Chapter 22

Las chapter Andre got shot from work and everyone found out that he has leukemia and it’s at a second stage already.

In Andre’s hospital room

Andre: you two don’t have to be here every second (Jennifer and Dawn)

Dawn: Serenity told the professor and he’s giving me work at home. (smile)

Jennifer: and as for me I practically live here so now I have you as a neighbor (smiles)

Those words shock Dawn *He’ll be living here. He’ll spend the rest of his life in this hospital* she thought

Jennifer and Andre realizes that

Jennifer: Oops, I’m sorry. I should’ve said such an awful thing

Andre: it’s all right no need for apologies. (to Dawn) I’m feeling better

Dawn: yeah, um…

Then Brad came in then room

Brad: hello Andre! (Realizes that Jennifer is there also) um, how’s the recovery?

Andre: fine, man. Doing just great (trying to reassure Dawn also)

Dawn: why don’t you two talk. Jennifer and I will get some drinks

Jennifer: yeah, (feeling very awkward and ashamed in front of Brad still)

After the girls leave

Andre: she’s doing much better. She’s starting to forget give her sometime

Brad: (knows what Andre means) yeah well you know Dawn, she…

Andre: (laughing) you know who I’m talking about. Jennifer

Brad: you saw her she didn’t even glance at me once nor have she even talk to me

Andre: well then why don’t you go and talk to her instead?

Brad: man you’re right. (smiling)---sorry you can’t go and solve some crimes again.

Andre: well I’m sorry for breaking my promise. I promised you that I’d catch the rapist but I can’t…

Brad: it’s all right. Josh is on the case (patting Andre on the shoulder)

At the canteen

Dawn: you two should stop being total strangers

Jennifer: I just can’t look talk him. Whenever I see him I feel dirty all over again and I…

Dawn: (cut in) well ignoring him isn’t gonna work either. You’re making him feel that he was the one to blame.---you know Andre told me that last week every day he went to the bar and made himself drunk.

Jennifer: really? (Still cares for him)---Look I’, sorry you’re going through enough as it is and now I have to make you worry for me too

Dawn: it’s all right. Like the doctor said he has 7 months through 2 years to get through with this cancer and what better than for him to see his best friend get his love back.

Jennifer: oh, so you’re just doing this for Andre not for your best friend? (laughing)

Dawn: yup (laughing)

Man: here’s your order (to a man not to them)

Jennifer then takes the drinks and accidentally the man who’s the order is for touches her hand

Jennifer: ahh! Get away from me! I don’t want you touching my hand!

Dawn: honey, it’s an accident it was his order (patting her back)

Jennifer: he touch my hands!

Man: God, you act like no one can touch your hands! Crazy!

Jennifer: I’m not CRAZY! (tears are flowing out of her eyes)

Dawn: (to the man) just leave! Don’t ever call her crazy, understand?! (to Jennifer) it’s all right honey. Here’s our drinks and come on let’s go

Jennifer: he wanted to rape me. He wanted to touch me! Dawn! (crying)

Dawn: it was all an accident (*She’s still hurting so much* she thought)---let’s go back to the room okay?

Jennifer: I want to go back to my room

Dawn: okay I’ll walk you there (since Jennifer’s room is one level above Andre’s)

Jennifer: it’s okay I could…

Dawn: it’s only one level up.

Jennifer: (smile)

Back at Andre’s room, Dawn open the door

Dawn: Drinks are here! (smiling)

Andre: what took you so long? (took the drink)

Dawn: there was a misunderstanding down at the canteen so we got our stuff a little late (hands Brad a drink)

Brad: um, where’s Jennifer?

Andre and Dawn both smile to each other because they both knew that Brad still love Jennifer

Dawn: she went to her room because she wasn’t feeling too well. (made up an excuse)

Brad: is she alright? Why doesn’t she feel well?

Andre: why don’t you go ask. And besides you should take every chance possible to be together again.

Brad: but what if she…

Dawn: (cut in) you still say “what if” so you’re not so sure that she’ll push you away, right? So what better than to find out

Brad: (thinks for awhile) be right back (he left the room and was heading for Jennifer’s room)

Andre: (smiles) we got him started

Dawn: (smiles) now it’s up to Jennifer

In Jennifer’s hospital room

*Knock Knock*

Jennifer: who is it? You could come in (thinking it’s her mom or her friends)

Brad: (open the door and she saw him) hey (feeling nervous)

Jennifer: (didn’t say anything)

Brad: Dawn said that you weren’t feeling too well (try to smile)

Jennifer: (still didn’t say anything and didn’t even look at Brad)

Brad: (really hurt right now) I know that you hate me but…

Jennifer: (still didn’t look up) I don’t hate you

Brad: really? Then why are you not even looking at me and you barely want to talk to me? (kinda upset)---(cool down now) Jennifer I love you and you know that, why are you pushing me away?

Jennifer: (tears in her eyes) I don’t want to talk about it. Just leave. (*Brad, I love you too but I know that you can’t spent the rest of your life with a girl and had been raped* she thought painfully)

Brad: I guess this is a great way of solving things, just forgetting about them. (he turn around and open the door and left)

Jennifer: (starts to cry out loud and now was just crying her heart out)

Brad, who didn’t fully leave yet since her just close the door and now was standing in front of it, heard the crying and he knows that she still loves him. He opens that door again and ran up to her and hug her.

Brad: I love you (still hugging her. He wouldn’t let her go because if he did than she would go forever)

Jennifer: (hugging back now. She didn’t want to lie anymore. She still loves him very much) I’m sorry, I’m sorry (still crying)

Brad: (finally let’s go of her) shh, you don’t need to say sorry.

He then kisses her. His arms held her hard and close to his body and his cheeks brush against hers. The pounding of their hearts was louder than anything else. Then the kiss ended.

Brad: (whisper to her ear) do ever leave me, ever again.

Jennifer: (smiles. Then she kisses him. This time the kiss was slow and softly as if they wanted to enjoy the moment with each other)
