Tales Of Love

Eli looked at his father and saw him staring at him with a killing intent. No one seemed to welcome him. When he looked at his mother, her eyes had turned red. She’s been sobbing.

The light in the theater Suddenly went off, and all attention was focused on the door of the theater. Eli had been ignored while they waited for Mile and others to come out.

Soon Mile and three other surgeons came out putting on theater clothes. When Mile saw the whole of his family all looking worried, especially Aurora, whose eyes had become red and swollen.

Removing his face mask, Mile told them the update “The surgery had been done and the bullets have been removed. But Santiago had fallen into a coma”. Mile said and his eyes looked past the people in front of him to a certain scoundrel standing a few meters away.

“Coma? Will he be fine?” Aurora inquired, holding her grandmother tightly.

“I cannot ascertain that Aurora. Santiago’s chance of survival is only 50%. But you have to be strong for him” Mile declared and walked past them going into his office.

He was only carrying out his job as a doctor, but Santiago’s condition really frightened him. Santiago had become like a brother to him and seeing him in his present condition makes him feel bad and to know he was in that condition because his own brother Eli shot him is really pathetic.

Soon Santiago was wheeled out on a stretcher with an oxygen mask placed over his nostril. He looked pale. Aurora rushed forward to hold him but was held behind by her aunt Nancy.

Aurora was struggling, she wanted to go to Santiago. She started sobbing as she saw him wheeled away. The sight of Santiago weakens every one of them present as they all start snuffling except for the solemn standing Luke Rowan.

Eli couldn’t bear it anymore, he turned and went away. He couldn’t bear to see his family like this. He’s the reason why Santiago was like this. If Santiago hadn’t blocked Aurora with his body, Aurora would have been the one in this condition.

The nurse came and told the Rowan’s that the patient was in the intensive care unit. They all filed after each other and stood outside staring at Santiago from the transparent partition.

He looked pale and was placed on life Support. Different tubes and pipes were attached to him. When Aurora saw him, fresh tears flowed down her cheeks.

That night, Aurora refused to go home despite her grandparent’s pleas. Instead of leaving Aurora to be alone, they all spent the night in the hospital.

When they woke up the next morning, Lisa was nowhere to be found. Aurora’s grandparents and aunt Nancy returned home. Mile went to check on Santiago and instructed the nurse what to do and administer.

Aurora sat by his bedside, his breathing was low and he looked pale and thin. Mia went to get them breakfast, but Aurora couldn’t eat.

As the Rowans’ grandparents arrived at their gate, they met Santiago’s assistant leaning on his car. The chauffeur stopped at Luke’s instruction.

Jasper Milo came over and greeted the couple. He told them that Santiago had come to Rowan’s mansion and since then had refused to answer his phone. He tried reaching Mrs. Aurora but she also wasn’t answering her phone.

He checked on them in the villa and was told they hadn’t been home. First thing in the morning, he drove down but was prevented from entering. He had no option left than to wait at the gate for whoever comes in or goes out.

When Luke Rowan heard Jasper Milo, he didn’t know how to tell him that Santiago was in the hospital. With a smile, he said he would tell Aurora to call him.

Jasper Milo bowed and took his leave. Luke Rowan then called his daughter Mia and told her that Santiago’s assistant Jasper Milo wants to speak with Aurora. But instructed that Aurora should make a discrete excuse to hide Santiago’s present condition.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

When Mia ended the call with her father, she told Aurora what her father said. That was when Aurora realized that her cell phone had not been with her since the previous evening.

What about Santiago’s phone, it should be in his pants pocket, but then he was not dressed in a suit anymore but in a hospital robe. Mia remembered and told Aurora that the clothes removed from Santiago are in the car trunk. Aurora went to check, and there was Santiago’s cellphone.

Quickly she unlocked it. Santiago’s password was known by him and her alone. When she unlocked it, she saw several missed calls mostly from his grandfather and mother. Jasper Milo also had left a good number of missed calls.

Aurora felt a little uneasy. Why are there so many missed calls from his family? Has anything gone wrong? She stilled her heart and called Jasper Milo.

As soon as the call went through, Jasper Milo answered his cellphone “Hello boss Axel” and waited for Santiago to answer. But the voice he heard was Aurora’s “Hello Jasper Milo”.

Surprised, Jasper Milo asked where President Santiago is? It is important that he calls his grandfather.

But rather than answer Jasper Milo’s question, Aurora told him to meet her at the Rowans’s medical Center.
