Chapter 48 - Fernando & Frank (1)

On the way home from the cemetery, Viona saw a crowd of people on the side of the road and it made her curious.

"What's wrong, Sir?" asked Viona quietly to the taxi driver who drove her home.

"It's nothing unusual, Miss. That is the most famous bar in the area and usually at this time the pimps there will make a special auction for the perverted men who want sleep with the most beautiful woman at the bar for one night, Miss," replied the taxi driver kindly

"Oh, "Viona muttered softly.

"Many women sell their bodies in the bar. Aound here, the sex workers openly sell themselves. Sometimes they even deliberately look for us taxi drivers, even though we don't have much money, if they are lacking money to buy clothes" said the taxi driver who heard Viona muttered to herself.

Viona swallowed when she heard the taxi driver's words. She felt sorry for the unlucky women who had to sell their bodies for money. Viona looked at the crowd through the mirror and saw several women dressed in super skimpy outfit dancing on a small stage to attract the attention of the men.

"Hey...I think I know some of them," Viona muttered to herself when she saw several women who were looked to her. But she couldn't remember where she saw them so finally she got rid of that thoughts from her head.

The taxi that took her, finally left the place towards Viona's apartment at high speed after getting out of the crowd near the bar earlier. Viona got off her taxi and chose to walk into the complex when they arrived by the gate. She enjoyed the night atmosphere on the path between the main road and her apartment complex. The lights looked neat when they fall on the ground which was covered with maple leaves.

After she arrived at her apartment building, Viona immediately got into the elevator which would take her to the 16th floor where her unit was located. She entered and walked casually to her room. The average occupants of apartment units in her buildings were students and office workers. So it was only natural that by 7pm the apartment was still very busy. It made her comfortable, because she hated silence.

After she placed her bag in her room, Viona washed up and got ready to sleep. She took her cellphone from the bag. It was not activated because the cellphone's battery ran out. 

Viona put her cellphone to be charged on the table. She then turned off the light in her room, leaving only one night lamp beside her bed. Since moving to England, Viona was not used to sleeping with bright lights and had carried this habit until now, even though in the past, when she was home, Viona was very afraid of the dark.

"Good night, mother and father," Viona said softly, kissing the frame of her parents' photo which she placed on the nightstand.

Since Viona went home, the hospital had become increasingly crowded because of the large number of patients who come for medical check-ups as a condition for entering work at the company, Frank, who was supposed to go home at 5 in the evening, had to stay behind until 7 pm.

"If I didn't need to keep up appearance, I wouldn't want to spend my time with these people," Frank muttered to himself in annoyance.

The junior doctors seemed even more in awe of Frank's skills. They respected him more and more.

"I finally finished. Gosh, I haven't seen Doctor Viona since this afternoon," said a nurse who was sitting in the doctor's rest room.

"I heard she asked to be replaced by doctor Lila," said another nurse.

"There is Doctor Lila, let's ask her," said a male doctor.

They then ran to doctor Lila who had just entered the room with Professor Frank. The woman was asking him questions nonstop.

"Wait a moment. What questions do you want me to answer?" Asked doctor Lila in a friendly manner.

"Is it true that Doctor Viona asked you to change her working hours because she is going on a date?" Asked the male doctor to her.

"Why did you even ask that question? It's none of your business, you know that, right? Besides, if Doctor Viona is dating, it's okay because she is still single, right?" replied Doctor Lila with a friendly smile.

"Wow, that means the rumor is true! Okay tomorrow we give a double surprise to Doctor Viona," said a nurse who was Viona's assistant nurse every time she performed surgery.

"Thank you Doctor Lila for the information," said the three people simultaneously then went to the locker to change clothes because it was already time for them to go home.

Doctor Lila just shook her head seeing the nurses' behavior. In the meantime, next to Doctor Lila was Professor Frank who looked very angry when he heard their conversation. His blood boiled when he finds out that Viona was dating someone.

"How could you betray me, Viona?" Frank said to himself. He then accelerated his footsteps towards the changing room.

When Frank was about to leave the hospital, a handsome man was seen standing beside his car playing with his cellphone.

"What are you doing here?" Frank asked Fernando who was staring at him.

"What do you think? Come on, don't be a boring old man. Go with me for a drink. I will pay for the drink and the woman," said Fernando with a broad smile.

He then walked to his car which was parked next to Frank's car. Seeing that Frank did not enter, he finally sounded the horn repeatedly so that Frank got in immediately.

Fernando's way was successful because Frank then walked into his car. After Frank got into the car, he sped at high speed towards a hotel that had the best bar in town. The women there were also the best bitches who reportedly were also the mistresses of well-known businessmen that wanted to keep their affairs private.

"Come on down!!" Fernando said excitedly as soon as his car arrived at the basement parking area which was reserved for bar visitors.

Frank only smiled thinly seeing Fernando so excited. He watched the bar in front of him. Sky Blue Bar was a rival to his Rainbow Bar. Frank saw the interior and layout of the Blue Sky Bar without blinking as he was watching his business rival.

"It turns out that all of the women here are of the number 1 quality," Frank muttered softly when he met the Sky Blue Bar ladies.

"I didn't know this is your favorite playground, Bro," Frank said quiping Fernando, who was already surrounded by several beautiful women dressed in sexy clothes.

"Ha ha, please don't talk too much. Come join me, choose as many women as you want. Today I'm happy," shouted Fernando while drinking his drink that was given by the woman beside him.

"Okay, I won't hesitate," Frank said with a sly smile. His smile made Fernando surprised because it had been a long time since he saw that smile come out of his younger brother's face.

"Apparently, you still have a soul, Frank," Fernando said to himself when he saw his younger brother kissing a woman with red hair who had just arrived.
