ELLA AND MICHAEL
Also When Your Brother Hits You!
“Also when your brother hit you in my yard, he first moved. You just held him and kept getting beaten. How do you do that?”
“If I hold back, nothing bad will happen. If I followed my emotions, without thinking about the consequences, we would not be able to live as we are now.”
“Self-restraint is the only way to protect Marco.”
Ella smiled when she heard Michael's reply and,
“It is fitting that we are destined to meet and be together. You're a showman of restraint, and I'm good at destroying. Safety levers and grenades. We are one pair.”
“Hahaha. How much do you have destiny?” ask Michael.
“What do you mean?”
“Just ask the fan you call cool.”
Michael brought up the incident again this afternoon, when they were at the coffee shop.
“Keren? Ohhh. This pen? Whaddya think? Isn't this cool? Look at shape. Perfect.”
Ella took the pen she took from one of her fan men.
“Compared to this pen, you're so cool. Fuuuuhhh!!”
Ella brought her face closer to Michael and blew her ears.
“What's wrong with you?”
Michael felt amused by that.
“Hahaha. Don't be jealous.”
Ella pulled down her body and used Michael's thigh as a pillow.
“I'm not jealous.”
“Sstttt. I'm sleepy.”
“Sleep in your room. Don't be here.”
Michael won't let Ella sleep in his room.
“I don't want to. Mozza is still here. I'm going to sleep with the Mozza. Just relax your muscles.”
*PLAC!!
Ella hit Michael's leg which she used as a pillow to keep from straining.
“Did the hospital director not contact you yet? To return to teaching literature class?”
“He contacted me.”
Ella had fallen asleep on Michael's lap, not responding to his words.
Slowly Michael moved Ella's head and replaced it with a pillow, then covered it so as not to get cold.
Michael also slipped the finished Mozza in Ella's arms.
After that, Michael went back to his room to rest.

In the morning, Jane and her mother board a car to go to work together.
Jane's mother also still saw the face of Jane who was very moody because she did not accept if she had to accept Tom and Feli living in her house.
“Why your face? What's the problem again?”
“Why did mom ask Tom's parents job while at home?”
“We'll stay together, can't I ask that?”
“Mother looks interested in him.”
“I'm not the one interested in him, but he's the one interested in you.”
“Know where?” ask Jane who is surprised.
“At the age of the mother now, there are some things that you can directly know.”
“If mom already knows, never give her a chance,” Jane said.
“He is hardworking and cheerful. Seems responsible. What's wrong?”
“Do you know my reasons are like this?”
“Mom knows it, Son. That's why Mom said this. I hate men who don't love my daughter back. Hate so much, but I feel sorry for him too.”
“Then you are more important to Mom.”
“Didn't mom say I should chase her to the ends of the earth?”
“Mother is afraid that if you continue this way, you will chase him to the end of the abyss.”
Jane fell silent and thought of her mother's brief and meaningful words.
Arriving at OLDER hospital, they meet Ella, Michael, and Marco who also just arrived there.
“Halo, Mother Jane!” greet Marco.
“Wahhh homeowner,” Ella says.
