"Bring along her assistant with her." Greg answered.
Sylvia looked at him and nodded.
Jeff turn around and immediately do the process of patients transferring.
------
Harry opens his eyes only to meet his sight with a white ceiling. He blinked several times and realize he wasn't dead yet.
"How are you feeling now?" He heard a familiar voice on his side. But his neck was too to move his head to the side.
"Miss Siren..." He calls her name.
He felt a small petite hands holding his and squeezing it softly.
"You scared me to death, you idiot."
He chuckled. He felt his cheeks burn in pain. But he hold himself from groaning.
" I'm sorry. I should have called you I'm not coming today to fix some matters."
"You've been absent for three days now. That 'some matters' of yours almost left you life less if I didn't came." Her soft voice was stern yet it was soothing. Throwing his worries away.
"I'm sorry, I overslept."
" Yeah, you overslept. You should get up now and start working. The bills are already huge and it will cost half of your life to pay." She chuckles.
" Thank you for saving me. " His tears flowed uncontrollably.
Siren quickly wiped it with the tissue so gently. Afraid that she might hurt him.
" Let's get well together alright? I need you to drive for me. You know, Jeff is a terrible driver. I can't trust him my life-worth Lamborghini."
Though his face was still swollen, it lits up when he heard her jokes.
---------
"Cheers!"
Meryll and Conrad shared a toast as a celebration for Meryll's contract signing today.
"I'm so proud of you." Conrad smiled as he pinched her nose.
"Thank you." The smile on her face was really bright. "Who would have thought that I can enter S&GM? After all, I'm just newly graduated."
"No doubt that it's because you are great. I'm sure you will be the best interior designer of S&GM soon. Knowing you, you will nailed it!"
"Thank you. Of course I'm so proud of you too. Look at you, you are also working with the company and it's because you are great in everything you do too." She bring back his compliment.
"Let's hope for the best!"
"For more success!"
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"

"What are you looking at?" Felix followed the direction that she's looking at.
Siren turn her head and continue slicing her steak. She didn't tend to mind Felix's confused look.
"If you will only be keeping yourself looking at them, you must join them instead."
"Why would I?" He hold himself and put his attention back to his own plate. "You are the first one who started looking at them."
"It's just because they are pitiful!" She furrowed her brows.
" Why are so upset?"
"This meat is insanely hard to cut."
" Let me cut it for you then." He offers.
" No thanks. I've already lost my appetite. Call the waiter and order prawns for me." She stood up.
"Where are you going?"
"To the washroom."
She purposely kicked the chair when she passed from the other table. But the two people who seems to not seeing anybody didn't noticed it all. And it pisses her off.
------
At his peripheral view, he thought it was Reena walking towards the washroom.
His heard pound so hard. Without even thinking, he stood up.
"I'll just make an important call." Meryll nodded without asking.
"Reena?"
On the way to washroom, Siren turn to a halt when she heard a familiar voice.
Her heart became restless as she realized who the person was.
"Reena? Is that really you?" He walked passed her and stand in front of her.
"Excuse me, but my name is not Reena."
"Impossible. It was you. I thought I am ever going to see you again." Though his face looks so relieved, Siren don't feel like giving a damn. "How are you? I've been wanting to find you. But I don't know where to start. "
"I'm sorry, mister, but I guess you are mistaken. My name is not Reena." She tried to walk again but he stood her way.
"You're lying. Why are you acting this way? Are you still mad at me?" He hold her shoulders and made her look in his eyes. "Okay, I admit that it was my fault. I shouldn't have told you things like that. And I'm so sorry." The sincerity was in his eyes. But it didn't moved her.
It was just his face. He can keep himself acting on spot. But she knew him. She knew how he was able to hurt him in just a snap.
"I will repeat, my name is not Reena. And I don't know who the hell she is. So you better keep your hands off me or else I'll call for help." Her eyes was cold and it made him taken aback.
"Siren?" They both turn to look at Felix's direction. "Is there anything wrong?"
She shrugged Conrad's hands off .
"No. It's just happen that this guy was talking nonsense to me and mistaken me for someone else." She glared at Conrad's face before walking towards Felix.
"Ah."
"Let's go find another place. This place is so cheap and just for frugal people."
She knew that everyone will hear it and will probably raised their brows but she doesn't care. As long as she made him hear it, it's all fine.
Conrad's face turns into confusion.
He knew it was Reena. Her smell, her eyes, her voice... it was her. But why is she with Mr. Wines? And he even called her Siren. Is he really mistaken?
---------
"Keep off that silly smile of yours before I'll decide to rip off your face." Siren throw a deadly glance at Felix's face.
"Why so? Is there any law that forbids someone to smile?" He asked. Not minding her irritation. "Besides, why are you so pissed? I should be the one to be pissed on you."
"And why?" She furrowed her brows.
"I was really hungry earlier. You called me suddenly and then asked me to eat dinner with you. Then you just changed your mind and I had no choice but to leave that tasty meat behind."
"It's your fault. Why did you bring me to a place like that? That place is so cheap. And the trash are even mixed with their costumers." She looked outside the window.
He heard him sigh.
"That's not a proper way of insulting people alone. Why do you have to badmouthed the place itself?"
"Are you siding with them now?"
"No. I'm just being fair. I could sense something happen between you and that Conrad Younas guy. But targeting him didn't have to go targeting people around him too. Sometimes you are just unreasonable and you are too high to admit it."
"You don't know what that man had done to me! If you only knew, you'll do the same thing as I did."
"Then why not settle things off between you too alone?" He's sharp eyes spotted a Japanese restaurant ahead. "Let's try Japanese seafood. You say you want prawns earlier, right?"
"I don't like prawns."
Felix rolled his eyes. Did Siren's mind loses some screws? He barely understood her attitude before, and it was worse this time!
--------
After some debate whether they would continue their dinner or not, they finally get inside the restaurant and eat their dinner.
And after arguing in some matters over dinner, Felix dropped her to the hospital where Harry was still admitted.
"It's been two weeks since he got hospitalized, how's he doing?" Felix shoved his hands inside his pocket.
"He's fine. The doctor said he can be discharged anytime."
"Did you already get this reported to the police?"
"No. I'm waiting until he can pull himself again. But Jeff told me that it's a close intention."
Felix turned confused.
"You mean?"
"Yeah. It was a personal issues. Maybe it was done by someone so close to him. His friends or relative, maybe."
"Oh. So what's your plan after he got discharged?"
"I'm thinking about it too. I know, if he's going to go back to his house, there will be a big chance that this may happen again. What do you think?" She looks at him.
They stopped at the door that Harry has been occupying.
"Why don't you tell him to move?"
"I was thinking about that too. But I haven't talk to him about it yet."
"You should tell him about it."
"Okay."
" So? I'll better go now."
She nodded. "Thank you."
He grinned sheepishly. "Pardon?"
"What's the use of that two wide ears of yours if you can't hear clearly?" She rolled her eyes.
"It's just a once in a lifetime word from you. I just need to double check if you really said that."
She hold the knob. "Get lost." Then she opened the door and entered the room.
Felix chuckled with such a light feeling in his chest.
