Kapitel 44: What Happened To Rachel?

Viona ran while tightly holding her cellphone. Her legs felt weak, but she still tried her best to get to her apartment. The autumn wind was colder until it pierced her bones. However, it didn't stop her steps to keep running towards her house.

After she arrived at her place, Viona immediately turned on her laptop to do a video call with Jenni. Her cellphone was almost dead because it ran out of battery.

After catching her breath, Viona started a video call with Jenni in England. With tears in her eyes, Viona saw clearly how her fellow doctors in England were seen paying their final respects to Doctor Rachel.

They were seen holding back their sadness when shaking hands with Rachel's parents, as well as Jenni, who was present at the funeral home to represent Viona.

"Why did you do it, Rachel?" Viona was in tears as she buried her face in her hands. Even though her relationship with Rachel was not good at the hospital but she knew that Rachel was actually a good woman.

"Viona, are you still there??!!!" Jenni was seen waving her hand on the screen, calling Viona.

"Yes, Jen. I'm still here," Viona replied, staring at her laptop screen again.

"I don't know if this means something to you, or not. Earlier when I was in the toilet I overheard a conversation between Doctor Rachel's sister talking to her mother. They said that Doctor Rachel was 3 months pregnant," said Jenni with a very serious face.

"Pregnant??? Doctor Rachel was pregnant?!! Are you serious Jenni?" Viona screamed in surprise. She clutched her laptop in distraught.

"That's what I heard. Maybe for more details, you can ask other doctors," Jenni replied in a choppy voice because the video quality was getting worse.

"Viona, can you hear my voice?" Jenni's voice sounded increasingly unclear and finally, the video call connection was completely cut off.

Viona just stared straight at her blank laptop with a distraught gaze. She was still shocked at Jenni's words. As a woman, she felt hurt when she saw the video of Rachel's confession this morning. The video shocked Britain. And now coupled with the fact that Rachel committed suicide while being 3 months pregnant.

"You're stupid Rachel... You've made a mistake by having an affair with that bastard. But, why do you have to kill your child too? You're too weak Rachel," cried Viona.

Viona's tears flowed down her face lamenting the death of one of her colleagues in her old hospital in England. She hated it when someone threw away their life or killed her own child.

Every time she remembers that Viona would be sad. She would be reminded of how she was also unwanted by her biological parents. If not for Maria, maybe she would be dead now too.

Tired of crying, Viona finally fell asleep without changing clothes and turned on the light of her apartment. She slept in a completely dark room.

Outside, Fernando is still circling around looking for Viona's new apartment. He almost found her apartment if he didn't lose the signal. Fernando tracked Viona's whereabouts through her cellphone signal.

However, when he was about to find her, the signal suddenly disappeared. Eventually, it made Fernando lose track.

"I can't possibly check every door in this building," Fernando said irritably, staring at the two apartment buildings that he thought were Viona's residence.

Exasperated, Fernando finally came home empty-handed. He had to be more patient with her. Fernando drove fast because he just remembered there was an important thing he had forgotten.

"Sooner or later you will come to me, Viona. I have your stuff!!" murmured Fernando, staring at a pile of files beside him.

After Fernando left, Frank's blue sports car appeared. It parked right where Fernando's car had parked earlier. Frank got out of his car, tidying up his clothes first, and then walked into Viona's apartment. He brought a bag filled with food which he would enjoy with her for their dinner.

KNOCK

"Viona, are you in there??"

"Hey, are you're home? It's me... Frank."

The sound of knocking on the door and Frank's voice finally made Viona wake up. Her eyes were still closed. As she was trying to adapt to the dark conditions of her place, slowly Viona walked to the wall and turned on the light. Then, she walked towards the door to open the door for Frank.

KNOCK

"Viona, it's Frank. Open the door," Frank said repeatedly.

The door was opened from the inside.

"Ye, Frank. Be patient" Viona replied, smoothing her messy hair.

"Viona!!! Why happened to your eyes? You've been crying!! Why? Did someone hurt you? Viona, answer me!!!" shouted Frank suddenly when he realized Viona's face was swollen with red eyes.

Viona slowly approached him and let him into the apartment. She tidied up the open laptop on the table and sat with her head down.

Frank smiled wryly seeing Viona looking dejected. He then closed the door and followed her to the sofa where Viona sat. Seeing Viona's messy condition, Frank finally prepared the food he brought himself. He took several plates and glasses from the cabinet and placed them on the table to be filled with food.

"Come on, eat. I know you haven't had dinner yet, right?" Frank said softly, stroking Viona's messy hair.

Viona lifted her face and then looked at Frank with sad eyes. Her eyes were in tears again. Realizing that Viona's condition was not good, Frank immediately changed his seat and then hugged Viona tightly. He pulled Viona's head to rest on his broad chest to provide a place to cry for her.

Frank stroked Viona's hair lightly while patting the shoulder of the girl who was still crying on his chest, he let her spill all her tears in on his chest. After nearly twenty minutes, Viona finally lifted her head from Frank's chest while wiping the tears that still ran down her face.

"Are you okay, now?" Frank asked softly, touching Viona's cheek.

"Thank you. Sorry, your clothes are dirty because of me, Frank" Viona answered haltingly.

Seeing that Viona still couldn't speak properly, Frank took a glass of water to give to the girl to make her calmer. Viona drank the water Frank gave her. She took a long breath.

"I'll take a shower first, Frank," said Viona, standing up.

"OK, later after that you just tell me what happened to you," Frank asked while enjoying the french fries he had brought.

"Mmm" Viona replied as she walked to the cupboard to get some clothes to bring to the bathroom.

Viona walked to the bathroom and locked it from the inside and began to take a shower. In the living room, Frank was still sitting enjoying the food in front of him while playing with his cellphone.

Soon after, Viona had finished taking a shower and changed into her pajamas. Her wet hair was tied with a small towel over her head and left a trickle of water flowing around Viona's temples. Seeing her, Frank gulped. His desire rose.

Viona sat beside Frank without any suspicion. She enjoyed a glass of warm milk that Frank had prepared. Her sweet smile etched on her face as she enjoyed the pizza in front of her.

Meanwhile, Frank was staring at Viona with a hungry look. He started panting and his desire aroused as he smelled her scent so close like this.
