THE LOVE OF MY LIFE
78. Temporary residence

"I want to go home" said Nayla.

Nayla insisted on being released from the hospital after visiting Alisha in prison the day before.

Alisha was convicted of a crime she had planned for herself. Those who helped him did not escape punishment.

The surprising thing is, Alisha seems to regret her actions after Kevin says the real thing happened. If you remember he was so eager for revenge.

###The day before.

Rory looks into Nayla's eyes, waiting for what Nayla wants to say to her.

"Are you not ashamed of my relationship, Roy?" ask Nayla.

Rory frowned, then stood up as she folded her hands.

"Is that sarcasm?" asked Rory narrowed her eyes.

Nayla lowered her head. What Alisha said, inevitably disturbs her mind.

'If I reveal who I really am, will people's views change? Will they stop degrading Roy? Did they also stop saying Roy chose _,,,"

"BRAND,,,!!!"

"Auhh,," Nayla complained as Rory touched her forehead and immediately stroked her.

"What the hell?" sulk Nayla pouts.

"Stop thinking weird stuff!" hatch Rory.

Rory knelt down with her hands covered Nayla's face. Staring deeply into his eyes.

"Don't worry about things that haven't happened yet. Someone once told me that he would kick me if I had thoughts like you're thinking right now" Rory said.

"Royy,," lamented Nayla advancing her lips.

"It seems that someone has remembered what he once said to me" Rory said.

"That's different, Roy," Nayla argued.

"What makes it different? In that case, not only applies to me, but also applies to you" replied Rory.

"And one more thing" said Rory quickly before Nayla could answer.

"What,?" ask Nayla.

"Give me your hand" said Rory.

"Why?" asked Nayla frowning.

"Save it out" urged Rory.

Nayla extended her hand with a questioning look on her face. Before long, Rory took something out of her jacket pocket, and immediately wrapped something around Nayla's wrist.

As soon as Rory finished, Nayla widened her eyes to see what was now attached to her wrist. His eyes began to glaze over.

The bracelet, which Nayla thought was missing, is now re-attached to her wrist.

"Roy, this, this, I thought," Nayla clasped the bracelet and began sobbing.

"You lost it?" connect Rory with raised eyebrows.

Nayla nodded slowly. Tears began to roll down his cheeks.

"I fixed the bracelet as much as I could. However, I could not find the same material as the previous one," said Rory.

"I've been looking for him for a few days, but still I didn't find the exact same one with the broken bracelet. So, I can only refine using the materials I get," he added.

Without warning, Nayla drops her body into Rory's arms.

" Hey, hey, hey, Nay,,! You're still hurt," welcome Rory in surprise.

Rory manages to hold off Nayla who nearly falls from a wheelchair with both knees touching the ground.

"Thank you, Thank you, thank you," said Nayla sobbing.

Rory felt her shoulders wet with Nayla's tears. Gently, his hand rubbed the back of Nayla's head, returned his embrace, then smiled.

"I know that bracelet means a lot to you. Whatever the story behind the bracelet, it will still be there even though this bracelet is a little different" said Rory.

Nayla nodded slowly. Carefully, Rory again sat Nayla in the wheelchair. Removing Nayla's tears with her thumb, Kedian smiled.

"Look at you, you're crying like a kid who failed to get ice cream" Rory said.

Nayla just smiled in response to Rory's words.

###Today.

"I want to go home" said Nayla.

"No way," welcome Rory no less firmly.

"I'm bored here, I just sit and lie down without doing anything" Nayla said.

"Your wounds aren't dry yet, what if your wounds are open again?" reply Rory.

"I just need to be careful, and it doesn't always have to be here" Nayla replied.

"Don't be stubborn, the last time you said that, it always ended badly" Rory said.

"Oh, come on, it wasn't on purpose" Nayla said.

"No, you need to stay here,!" firmly Rory.

'Ugh,, I can't. I promised I'd help Antony. And the date is getting closer. If I stay here, I'll have trouble getting out, ' Nayla lamented.

Long before Nayla, her best friend Antony asked for her help. And Nayla has promised to help him.

'I can't just break my promise. I made this promise a long time ago, and planned the perfect date. But if I'm here, I can't reach him. They continue to be here and do not leave me alone, ' whispered his heart.

"In that case, I'll ask Chris to find a nurse for me, so someone will take care of me" Nayla said.

"Sorry, this time I can't obey you" replied Chris.

"Although with the supervision of nurses though, they will not be able to stop the stubborn nature that you have," continued Chris.

"Hey, I'm not that bad" Nayla murmured.

"What's your reason for insisting you go home, Nay? is anyone waiting for you?" sela Kevin's.

"Uhm,, that,, me,,, nothing. I just want to go home" replied Nayla.

"Does anyone live with you?" ask Kevin again.

"Nothing" answered Nayla.

"Then you stay here. At least here someone's looking after you," welcome Kevin.

Nayla is ready to make her argument again, but Kevin stops her first.

"Except, on one condition," said Kevin.

At once those in Nayla's nursery set their sights on Kevin, including Nayla with a questioning look.

"A-A-What,,,???" nayla was surprised.

"Don't joke, though,!" nayla Tuas. "How can I stay with kali_,,,"

"That's a great idea" Chris cut.

"I agree" continued Martin.

"Best choice" said Rory.

"Hey, I haven't even said I agree. I don't want to" Nayla said.

"Then, you stay here," greeted Kevin with a triumphant smile.

"Chris, come on, I can't stay with them, can I?" nayla asked for support.

Chris shrugged, followed by both hands. Surrender.

"I feel like their best decision for now is to remember your condition" Chris replied.

"You say that when you don't know where they live?" welcome Nayla to disbelief.

"I know, because I've been there to check it out" Chris replied casually.

'Sorry Louise, I don't know if this is good for you or not. I know that place has memories between you and Nick. But I want you not to always be tied to your past, Chris' inner self.

"I promise I'll give you full privacy if you want to stay with us" Kevin said.

"But_,,,"

"You can also get the most spacious room if you want it" continued Rory.

"And you're free to do anything as long as it doesn't harm you" Martin said.

"Now you are really compact in persuading Nayla" chirped Ethan who had been silent as he held back a laugh.

'Ish, is there no other way than this? If I'm there, can I sneak out? Or maybe I could just find an excuse to get out?' inner Nayla.

"The decision is in your hands" Thomas smiled warmly.

"Promise I'll have my own privacy?" ask Nayla to make sure.

'I'll think about it later, ' Inner Nayla

"Promise" Kevin said.

"All right" answered Nayla.

Nayla's reply suddenly made them cry out happily. Immediately, Martin contacted someone to prepare the room that Nayla would occupy.

They left the hospital the next day. Irene changed the bandage that was in Nayla's stomach before leaving.

"You're so lucky, Nay," said Irene.

"Lucky about what?" ask Nayla.

"You're going to stay with them, a top singer," Irene said excitedly.

"If you want to change places, I will gladly give it to you," Nayla said with a frown.

"They're so worried, you know?" reply Irene.

"I know" answered Nayla.

"Thank you for a second" Irene asked.

Nayla raised her hand, making it easier for Irene to change the new bandage for her wound.

"It looks like this takes longer to dry, Nay. Try to keep the injured part from hitting anything," said Irene.

"I understand" replied Nayla.

Unbeknownst to Nayla, someone pats Irene on the shoulder and asks her to step down.

Irene gave a small smile and gave a bandage to Rory who quietly entered during the process of Nayla changing the bandage.

Rory took over changing Nayla's bandage in silence. Until when the process of changing the bandage is complete, Rory wrapped his hands on both shoulders of Nayla, to make NAyla surprised.

"Akh, Roy, Roy,,,!!!" pekik Nayla intends to turn around and push Rory.

"Sshh, shut up, don't move much" whispered Rory restraining Nayla's movements.

"What are you doing here?" nayla asked frantically realizing she was wearing only a slightly open top.

"Learn to change the bandage so I can change the new bandage for you" whispered Rory in Nayla's ear.

"What do you mean?" tanya Nayla started blushing.

"What about my work? Didn't I put the bandage neatly?" god Rory.

"J-Don't tell me that's just_,," Nayla gulped her saliva, her face flushed red.

"Yep, I did it," Rory replied casually without taking off her arms.

"Ahh, stay away for a second. Let me put on my clothes" Nayla said nervously.

"Why? This is also good, I still want to be like this, hugging you like this," said Rory.

"Ish, Roy, Roy" Nayla complained.

Nayla could not move too much as her movements were limited and hindered by the pain in her back.

Rory chuckled softly and loosened her embrace. Slowly turn Nayla around and help Nayla put on a loose shirt.

"You look so sweet in oversized clothes like this," seduced Rory.

"Basic pervert," decak Nayla pulls Rory's nose.

"Don't blame me if I can't bear to see you look so beautiful" Rory smiled mischievously.

Nayla smiled as she placed a palm on her face.

"Over the next few days, you will wear more clothes like this because your wounds are not dry yet" Rory said hesitantly.

"It's okay, I get it," Nayla said.

"And one more thing I haven't told you yet" Rory said.

"What?" ask Nayla.

"You're going to Paris tomorrow with us for three days,"

"Oh, all right," answered Nayla.

"..."

"Ehhhh,,, wait, what?????" nayla cried as if she had just woken up
