CLEO & CASSANO (Love In Hospital)

CHAPTER 38

"Is everything okay?" desmi asked Rakanyang looking limp.

"Huf! He's starting to act again." Raka ruffled her hair.

"What's going on?" ask Desmi again.

"I have to go 3 nights overtime" he raised three fingers.

"Patience! You know how Dr. Casanno is." comfort him.

"I want to split his mouth." Raka made an expression as if she wanted to tear out someone's mouth.

"Why?" Cleo who had just arrived, was confused to see the appearance of Raka who had collapsed.

"Disease! Doctor Raka got a gift from Doctor Cassano, Doc." reports Luna.

"Gift? Meanin?" Raka did not say anything, she was busy checking the patient reports.

"Yes, get an additional night service allowance for 3 days." whispered Luna, as Raka glared at him.

"Couldn't you? Did he punish you for that?" Cleo stood in front of Raka. "Why silence?" tanyakanya.

"Already, Doc. I don't want to have any more problems with him." Raka refused to tell Cleo. Raka walked towards one of the patient rooms.

"Doctor Cassano is like that, Doc. He doesn't like it if we take over his duties without his permission." Desmi explained what she was like.

"But, the situation at that time I knew for myself." sidelines Cleo.

"He won't care, Doc. If he asks us to wait, we must follow his orders." continued Desmi.

"What the fuck? Patient safety is primary. It's her own fault, why it's late." Cleo looks emotional.

"Already! Ignore it, Doc." said Desmi. Cleo was still silent, she did not like Cassano's irresponsible attitude.

"Dok, help my wife!" Cleo turned her head as one of the patient's families called out to her. Cleo immediately ran towards the room.

"Contact, Doctor Casanno." she ordered Luna, after she finished examining her patient. Luna called him immediately. Andrew was resting in his room. He rushed down to the 1st floor.

"Where?" ask so until. Luna gave her sterile gloves, then helped put on protective clothing. Cleo moved from her place to the patient's side.

"The opening is complete" he reported. Andreas turned to him, then refocused on the patient in pain. Andreas asked for scissors, then he cut out the patient's perineum, so that the baby's head could come out more easily. It didn't take long, finally a baby cry was heard in the room. After all was done, Andreas came out and sat down at the nurse station. He began to fill out the status of the patient.

"Doctor, wait!" Cleo prevented him from seeing Andreas leaving. Andreas was wrapped and stared intently at him.

"What's wrong?" tanyakanya.

"We need to talk" he answered.

"What do you want to say?" ask them as soon as they reach the doctor's office.

"You can't punish others for your own mistakes." Andreas looked back at him sharply.

"Who do you mean?" tanyakanya.

"Raka. He didn't do anything wrong. So, you can't just punish him." he asked.

"Then should I punish you?" Cleo fell silent, Andreas approached towards her, Cleo retreated slowly.

"We're not wrong, but you are." Instead of being afraid, Cleo grew bolder.

"Me?" Andrew pointed at himself.

"If you're not late, maybe the baby will be born in your hand" he replied.

"Who's your boss?" tanyakanya. Highlight his eyes as if he wanted to swallow Cleo alive.

"You." she replied.

"Then, why don't you follow your boss' orders?" their distance is so close.

"Because you gave the wrong order." Cleo didn't care even if she was her superior.

"I'm never wrong. You're the one who's not listening." Andreas completely slashed the distance between them. Cleo was no longer able to retreat, as there was only a wall behind her. "So, are you gonna listen to me?" Andrew leaned over and whispered in his ear.

"If your orders are wrong, then I stick to my stance." Cleo pushed him and immediately walked out of the room. Andreas kept staring at him until he disappeared behind the door.

"Based on a stubborn woman." he muttered.

"What the fuck is he?" Cleo held his chest. "He thought everyone would just shut up and follow his will." he grumbled.

🍀🍀🍀

"Doctor Cleo!" Cleo turned her head and saw Vincent was walking towards her. "What are you doing here?" tanyakanya.

"I'm new from Cassano's doctor's office, Doc." Vincent looked up at his son's room.

"So, have you met him?" ask again.

"Yes. And, I'm confused Doc. Are all the doctors here as arrogant and arrogant as he is?" Vincent smiled.

"Did he get you in trouble?"

"Meeting him is the biggest problem of my life, Doc." Cleo looked so upset.

"How about we sit there?" Vincent pointed at the park not far from where they were standing.

"All right!" They walked to the park. Not many people there. Only a few patients or their families were there.

"So, what's wrong with you and that haughty doctor?" Vincent is convinced that he does not yet know that Andreas is his son. Cleo told him what had happened, Vincent listened carefully.

"Did my uncle think I was wrong?" Cleo went back to acting as usual, as there were only the two of them there.

"No. You're not wrong. Doctor Casanno does have a bit of a rough temperament. But, he's actually a good man." he replied.

"I don't believe that." Cleo interrupted. "Then I go back, Uncle." Cleo stands.

"Cleo, wait!" Cleo looked at him.

"What's up, Uncle?"

"Would you come to dinner with me tonight?" tanyakanya.

"We only?"

"No. My family will join." Vincent is waiting for his answer.

"What are you doing here?" Andreas who just opened the door was surprised by Vincent's presence there.

"We need to talk." Vincent just went in. Andreas sat there again.

"What's wrong?" tanyakanya.

"Take your time tonight" he said.

"For?"

"I've invited your future wife to dinner together." Andreas' eyes widened.

"I don't agree yet" he replied.

"I don't accept rejection." he continued.

"Don't force me. I told you I love other women." she said.

"If you don't want to do it for me, then do it for your mama's sake "Andreas fell silent when he heard Vincent mention his mama.

"Did mama agree?" tanyakanya.

"of course. That woman is so nice, your mama likes her so much." she explained.

"I'll think about it." Andreas can't resist if it's the mother's wish. Jasmine, she loves her mother so much. Especially when Jasmine was sick. Jasmine has heart disease, and Andreas will not take the risk of refusing her wish.

"Palapa Hotel at 19:30 wib." before leaving Vincent told the venue where the dinner was held.

🍀🍀🍀

"I'm sorry, Raka. Because of me, you're punished." Cleo met Raka before she came home.

"It's okay. I'm used to it." she replied.

"You sure?" tanyakanya.

"Yes. Never mind, you don't have to feel guilty. I can handle it." Raka convinced.

"Once again, sorry!" cleo. Raka nodded. Cleo picked up tasny and walked out of the doctor's special room. Cleo heard her phone ring. He immediately retrieved the phone stored in his sling bag.

"Hallo!" cleo said as he answered the video call.

"How are you, baby?" ask the voice of the man from across the street.

"Not good." Cleo manyun's.

"That's the face why is a manyun so?" tanyakanya.

"I'm upset again" he replied.

"Why? Is it because I miss you?" ask the man again.

"Yes, I miss you so much." Cleo smiled cheerfully.

"I miss you a lot too" replied the man. "Do you want to go home?" he looked at Cleo standing in front of the elevator.

"Yes. We will continue! Love You!" after hearing the answer from the man, Cleo turned off her phone.

"Do you have no shame? Saying your love in public?" Cleo turned her head back, and saw Andreas was staring intently at her.

"What's wrong with that?" Cleo came in when the door opened. Andreas followed.

"You must be free-thinking. Considering you're from London." so.

"There is no prohibition to express feelings to those we care about" he replied.

"Well, you're right! Not in public either." Andreas is back to teasing him.

"That's up to me. Why are you the one who's making a fuss?" Cleo stared intently at him.

"Well, you're a stubborn woman." Andreas came out as soon as they got to the basement.

"Basic bule pervert!" means slowly.

🍀🍀🍀

"Is he coming?" ask Jasmine to Vincent.

"I'm sure he'll come." she replied.

"I'm afraid he's refusing. I can't bear to see Cleo grieving." Jasmine had met Cleo several times, when Vincent took her to London. He liked Cleo very much. Therefore, he really wished Cleo to be a part of his family.

"You don't have to worry. I'm sure he'll come." Vincent calmed him. "Well, there he comes!" they saw Andreas walking towards their table.

"Sorry, I'm late!" the answer. "Mama how are you?" Andreas hugged her.

"Didn't you have time to visit your mom?" Jasmine hit his arm.

"I'm sorry, Ma! Lately I've been doing a lot of work." Andrew held his mother's hand.

"Some healthy?" tanyakanya.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Then, can we start dinner tonight?" Andreas did not see the presence of the woman of his parents' choice.

"Wait a minute!" Vincent prevented him from seeing Andreas move the dishes they had ordered onto his plate.

"What is your dad waiting for?" he looks pissed.

"Your future wife." Andreas put the spoon and fork out of his hand.

"She's not necessarily my wife." she said.

"I told you she ...."

"Sorry, I'm late!" Andreas turned his head immediately upon recognizing the voice.

"You ...?" said it. Cleo turned her head and she was also surprised.

"You? What are you doing here?" tanyakanya. They both looked towards Vincent.
