Marrying a Cold Lecturer

Disappointment

After confirming Zea's condition had improved and removing the needle, the doctor who treated Zea allowed her to go home and rest at home.

"You can go home, get plenty of rest. Your mom can take good care of you and tell you what you can and cannot do to keep the same thing from happening again." the young doctor patted Zea on the shoulder and smiled at Sandra.

"Yes, thank you, Doc." said Sandra.

"The same, Doc!" the young doctor nodded and stepped out of Zea's room.

"Ma, what exactly am I sick of? How is he talking like that?" ask Zea curiously.

Sandra seemed hesitant to answer but somehow Zea should know about this disease.

"You have pneumothorax" Sandra replied.

"What disease, Ma? Dangerous right?"

Sandra took a breath and exhaled slowly, her voice stuck in her throat, hard to get out.

"Ma ...."

"Pneumothorax is a condition in which our lungs deflate and can not expand anymore, so the air can not come out properly. Usually it is due to a hard impact on the chest or because of activities that are too burdensome to the work of the lungs, such as ...." Sandra could not continue with her explanation.

"What's it like, Ma?" Zea is increasingly curious waiting for the continuation of Sandra's explanation.

"Swimming and diving." continued Sandra carefully, afraid Zea was shocked and could not accept all this.

As soon as Zea's face turned sad, she bowed and closed her eyes, trying to endure the tightness in her chest from hearing Sandra's explanation just now.

Sandra was increasingly worried about seeing her daughter's silent attitude, her tears began to fall. Sandra stroked Zea's shoulders gently, giving the girl a gentle touch to calm down.

Then slowly Zea raised her head and looked at Sandra's black bead expectantly.

"I can still swim, right, Ma?"

Sandra fell silent, unable to answer her daughter's saddest question.

"Ma ...?"

Sandra shook her head. "No, Ze. You can't swim anymore."

As Zea's tears fell, how devastated she was to learn that her childhood dream had to end before it materialized. Even when forced to go to college, he still hopes to become a swimming athlete. But now it's all gone.

Sandra hugged and tried to calm her daughter, knowing that this would happen when Zea heard the truth.

"Say that Mama is joking. That's a lie, isn't it, Ma?"

Zea was crying in Sandra's arms.

At the same time Mona and Rey enter Zea's room and see the scene of the day. Indeed, every time he wanted to visit Zea, Mona always invited Rey, because she knew her son was eager to see Zea but she would not dare to come alone.

Mona and Ray are confused by what happened, Zea who is still as unwilling as Sandra is not aware of their presence.

"San, what's wrong?" ask Mona.

Sandra immediately turned around and looked towards Mona and Rey, as well as Zea, the girl immediately threw a cynical look at Rey. At times like this, it is very annoying to have to see the cold face of the killer lecturer.

Zea got off her bed and walked past Rey to the exit, but Rey quickly pulled Zea's arm and stopped the girl.

Zea turned around and looked at Rey. "Deliver!!!"

Rey just flinching without letting go of her hand, Zea who was too disappointed and upset could no longer control her emotions and behaved impulsively.

Plyaaakk ....

A loud slap landed on Rey's cheek, leaving Sandra and Mona shocked instead of playing.

Rey simply turned her face away and closed her eyes, feeling the pain in her reddened cheeks. But his hand held Zea's arm.

"Don't bother me! This isn't college, so don't interfere with my business!" pickle Zea while pulling her arm firmly and running away from the room.

Even he doesn't care about Mona seeing all that.

Rey rushes after Zea without the girl's knowledge, she won't let the girl she loves herself.

Rey continued to follow Zea who ran towards the hospital garden, appearing Zea sitting on one of the park benches.

Rey takes a safe distance from Zea but keeps a close eye on the girl from afar.

Seeming occasionally Zea wiped away her tears, Rey really could not bear to see her like that, wanting to feel like she was hugging Zea, but that was impossible.

But suddenly, someone familiar to Rey approached Zea and sat down next to her. The man wiped the tears on Zea's cheek and hugged her.

Zea looked so calm in her arms. Seeing all that, Rey's emotions rose to the crown, Rey's hands clenched with a hardened jaw.

"Shoppers! Why is he here?"
