125 Compared To Me

Angela slowly opened her eyes, pain filled her arms, and her head was very dizzy.

“U-uh ....”

Hearing the moaning voice of someone who seemed to be in pain, Angela quickly got up, ignoring the pain. Her purple eyes widened, Kalea’s condition was really worrying.

“Lea, Lea! Shit, why did it become like this?! Angela shouted panicked, she could not lift Kalea’s body because her body was in a lot of pain. Moreover, the girl was covered in more blood than her because Kalea’s body was directly hit by the shard of an urn while Angela was only injured by the shard in the palm of her hand.

Kalea opened her eyes, looking very weak with a pale face. “... Are you okay? You’re hurt, Miss Jefferson,” Kalea mumbled, trying to get up but her body was hard to move with pain all over her body.

Angela looked at Kalea in disbelief, how could Kalea still worry about her while the girl’s condition was worse? Kalea was hit directly with the urn and fell to the floor, not to mention Angela’s body which was on top of her. Angela was even amazed that Kalea was still conscious.

“Are you crazy?! Your condition now is worse than mine; no need to ask about my condition, idiot!” Angela shouted furiously.

Not long after that, Arthur, Albern, and Aquila came because they heard the sound of the urn breaking, which sounded quite loud. The three of them stared in disbelief. Several servants also came.

“What happened?!” Arthur shouted in panic and immediately ran over to the two women. He deftly tried to lift Kalea’s body, which was weak and helpless, completely unable to move compared to her sister, who was sitting with tears starting to fall.

.....

Angela was helped by her father to stand up.

“We’re going to the hospital now! Please prepare the car!” Aquila’s orders were quick, and the servants immediately obeyed her.

At the hospital, the two women immediately received medical treatment. Kalea had to be taken to the operating room due to a back injury and a broken right arm. Whereas Angela only had minor injuries to the arm, she was only slightly weight-bearing at the time of the incident, and because all the pain was replaced by Kalea.

That night, Angela did not say much because she felt guilty. She looked at her family, who were so anxiously waiting for Kalea’s surgery to finish. Angela’s body instantly froze when her brother started to look at her with a flat gaze. Arthur walked over to Angela and took her to a quieter place.

“W-what?” Angela asked as she removed Arthur’s grip from hers.

“Actually, what happened? Why did you guys fall?” Arthur asked, looking at his sister so seriously.

“I-I don’t know either! It suddenly became like that!” Angela replied lying, she panicked, very panicked. What if Arthur found out about what happened back then? She would be hated, by her own family.

“Don’t lie, Angela. It’s impossible for you to suddenly fall. Sit here,” Arthur asked, pulling Angela’s arm to sit next to him. Angela looked reluctant, she shook her head slowly, but her brother’s gaze was so intimidating that she could not fight back anymore.

Angela bit her lower lip, then took a deep breath. “I slipped, Brother. There is nothing else,” Angela answered, looking at her brother no less seriously.

“You slipped?”

“Yes, the heels I was wearing broke and finally made me lose my balance. Lea who ... helped me, maybe,” Angela said, explaining in more detail. Actually, she hated to say this, but Kalea had sacrificed herself to hurt for her.

Arthur closed his eyes, trying to calm himself after knowing about the incident. He leaned his body against the wall. Arthur’s gaze looked blank, as if there were no more spirit in it.

“Do you think the operation will be successful or not?” Arthur asked, making Angela slightly surprised.

“You think she’s going to die? No! It shouldn’t be like that,” Angela answered, who thought for a long time that her safety level might decrease because Kalea’s injuries were quite heavy. However, she had to be sure that the operation would be successful.

If the operation is not successful, she has no idea how crazy she will be for feeling so guilty.

“I don’t know what to say if Lea is critical,” Arthur said, his shoulders relaxed all the time. He was really shocked by this incident, he did not want to see Kalea hurt again after the last time she took the girl and her mother to the hospital. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but please don’t do anything to hurt her, Angela.”

Angela looked at her brother in disbelief, Arthur was like this because of a woman like Kalea. It really did not make sense to her. Was what she suspected all along true?

“Brother, are you-”

“Arthur!” Aquila called, making the two Jefferson children turn their heads. Arthur quickly stood up, running to his parents because the surgery room door was already open.

Angela looked at her brother’s back, which was getting further away. Her family is now talking to the doctor, while Angela is still standing there watching them from afar. Her feelings were mixed together, even though she was also hurt, but it felt like she was not being cared for by her own family.

“Is it because my wound isn’t too bad?” Angela asked herself, looking down at her bandaged palm.

Angela slowly walked towards them. The doctor asked permission to resign after giving an explanation that made the Jeffersons heave a sigh of relief.

“Angela,” Aquila called with teary eyes, she hugged her daughter tightly. “Thank God, Lea is fine!”

Angela did not say anything, just returned her mother’s hug and smiled bitterly.

Not long after that, Kalea was transferred to the recovery room first before going to the inpatient room because Kalea’s physical condition still had to be monitored. And she needed to be hospitalized for several days to get the best treatment. Tonight, only Arthur will accompany Kalea in the hospital.

“You guys are better off at home, you must be tired of waiting for Lea’s surgery to be successful, right?” Arthur said.

“Are you sure it’s okay to be alone here, dear?” Aquila asked worriedly. “You’re tired too, honey. Where are you going to sleep?”

“It’s okay, Mom. I should have accompanied her,” Arthur replied with a faint smile. “Wherever it is, it’s a matter for later; who knows if Lea will wake up tonight?”

Albern put his arm around his wife and gently stroked her upper arm. “Alright, take good care of Kalea, Arthur. Then we go home first.”

“Yeah, be careful.”

“Come on, Angela,” Albern said to his youngest child. Angela nodded, and before she actually left the room, Angela glanced at her brother, who was peeking through the glass from the door where Kalea had surgery. Arthur’s face still showed great concern.

“Stupid brother,” Angela muttered under her breath before actually leaving Arthur alone there.
