Getting out of the hospital was a happy thing for Laura. He smiled broadly after being outside the hospital building. The outside air was more refreshing than the scent of the hospital he hated.
"Laura."
"Russell?" laura said she could not believe she was meeting with the police officer again. "What are you doing here?" tanyakanya.
"I want to take you home."
She refused too late because Russell had dragged her to the car and put a seatbelt on Laura's body. At first glance he could see Russell's face at close range. The smooth white skin and thin red lips momentarily hypnotized Laura. When viewed in its entirety, Russell was very handsome. This was the first time after two years, Laura had never noticed the look of a person.
"Laura?"
Laura was awakened from her daydream. "What's wrong?" tanyakanya.
"Have your wounds improved?"
Laura nodded. "It."
"It wasn't the gunshot wound,"
"What do you mean?" laura asked suspiciously.
"The wound in your heart."
Laura was speechless letting a pause grace their conversation. As a stranger he had only met a few days ago could see about his past wounds, it was impossible for Russell to notice him differently. Laura would love no one and would not allow anyone to enter her heart after Gino.
"You like to interfere in other people's business." Laura turned her head to the side watching Russell who was focused on driving. "How old are you?"
"Nineteen years."
Nineteen years into being a cop, is that guy joking? However, Laura chose to keep that question in her mind.
"My father was the police chief and I saw him a lot if he wasn't busy in college. And that day, I accidentally saw you kidnapped. I was almost in jail for shooting the criminal, but my father was trying to find evidence that my actions didn't break the law. It's not fair to some people, but I'm grateful you're okay. The gunshot wound must have hurt and you're holding it" Russell said.
Laura shakes. "I'm fine."
"I'm just making sure your wounds are healed, then I can leave without guilt."
"I'm cured" said Laura, reluctant to argue.
"I know you're lying."
"Russell, you're still a kid don't interfere in adult affairs."
"I'm an adult to go after someone" Russell said.
"Pursue him." Laura closed her eyes as she felt Russell clutch his hand.
"I'm chasing you, Laura."
It's a little different to Laura's guess if Russell likes a brunette young girl. Not a quarter-century-old woman like her.
"I'm not interested." Laura took her hand off from Russell's. He opened his eyes and looked at Russell seriously. "I won't love anyone" he said firmly.
"I'll prove that I'm serious about Miss Laura."
Now that Laura understood the question, has your wound improved? Same question, but Russell meant it differently.

"I can be alone" said Laura.
"You can't move much. I'll cook for you."
Laura only wants to drink water, but in fact Russell actually cook a variety of Asian dishes. Even the man made sushi, even though Laura did not like Japanese food at all.
"First attempt at cooking, please enjoy Miss Laura."
Laura has not been able to refuse because Russell first bribed her. A spoonful of his favorite chicken soup was thrust into his mouth.
"This soup is good for recovery" Russell said with a sweet smile. "If you don't accept it, I'll bribe it my way."
Laura took over the spoon from Russell's hand. "I can eat by myself."
"Tonight my father didn't come home and the keys to the house were taken by my mother. They both forget their son and have fun in Europe. I also borrowed my friend's car to pick you up at the hospital. Some days I don't sleep well, nor do I come to college to take care of you. Laura, can you give me a little attention?"
Forget the look of puppy eyes to persuade someone. Russell put Laura on the dinner table and whispered in her ear.
"I want you."
Russell pulled Laura's face until they looked at each other. The bright lights of the kitchen further add to Russell's good looks. Laura admitted that the man was handsome. Russell's attractiveness is too great, but he mustn't let his heart fall.
"Stop it" said Laura.
"Every night I think of you, it scares me that you're gonna give up on life. Laura, I know you almost gave up on your life. If I hadn't shot that guy, would you still be here now? I want to see you live well, can't you let me chase you?" ask Russell.
"We just got to know" said Laura trying to break away.
"I don't like to hide feelings. Laura, I'm seriously going after you. Give me a chance to chase after you even if you don't choose me."
"I...."
His words stopped as Russell kissed his lips. The man continued to kiss her and lay Laura on the dining table. He had gone crazy by letting Russell kiss his lips. Laura forgets she was once let down by Gino and the man took away the most precious thing in his life. The shadow of the past as well as the pain forced Laura to see reality. His life will not return to what it used to be.
"Stop!" said Laura loudly.
"I'm sorry, but I don't want to stop."
Russell carried Laura to the sofa and kissed her again. He did not know how to resist the actions of Russel who was already under consciousness. His sense of well-being declined as Russell began to touch parts of his body and forcibly remove his clothes. Laura did not have time to cover her upper body because Russell had kissed her there. Playing with her tongue and Laura increasingly lost consciousness. His mouth refused, but his body was more honest and enjoyed the touch.
"I'm chasing you. Laura, you can't turn me down." Russell said.
The sound of falling things made Laura. He pushed Russell and grabbed his clothes. Then saw Mario standing in the doorway with a stiff face expression mixed with disappointment.
"Lala, you guys?"
Laura has yet to answer him when behind Mario appears Lucy and David. They were as surprised as Mario was while Russel put his arm around Laura's shoulder.
"I'll marry her."
