BECOME AN ANTAGONIST

After putting the infusion on Lara, the doctor and nurse came home. Everyone seems to be worried about Lara.
"Come out, I'll take care of him" Phoenix said.
"No, I'll be here until my sister comes to her senses" Velvet replied.
"You haven't had dinner yet, honey," said Damon.
"How can I eat seeing it like this" Velvet said with tears in her eyes.
"You didn't look after him properly, Phoenix," Velvet upset.
"Yes, you're right. I made it like this" Phoenix replied, still near Lara's head.
"I'll make the calculations with you later" Velvet said.

An hour later, Rocco-Damon's son appears to have entered the room to call her mother.
"Mom, daddy called mommy" Rocco said.
"Mommy hasn't had dinner yet" Rocco continued as the mother remained silent.
"Darling, let's eat first. Maybe Lara is asleep right now." Galy held Velvet's hand.
Velvet finally nodded and let go of Lara's hand.
"Take care of her" Velvet told Phoenix, who was lying next to Lara.
Phoenix did not reply and only noticed Lara's face that was no longer pale. His face and hands are starting to warm up.
After everything came out, Phoenix rubbed Lara's arm and grabbed her shoulder and put her head on her arm.
"I'm sorry. I hurt you many times. I don't understand you, Honey." said Phoenix.
"All right, I'll follow all your will. I chose you and our baby. I don't want to lose you both" whispered Phoenix with her hand still wiping Lara's arm.
Eventually, Phoenix fell asleep hugging Lara.
2 hours later, Lara woke up and began to blink her eyes. He held his slightly pusiing head.
Lara's body movements made Phoenix wake up from her deep sleep.
"You awake?" ask Phoenix slowly.
"What's wrong with me? Did I fall asleep in the car?" ask Lara.
Then Lara saw her hand that was attached to the infusion.
"The doctor suggested you don't work for a while." Phoenix caressed Lara's cheek.
Lara closed her eyes again because she felt dizzy.
"My head is so dizzy" said Lara.
Then Phoenix got out of bed and took the medicine on the nightstand. Before that, Phoenix helped Lara to sit down then gave her one pill as well as a glass of water.
"Drink," Phoenix said.
Lara took the medicine and returned to lay her head on her cushion.
"I'll get you something to eat. You haven't had dinner yet, honey." Phoenix looked down and kissed Lara's lips back.
"Hmm, I'm so hungry" Lara replied very slowly.
Phoenix smiled and walked out of the room.
"He's up?" ask Velvet who is still in the living room with the others.
"Yes, I'll get him some food for him" Phoenix said.
"Let me get it" Velvet said and headed straight to the dining room to get some food for Lara.
"Sleep everything. Lara is fine" Phoenix told family members.
"Mommy will meet him first" said Galy and went inside followed by Willow-the son-in-law.
"You okay, honey?" Galy held Lara's hand.
"Yes, Mom. Sorry to worry you guys," Lara replied in a soft voice.
"Lara, never keep your emotions alone. You can share it with us." Willow rubbed Lara's arm and sat down beside her.
Lara nodded and smiled faintly.
Shortly after, Velvet arrives to bring food for Lara.
"I'll bribe you, you naughty girl." Velvet sat down next to Lara as Willow moved from there.
"Sorry, make you worry. Let the Phoenix feed me. It's been a very night. You must be tired" said Lara.
"No, Lara. I'll make sure you finish your food first and you can sleep." Velvet smiled and began to feed Lara.
Phoenix was to the left of Lara and helped Lara to sit down.
