Debby's pov

I reached for my pocket and search for my phone... thankfully, I saw it in. I fetched it out and check the time.

It's 3:30pm.

I sighed and continue watching the children playing in front of me... their moms and dads jumping around with them.

The air is filled with laughter.. sound of their laughter ring in my ear and a small smile tug my lips.

Currently, I'm at the park, sitting on a bench and watching the kids play.

I wanted to clear my head and this is where I found myself.... a park not far from Anna's apartment.

My phone suddenly rings and disturb my peaceful time.

Checking the caller's ID, it's Andre calling.

"Hello?" I answered in a very down tone.

"Angel, are you home yet?"

I shake my head, then remembered he can't see me.

"No"

"Why? You couldn't get a cab?"

"I...."

A loud thunderstorm cuts me off.. oh no, it can't rain now.

"What's that sound, Angel? Did you bump into something?"

"It's nothing"

I hear him groan frustratingly.

"Angel, you are getting me angry.. bloody tell me where the fuck you are!"

"I'm fine, just stay and accompany Olivia for.... "

"I don't care about her! I can come back to her after dropping you in the mansion!"

I got up as I feel tiny drops of rain fall on me.

"I'll go to Anna's"

"Good, I can drop you there!"

"I've seen a cab, I have to go!" I lied.

"Wait...."

I hang up before he could say another word. Just then, the rain drops become thicker and I made a run for it.

But before I arrived at Anna's, I was already drenched by the rain.

I pressed the doorbell continuously until the door flung open and Anna stood in front of me with an angry voice.

"What the fuck...." She cuts off her words when she saw it's me.

A loud gaps leaves her mouth.

"Jesus! Why are you covered in blood?!"

Her eyes moves to my forehead and a louder gasp leaves her mouth.

"Your head!" She pulls me in quickly. "I was expecting good news, what happened?!"

She helps me sit on a sofa and packs my hair in a ponytail.

"Lucas! Bring the first aid kit!" She yells.

Lucas is here too?

Not up to two minutes, Lucas came with the first aid kit... he drops it and kneels in front of me with his mouth wide open.

"Oh my God! Debby, what happened?!" He asked.

Anna opens the kit and rampages through it... she cuts a large cotton wool and deeps it in a disinfectant.

She touches it gently on my wound and I hissed loudly in pain.

"Sorry, sorry..." She mutters and continue cleaning my wound.

Lucas takes off my wet jacket and damps his on my shoulders. He rushes off towards Anna's room and comes back with her hand dryer.

He starts drying my hair... I guess to prevent me from catching cold.

Anna was quick... soon, she bandages my head and sits next to me.

"Debby, what happened? I thought Andre was supposed to propose?" She asked.

Lucas turns off the dryer and sits on my right.

"Andre proposed?!" He asked in shock.

Anna glares at him.

"That's besides the topic.. Debs, why are you wounded so bad?"

I lean back on the sofa.

"Accident"

"What?!" She and Lucas exclaimed simultaneously.

"Accident?! How come?! What happened?!" Lucas asked anxiously.

I opened my mouth to explain but my vision suddenly starts bluring.

I feel Anna shake me and calling my name.. even Lucas too... But I just couldn't stay awake.. I slip into darkness.

Writer's pov

Anna was frightened seeing her best friend pass out.

She turns to Lucas and asked him in panic.

"What happened? Why did she pass out?"

Lucas didn't reply just opens her eyes and studies them for a few minutes.

"She's fine!"

Anna sighs and looks at the passed out Debby.

"Do you think Andre knows about this?"

"I'm not sure... you know Debby keeps stuffs to herself"

"What should we do then?" Anna asked.

"I'll carry her to her room... You call her boyfriend to come here, he must tell me what happened to my sister!" He said and carried Debby towards her room. I nod and rushed to her room to get her phone.

At the hospital....!

Andre sits on a couch far away from Olivia's bed and crossed his arms across his chest... glaring daggers at her.

If looks could kill, Olivia would be 6ft under... And honestly that's his greatest wish deep down right now.

"Thank you for staying with...."

"Don't thank me, I'm doing it for my Angel" Andre shunned her.

She rolls her eyes and tries to reach for a glass of water on the table.

She grabs it but purposely pours it away and falls the glass, pretending it slipped.

The sound of the glass crashing made Andre's glare intensified.

"Oops!" She exclaims.

Andre pretends like he didn't hear her. She groans loudly and clears her throat to get a reaction from Andre but he didn't react.

He sat there simply, staring at her.

"Andre.. I'm thirsty" she said.

"For blood?" Andre asked.

She frowns a little but shrug it off... she takes it as his normal behavior.

"Water!"

"Oh!" Was Andre's only reply.

He lays on the couch and closes his eyes.

Olivia stares at him with her mouth slightly open.. like she couldn't believe his behavior towards her.

"Aren't you gonna get me some water?"

"There's a glass of water on the table!" He replies, his eyes still shut.

"It slipped off my hand"

Andre sighs.

"Then there's nothing I can do!"

Olivia hissed angrily and threw a pillow at him.

"Why are you being cold towards me? I'm a patient you know?"

This statement provoked Andre, his eyes snap open and he quickly sits up.

"Don't push your luck, Olivia!" He growls. "Don't think I stayed to look after you or because my Angel begged me to stay! I'm here waiting for you to give yourself away!" Olivia frowns in confusion.

"What do you mean?"

Andre gets up and walk towards the window... He moves the blinds and stares out.

"I know what you are trying to do! You want to use this to get close to me and make me accept you back!"

He turns be to her and stares directly in her eyes.

"Stop dreaming! We are over and nothing can bring us back!"

She sneakily pinched herself so hard and tears brimmed in her eyes... she sniffles.

"What are you talking about? You mean I'd do this to myself just to get you back? You mean, I'll purposely cripple myself for you?"

Andre shakes his head and walks back to the couch, he sits down and crosses his legs.

"you're forgetting I know you too well, Olivia. I know you're very scheming and this might be one of your schemes!"

Olivia opens her mouth to defend herself but nothing came out.. she knows Andre is right about this.

She has vowed to do whatever it takes to get Andre back in her life.

"It's a pity that my Angel have a pure heart and can't see through your lies!"

"I didn't lie, I really can't walk!" She said.

Andre smirks.

"Then that must be karma playing with you!"

"You...." She cuts herself off.. she's short of words.

"I just want to know what you told my Angel that made her view of you... what lie could you have possibly tell her?" He said rhetorically.

Olivia smirks.

"My Angel is too kind and softhearted, she'll fall for whatever lie you told her.... I know she wouldn't tell me what you told her, so I'll only wait until you give yourself away!" He walk towards Olivia's legs hanging with casts around them.

He smirks and hits her legs so hard and Olivia releases a loud scream.

"I told you my legs are injured.. why did you do that?!"

"Oops! I just want to know if you are really injured.. seems you are!" His smirks grew.

The door open and Martha walks in with a flask in her hand... she smiles when she sees Andre.

"Andre, you are here!" She said.

Andre ignored her and glare at Olivia one more time before sitting on the couch.

Just then his phone rings.. he reaches for it on the table.

*Anna?* He frowns... he quickly answers it..

"Anna!"

"Mr Knight, can you come over?" She asked in a kinda panicked tone.

Andre gets up abruptly.

"What happened? Is my Angel alright?!"

"She passed out and...."

"I'll be right there!" He hangs up and rushes towards the door.

Olivia turns away from Martha who was giving her a glass of warm water.

"Andre, where are you going?"

Andre ignores her and rushed out... She huffed and angrily pushed the glass of water.

The glass falls to the ground and crash.

"Damn that Debby fucking Ryan!" She growls.

She throws everything within her reach away.

"That bastard daughter of yours is such a pest!"

Martha picks up the things Olivia threw away and put them back in their place.

"But Andre is here with you.. isn't that what you want?"

She snaps her neck towards Martha.

"He is here but his mind is not here! Didn't you see how he ran out as if his pants was on fire when he received that call about Debby?!"

"Don't worry, it's just a matter of time... You've already succeeded in getting him to stay by side..."

"What does that change? He still doesn't give me his attention!"

"Leave him be.. he'll change his view of you soon"

"When will that be?"

Martha sits by her bedside and takes her hands.. she smiled at Olivia.

"I know how to make that happen in two weeks"

Olivia stares at her anxiously.

"Make Debby the bad guy!"

Olivia thinks about it for a brief moment and shakes her head in disagreement.

"No, Andre won't fall for that!"

"He will if he sees Debby doing it!"

"What do you mean?" Olivia asked.

"We need a plan to make Andre see Debby hurting you"

Olivia nods and smiles.

"All you have to do is provoke Debby... you know her too well, just push the right button and she'll react"

They both smirks and nods.
