ARIS's POV
I rush to the room where Ella is confined.
And as I entered, I saw Ellie tapping her head with a damp face towel.
"Aris, you're home?"
"Why? Why you didn't call to inform me?"
"I am sorry, I opted not to burden you,"
"Burden? When? Do you hear what you say?"
"I am sorry..."
"Please, next time inform me immediately,"
"Okay, I am sorry,"
"I don't get angry with you, but I am hurt... You're in trouble but you never informed me... "
Ellie is silent.
"Okay, forget it....how's Ella?"
"Her temperature now subsides,"
"Good,"
"Where's Arra?"
"You see, you can't no longer see a person in anger,"
"No, I am not angry...I am worried and hurt..."
"Okay,"
"Ahhh...." I saw Arra sleeping on the couch
That's when I remember kissing Ellie, then Ella and Arra.
"Sorry, I forgot to ask how are you?" I said and hugged Ellie
"No problem, I am fine...the great Doctor Ariston del Fierro got panic for a fever,"
"If it concerns you and the kids I will panic,"
"You forget I am a nurse,"
"In too much worry,"
"Do you think if it's life-threatening I won't inform you?"
"I got too worried,"
"Ella's condition is within my capacity. So I didn't burden you...and we are now in your hospital...but I will call you after I finish damping cool cloth on her forehead,"
"Sorry...My hospital?"
"Don't... I appreciate that you care so much... And yeah this your hospital, who else?"
"Of course, I do care... But the hospital is not mine, it's ours,"
Ellie looked at me with puzzled eyes.
"Dinner? You? Kids?" I asked
"Arra and Ella done... I, not yet,"
"Yeah, deliver here to room 131 dinner for two... Clubhouse for two" I called a restaurant and ordered dinner for the two of us and snacks for Ella and Arra,"
As Ellie was seated, that's the time I come back to myself
"Is Ella fine now??"
"She recovers fast,"
"How's your convention?"
"I will still be the standard bearer for Governor,"
"You accepted the offer?"
"Not yet, I need your comment on the matter,"
"What?"
"And why not?"
