The Emperor Neptune
Finding the Meaning of Love 3

Lisa's in front of Violet's ward. She hesitates to go in and tell the truth if she fails to take Kay to the hospital to see Violet.

Ceklek... Lisa's voice opened the door, after a moment before it had repeatedly set its breath.

"Lisa!" exciting Chandra.

Lisa did not respond to Chandra's call, walking towards the ward where Violet lay with a pale face and blue lips and wrapped in layers of warm blankets.

"Lisa, aren't you with Kay?"

"I failed."

"Why? Does he not want to?"

"He didn't even realize his mistake. And turn around to blame me. This is not the time to debate who is wrong and who is right. So I left him. I don't want to deal with him anymore."

"You're too quick to draw your own conclusions. Just like your sister!" kay's voice responded to Lisa's words.

"You?" Lisa is shocked to see Kay and Mark at the door.

"Yes! Me!" kay replied as he walked closer to the side of Violet's bed.

"Yes pardon! Why did it get like this? Mark contact Virgia. Tell him to prepare everything. We have to take him."

Mark nodded and walked away.

"Violet, wake!" Kay opened one by one the blankets that neatly wrapped Violet's body.

"Violet, it's me. Be aware!" Kay rubbed Violet's forehead.

Slowly Violet opened her eyes, though,

"Kay, it's cold" said Violet softly because it was so weak.

"I'll warm you up." Kay then went up to the ward and hugged Violet tightly.

Chandra who saw that his eyes felt hot and sore. He immediately shook his face and dodged to the window.

Lisa understands Chandra's feelings and approaches her

"Are you okay?"

"Do you think I'm okay?" Chandra asked back.

"Sorry." Lisa rubbed Chandra's back.

Mark entered, seeing the closeness of Lisa and Chandra his face looked indifferent but clearly visible from his eyes there was a fire of jealousy burning.

"Do we need to take him now?" ask Mark to Kay.

Kay simply glanced at Lisa as a gesture that Mark was able to perfectly translate.

"Lisa, come here we have something to talk about." Mark called Lisa.

Lisa and Chandra walked over.

"Violet won't change if it's just treated here. He must be treated in a special place. I'll take him." said Kay.

"Where are you taking it?"

"To my mansion. There's a special medical room better than this place. There are experts there too."

"But I can't leave town. I have a contract of employment. If I cancel it then I'll get a very large fine from them."

"I'll pay for it!"

"I'm sorry I don't owe you anything."

"If so let my Violet take it without you. If you want to visit her come with Mark."

"After what happened to Violet when I was with you do you think I can still trust you this time?" ask Lisa in her cynical tone

"Then you want me how? Let your sister die or I'll have to hug her like this all day to warm her up?"

"That's Lisa. What if I accompany her?" Chandra gave a suggestion.

"No! You'll only influence it later." Kay selfishly said.

"I? Affect what?"

"You think I'm stupid, huh? I know you like Violet and you want to take her away from me!"

"Whatdidyou say? Seize? You better look in the mirror on that wall! You're nothing to Violet. Even yesterday Violet herself kicked you out!" Chandra won't lose.

"The fact is that at a time like this, I was the one he was looking for and he needed. Not you!"

"ENOUGH!!!" lisa snapped annoyed at Kay and Chandra's debate.

"You can take Violet but you have to go with Chandra. And once I finish my work I'll catch up with him. It's my decision for Violet's good so work well together! At least until Violet recovers. If Violet has recovered you'll be fighting and throwing nuclear bombs at each other then I won't care." Lisa walked straight to the door.

"Where are you going?" ask Mark to grab Lisa's hand.

"You take care of the admistration for Violet's return." Lisa took her hand off Mark.

"I'll come with you."

"Whatever!" Lisa walked first and Mark followed behind her.

Finished administering to Violet's return, Violet,

"Lisa we need to talk." Mark grabbed Lisa's hand.

"Is now the right time?"

"But I can't you just keep acting like this to me dear."

Lisa breathed a heavy sigh.

"alright. It's better we talk faster so that all this ends quickly. We'll talk in the back of the hospital." Lisa immediately stepped into the garden, followed by Mark.

Lisa sat on a long bench, followed by Mark beside her.

"Darling, don't ignore me like this. I know I was wrong not to watch and take good care of Violet. And I'm the one who should be responsible for all this." Mark looked at Lisa's face looking straight ahead.

"From our childhood I always looked after her. Whatever he wants, I always try to make it happen. He was the only one who understood me the most in my life. And you almost made me lose him. Do you think I'd be so easy to forgive you?"

"I promise I'll fix all this but I beg you to accompany me. With you accompanying me will be harder and harder to try."

"Didn't you also promise me that you'd take care of her when you took her first? But the truth is he suffered like that until now. Mark I think we'll just end our relationship" Lisa said, wiping away her tears.

"What's? You want to end it? Nah! I'll never want to!" mark firmly shook his head, not believing Lisa to take such a big decision over their relationship.

"But I no longer want to have any business with you. I'mfrightened.. Hix..." Lisa is crying again.

"What are you afraid of? Have I hurt you all this time?"

Lisa shook her head.

"What's your reason for being afraid?"

Lisa just kept quiet and kept crying,

"Is it because of that man? Do you like him equally?" ask Mark with a red face.

"Which man do you mean? Chandras? You're the same as Kay! Can't admit your own mistakes. You know, the problems you're making, he's trying to solve them!"

"Sorry baby. I'm really upset. Give me a chance. I'll prove it to you if I'm gonna try to fix all my mistakes for you and Violet."

Lisa remained silent, holding back her true heart was also very painful telling Mark that.

"Dear, please, give me another chance. If I fail I promise not to obey all your will, though I will be tormented for the rest of my life."

"alright. Now give my Violet back to being the Violet she used to be!"

"Thank you dear. I promise I won't waste this opportunity you gave me." Mark hugged Lisa with gratitude.
