Chapter 4
Finally, I didn’t apologize either.
Elisa kept crying in pain, so Salvador had to carry her downstairs.
As I watched their backs, I suddenly remembered that I had to go to the hospital as well.
My sleep was not good.
I don’t know when it started, but I often stayed awake all night.
I had taken so much Melatonin before I finally thought of seeking help from a doctor.
The hospital today was not crowded, and I quickly got the medicine.
When I went downstairs, I unexpectedly saw Salvador and his friends.
It’s not surprising. This is the closest hospital to home.
Elisa was being held by Salvador, with the man also carrying medicine in one hand.
Attracted the envy of passersby.
“Look at other people’s boyfriends,” a pregnant woman pinched her own man.
Elisa looked shy, but Salvador remained calm.
We met at the elevator entrance.
I didn’t say anything, but Elisa started to struggle.
Her face turned red.
“Salvador, put me down, please.”
Salvador frowned, “You were injured, don’t move around.”
Then, he abruptly asked me.
“How come you came too? Are you
sick?”
I showed him the medicine.
“Just insomnia.”
Salvador pondered for a moment.
“Then I had the assistant buy some Lavender to bring back, and you put some in the bedroom.”

He wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by the girl in his arms.
Elisa started screaming in pain again, sounding like a little cat.
The elevator kept going down when suddenly, there was a loud bang, and it came to an abrupt stop.
The lights went out.
In the darkness, I silently crouched down.
The body couldn’t stop trembling.
I was afraid of the dark.
Salvador didn’t forget about this either and started calling me.
“Donna, Donna, are you okay?”
I choked and made a sound.
“Elisa, you come down first, Donna is afraid of the dark…‘
In the darkness, Elisa cried softly.

“I was also very scared, brother, please don’t let me down…”
Salvador also ignored me and started to tenderly coax someone.
My hands and feet started sweating, feeling chilly.
Once upon a time, Salvador and I encountered an accident in the elevator.
The lights suddenly went out, and the elevator got stuck on a certain floor.
I forgot to cry out of fear, I couldn’t stop trembling and sweating.
Salvador had an OCD, but that time he held me very gently.
No complaints or resentments were expressed.
Just like now, he used to coax Elisa.
“Salvador…”
The darkness made me more vulnerable, and my cheeks became moist.
I still fantasized about the warmth in his embrace.
But Salvador broke it himself.

“Elisa, she got injured…”
I remained silent and buried my head in my arms.
After a while, the lights came back on.
The elevator was descending normally.
As soon as I arrived on the first floor, I stumbled to my feet and rushed out.
Returning home, I still had lingering fear.
On my phone, I didn’t have the mood to choose the wedding dress styles that my mother sent.
I simply watched the clock turn in silence.
I don’t know how long it has been, but Salvador came back.
He brought back a handful of Lavender and some food.
I opened it, and there was a bowl of shrimp wontons.
Salvador didn’t remember that I was allergic to shrimp.
He continued to apologize to himself.
“You didn’t eat, eat it while it’s hot.”
I opened the lid and finished eating all the ravioli.
The skin broke out in a rash.
But I didn’t care.
“Come back tomorrow for dinner, it’s your birthday.”
Salvador was taken aback but quickly nodded.
I got up and went to find some allergy medicine to take.
I was not good at cooking.
Only the pasta was made decently.
But today, for some reason, I failed to make several bowls.
I didn’t want to waste it, but I could only silently finish eating.
By doing the math, by the time Salvador comes back and celebrates his birthday, it will be time for

me to leave as well.
But in the end, I didn’t wait for him.
He called me.
“Elisa burned her fingers while cooking, so I had to take her to the hospital first.”
“You go ahead and eat first.”
Salvador always lied so clumsily.
