me..." He tried to pull the sheets off of her.
When he succeeded, her gloomy face appeared.
He had a gentle smile on his face. Then he held the soup near her. "Have some soup."
She complied, slowly taking in about two spoonfuls. Then she put down the spoon.
Dan placed the bowl back on the table. Then he embraced her.
"I...I was...I was kissed by someone else!" she cried.
Indeed, it did not matter if it was a guy or a girl. She felt violated by being kissed by someone else. Though Dan has his tricks sometimes, because she had feelings for him, she never felt this way.
"It's fine. You've already washed your face, right?" He rubbed her back.
"It's not fine!" She was protesting like a spoiled kid.
"Then let me wipe that memory."
"Wha-" Before she could clarify, he had taken her lips into a passionate kiss.
Midori was panting as she broke the kiss. "Hey...why...why did she...she said...you're his fiancé?"
Dan frowned. "The handiwork of my mother." He sighed. "It's just for show...for us both. As you can see, she likes girls. And of course, I will only marry you." His face was turned into a gentle smile.

In an intensive care room of a private hospital, the neurology team was doing their rounds.
As they were assessing for response, a resident noted that the patient moved his finger when pain was elicited. "Dr. Chen, the patient withdraws to pain!"
The one called Dr. Chen tried to elicit the response, and there was it. Movement. He tried to elicit movement by calling the patient's name while tapping his shoulder, with no success. However, he now responds to pain. It was still a response nonetheless! He looked at the patient on tracheostomy tube. Finally, there is hope that he will wake up.
Dr. Chen went out of the room as he tried to call Madam Xiu.
