DREAM OF THE SHADOW

CHAPTER 65

"Who is that, honey?" Shua hears a man screaming while making a video call with Yuna.

"Oh that, cleaning service. He hit the trash. Mas, just stay there. Still empty as well, there was no trash." Yuna explained as she glared at Dylan.

'Damn it, I said cleaning service.' complained Dylan as he walked out.

"I haven't told you that I miss you either." Yuna felt herself start to sleepy again.

"I love you. Rest up. I'll call you tomorrow."

"I love you too, bye dear." They ended the call.

Yuna felt she had to tell Dylan that she was done. Dylan replied that he was buying coffee up front. Yuna felt a little upset and felt guilty. Not Dylan, but Shua. Looks like he's always lying when it comes to Dylan. Why so? He doesn't understand either. He was just afraid that Shua had misunderstood him and Dylan.

'Do I have to stay away from Dylan?' thought. Actually Yuna did not have any feelings for Dylan. He was comfortable and free to talk to the man. Maybe Yuna thought of him as 'sister'? Yes, yes, brother. Dylan's age that was far above him made him feel protected.

Dylan was still upset with Yuna. She is fond of dating Joshua, but she is considered an OB. How can he approach or be recognized by Yuna if it continues this way. Dylan walked into Yuna's room with a sullen face.

"Yuna, as you please..." His grievous feeling disappeared as he looked at Yuna's innocent, sleeping face.

Dylan took the phone from Yuna's hand as slow as possible and placed it on the table. He rubbed Yuna's black hair before Dylan covered her.

Long ago the man looked at Yuna in silence. He thought of the reasons for how he could fall in love with that woman. Her beauty? Maybe it's 80 out of 100. 85 Out of 100. Good nature, funny, adorable, job responsibilities are worth 90 out of 100. Nothing is worth perfect, but the combination of everything makes Yuna a perfect woman in Dylan's eyes. Unfortunately she came late in Yuna's life. But it's okay, but now he's next to Yuna, not Joshua.

The operation lasted for over an hour. Dylan was happy that everything went well. Fortunately, Yuna's appendix has not been infected or ruptured. Now Dylan was in the room with Yuna who was unconscious. He still looks pale. Dylan rubbed Yuna's cold hands with eucalyptus oil. Yuna's phone shook for the umpteenth time. Dylan's hand was actually very itchy to answer the call from Joshua written with "My Shua. But he let it go again. Five missed calls.

'Okay, he called again, I'll answer. But what am I going to say?' thought.

Before he could find the answer, "My Shua" called again.

"Hello?" call Shua.

"Hello, sorry. Yuna's phone was left in the hospital. I'll bring it in a minute."

"Oh, so. Sorry bothering you. By the way what's your name?"

"Dylan, my name is Dylan. Please don't misunderstand me, Joshua. I know you're Yuna's lover."

"No.no...I believe in Yuna. And actually I'm his fiancee." he failed. 'But I don't believe you.' he continued inwardly.

"Is Yuna okay?" ask Shua.

"Yes. It seems like he has improved." replied Dylan as he glanced towards Yuna who was slightly moving.

"All right, Mr. Joshua. I have a little business, I will convey to Yuna to contact you immediately."

"Ok, thank you Mr. Dylan. Again sorry to bother you."

Dylan walked over to Yuna who had just opened her eyes.

"Yuna's? Are you awake?" tanyanya while holding Yuna's hand.

"Want a drink?" tanyakanya. Yuna nodded slowly. Dylan gave her warm water using a spoon. The nurse told her to drink only two spoons. It is likely that Yuna will feel nauseous when conscious because of the effects of drugs and gas inserted into her stomach during surgery.

"Hows it? It hurt?" ask Dylan.

"No." replied Yuna quietly. He did not feel any pain. It may be due to the effects of painkillers that are still working. But Yuna only felt aching from continuing to lie down and was a little nauseous.

"Dylan, I'd like to..uweeeekkkk....." Her nausea is not restrained. He closed his mouth when he felt that there was mucus flowing from his mouth. Dylan swiftly took out a few pieces of tissue and gave them to Yuna.

"I'll take a crackle soon." Dylan took out the biscuit he bought and put on the crackle if Yuna wanted to vomit again.

"Weeekkk...." Once again Yuna vomited. Just a little liquid because there was no food on her empty stomach. He stuffed the old tissue into the white bag. Dylan helped wipe his hands and face with a wet tissue.

"Let me just." Yuna couldn't help but let Dylan clean up his vomit marks.

"No. Your hands are so infused. Let me clean it up."

"Bookie's got. Can you please call the nurse?" Yuna couldn't possibly let Dylan change his clothes.

Now Dylan was feeding Yuna. Just some bribe because he has no appetite.

"I have to call Shua" she said.

"Now? What if he asks for a video call? I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you your phone was left behind in the hospital. Maybe he thinks you're home now."

"It's okay. I can go to bed and let him not look behind me. Dylan, can you get me some lipgloss in the drawer, please?" Yuna applied a little lip moisturizer so as not to look a little pale.

"You're home, honey? Still sore?" ask Shua. Her voice rang throughout the room as Yuna turned on her speakers. Dylan exited the room wanting to give Yuna some privacy and not wanting to hear the "Darling" drama.

"Yes, sorry I just called you. I've been feeling very sleepy all day, maybe the effect of the drug." Yuna felt annoyed at continuing to lie with Shua. He promised to explain the truth if they met again.

"It's okay."

"What are you doing now?" ask Yuna.

"In the room alone while trying to move my legs. Mama was accompanying Vanya in her room. Lately he has had frequent contractions" he said.

"Is she going to give birth?" Yuna sounded a little excited at the thought of a little baby coming.

"Looks not yet. It's normally another month and a half, but we don't know God's plan either. Hopefully everything will be good. Did Dylan drive your phone home?" Deg. Yuna was a little surprised by the question that would make her lie again.

"Yes. Do you know his name?"

"He told me earlier. I want to meet him one day. It's a little strange you're suddenly close to a man."

"Don't think no. Of course I'll introduce you later." he promised. Actually Yuna was a little lazy to introduce them, but it had to be done to dispel Shua's suspicions to her.

Shua closed the call for 42 minutes. He wanted to make a video call, but Yuna said the camera was in trouble. He looked at his feet that could be moved. It's just that there's still less energy to stand up and walk. It was the surprise he had actually prepared for Yuna. Yuna is right, she shouldn't be jealous like the high school kids who are dating. Shua promises to be more diligent in training and prepares an even bigger surprise for Yuna.
