Chapter 5 5

He squeezed his sharp nose, so that it blushed.

We were only a few purges away from each other, so I checked her appearance more.

Her pitch black hair was clean and a bit long. His eyebrows were thick. The eyelashes are long and fluffy. The eyes are earth -colored and if he stares at you it seems to be absorbing you.

Down to the long and sharp nose. The red lips I just tasted. What? N-Tasted?

Then down to his jaw. He was wearing their doctor's robe and a white shirt on the inside, which made his handsome body better.

He is also tall and mixed race. So his masculine beauty became more refined.

He has long fingers and ... okay, I've been here before, huh?

Her lips pressed tightly together and my heart pounded.

He also has two deep dimples on both his cheeks!

I even forgot when he looked at me violently. The expression of his handsome face is gone.

"Who the h-ll are you? Is that your name, Mareng?" he asked coldly and I winced at his name.

Embarrassing!

"We're not even close so you can call me, Mareng," I said firmly and his eyebrows rose.

"Then who are you?"

"Why are you asking me? I don't know you either," I said rudely and got down from the table I was sitting at.

I'm still frowning because my knee hurt earlier. But I'm desperate to get out of here. I don't want to be with the doctor stealing a kiss.

"You are so stubborn, woman," he said coldly but calmly.

He grabbed my arm and I quickly slapped his hand.

"Don't touch me," I promised without emotion.

"Oh." The corner of his lip rose.

To be honest, this guy is intimidating. It's like you're going to be sucked in because then his aura is mysterious. Am I afraid of him?

"Mareng! Your grandmother Inding!"

Chapter 5 (2.3)

I FELT like I was drenched in cold water and I was nervous for Grandma Inding.

I no longer cared about my sore knee because I was already running fast.

The corners of my eyes were heating up and I was trembling with fear.

"He's already in the doctors' ambulance, Mareng," Gabril said and chased after me.

I saw the ambulance but it just stopped. I ran to it and it opened immediately.

"L-Lola ..." I called my grandmother who was now lying on the stretcher and there were a few nurses and doctors.

"A-Apo k-ko ..." Grandma said weakly and I got in the ambulance.

I held her hands tightly. My grandmother's hand was very cold.

"L-Lola Inding ... O-Are you okay?" I tearfully asked him.

The lids of his eyes are heavy and he is just forcing himself not to close them.

The speed of my heartbeat and it seemed to tear.

"L-Lola ..."

"T-Do you still remember what I-I-said to you, grandson? S-In the blink of an eye the t-course of your life will change, Marshin ..."

I don't like the way grandma said it. It seems to let me know and that's what I really don't want.

I also feel that my grandmother Inding will be released soon. He was very weak and his hand was getting heavier.

Please ... I still don't want to ... H-Don't take my grandmother from me right away. P-Please, Lord.

Please have mercy on me. I still don't want to be separated from grandma. S-He's all I have.

"L-Grandma ..."

"Grandpa, hold on to your heart. Now, destiny begins. H-Didn't I say n-that you have to choose?" I shuddered at what my grandmother had told me.

At first, I didn't like his figurative words. I was confused and I hated it. Because he seemed to know very well what my destiny would be.

"Grandpa ... you know I can't ..." he said softly.

My tears fell from my eyes and my chest tightened.

"A-It's your deceit, l-grandma. H-Don't be like that. H-Don't a-leave me, please, grandma ... I-I love you so much and you're the only one who has me, grandma. Don't be like that, "I stammered and sobbed along.

I'm not ready, I'm not ready to let go of my grandmother.

"You have to choose, grandson. Is it me or him ..." he said and looked out of the ambulance.

I looked there when I saw a man earlier. I quickly looked at my grandmother and saw that she had closed her eyes. I cried even more.

"Grandma, eh!" I cried and shook his shoulder and he woke up immediately.

"Lola ..."

"I-I love you so much, grandson. You're just my favorite grandson ..."

"S-Of course I'm just your grandson, grandma!"

"Marshin, many more trials are coming into your life and don't give up ..."

I shake her repeatedly and my vision starts to blur because of my tears incessantly pouring out of it.

"Grandma, just take me with you. I-I don't want this anymore, grandma. Please ... don't leave me, grandma. I-I can't ..." my voice weakened when I saw grandma smiled and at the same time closed her eyelids.

I tightened my grip on his hand, as if I didn't want to let go either.

"Grandma!" I cried calling grandma when I felt her hands slowly release.

"N-Don't be like that, grandma! N-Grandma. T-Let's go ... U-Let's go home. Wake up, please! My grandma!"

The lives of the people? That is very important. But it is also easy to take it back from us. We cannot dictate our death.

Because that is our destiny. That is what is engraved on our palms. Our lives are just borrowed.

Chapter 5 (3.3)

I hugged my grandmother's dress tightly.

Her last dress before she disappeared. It really hurts.

It hurts so much to see your lonely family gradually disappearing from you.

It seems to tear your heart to witness the death of your loved one.

H-I'm not ready when my grandmother leaves me. Extreme pain and loss of appetite. With the desire to live.

I did nothing but just cry and cry.

Today is my grandmother's last day but I don't want to go out of my grandmother's little house.

G-I also want to follow grandma, I also want to go with her.

"Mareng," Gabril called to me.

Gabril never left my side and he was always there to support me.

I just sat in the corner of our house and cried and cried.

I know my friend is used to seeing me brave and often without emotion on the face.

But, there also comes a time when we will be weak and crying will calm our broken hearts.

If you don't shed the tears my chest will be heavier too. Until you can't take it anymore.

"Come on, Mareng ..."

Gabril hugged me tightly and I leaned into his chest. He stroked my hair.

"Home ... Everything will be fine, Mareng."

When I woke up, we attended my grandmother's funeral.

But I stopped crying, not because I didn't want my countrymen to see me as weak.

My tears seemed to be gone but my eyes were still full.

My grandmother and I had a hard life, so our local mayor spent it all.

Gabril was just standing by my side and supporting me. I was gripped by my chest when I saw my grandmother's coffin slowly coming down.

Deep down I was crying. It was as if a knife had pierced my heart. It hurts.

"L-Lola ..."

You're away from me grandma. And h-I can't reach you anymore. I'll never see you again, grandma.

Grandma, I miss you so much. Why did you leave me in the morning? H-I'm not ready yet, eh.

***

After my grandmother's funeral, I was just an idiot and my mind floated.

Gabril came home earlier but my grandmother's close friend left. Which Susan.

I felt someone sit next to me and I immediately smelled his familiar scent.

Stupidly I looked at him. My lips moved as if to speak but my mouth also folded.

"You can come with me. Come with me to Manila," he said and frowned at me.

End of chapter 5.
