"Viona," called Amina quietly.
"Yup, what's wrong, Amina?" Viona asked as she arranged the muffins in the window. She had just taken them from the oven.
"Your colleagues from the hospital are in our shop, you better hide," Amina replied as she pushed Viona into the pantry.
Viona peeked from behind the curtain, and it turned out that what Amina said was true. In front of her shop, there were Doctor Ashley, Doctor Brian and Nurse Jessica. They were friends with Viona in the hospital. The three people went into the shop to enjoy a muffin and a glass of hot coffee each.
"Did you manage to find where Doctor Angel lives?" Asked Doctor Ashley while munching on a blueberry muffin, which was the best seller muffin at Viona's muffin shop.
"No, I can't even dial her cell phone number," replied Doctor Brian dejectedly.
"Have you heard the reason why she quit?" Asked Nurse Jesicca seriously.
"According to the gossip I heard in the cafeteria, it turns out that Doctor Angel refused to work on the fourteenth floor. You know what kind of patients we have there on the fourteenth floor," added Nurse Jessica while sipping her hot coffee.
"Yes, the news has spread among the hospital staff this week," said Doctor Brian.
"I know what kind of person Doctor Angel is, but she shouldn't have to quit working let alone until he disappears like this," said Doctor Ashley sadly, Viona is her best friend at the hospital.
The three of them then became silent while enjoying their muffin and then soon they left the shop.
"Viona, they're gone now," said Amina quietly from the cashier counter.
"Yes, I know, Amina. I want to rest for a while in my room. Is that okay? Can you handle everything here yourself?" asked Viona from the pantry. Her mood became bad when she heard her colleague's conversation earlier.

"It's okay. Go to sleep when you are tired," Amina replied quickly, she knew that Viona was in a bad mood.
Amina was then busy with other customers who came to their shop. She served customers with a bright smile. It was busy hours for their shop. When winter came, many customers stopped by to buy muffins at their place.
Today was the second time the doctors from the hospital where Viona worked stop by the shop. It made Jenni, who just arrived, feel shocked to see Viona's co-workers in the shop.
She calmed down after being told by Amina that Viona already knew about the presence of her former colleagues. Meanwhile, Viona was still in her room on the second floor, trying to rest. In that shop, she, Jenni, and Amina had been living all this time. They had made the shop a place of business and a place to live.
Viona could clearly see her former co-workers coming out of her shop. There was a tingling feeling in her heart. She wanted to return to work and devoted herself to humanity. If she didn't run away from Canada, maybe now Viona would not be a doctor. Somehow, there was this guilt lingering in her heart for leaving Canada just like that.
"It looks like it's time for me to make up for my guilt," Viona said to herself. She then got up and took her suitcase, and put her clothes in.
"What are you doing, Viona?" Jenni asked. She was surprised when she saw Viona packing.
"I want to relax my mind, Jen," Viona replied with a smile.
"Where are you going?" Jenni asked again, curiously.
"I have to meet someone," Viona said softly.
Jenni was silent. She knew what Viona meant. Finally, Jenni chose to go down to the first floor. Amina was still busy serving customers without knowing that Viona was preparing to leave.

Two hours later, Viona went down to the first floor after the shop was closed because all the muffins were sold out. She looked at her two friends with teary eyes. She had considered her meeting the two girls who had the same unlucky fate as her as fate.
"I want to go for a moment," Viona said softly, carrying her suitcase.
"Where are you going?" asked Amina in shock.
"If you want to calm down, we can accompany you. I just want us to be together like this," added Jenni hoarsely. She had been trying to hold back her tears since two hours ago.
Viona walked over to Jenni and Amina, who looked shocked. They hugged and cried together, remembering the first time they met. Living together for three years is not a short time. Moreover, they had been such good friends over the years. It was so hard to say goodbye.
"I have to apologize for the biggest mistake I've done to someone," Viona said softly as she hugged her siblings.
"Don't tell me you want to go back to Canada," "Amina sobbed with a sigh.
" I have made a mistake to someone, and now I have to make amends. Otherwise, my life will never find peace," replied Viona, wiping her tears.
"You will come back again, right, Viona? "asked Jenni suddenly.
Viona was silent when she got Jenni's question. Her little heart had the same question but she didn't know what the answer was.
"I will contact you when I get there. After my business is finished, I will come back here as soon as possible. You are my family, so there's no way I can stay away from you," said Viona with a trembling voice, holding back her tears.
Jenni and Amina immediately hugged Viona tightly. Their tears immediately streamed down the cheeks again. With a heavy heart, Viona finally left after the taxi she ordered came. Viona handed over her shop to her two good friends who were like sisters to her.
Her objective was to apologize to that person while calming herself down. The taxi that brought her arrived at the airport half an hour later. Viona immediately walked to check-in counter, because the plane would depart in two hours..
"Zeze, I am coming home," Viona muttered inwardly when she boarded the plane that would take her to Canada.
