Blessing Or Enmity

26.

A few days later, Lia was already free to move in her own house. He wrote to tell his brother. The brother also asked to be reunited with the doctor he had met before, who else if not the Son Doctor. He said he wanted to say thank you for helping his sister a lot when she couldn't be a reliable sister. Lia agreed.

Evening came, Doctor Putra pressed the bell on the doorstep of Lia's house. She was quite surprised that it was not her patient who opened the door, but instead the brother who shared time with Lia. Though he came past seven o'clock, had his patient fallen asleep too early. "Come in!" said Anthony. "Don't forget to close and lock the door!" continue the man.

The two sat face to face on a single sofa, Anthony looking closely at his sister's doctor. "Ekhem, I heard you wanted to meet me, what's wrong?" The son cleared his throat starting the conversation, he was awkwardly noticed like earlier.

"I heard from my sister, you were very helpful. So I want to thank you, but there is one thing I have to make sure of. So let me ask you, even if it might be a little impolite." The son nodded allowing Anthony to ask him.

"I thank you for helping my sister in so many ways, but I kindly ask if you have a purpose? Kindness without reward is very rare now, so I apologize for doubting you!" anthony is formal.

The son did not feel offended at all, he even understood the concern of his patient's brother. "You can say that this is my responsibility to my patients. As a doctor I want to see my patients are fine and always healthy, I will also do whatever is needed to make that happen," I'm an honest doctor.

"Including lying to multiple parties if you're in a relationship?" she recalled the time her sister said that their annoying aunt stopped by and asked her sister for money, even he also knew that the menor woman was also the culprit of rumors that troubled the sister lately.

"I don't mind" said Putra lightly, the young doctor shrugging his shoulders. "I don't have anything to do with anyone, so there's no way to know if I'm on a show when I say that Lia and I are dating" she explained.

Anthony was massaging his temple, he was digesting the words he had just heard. Shocked, for sure. He didn't know his brother would be that brave. "So you don't have feelings for my sister?" asked the young man with a piercing look.

The Doctor nodded slowly. "For the moment no, but I can't guarantee what the future holds. A person's heart can change over time, right?"

"Don't hurt my sister, I can't be by her side and comfort her when she's sad. So, when you see that my sister's serious. But you don't have the same feeling. Please, stay away from my sister. Disappear and never show up again so my sister doesn't get too hurt!"

"I will do as you wish!"

"And one more thing, let this talk be a secret between us. Don't tell Lia anything?!" anthony Pinta.

The Doctor nodded quickly. "Sure!" the promise. The two talked for a while before the young doctor came home. Anthony sat in the middle of the darkness, thinking hard how to protect his sister. "It's complicated since I'm just a parasite that wakes up when my sister is asleep, I won't be able to provide help when needed!" sigh the young man with a gloomy face.
