Episode 13

Alexander, I'm still listening to what's happening to the doctor, and I'm filled with rage when I hear that stupid Lucas telling her to marry that idiot cousin he has in Spain. No, not even in her dreams! I need a wife, and she needs to leave the country undetected. So she will help me calm down my grandfather, and I will help her by getting her out of the country. Although I hear her speaking, I haven't been able to see her face yet. However, I have decided to help her. I'll keep her with me. I leave the hallway when I receive a call from my grandfather.

Alexander: "Grandpa, is something wrong? Is everyone okay?"

Demian (grandfather): "Calm down, son. We're fine. I'm calling you to ask about Dante. You haven't given me an update on how he's doing, and his mother is already calling home to check on him. He hasn't called them in two days, and that has his family worried."

Alexander: "Maybe he just forgot to do it. He is conscious now; he only needs one more evaluation before he is discharged. I hope tomorrow we can go home."

Demian (grandfather): "Okay, son. I'll be waiting for your return. And tell that unconscious Dante that if he doesn't want to be cut off from his inheritance, he should call his parents."

Alexander: "Of course, Grandpa. I'll tell him right now. See you."

I say goodbye to my grandfather. I continue walking down the hall, checking emails on my phone when I feel a little bump on my chest. I look down, and it's a beautiful lady with white skin, straight black hair, brown eyes, and medium-sized but very tempting lips. She is short, but what a stunning woman! I would like to continue admiring her body, but I decide to ask.

Alexander: "Are you alright?"

Andrea: "Ye-yes."

She stammers, and it makes her even more adorable. Even though I was captivated by what I saw and already decided that Dr. Smith will be my wife, I decide to ask about her.

Alexander: "Could you help me? I'm looking for Dr. Smith."

I see her surprised expression, and she answers.

Andrea: "At your service."

I'm breathless. This beautiful woman will be my wife. I decide to ask her about Dante so it wouldn't be so obvious that I'm staring at her like an idiot. But when she asks me who my brother is, she receives a call. I notice that she tenses up, and I know who it is. I tell her that if she minds, she can wait for me here. She replies no and leaves. I take the opportunity to call Mauro, our hacker.

Alexander: "Mario, I need you to get me all the information about Dr. Smith. She works at Florida Central Hospital. I need that information ASAP, and also get me everything you can find about her family."

Mario: "Of course, sir. What is the doctor's name?"

Damn, I don't know that information! So I approach a nurse and say:

Alexander: "Excuse me, I'm looking for Dr. Brenda Smith."

Nurse: "Brenda? You mean Andrea Smith?"

And God, what a beautiful name she has.

Alexander: "Yes, her. Excuse me; I got her name wrong."

Nurse: "Don't worry; she'll be doing her rounds soon."

Alexander: "Thank you very much."

I walk away from the nurse and say to the phone: "Did you hear that, Mario?"

Mario: "Yes, boss. I'll get you the information as soon as possible."

I hang up the call. I'm about to check my emails when I see my future wife coming back, but she looks sad. When she is close, I speak to her.

Alexander: "Are you alright?"

She replies yes, that I shouldn't worry, but I see her eyes, and they're welling up with tears. My blood boils when I see her cheek. They dared to hit her! I try to control myself, so I don't wait any longer and decide to ask about Dante's progress.

Alexander: "I would like to know when you will be discharging my brother."

Andrea: "Who is your brother?"

Alexander: "Dante."

Andrea: "Oh!" (I see her smile, and I like that. I wish I could see her like this always. What the hell am I thinking?)

Alexander: "What's so funny?"

Andrea: "Nothing, nothing. Don't get me wrong. It's just that your brother is a real handful when it comes to injections."

Alexander: "Ha, ha, ha. You noticed?"

Andrea: "Who wouldn't? Just mentioning injections makes him pale."

Alexander: "Ha, ha, ha. Yes, that's very true. You're getting to know my brother." (And my future brother-in-law, I think to myself. I was right about that imbecile after all.)

Andrea: "Well, let's go. Your brother might even rip the IV out himself."

Alexander: "And he wouldn't be far from doing it if he could."

We walk down the hall to Dante's room, and I glance at my future wife. She is very short next to me, but I love everything about her. I want to hold her hand, protect her, and make her completely happy.
