CLEO & CASSANO (Love In Hospital)

CHAPTER 17

"What did you say?" Sandra emotion.

"Everyone knows that you and Cleo fight a lot." Nayla just kept pinning him down.

"So your mouth! Obviously I found Cleo." Sandra defended herself.

"It could be just your excuse. After you push it, you pretend to ask for help so you don't get caught" she said.

"Lo, yeah!" Sandra was emotional and pushed Nayla's body.

"Stop!" yell Kemal. He and Kiano tried to stop them.

"Mother can see it? This is what he was originally. He's always been rude and bully the weak." Nayla returns to corner Sandra.

"Shut your mouth!" Sandra shouted back. Sandra's voice made some of the students outside eavesdrop on their conversation.

"Enough, stop!" mr. Kemal was being strict with them.

"Kiano, do you know anything?" ask him to Kiano who has been silent since.

"I don't know, sir. When I got off, Cleo was with Sandra" she replied.

"But, right! It's not me who's doing it. You can ask Leony and Stela." Sandra defended herself again.

"They're your friends, they'll defend you." - Nayla.

"Lo, can you just shut up?" Sandra pointed her foot at Nayla.

"Sandra, Enough!" mr. Kemal stopped him. "I know you've graduated. But, what befell Cleo was no small matter. And, Cleo's parents asked the school to investigate this." Nayla was surprised to hear Kemal's explanation.

"Why didn't you ask Cleo? I'm sure he knows better who did that to him." Sandra stared intently at Nayla.

"I'll definitely do that. So, until this is over you have to stay in school. If you don't follow my words don't expect you to get a diploma." After threatening you like that, Kemal told them to come out.

"So, you pushed Cleo?" some students directly accused Sandra.

"What do you mean?" Sandra looks angry.

"We heard everything. Didn't know you could have done that to Cleo." said the other.

"Biasalah, who owns her school. So, he is free to do anything. Even hurt my own friends. You guys don't look for trouble with him." said the others. Sandra looked back at Nayla. It was very desirable for him to tear his mouth.

"Sandra!! San!!" kiano shouted as he saw Sandra running away from them. Kiano's after Sandra.

"Campus, lo! How does it feel to be bullied in one school." Nayla smiled faintly.

"Sandra, wait!" Kiano stopped it.

"Gue doesn't do anything." Sandra crying. "Gue really didn't push Cleo." Cleo sobbing.

"Have, you don't have to ignore their words. I'm sure Cleo will explain everything." Kaino.

"Where is the condition?" Adam came when it was night.

"Miss just went to sleep, sir. Since then, mulu mulu" he replied.

"I have a job I can't leave, Bi." Adam opened his coat and walked over to Cleo. He stroked Cleo's head gently. "What did the doctor say?" tanyakanya.

"Tomorrow, the lady can go home. Control's three more days." Adam nodded at his explanation.

"Have you had dinner?" ask bi Ita.

"It." Adam walked into the bathroom. About half an hour Adam came out with a fresh-looking face.

"It's me making tea, sir." bi Ita put it on the table.

"Bi, do you know Cleo's friend Nayla?" adam asked before bi Ita returned to the sofa that was near Cleo.

"Know, Sir. She's her best friend, miss." she replied.

"What's he like?" ask Adam.

"From what I know, he's a quiet kid. Miss is very attentive and kind to him. Because he used to be bullied at school." he explained. "Why, Sir?" ask bi Ita when she sees Adam speechless.

"Oh, no! I was just wondering who Cleo's close friends were." she replied. You can rest." bi Ita passed from there. He lay on the bed that was near Cleo's bed.

Adam looked at his daughter lying on the bed. Her feelings flogged, she was worried that if she no longer existed, what her daughter's fate would be.

🍀🍀🍀

"Everything?" Adam helps Cleo in a wheelchair.

"Already, sir." replied bi Ita.

"Then, Come on!" Adam walks out, the nurse in charge of pushing Cleo's wheelchair.

"Will you go home?" a doctor with a bule face groped them.

"Yes" replied Adam.

"How are you doing, son?" tanyakanya.

"Well, Doc." said Cleo quietly.

"Thank God! Take good care of yourself. You don't know how worried your father is." Cleo looked at Adam.

"You go to the car first" he said.

"I'm sorry, Doc." Cleo told Vincent.

"He's very sweet." Vincent was still staring at Cleo.

"After this it's your turn to look after her." Vincent stared at.

"I'll go home first!" Vincent looked on his best friend.

"What are you looking at?" He was shocked because Andreas was suddenly beside him.

"I'm looking into your future" he replied.

"I mean papa?" Vincent did not reply, he passed away leaving Andreas in confusion.

As with previous agreements, Sandra still entered the school even though many students did not come. They spend more time at home or on vacation while waiting for their diploma to come out.

"Look at that he's coming!" whispered some students he didn't know. Maybe they are his class.

"Fortunately he's not here any minute. If there could be a nest of these school criminals." said the others. Sandra's face turned red, her ears were hot to hear their words.

"Dad, why was Cleo asked to come to school? Isn't Cleo graduated?" ask them as they are on their way to school.

"There are some things you need to get straight" he replied.

"Regard what?"

"The accident that happened to you." Cleo's surprised.

"But I told you I slipped" he replied.

"Dad knows you're lying." Cleo grew even more shocked, she did not expect Adam to know about it.

"But...?"

"Dad doesn't like you covering up something wrong for any reason." Adam exited after Karyo parked his car in the school parking area.

"No need, sir. I can do it myself." Cleo refused Karyo's help. He walked slowly as his legs were still using casts. It took them 15 minutes to reach the principal's room.

"How are you?" ask Mr. Hendra, the principal.

"It's better, sir" he replied.

"Look, your papa asked us to investigate the accident that happened to you. Can you tell me what really happened?" Cleo was silent, she looked at Adam. Cleo believes that if Adam knew the truth, Adam would have Nayla imprisoned. Cleo didn't want that to happen.

"I slipped, Sir. Yesterday, I was in a hurry so I forgot that I was on the ladder again." he replied, Cleo lowered her head as Adam stared intently at her.

"Are you sure?" ask Hendra.

"Yes, Sir!" Cleo did not dare to look Adam in the eye.

"How, Master?" mr. Hendra asked Adam for a response.

"Can you wait outside?" pinta Adam, Cleo nodded. Mr. Kemal helped him stand up. He walked slowly to the park. Some of the students who passed by him asked about his condition.

"Where's your condition?" askthem.

"You're better" he said.

"We didn't expect Sandra to do such a cruel thing to you. Defying his love in refusing he vented it on you." said another.

"What do you mean?" Cleo did not understand what they were saying.

"We already know everything. Sandra pushed you because she was jealous to see Kiano declare love to you, right?" askthem.

"He was bad. The son of the chairman of the foundation likes to be arbitrary to other students. Rasain him, Kiano refused. We're sure he must be scared right now because his crime is exposed." They keep saying bad things about Sandra.

"Who said that to you?" ask Cleo.

"Naila! We heard it when Nayla told him in Mr. Kemal's room." replied one of them.

"Nortage?" Cleo was shocked when she saw Sandra there hearing their rant. Sandra ran towards the park.

"Sandra, wait!!" limped and laboriously, Cleo chased after Sandra who ran into the park. "Where is he?" Cleo circulated her gaze looking for Sandra's whereabouts. But instead, he saw Nayla sitting on the grass. Cleo approached him.

"Naila!!" call him. Nayla was shocked and immediately stood up. He's getting ready to go from there. "Wait, Nay!!" he shouted, Nayla stopped her steps.

"What's wrong?" ask without guilt.

"Didn't you want to say something?" ask Cleo.

"Whatchu mean? I don't understand." he said.

"What happened to you? Why do you blame others for what you do?" Cleo emotions saw his guiltless attitude.

"I didn't do anything." He kept on saying it.

"I've thought of you as a friend for a long time, but why would you do this to me?" ask Cleo.

"What kind of friend corners his own best friend from behind?" Nayla is being cynical.

"I've never cornered you." Cleo replied.

"But you're trying to take Kiano away from me." he shouted.

"I never took it from you." Cleo tried to explain to him.

"You lied! I saw clearly how you received the bracelet. Do you know what? I chose that bracelet. The bracelet should be mine." he said.

"Is that why you pushed me?" Cleo stared intently at him.

"I hate you!!" Nayla pushed Cleo back. The stick that was supporting him fell down, Cleo staggered back.

"Cleeoo!!" adam shouted from a distance.

"Lo, is it okay?" thankfully Sandra caught it quickly. The shocked Nayla immediately ran away from the park.
