Help me!!! Help me!!!
Ella suffocates. The nineteen-year-old girl curled up, while protecting her body with a bag filled with books. He couldn't run, because those thugs had surrounded him.
Ethan, who happened to be passing through the street, immediately approached because he heard a female scream. Ethan's emotions immediately peak, when he sees Ella surrounded by thugs.
Buahgh! "You say what you guys are, bangst! Get away from my Ella!" Ethan just came, directly hit a thug who was the biggest body.
"You who, bangst! Don't stop us!" The thugs beat Ethan up.
"Please!!!" Ella screamed for help. Ethan is fighting alone, against the thugs.
"Ella, hurry up and call someone" exclaimed Ethan, who was beginning to get overwhelmed by the thugs.
Ella runs away from the thugs and scrambles her bag to get a cell phone.
"Damn it! Who are you calling?" Buahgh! Buahgh! Buahgh! A thug punches Ella and grabs the girl's cell phone.
"Bad, you!" Ethan goes to fight the thugs, and recaptures Ella's cell phone. He then hurriedly opened Ella's phone and dialed the number stored at the top.
"Hello? Ella's in danger. Located behind the campus."
Buahgh! A thug punches Ethan on the phone, seeking help. "Who did you contact, bangst!" The thugs hit Ethan again.
Ethan was a little grateful. Even though he was battered, but his existence made the thugs forget Ella. He just hopes that when the thugs off guard, Ella had run away to save herself.
"Where are they, anyway? Long time coming?" said Ethan who was battered. Ethan is worried that he is helpless, the thug goes back to chase after Ella.
Biggest thug, back to punch Ethan. But the tall and thin young man managed to avoid.
"Stop you guys!"
Some police came. Ethan called Albert for help. After getting word from Ethan, Albert immediately asked for help from the police. The policemen quickly chased and arrested the thug who was about to escape.
"Where's Ella?" albert asked frantically, not finding his daughter there.
"Ella? He must have run off to seek help, Om," Ethan said with a gasp of pain.
"I'm-I'm here."
Ella emerged from behind the bushes. Apparently he was hiding there, waiting for help to come. Ella couldn't run away, because those thugs must have seen and chased after her. He also could not contact someone, because his phone was seized by the thugs.
"Are you all right, son?" asked Albert who was feeling very worried about the state of his daughter. His feelings for the girl were really like a father to his son. No longer wavering like he used to, before he married Ghina.
"I'm fine." Ella's body trembled as it endured the fear. "Ethane ... Ethan ..."
"Ethan was just taken to the nearest hospital." Albert points to a car carrying Ethan. "You also have to go to the hospital" Albert said.
"What is my motorcycle? The key was taken by that thug," Ella said.
"Police took care of it" Albert said.
...🥀🥀🥀...
"Darling, how's Ella doing?" Ghina came in a hurry with her mother-in-law.
"Ella's okay, baby. He was able to walk in the hallway, too" Albert said. "It's just his friend who is severe," continued Ghina's husband.
"His theme?"
"Yes, a man who helped him" replied Albert.
Ghina saw Ella pacing around in a patient room. The eighteen-year-old girl looked anxious and scared.
"Ella, what are you doing here?" Ghina.
"Yes, I'm grateful that you're doing well. The one Mama asked, why are you here?" ghina replied to her daughter's embrace.
"Ethan was badly hurt for helping me, Ma. I'm worried about his condition. But I'm also afraid that her parents are mad at me" Ella said. From behind the slightly open door, Ghina saw a young man lying on the bed accompanied by his parents.
"Why don't you just go in, say thank you and apologize. Mama befriend, deh," said Ghina.
"Dad will also accompany you" Albert said.
"Excuse me." Ella opens the door to Ethan's room and stands in front of him.
"Yes? Who're you?" ask Ethan's parents.
"I'm Azura Auristella, Om, Auntie. Commonly called Ella," said Ella nervously. "I want to apologize, Ethan was hurt for saving me" Ella said.
"Ethan against those thugs?" ask Ethan's dad.
"really. We, as Ella's parents, want to thank her and also apologize" Albert said. "If necessary, Ethan's hospital fees let us pay for it" Albert continued.
"Oh, huh? Don't be afraid, son. We're not mad at you, anyway. The doctor said Ethan had a bruise. No fractures or other injuries" replied Ethan's father.
"But, are they really your parents?" ask Ethan's mother doubtfully. Albert and Ghina look very young. Ella told me about her parents.
"Oh, so is that it? We understand. You must be important to Ethan until he sacrifices himself" Ethan's father and mother said. Ella's cheeks were met red hearing it.
"Son, awake. Your friend came to see you" said Ethan's mother.
"Oh, if Ethan's taking a break, Auntie," said Ella hurriedly.
"It's okay. He slept late. Got to get up and eat" Ethan's mother said. He woke his son up again.
"Son, wake. Your friend is coming."
"Ella! You okay?" ethan said when he saw a sweet girl sitting by his bed.
"I'm okay, really. You are the battered one. Thanks, yes" said Ella. He felt awkward, because there were both of their parents.
"We stay first, yeah. You talk to your friends" Ethan's mother said, understanding Ella's feelings.
"Dad, Mom, he's not my friend. Ella is my boyfriend" Ethan said without hesitation.
"Huh?" muttered everyone there.
"It's okay to say it? Because I'm serious about you" said Ethan.
Ella lowered her head deeply, in great shame. He was shot twice by the same man.
"Ehem? I think Mama will soon be able to get a daughter-in-law" said Ghina.
"Hahaha, soon we'll be good, ma'am," Ethan's mother said. Meanwhile, Ethan and Albert's father just smiled at their son's behavior.
"As a parent, I approve of you, Ethan. We met a few times, too" replied Albert.
"I also agree. As long as you can take care of each other, and stay in college until it's over," Ethan's father said.
"I understand. But why is everything so serious, anyway? Ethan just said I'm his girlfriend. It's not a proposal" Ella said withholding embarrassment, but also pleasure.
"La, for now we're going out first. But I'm serious about you. In a few years, I'm gonna propose to you" Ethan said.
"God! Still hurts you can fight, huh?" said Ethan's mom.
