Make Me Yours

Chapter 30

Seanne's POV

"Thank you for agreeing to this, Seannie," Mngr. Ysidro tapped my shoulder with a smile.

I smiled at him too, as the door opened and Ms. Lala came in with a basket of fruits.

She sat on the chair beside the bed, "Seanne, how are you feeling?"

"I'm okay," I said and glanced at Mngr. Ysidro.

"Lala, let her rest. We should also come back to the company," he looked at me again, "Thank you again, Seanne."

"No problem, manager," I said and waved at Ms. Lala.

When they left, I reached for the basket and took one orange. Ms. Lala even bought this for me. I kind of feel bad that I had to lie to her when her gesture is so sincere.

This lunch time, I received a text from Mngr. Ysidro asking me to come to the university hospital. I thought something happened to Kookie but when I arrived, he asked me a favor.

That I should stay here for at least a day so there will be a valid reason why Kookie was spotted here at the hospital last night and this morning.

"How much would a one-day stay here cost?" I muttered looked around the VIP hospital room. There's flat screen TV, a small fridge, and it's fully air conditioned.

My phone vibrated, and it's Kookie calling me.

"Hello," he sounded anxious.

"Hey, you alright?" I asked and put the apple down.

"I'm really sorry about this Seanne," he said. I haven't seen him when I came here. Mngr. Sid told me that he went to the company right after the article about him was released. "I was supposed to spend today with you, but this happened."

"It's alright, not your fault." I lay down the bed, "How about Yerin? Is she okay now?"

It took him a few seconds before answering. "Yeah, she is... Uhm, Seanne?"

"Yes?"

"About that... I'm sorry if I didn't tell you I stayed with Yerin."

I heaved a deep breath. "No problem about it."

"But still... it's my fault why you're forced to spend the day in the hospital... and I can't even go with you."

"I'm really fine with it, Kookie. How about you, are you okay? Has the article affected you or something?"

"No, I'm alright. The new article covered what happened."

"That's good to hear. Uhm, where are you now? Still in the company?"

"Nope, I'm home."

"Oh, good to hear. Mngr. Sid said that you were at the company, at least they let you go back to your apartment."

"No, Seanne. I meant, I'm here in my house... my family's house."

"Really?"

I heard someone called him.

"Seanne, I got to go. I'll call you later. I miss you. Bye."

"Bye." I ended the call, just as another one came.

Julia.

"Hey, Jul-"

"SEANNE! WHAT HAPPENED!?"

I averted the phone at an arm's length from my ear. "Hey, why are you shouting?!"

"We heard the news! You were at the hospital? How come? We were together just this morning, what happened? Are you okay?"

"Wait, wait, can you calm down?" I stifled a laugh, "I'm fine. It's a long story, but I'm fine and I am not in an accident or what."
