Episode 14

"Umm... where am I?" Ran quietly ask as she looking around while clenched onto her head.

"Oh you're awake?" Liam ask. He's there just only one minute after Daniel left.

"Ah.. brother, why am I here?" Ran asks.

"You are in hospital." Liam helps Ran to sit up.

"Are you okay, by the way?" Liam asks.

"I'm fine. Just a little headache. Anyway, who bring me here? You?" Ran feels lucky that nothing worse happened to her. The last things she remember is waiting for her bestie in front of the restaurant and someone suddenly grab her and cover her nose.

"Could it be HIM? or HER? " Liam asks himself.

He knows there will only be two people that dislike Ran to the bone. He was blaming himself for not be aware of people around him or her. His poor sister suffered for a heartbreak and a trauma. He couldn't help but feeling like everyone around them are dangerous.

"It's not me that bring you here. Just someone I don't know. He said his name is Daniel." Liam said.

"Daniel? Could it be that Daniel?" Ran thoughts.

"I see. Is he still here? I want to thank him for bringing me here." Ran look at her brother's face for an answer.

"No, he left just one minute before you wake up. If you want to thank him here is his phone number." Liam give Ran a slip of paper that has Daniel's phone number in it.

"Thanks. Can we go now?" Ran asks. She doesn't like the smell of hospital and she felt suffocating.

"If you are fine, yes, we can go." Liam said

"I will wait for you outside. Come out when you're ready." He said and leave the room to Ran so that she can adjust herself to come out.

"Okay, let's go." Ran said as she comes out of the room.

They both walk out of the hospital and get in the car. A few minutes after the car ride, they arrive in front of their home.

"Why did you bring me here?" Ran asks. She hasn't been home for about a week and she's nervous to see her parents. Especially her mom.

"Mom wants to see you so I bring you here." Liam said and walk inside.

"Aish! That dang Liam. Why did he bring me here?" Ran curses underneath.

"My baby!" Her mom come running and hug her.

"I was so worried when I hear what happened to you."Ran glance at her brother who tried to avoid her gaze.

"You told her?" Ran asks. She doesn't want to worried her mother with anything and yet he told her about what happened.

"Sorry Ran. I know well enough that you don't want to worry mom but she needs to know too" Liam apologize.

"I might not be able to help at times but I am here for you, Ran." Her mother said with a sad smile.

"Something happened to you again and again that's why I push you to marriage. If you're married to him, he can protect you." Here goes again with that topic.

"I know, mom. I will get married to him but just...not now." Ran said.

"Do you think I don't know what you're up to lately? You can't fool me, Ran." Ran eyes's wide when she hears what her mother just say.

"How—how did you know?" Ran shutter as she asks her mom.

"I have my way." Her mother said.

Ran feels defeat. She should know damm well that her mother can do anything. She has forgotten that her mom capable of anything, that’s all. And now she comes to remember

“I should have know better.” Ran quietly said.
