Alba, Ana and Kiki held Micaela.
After a few seconds, Micaela opened her eyes and stood up leaning on them.
-Can I come in? -she looked at the doctor.
The doctor frowned, because mainly it was forbidden to enter. The patient had to stay in the operating room for an hour after the operation.
-Follow me,” looking at his swollen eyes, finally the doctor nodded.
Alba also wanted to go in with Micaela, but the doctor did not allow her.
-Don’t let the others go in.
Micaela and the doctor went inside and closed the door.
Alba was disappointed.
She wanted to visit him because she also cared about him a lot….
When Diego called her saying that Carlos had been shot, she choked. She felt no less concern and fear than Micaela….
Watching Alba, Ernesto became discouraged because she was still lost all the way. They were getting along well these days, but when Carlos was mentioned, she always….
-Don’t worry, the doctor said he’s fine. It is enough for Micaela to come in. Let’s wait here -Ernesto hugged her shoulder and said.

Micaela had changed into sterile and entered the observation room with the doctor.
Looking at Carlos, who was pale and face down on the hospital bed, Micaela couldn’t help but cry.
“You’re always so cheerful, why are you so weak now?”
Micaela became very sore….
Carlos was partially covered by a sheet. From his left shoulder to his upper abdomen, he was wrapped in gauze. He was infused and equipment could be heard running in the room….
If Carlos had not moved toward her, she would have suffered the gunshot.
Thinking about this, Micaela cried more with emotion….
He had told her not to get out of the car, why didn’t she listen to him? If she had not gotten out of the car, Carlos would not be wounded….
Micaela blamed herself a lot….
-Miss Micaela, don’t worry. He was shot in the left scapula and the organs are fine. Mr. Carlos will be fine. He is strong and will soon recover -the doctor brought her a chair and comforted her.
Why did the doctor know her name?
She wiped her tears and took a good look at the doctor, recognizing that he was the house doctor who came and went to Nyisrenda!
-I am a doctor exclusively for Mr. Carlos, a general practitioner, my name is Enrique,” the doctor explained, noting Micaela’s doubts.
-When will he wake up? -She nodded her head and asked in a slightly hoarse voice.
-When anesthesia wears off. Two hours or so.
Seeing that there was blood left on Micaela’s hands, Enrique took her to the bathroom.
After washing her hands, Micaela returned to Carlos’ side immediately and sat down in the chair. She wanted to touch him, but did not know if she could….
Looking at Carlos’ right hand out of the sheet, Micaela was about to pull it into the sheet. but he grabbed it!
Micaela’s mouth dropped open and she saw that Carlos’ eyes were still closed!
She burst into tears again – could he feel her, even though she was in a coma?
Micaela let go of his clenched hand and folded herself on the edge of the bed. She was watching Carlos’ face, where the lips were discolored….
He was still teasing her this morning, but now he was already so weak and lying here….
“Carlos, I still have a lot of things to tell you. You have to be well…”
After an hour, they moved Carlos to a VIP room.
Everyone approached him.
The bed in the room was bigger and more comfortable. And Enrique proposed moving Carlos to a large bed.
As Ernesto, Diego and Raul were about to lift him onto the bed, they encountered a problem.
Carlos was holding Micaela’s hand without wanting to let go.
Everyone was moved…
-Carlos, let go of me…” Micaela said in his ear.
-No,” Carlos answered unexpectedly.
All the people were surprised. Blushing, Micaela looked at Carlos, who was making an effort to open his eyes…
-I won’t let you go…” Carlos repeated.
The girls were thrilled.
How much he loved Micaela! He didn’t want to let go of her hand, even though he was anesthetized!
Micaela started to cry….
-What willpower he has! -Enrique exclaimed.
Diego also agreed.
-Well, let’s not move him. We let him rest -which also meant that other people left.
Micaela looked at the others and found that Ana and Kiki were also there.
-Micaela, don’t worry. Carlos will recover very soon,” Kiki approached her and handed her a thin box.
Kiki and Ana didn’t understand anything. Teladia’s security was especially good in Anlandana, but today a shot was fired at Carlos out of the blue, who was very powerful!
They knew it was not appropriate to ask or discuss about the shot since they did not know the others well.
-Micaela, your boyfriend loves you very much. Don’t cry. He doesn’t want you to feel sad,” Ana looked at Micaela worriedly.
Micaela nodded her head.
-Ana and I are leaving. We’ll visit you tomorrow and you rest well,” Kiki said.
The little box Micaela held in her hand was her Valentine’s Day gift for Carlos. If he hadn’t come to take the gift, she wouldn’t have been hurt….
-I’m sorry, you’ve been so worried. See you later,” Micaela replied to Kiki and Ana.
And they left after comforting her.
-Miss, I’m out. Call me if you need anything,” Raul said to Micaela and left.
So, only Ernesto, Diego, Alba, Micaela and Carlos were left in the room.
Ernesto remembered something and looked at Diego.
-You were saying that the murderer is dead?
-At that moment, the man told me the position where the murderer was and I ordered to block the building. They found him in the stairwell on the 25th floor. As he couldn’t escape, he shot himself…
