If Oscar hadn't saved her, she would be the one lying lifeless on the street right now.

She shouldn't have messed with Oscar and caused them to have a fight. Why couldn't Lisa be a normal woman who wanted to listen to others, especially her ex-husband?

Now, Lisa really wants to throw herself into the abyss!

From the past until now, Oscar had always treated her well. He would definitely help her solve the problem or buy her what she wanted. Even though he was annoying at times and sometimes a bitch, he was still the nicest man Lisa had ever met.

After what Oscar had done for her, why did she have to be so rude? What's more, she didn't want to give him another chance.

This all happened because of her! If they hadn't been fighting over her obnoxious attitude, they might have gone to pick up William by now. 

—Or not. 

.

Maybe, Oscar would be in Indri's room and Lisa would be okay with that.

In her opinion, it was better for Oscar to marry another woman than for the man to suffer like this.

Like a puppy losing its way home, Lisa followed the gurney from behind. Usually, no one is allowed to get into the ambulance and Lisa knows that. But that doesn't mean she will stop begging.

"Please, please, let me come with you…"

One of the ambulance attendants who pushed the gurney carrying Oscar's body turned towards her for a moment. "Sorry but we can't do that. The situation is—"

"Just this once, please! I promise I won't touch him! I won't make any sound! Please, I just want to be next to him…"

After pleading for quite a while, and even holding the ambulance door from closing, she was allowed to come inside on the condition that the woman didn't make any noise and let them do their job to save Oscar.

"Miss, please sit here and don't move much," one of the two medics ordered, pointing to the available long chair. "If you're not strong enough to see, just close your eyes."

During the trip, Lisa kept blaming herself. Killer, she is a killer! If something happened to Oscar she wouldn't be able to forgive herself!

The ambulance was quite cramped, especially with Lisa inside. The three medics were hindered and they couldn't quickly do their job. But since they were used to it and trained, at least they managed to stop the blood flowing from Oscar's body for a while.

Arriving at the hospital, Lisa is still like a loyal follower dog. She rushed out of the ambulance and followed the gurney from behind. 

Before she could see Oscar's gurney being put into the emergency room, the woman's eyes suddenly darkened. 

***

Lisa blinked a few times, trying to adjust her gaze. The hospital lights have never changed. It was so bright that it hurt her eyes.

Just like how Lisa felt now, especially when she just woke up.

The room was silent. Lisa turned to the side and saw the sky had turned dark. The sun was replaced by the moon and the clouds were replaced by stars.

Lisa tried to sit on the patient's bed slowly. Her head was still spinning, and oh, both her knees had been treated and bandaged. 

What happened? Did she faint in front of the emergency room? 

How long has she been unconscious? What time is it now?

How is Oscar doing now?

All kinds of questions filled Lisa's mind. The woman felt like an ignorant fool.

Lisa's head suddenly hurt when she remembered what happened last night. Oscar's body lay unconscious on the pavement and pools of fresh blood surrounded the man's body.

With lightning speed, Lisa stood up from the patient bed. 

"Ah, ah, wait a minute, Miss Lisa!" 

Suddenly, Lisa heard a familiar female voice from behind her. The woman turned and saw Mrs. Rusminah had just come out of the bathroom nearby.

"How are you now? Are you all right? Do I need to call a doctor or the nurse?" Mrs. Rusminah asked repeatedly. 

Instead of answering her question, Lisa walked over to the woman with wobbly steps. She took the middle-aged woman's hands and asked again.

"How is Oscar doing now? Where is he? Is he awake?"

Mrs. Rusminah did not answer Lisa's insistent question and looked at the woman with sad eyes. She didn't know how to explain about the man's condition to Lisa.

For several seconds, there was no answer from Mrs. Rusminah, and it made Lisa's heart stop beating. The woman asked again, but this time she almost yelled. 

"I asked you, how is Oscar doing now and you just keep quiet!? You have a mouth, why don't you answer my question huh!?" Lisa asked with rage. She released her grip on Mrs. Rusminah's hand. "Tell me!"

After the incident a few months ago where Mrs. Rusminah admitted that she worked with Clara to hide William and apologized, Lisa and the middle-aged woman started to build a good relationship.

As time went on, Lisa realized that she shouldn't be rude to the middle-aged woman. 

But now, her feelings are mixed together and her knees hurt, not to mention her head is spinning. Her blood's pressure is running high! She could no longer suppress her emotions and immediately asked such a harsh question.

Lisa just wanted to know Oscar's current state.

At the same second, before Mrs. Rusminah answered Lisa's rude question, Dani suddenly came inside. The man's face that had looked panicked now turned into relief when he saw Lisa was awake.

But the look on his face turned into panic again when he saw Lisa looking at him with a stinging glare.

"Ah, how are you now? Do I need to call a doctor or nurse for you?" Dani asked carefully. 

His worried eyes glanced at Mrs. Rusminah, trying to quietly ask, 'What's going?'.

Lisa's feeling of panic is getting more and more skyrocketing. Mrs. Rusminah didn't answer her question about Oscar and now, Dani didn't mention the man's name at all.

"You don't have to ask about my current situation. How is Oscar doing now? Where is he?!"
