• Chapter Sixteen •

Priscilla left the hospital less tired than usual, the shift had been easy. The brunette went to her car, and she came across a certain brunette leaning against the passenger door.

- I don't remember offering you a ride... - She said opening the car.

- My fiancee is at your house with my car... I'm too tired to walk, and since we're going to the same place... - Lauren said getting into the vehicle.

- Are you staying at home?

- Can I? Just a little... -The brunette had a pious look.

Priscilla smiled.

- You can, Laur, but it won't stay the day there, right?

- No, you'll have your time alone with Natalie.

- The brunette spoke with a small smile in the her face.

The brunette rolled her eyes and concentrated on taking the car from the parking space.

- Pri... Can I ask you something? - The brunette said after a while of silence.

He can. What was it? - The brunette asked, imagining it was about the disease.

- You know that... In a little while, this won't be a secret anymore, right? Like... - The brunette was cut by Priscilla.

- I know, I know that in a little while it won't be a secret, and I know that I'll have to stop operating and then even work here... But I'm fine now, and for now, I'm going away with this. - The brunette said quietly.

- Hmm, can I ask you something else?

Priscilla took her eyes off the street for a moment and smiled at her friend.

- Go Laur.

- You... tried to look for... Suellen? - The brunette asked carefully.

Priscilla seemed taken aback by the question and was silent until she stopped at a red light.

The brunette turned to her friend, who was waiting patiently.

No...

And why not?

Priscilla sighed.

I don't know... I haven't seen her for... A long, long time.

And yes, I want to know how she is... Mainly now, but I also don't know what to expect... We'll look like two strangers talking... - She spoke as she drove the car into the garage from your apartment. - I don't know what I want to do...

- Well... You know that regardless of what you decide, I'll be with you right?

- Yes I know.

They were silent for a moment, until Priscilla remembered something as they went to the elevator.

- Have you ever stopped to think about the bachelor party I'm preparing for you? - The brunette asked with a dirty look, making the green eyes beside her to look curious and at the same time afraid of the answer.

Oh no. Don't even come, no farewell, I'm fine as I am. I've had my share of drunks for a lifetime, I don't need a goodbye. - Lauren crossed her arms.

Priscilla smiled and opened her apartment door. The brunette was going to continue talking to Lauren, but the image of Natalie in the kitchen surprised her.

- Naty? What are you doing awake?

The more smiled at the two doctors before answering.

- Chris called me very early today... He still didn't understand that the time difference is six hours apart... Then, I couldn't go back to sleep… - She explained with a shrug.

- Ah, hey Náh, Laur refuses to have a bachelorette party. -The brunette spoke, throwing her bag on the table and sitting next to Natalie on the sofa.

- Why Laur? - The brunette asked, smiling.

- Because I don't trust Priscilla…- She spoke as if it were obvious. - Natalie, where's Camz and Kristen?

- In Priscilla's room - Natalie replied. Lauren left the room heading towards her friend's room. - Will they have lunch here?

- I don't know, I think so... It seems that they don't have their own house. - The brunette complained.

- Okay, I don't think there's anything to make lunch, and I can go to the nearby market after Mila wakes up.- Natalie offered.

- I'll go with you. - Priscilla said, already getting up, paying the bag again.

- No Pri, you just arrived from a shift.

I'm not tired, come on. - The brunette pulled Natalie off the couch and held her waist.

They went all the way to the market insilence.

Priscilla was thinking about the person Lauren had brought up earlier. It had been a while since she saw Suellen, a long time. She wanted to know how her older sister was doing, she just didn't want to be disappointed. If Suellen wanted to know about the brunette, she would have already come looking for her for a long time, priscilla was not an invisible person. She was a renowned doctor known for much of the country. priscilla did not want to look for the woman, for fear. Afraid of being rejected, Afraid to know how she was doing, and Afraid to know why Suellen had never been after her.

- All right Pri? - Natalie asked, snapping Priscilla out of her reverie.

It had been about five minutes since they had arrived at the market and Priscilla was still sitting.

- Everything. - She replied vaguely.

Natalie didn't even try to pursue the subject, she knew it was futile to try to take something away from Priscilla.

The two entered the market and bought things quickly.

Before long, they were back in the car.

Again, the path was taken in silence.

***

It was after three in the afternoon when Lauren, Camila and Kristen left. Priscilla hadn't slept,but she didn't feel so tired.

The brunette was upstairs in her apartment, sitting and looking at the piano in front of her, she didn't know if she could still play it. Is it over there he put his hands on the keyboards and took a deep breath.

It had been at least three years since she had at least entered that room of the apartment.

But now, the notes came out all right, creating a calm melody.

Priscilla smiled unconsciously. She was a doctor, but music was her passion since she was little.

The brunette closed her eyes and began to sing along to the piano notes.

Natalie was standing in the doorway silently, a huge smile on her lips. she hoped that Priscilla finished and approached the brunette.

- Her voice is perfect. - She Said sitting next to the brunette, who was startled by the presence of the brunette but she smiled the next moment.

- I didn't know you sang. - And... It's a secret talent... It's been a while since I sing... - Priscilla said, her hands still on the keys of the instrument.

- And why did you come to sing today? - The brunette asked, interested.

- A lot on my mind... The music helps me. - Priscilla spoke with her head down.

- And do you want to talk? - Natalie asked, taking advantage of the brunette's guard being down.

Priscilla lifted her head and looked into the brown eyes that gazed at her fondly.

The brunette remembered when she and Lauren were younger, her friend had said something to her about ten seconds of courage.

That's what she did at that moment. Ten seconds.

And she didn't need even five of them to join her lips with Natalie's in a kiss that made her feel more alive than ever. calm and passionate.
