Chapter 203 - A stupid and rude man (2/2)

”Mika, please. Stop ignoring me like this.” Her voice quivered as she begged desperately.

The grip on the steering wheel loosen a bit and Mika no longer had the stubborn look on her face. But she still refused to say anything, afraid that once she opened her mouth, she would hurt Ryn's feeling. She was so furious at Jeremy for ruining her mood.

At a time like this, she wished she was the only child, just like Ryn. Ryn must be happy not be ordered around by any sibling and she could do anything she wanted.

”I know you are mad at Jeremy right now. I am too. He can be stupid sometimes and just not he is just being stupid and rude,” Ryn started again, weaving her words carefully.

Mika listened but did not say anything.

”But he loves you, Mika. He will never hurt you or make you in pain, right?”

Still quiet from Mika's side.

”Remember how worried he was when you had an accident and had to undergo the operation?” Ryn reminded. Of course, she herself did not want to remember those painful time but in order to coax Mika and break her from her 'world', she had to do this.

”Hmm...”

Finally, there was an answer from Mika. A reaction from her regardless of how small it was but a reaction nonetheless. It was an improvement from the silent treatment Ryn received for several minutes before.

Ryn blew out a silent sigh secretly. She was relieved now but she could not celebrate so soon.

”Did you know he never failed to come to visit you even though he was busy at work and remember, he did have to cover your work too during your hospitalized,” Ryn pointed out.

”Hmm...”

”Of course that bulldog ruined his image by urging you to work quickly even though you just got discharged from the hospital,” Ryn crossed her arms and frowned unhappily.

The grip on the steering wheel tightened back. Mika almost forgot about that. How could her big brother do that to her! She was the baby in the family. The princess. She should be spoiled rotten by everyone!

”How's the scar? Have you finished all the magic cream that you gave me last time?” Ryn suddenly changed the topic.

It was time for Mika to frown. Scar? She glanced down quickly and pursed her lips a bit. Although she sometimes felt weak, the pills the hospital provided did help a lot for her to continue her life without worry. And the magic cream Ryn mentioned about was slathered thickly around the scar. It was still fresh and she was a bit worried to slather the cream on it.

”I think it heals well.”

”Good. When is your next appointment? I'll clear my schedule for you,” Ryn said absent-mindedly but it broke huge grin on Mika's face.

”Really? You are going to accompany me to see the doctor? Really, Ryn? You would do that for me?” The questions came without stopping but luckily for Ryn, all was the same. Ryn smiled seeing the eagerness in Mika's face and voice.

”Of course. You are my best friend,” Ryn patted Mika's thigh to show her sincerity. She was glad that Mika no longer angry. She was happy to see Mika smiling happily now.

Mika nodded.

”Focus on your driving. Later, you can send me the date,” Ryn did not want Mika to get distracted while driving.

”Hmm...”

Now, the car's speed was reduced to what it was supposed to be, which made Ryn so glad she asked the question.

”Oh no,” Mika suddenly gasped when Ryn was celebrating her successfulness in her mind.

Ryn looked at Mika questioningly.

”We need to hurry or we'll be late for our dinner,” Mika cried in distress.

Uh oh...

Ryn's eyes looked at the speedometer while its number getting bigger and bigger in such a short time. Ryn gulped nervously. Not again.

This time, ignoring what Mika would think of her, Ryn's hands reached to hold at the dashboard. She did not like this. One of these days they would get into an accident, Ryn thought unhappily.

”Slow down a bit. It's okay if we're a bit late,” she cried.

Mika ignored her. She skillfully weaved between the cars in order to get to the restaurant in record time.

Ryn's eyes widened in horror all the way.
