Burning Passion: Love Never Die
âTrust you?â Carlos stopped.
âI wanted to trust you. But someone saw you taking the pill.â
Debbie couldnât believe her ears.
âReally? Who? Where did I take the pill? Esastin Villa? I just took it once!â
Carlos reached out his hand and stroked her face while asking, âItâs been years. But you still canât
forget him, right?â
Her gut feeling told her that he was referring to Hayden.
âGod, you just wonât Let that go. I broke up with Hayden years ago, and I-â
Withdrawing his hand, Carlos interrupted her.
âI didnât even say who I was referring to, butâ¦â Disappointment was written all over his face.
Debbie was at a loss for words.
Carlos left the hospital, but Debbie didnât. She insisted on having another test.
They got the results quickly. When Debbie saw the papers, Carlos had just been gone for half an hour.
The doctor pointed to a graph and said, âMrs. Hilton, this index suggests that youâve been taking birth
control pills a lot. Not once, not twice⦠How could you not know about it?â Obviously, he didnât believe
what Debbie said.
âA lot?â
Debbie was dumbstruck.
She sat on the bench in the corridor for a long time, papers in her hands. She really couldnât figure it
out. âIs there a possibility that the food I ate had some of the same ingredients?â she thought.
She went to the doctor and asked him about that. The doctor said, âEven if some shady vendors
powered the pills and sprinkled them onto vegetables and fruits to make them grow faster and you
happened to have eaten them, the index still wouldnât be that high. We can only conclude you have
been taking the pills frequently.
When a sad and dejected Debbie walked out of the hospital, Emmett was waiting for her.
Upon seeing her, he trotted towards her and asked, âDebbie, are you alright?â
Instead of answering his question, she asked, âWhereâs Carlos?â
With an embarrassed smile, Emmett stammered, âCarlos. had something he had to deal with. He
asked me to drive you back hom
âCarlos left instead of waiting for me, â Debbie thought, heartbroken and sad. She folded the papers,
stuck them into her pocket, and reached out her hand.
âEmmett, give me the car keys. I can drive myself home.
Youâre free. Do whatever you want.â
âIâm available now. Why not let me drive?â Emmett offered as he could tell something was not right with
her.
