– WHAT!? When!?

– Before you came. She was here when I woke up. And after the doctor said everything was okay, she hugged me and kissed me.

Alice was mouth agape.

– Whooaah hold on, she hugged you and kissed you? But kissed you, kissed you? Or just kisssssed you…?

– She kissed me Alice. Fully kissed me and never pulled out.

– Oh, well then, she obviously cares about you.

– I don’t know Al, I don’t know…

Three days had passed and Shane had been very busy taking care of herself that she couldn’t even call Carmen. Alice had been staying with her since she left the hospital and Carmen would call her everyday to ask how was doing.

Although Shane knew Carmen talked with Alice she had never had the chance to talk to her and it was somehow worrying her. Carmen had kissed her and disappeared after that, leaving a very frustrated Shane.

– Hey Al

– Yo Shane, how you feeling today?

– I’m feeling great actually… in fact I was thinking if you mind taking me to Carmen’s…?

– God man, that woman is really doing things with you! Can’t you just stop thinking about her for a second? I mean-

– Come on Al! I’ll be just a second

– Listen, the doctor made pretty clear that you can not stay away from bed for more than an hour, so I don’t think is a pretty good idea…

– Well I don’t care Al, I’m feeling good today so I’m going-

– Hey! Shane! Dude if you’re not taking care of yourself then everything we’ve been doing the past days was in vain, I mean, seriously dude? Have you thought about-

– Al, Al, Al! Wait, I get your point, okay? I do, but I need to talk to her… I’m going out of my mind… I just need to know why… I mean, I wake up and think of her, I eat and think of her, god! I even think of her while taking a shower, I’m going nuts and all I want to do is kiss her again, even if that means being in the hospital again… I.. I…
