Chapter18 Η Antonios tenderness toward me vanished , replaced by immediate concern for her . As if I didnt exist , he rushed to her side . How did you get hurt ? Alicia smiled but her eyes met mine … Just twisted my ankle . Small world . Are you here to see a doctor too ? she said . Antonio hesitated , then looked away from me . My sis has a cold . Im taking her to see a doctor . He always introduced me as his sister , claiming he was looking while Freddy was abroad . Only a few closest friends knew our romance . diter me Alicia nodded , gesturing down the hall . You guys go ahead . Im off to the clinic on the other side . She hopped forward , and without a word , Antonio scooped her into his arms . Ill take you . ( Grace , wait here a minute . A wave of weakness washed over me at the sight of them together . I leaned against the wall , speechless . Antonio didnt wait for a reply , simply carrying Alicia away . His actions betrayed his true feelings . He seemed oblivious to the depth of his love for her .

Neglecting the burn , combined with my emotional turmoil , had led to an infection . I needed an IV . I instinctively reached for my phone to call Antonio , then stopped . What a bad habit , I thought , pushing the phone back into my pocket and heading off to get my meds alone .
