The Remnants of Our Love | LingOrm (LadaEarn)

Chapter 3

Earn woke up feeling happy for the first time in a year. Her Doctor was available and she was going to claim back her heart. Even if that meant she had to use their marriage as a leverage.

P'Susie walks in and notices Earn's unusual behaviour.

"Why are you so happy today? You're ready before I even got here." P'Susie questioned her artist.

"It's a big deal for me. I should not make them disappointed for hiring me to be their presenter." Earn replied.

They arrive at the hospital getting ready to shoot the advertisement. Dr. Fahlada was nowhere to be seen, but it made sense because she had a lot of patients for the short period that she had been back.

"N'Earn. Dr. Fahlada is here. You should go greet her."

Although nervous, she steps forward to greet the doctor. "P'Mor." The words shock Fahlada as she recognises the voice of her ex lover. "How have you been? I miss you."

Fahlada ignores her and asks P'Susie, "is this the presenter? If she is, I won't be working on this unless you replace her." She then left without saying anything or even glancing at the actress.

——

"Fahlada. Why are you acting like this?" Dr. Phuthares asked his daughter.

"Like I said. I'm not going to be part of the advertisement if she is still the presenter."

"But you're being unreasonable. Earn Sanithada is the rising star and there is no reason for why we shouldn't have her as the presenter. Unless there's something you want to tell me."

So she changed her name? She thought to herself.

"I just can't. I am not ready to tell you why, but it just can't be with her." She replied to her dad. "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave. I have an appointment soon."

Outside of Dr. Phuthares' office stood one of Fahlada's best friends, Dr. Premsinee. As soon as she heard of what had happened from Nurse Ros, she immediately waited for Fahlada. She walked to her office, not saying a word so that she could calm down a bit. However, the waiting extended to when they were already inside her office.

"So..." Prem decided to break the silence. "What was that at the promotional shoot earlier?"

"Nothing. I just didn't like the presenter..." Fahlada answered without giving away too much.

"What do you not like about Earn Sanithada? She's pretty and her personality is the best out of all of the rising actresses." Tan and Prem were fans of the actress, which was why she was confused as to why her friend was acting the way she did. "Meung. It's so weird of you to act this way." Prem added.

"Unless N'Earn Sanithada is the Earn that you used to date?" Prem finally figured. "Why don't you tell us though. E Tan and I have been talking about her nonstop since you came back."

"That's because I did not know they were the same people. She changed her first name from Kanlaya to Sanithada. How was I supposed to know that this idol of Prem's is the same person that fuelled my misery."
