"Yes, but how do I eat?" Elena asked with a confused expression.

"Let me feed you." Brian's words made Elena stare at the man's face for a long time.

​​

Brian ignored Elena's gaze and started holding the spoon and taking the porridge suit. Blew off the pulp before aiming it at Elena's mouth.

"Ah," asked Brian so that Elena would open her mouth.

"I'm not a kid anymore, Brian."

"Yes, but you're a patient who needs help to feed it. So let's open your mouth. Aa." Unable to protest anymore, Elena opened her mouth and ate the porridge Brian handed her.

Brian continues to feed Elena patiently. Until the porridge in the bowl has run out more than half.

"Brian. I'm full." Elena refuses when Brian hands her another spoonful of porridge.

"No, you have to eat all this porridge. So that you get well soon." Brian flirted.

"But my stomach is full."

"Only a few mouthfuls left. Come on, open your mouth."

"No, I'm full." Elena refused again.

"Let's finish the porridge. If you finish all your food, I promise to grant your one wish." Brian flirted again.

"You will grant my one wish." Elena became interested in Brian's offer.

"Yes."

"Whatever my request."

"Sure, while I can grant it, I will. So, let's finish your meal." After confirming his promise, Brian returned to shove a spoonful of porridge towards Elena. And if this Elena opens her mouth and eats. Even though she eats very slowly because she is full.

A few minutes later, the porridge in the bowl finally ran out. And Brian removed the tray by placing it on the nightstand by the bed. Then handed a glass of drinking water to Elena. After that Brian smiled at Elena.

"Look, you can finish all that porridge, can't you?"

"It's because you forced me." Elena replied with a sullen face. Brian smiled and stretched out his finger to wipe the pulp left on the corner of Elena's lips. Brian's action left Elena speechless and stared at the man intensely. After wiping the pulp from Elena's lips, Brian immediately tasted the pulp on his finger.

"Sweet," said Brian with his eyes staring at Elena's lips. Could Brian not act like that? It embarrassed Elena. What did the words that the man spoke meant. Sweet? Elena who ate all the porridge didn't taste the slightest sweetness. The porridge didn't even have the slightest taste, it was so bland. Which makes Elena not appetite. So, the sweet words that Brian said certainly referred to something else, not the porridge. Maybe what the man meant was Elena's lips. Oh, thinking about that makes Elena's face even hotter.

"Elena, your face is turning red. Do you have a fever?" Brian asked panicked and checked Elena's forehead temperature with the back of his hand.

Brian's actions and words made Elena's face even redder. "No, I'm fine."

"Then why is your face red?"

"That's because ..." The door to the room suddenly opened causing Elena to stop her words. She was grateful and thanks to anyone who came. Because she didn't need to feel any more embarrassed.

A woman with a baby in her arms came and walked over to Elena's bed.

"Elise." Called Elena with a smile. And her smile grew wider when she saw Elise come with Dean.

Elise walked closer to Elena's bed and stood beside Brian.

"How are you?"

"It still hurts and aches when I move. So the doctor advised me to get complete rest and not move much." Elena replied, whose eyes were on Dean. The woman missed her son, Dean a lot. Even when she came to her senses and opened her eyes, the first thing she thought of was Dean. How is the son's condition? And luckily Elise came to see her and brought Dean here.

Elise who saw Elena's gaze smiled. And slowly lay Dean beside Elena.

Elena turned to her right, she wanted to turn around, but it was very difficult because moving a little made her feel pain. So she just turned her head to the right side. Elena's left hand rubbed and stroked Dean's thin hair.

As the fat baby lay beside Elena. He is quite enthusiastic and happy. The baby moved his feet and hands while chattering excitedly. Make everyone around him smile.

"Dean missed Mommy, didn't he?" Elena asked by teasing the handsome baby by gently poking his chubby cheeks.

The baby was silent and looked for the source of the sound. He looked right and left. Until finally he met Elena's face. The woman smiled which made Dean smile too. Dean is a smart and smart baby. He even spoke to Elena in his baby language.

Brian and Elise see Elena teasing and playing with Dean. Every now and then they also talked to tease Dean.

After being satisfied playing with Dean. Elena looked up at Elise.

"Thank you for donating your blood for me."

"What did you say? I should have apologized to you. For being a stabbed victim and nearly losing your life just because you have the same face as me."

"No, you don't need to apologize Elise. It's not your fault. Maybe it's my destiny. This way I can rest for a while longer."

"Elena." Elise is grateful that she can get closer and closer to Elena again. The only family she has.

"Have you eaten?" Elise asked.

"Alright." Said Elena, pointing to the bowl above the nightstand.

"Brian, you haven't eaten. So, go find something to eat."

"No, I'm not hungry yet." Reject Brian strongly. Actually he just doesn't want to leave Elena. He was afraid that Elena would need something.

"You'd better get some food in the hospital canteen. I have something to talk to you about anyway." Said Elise staring at Brian's intense.

"Go on. Dean will be fine." Elena pushed hard into Brian's arm.

"Very well. I'll be gone for a moment." Said Brian, who looked down and kissed Dean's right and left cheeks.
