    For the next few days, Aunt Mel would Invite me to have meals with Felix after 1 had my 17 drip


    treatment. In her words, we both grew up under her watch, so I was like a daughter to her. Putting us in


    one ward made it easier to take care of us.


    I didn’t want to visit them regrly or spend time with them for too long. It felt award to spend my entire


    day with them. I tried to turn Melinda down many times, but it never worked because she told me that


    Felix couldn’t move and was very lonely. She wanted me to keep himpany.


    Now that was an excuse I couldn’t reject.


    Felix saved me. By right, I should keep himpany.


    Nevertheless, Colin was there too. My days in the hospital were quite dull. And my wounds hurt from


    time to time. Seeing Colin made me feel better.


    Felix was over the moon these days. He could finish two bowls of chicken noodle soup every meal.


    While he still couldn’t move, he was always smiling. Even the doctor said he was making good


    progress.


    He didn’t speak a lot. Most of the time, he was asleep. But when he was awake, he would be smiling.


    He was handsome and had wless skin. When he slept, he had a gentle smile on his face, like the


    male version of sleeping beauty. It made everyone want to dote on him.


    After spending nine days in the hospital, the doctors said that I could rest at home.


    I was liberated! Helen was thrilled to wee me back to the dorm. She made a special asion out


    of it as if I had just returned from a war.


    When Colin drove me home, he gave me a heap of reminders before he repeated the same thing to


    Helen. He only let us go once I recited the whole thing again to him.


    Inside the apartment, there were a lot of flowers–roses, daisies, and baby’s breath–on my study desk.


    They were pretty and fragrant.


    As expected, Matthew was waiting for me in my dorm. He was making my bed.


    I blushed seeing him tten every crease on my bed with a serious expression.


    For the first time in my life, a man was making my bed.


    I patted my chest, relieved that Colin didn’te up. Otherwise, he would be green with


    1/2


    jealousy.


    Matthew only left reluctantly after I insisted many times.


    And as he left. Helen’s soul left too. She sat on her bed like a soulless puppet after Matthew left the


    apartment. Her head was lowered, and she was motionless.


    The excitement with which she greeted me earlier on was nowhere to be found.


    understood why Helen became dejected all of a sudden. But not wanting to address the elephant in the


    room, 1 busied myself with trivial matters as I tried to ignore her.


    Even though Helen was giving me the silent treatment, her long face which showed that she was on


    the verge of crying made me feel bad.


    I didn’t want Matthew to be there either. But it wasn’t like I could stop him. I wanted to cheer Helen up,


    but I didn’t know how to.


    “Helen, perhaps I can move to another apartment?” It was the only solution that came to my mind.


    “Why?” she asked while sniffling.


    “I don’t want to make you sad every day. Perhaps if I live somewhere else and stop seeing him, you’ll


    feel better?”


    Helen peered at me as if I were an idiot. “Did you see Matthew often before you came to Jesselton


    College? Did that make him forget about you? You live rent–free in his mind. It doesn’t matter where


    you are.


    “Just stay here. I’ve already lost Matthew. I don’t want to lose a good friend as well.”
