Louisa and Robert walked hand in hand when they got out of his car, which was parked in the underground parking lot. They were heading to the elevator. After their shift ended, Robert invited her to have dinner at a fast-food restaurant.

"Thank you, Robert," said Louisa nervously, trying to break the silence in the elevator.

"Thank you for what?" Robert asked, he was confused as he turned to see Louisa who was standing beside him.

"Thanks for the treat earlier at the restaurant and thanks for the ride too," she answered with a sincere smile.

"Why do you have to thank me? After all, we only ate burgers and fries at McDonald's. It's not something that fancy. We also live in one apartment so it's fine if we go home together, right?" Robert replied quickly.

Louisa only smiled at Robert's words and soon the elevator stopped on the ninth floor. The two of them stepped out as soon as the elevator door opened and went their separate ways to their respective units in a different hallway. After arriving in front of her room, Louisa immediately entered a combination of numbers to open the door to his room. When she was about to walk in, she turned to the left where Robert was also entering the password for his apartment. She didn't want the guy to catch her staring at this handsome man so she quickly got into her apartment and closed the door.

"I shouldn't hang out too often with him. He's a married man and it's not appropriate for me to get this close with him. I have to keep a distance from him," said Louisa quietly while remembering the words of some nurses in the cafeteria who said that Robert Elgar was married to a Russian woman.

Since it was getting late, Louisa then went to the bathroom to take a shower before going to bed. In the bath, she was remembering what had happened this afternoon Robert offered her a ride when she was going home. Not only that, but he also invited her to eat at his favorite fast-food restaurant. She felt guilty to Robert's wife for making him come home too late today.

"Hopefully his wife is not angry because her husband came home late," said Louisa regretfully as she grabbed the towel that was near the bathtub since she had finished taking a shower.

Louisa felt bad about refusing Robert's offer this afternoon when she left the hospital because Robert had offered her twice to take her home and he even opened the door for her. On the other hand, she felt guilty for hanging out with a married man. Her previous experience with Frank made her a little careful about establishing closeness with any man, especially a man who already has a wife like Robert.

During lunch earlier in the canteen, some nurses talked about Robert's good looks and how the guy was hired directly from Russia to replace Cecilia who was previously assigned to replace Viona's position. Some of them said that Robert was their second idol after Franklin. But one of the nurses suddenly said that Robert was already married to a Russian woman. Those nurses who were gossiping about Robert seemed to be disappointed after finding out that the new doctor already had a wife.

After changing clothes into pajamas, Louisa then went to her bed to go to sleep. Louisa only met Frank twice after going back to work from her leave because her parents passed away. The first time was when Frank approached her out of nowhere when she just came out of the meeting room and the second time was this afternoon when she was queuing for food at the staff hospital canteen.

Her heart was still beating faster whenever she saw the man she had loved before. But after convincing herself that the man who had filled her heart for the past months was now with another woman, Louisa could regain control of herself and act normal when she met Franklin.

"I wish you are happy now, Frank. Whoever you will be with I hope that woman can make you feel happy," Louisa said softly as she closed her eyes and pulled out her thick blanket.

Casa Grande Apartments

A black car stopped in the lobby of building B in the Casa Grande Apartments complex. Soon, a beautiful woman came out and it was none other than Cecilia with a sling bag and a cute doll which she embraced tightly. She just came home from her honeymoon with Andrew for one week. Even though they still had two more days to enjoy their honeymoon, Andrew invited her to come home early so she could rest at home before returning to work.

"Honey, should I help you?" asked Cecilia half screaming at Andrew who was still unloading things from the car.

"No, I don't need your help, I can do it myself. You better get inside first," Andrew replied quickly as he took out a large suitcase from the car's trunk.

Cecilia could actually get inside their apartment by herself, but she chose to wait for her husband to finish unloading their belongings from the car while sitting on the large suitcase that Andrew had just unloaded.

"Why are you sitting on top of a suitcase?" Andrew asked gently to his wife who was still looking at him with looks of love.

"Seeing you unloading things like that makes me horny," replied Cecilia, she was trying to tease her husband even when they hadn't entered their apartment.

"Hey…Don't talk like that!! Watch your words, we're outside," Andrew said with an elevated tone as he looked at Cecilia, who was still covering her mouth with her hands.

"Hahaha, I'm just kidding, Honey. It's already late. Nobody's here," Cecilia replied, trying to defend herself.

"Be careful with what you are saying when we are outside, Darling. Don't talk about vulgar things like that in public like this. I don't like to hear it," Andrew replied as he drew closer to his wife and pinched her nose slightly.

"Aww….It hurts!!!" Cecilia screamed while holding her nose, which was turning red from being pinched by her husband.

"That's a small punishment for you, so let's get in. I've got all the things out of the car," Andrew invited his wife to enter the apartment.

Cecilia nodded slowly in response to her husband's words, she then walked towards the apartment by pulling a small suitcase excitedly. From behind, Andrew saw his wife walking toward the elevator with a wry smile, Viona's figure suddenly returned to his memory.

'Viona used to be very careful in speaking in public, she really is a woman who can maintain her attitude in public places. Unlike what you just did Cecilia, how can I forget Viona and replace her with you in my heart completely if you keep reminding me of Viona's old habit like this, Cecilia?' Andrew said to himself.

Andrew then snapped out of his reverie when he heard Cecilia called him. She was waiting for him in the elevator and waved to him to ask him to get everything inside. He then pulled his big suitcase firmly and entered the elevator where his wife was waiting with a smile she tried to make as natural as possible.

Every time he remembered about Viona, his mood was instantly destroyed. The elevator door then stopped on the floor that Cecilia had pressed beforehand, they then got out of the elevator by first taking out their big suitcases, and then they pulled it to their apartment unit which had been left behind for almost a week.

"Home sweet home," Cecilia shouted loudly when she entered the apartment.

"Turn on the lights first," said Andrew with a smile to remind his wife to turn on the light.

"Hehehe, sorry I forgot," said Cecilia with a laugh as she pressed the switch on her left.

The lights in their apartment unit were turned on one by one so that all the rooms could be seen clearly. Cecilia then walked to the kitchen to make a cup of coffee for her husband. She thought that her husband might want one since the weather was so cold outside. Meanwhile, Andrew was seen carrying his large suitcase into the room to unload all of his stuff.

"The coffee is on the table, Honey, I'll take a shower first," Cecilia whispered softly to Andrew who was taking out some gifts he planned to give to his colleagues.

"Yes, thanks," Andrew answered quickly.

Cecilia immediately took off all her clothes in front of Andrew, she didn't feel embarrassed to do that and she just threw her clothes on the floor as if she was giving Andrew a code to follow her into the bathroom.

"You really are not satisfied yet, Sweetie?" asked Andrew with a smile as he looked into the bathroom where his wife was bathing under the shower without closing the door.

Andrew then left everything he was doing and followed his wife into the bathroom without taking off his clothes. They then went back to making love in the bathroom for the umpteenth time, Cecilia was really excited about getting pregnant, so she always asked Andrew to do his job well.
