Harry Part 1

After the problems at the inn were over, we went to the hospital in this area. Sean was still not strong enough to ride his motorbike, so we headed to the hospital by hitching a ride with Angie and Leo, who brought their car. At the same time, Sean's motorbike was entrusted to the police. It didn't take long before we arrived at the hospital. Indeed, the distance is not too far from the inn. After the doctor examined us, we had to stay at the hospital for a few days because the condition of our bodies was quite worrying, especially Angie, because there were many knife cuts on her hands. Her fist was injured as a result of hitting the mirror. At Leo's request, Angie was placed in a VIP room that only provided one bed. As for me and Sean, we decided to be treated in a room with two beds. We chose to be treated in the same room. That was Sean's wish; he looked still apprehensive about me, and that's why I didn't reject him at all. And here we are, in the hospital treatment room. The IV line was attached to my hand, and so did Sean's. Leo accompanied Angie into her room. I still feel bad for them both. Even though I was grateful that Angie's womb was delicate, I could see Leo's anger at me. Since leaving the inn, never once did he talk to me. I think it's only natural that he was angry with me because I was the one who caused his wife to get hurt. I even almost harmed their future baby. "Leslie, have you contacted your parents?" Sean's sudden question made me cringe, and even then, I woke up from my reverie. "I already called them earlier, how about you?" "Me too," Sean replied. I looked at Sean's face, lying on another bed. His wound had been treated and covered with bandages. The damage to Sean's face was severe and profound. Even though Sarah scratched his face, I still feel very guilty for Sean. What if the wound left a mark on his handsome face? I definitely won't be able to forgive myself. "Sean, I'm sorry, okay? It's my fault. Your face is hurt," I said with sobs that started to sound. I didn't want to cry because this would only worry Sean more about me. But these tears couldn't be cooperated with. They slid down my face by themselves. "It's not your fault, Leslie. Do not worry about it. After all, it's been treated and it will heal later, "Sean replied, smiling at me. "But what if the wound remains? Your wounds are quite numerous and deep." "Hmm, no problem. As long as you still want to accept me as your boyfriend." He smiled back at me. I'm fortunate to have a boyfriend like him. "Stupid. Of course, I will always accept you, even if you are ugly, no matter how ugly your face is," I replied. "Hm, by the way, Leslie, I've always been curious to ask you this." "Asking what?" I looked at him thoughtfully. Something that he would ask was quite significant. Yes, somehow, I feel that way. "Why do you want to be my girlfriend?" My eyes widened at his question. After dating me for so long, why is he only asking that now? That's the question in my mind. "I-it's because I like you," I answered shortly and honestly. "I mean how come you like me?" Now, I was stunned. I, of course, thought about what answer I should give him. Something that made me like Sean, I don't know, I'm not too sure either. Maybe because he's handsome, but I don't think it's because of that. Even though Sean is not attractive, I'm sure my heart will still be anchored to him. Or maybe because he's cool. I don't think it's because of that either because even though Sean is stupid, I'm sure my heart will always beat irregularly only when I'm around him. I just felt enchanted since my first meeting with him. He is very kind, and his concern and cold demeanor make me feel challenged to be able to conquer him. Even though I never thought he was mean to me, he always tried to approach me since our first meeting. But I remember Angie used to tell me that Sean had never dated any woman, as if he had never been interested in women. At first, I didn't believe it, but I saw it with my eyes. Sean is very popular and has a lot of fans, but he always ignores them. If I remember that, it always makes me want to smile because I'm too happy. "Why are you smiling to yourself? Did you go a little crazy after being possessed by that cursed ghost, Leslie?" Yes, although it's not uncommon for Sean's words to constantly irritate me, like what he just said. I huffed angrily at him, showing I didn't like what he was saying. "Huuh… if I'm crazy, why do you still want to be with me? You're the one who asked us to be treated in the same room? You're so annoying. One more thing... she's not a cursed ghost, she has a name and Sarah. Remember that!" I said curtly. I thought he would reply to my words, but I was wrong when I saw him chuckle. "Hahaha… I'm sorry, I was just kidding. So, where's your answer? Or should I repeat the question?" "Nothing," I answered briefly and as vaguely as possible because the look on Sean's face looked confused at this time. "Huuh… what does that mean?" "There is no reason whatsoever, maybe there are many reasons for humans to hate each other but to love each other I don't think there is a logical reason. I feel comfortable when I'm around you and that's enough to make me sure that my decision to date you is the right decision." Sean widened, looking at me with eyes that were difficult to decipher. Could there be something wrong with what I'm saying? "Thank you, Leslie. I know you are different. Not meaning to show off, but so far many women have expressed their love for me but I refused because I know they like me. After all, for them, I am handsome and cool. Although I have never really felt that way. I have many flaws just so you know. I'm also not very good at getting along with other people. Maybe it's just because I'm the captain of the basketball team that the women idolize me. But I'm happy to hear your answer, that means you want to be my girlfriend not because I'm the captain of the basketball team or popular, right? But you like me just the way I am. I'm not exaggerating thinking like this, am I?" I shook my head in response. His thinking is correct. Even if he is not handsome, not cool, stupid, or ugly to me, he is the only man I love. "I promise I will never leave you, Leslie, you will always be in my heart. You're the only woman I love. Maybe it's too soon to talk about this, but I think we both want to be like Angie and Leo in the future." I was stunned, speechless. Just now... was Sean proposing to me? Or am I overthinking, huh? Our conversation was interrupted when we heard the sound of the door opening. Second later, two people I care about entered our room. They are none other than my parents. Mother came to me and immediately hugged me. "You're all right, Leslie? We left immediately as soon as you called earlier," Mother said while gently stroking my head. "I'm fine, I only have minor injuries. Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow I can get out of here. Did Dad miss work because of me?" I asked my father, who was standing not far from my bed. "Father is unlikely to be able to work after hearing about your circumstances. Oh yes. Sean, what's wrong with your face?" Dad looked worriedly at Sean. Sean has often come to my apartment, and because of that, Sean's relationship with my parents is quite close. They also really liked Sean, of course, that made me very relieved. "Just a small wound, Uncle," Sean answered as friendly as possible. "Hmm, thank goodness. I hope you recover soon. Oh yes. Leslie, earlier I contacted your campus, I have asked permission so you can rest for one week. I've already asked permission for you, Sean. So tell your parents they don't need to contact your college anymore." "Thank you, uncle. Sorry to be a bother." I am pleased to know my parents also care about Sean. "Oh yes. Sean, where's your mother? You've already told her about your situation, right?" This time, it was my mother who spoke. I also wonder why Sean's family has yet to come to visit. "I already told my family, Auntie. Maybe they are still on the way." "Even though my aunt wanted to meet your mother to leave Leslie with her for a while," said the mother, which surprised me instantly. "Leaving me with Sean's mother? Why, Mom?" "Earlier you got a call from your uncle and aunt, they told you that your grandmother was sick and was being treated at the hospital. But mother can't go there after seeing your state." Immediately, I could see the sadness and worry on Mother's face. I was also unfortunate and worried after hearing that my grandmother was sick. "I'm fine, mom. Mother meet grandmother." "But Leslie..." "It's okay, mom. Go with dad. As you can see, I'm fine. Besides, there's Sean, Angie, and Mr. Leo here. Besides that, Sean's family will also be coming soon. Don't waste any more time, hurry up and find grandma, Mom." Mom didn't respond to what I said. She just looked at Dad. Dad nodded his head in support of what I said. Finally, Mom kissed my forehead. "Okay, mom and dad go first, you need to get a lot of rest. Rest in peace here, no need to think about your studies." "Yes, Mom." "Sean, Aunt Leslie entrusted to you. Please take care of her." Mother looked at Sean, and a second later, Sean nodded his head. "Of course. I will always look after Leslie." "Thanks, Sean. Give our greetings to your family too, okay?" "Okay, Auntie, Uncle. Thank you," Sean said with a smile. After that, my parents left the room. About 30 minutes later, a beautiful girl entered our room. She is Sean's younger sister, Sunny Maxwell. Sunny is currently in high school. She has a lovely personality. She seemed cheerful and a little spoiled because she kept hugging Sean, ignoring me, who was staring at them. "Mom is not coming with you?" Sean asked his pretty sister. "Mom is still out of town, bro." "Oh, she's not home yet?" Sunny shook her head in response to Sean's question. Then, suddenly, she walked up to me. "So this is the one named Sis Leslie, my brother's girlfriend?" she asked, which I could only answer with a nod. "Nice to meet you, Sunny. Pleased to meet you." Today was the first time I met Sunny in person. Sean often talked about her, but remembering that he had never even invited me to his house, I never met his younger sibling. However, I remember seeing her from afar when Sean took her to Grandes High School to visit the Bazaar. "Sis Leslie is so beautiful. Aren't you tired of going out with my flat brother?" I just smiled hearing that, especially when Sean immediately scolded his younger sister for making fun of him. Looking at them, I could tell their relationship was very close. I always wanted a younger sibling, but unfortunately, I never had one. I hope that in the future, I can be close to Sunny. I will love Sunny, and I will consider her as my sister.
