Chapter 236: Isn't the brother coming?

Mariana remained in the hospital for a few days, during which Leopoldo came from time to time to visit

her, but on each occasion he only said a few words of greeting, asked the doctor about the status of Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

the injury and the healing, and left in a hurry, not knowing what he was busy with.

There was not the slightest trace of him left in the room, and coupled with the fact that Diana came to

the hospital from time to time to pretend to visit, saying she was comforting him but really meant to

show off, it all made his mood cool again.

Only Ana's company gave her some comfort, but Ana's free time was limited after all, and Mariana was

still a bit depressed.

That day, two unusual guests arrived in the room, which surprised Mariana a little.

Shakily holding an apple at her side, Mariana carefully peeled it with a fruit knife. The peeled peels fell

into the trash can beside the bed piece by piece, making tapping noises from time to time, which

seemed a bit abrupt in the silence of the room.

At that moment there was a small click as the lock was turned and the door to the room was pushed

open.

Unconsciously drawn to turn her head to look, Mariana's hands moved with a jerk, and the sharp knife

blade almost cut her fingers, startling her.

-President Gisela?

President Gisela was carrying two boxes of cakes in her hand, and seemed a bit tense at the time.

Entering limply on her crutches, followed by the animated Dinah, Gisela smiled kindly and said with

concern.

-Mari, are you better?

Hearing these words, Mariana felt warmth in her heart. President Gisela's concern warmed her heart.

He struggled to get out of bed to help her sit up, but was prevented. Dinah ran animatedly to his

bedside, pulled the covers tightly around him and said.

-Sister, you mustn't get out of bed now! Grandma said you have to rest when you are sick, so don't

move, behave yourself!

Dina behaved very well. Although she was very small, she had to pretend to be an adult in order to

teach him. This scene warmed her heart very much.

The corners of her mouth curved slightly, and Mariana responded.

-Yes.

She reached up and touched Dina's head. The girl's hair was very soft and from time to time a few

strands fell on her forehead. Mariana reached up to help her hold it behind her ear.

The girl looked at her with a smile on her face, her bright eyes seemed to hide little stars, and said.

-Sister, you are so beautiful!

President Gisela watched from the side, with a kind look on her face. Mariana said shyly.

-You too.

After inquiring about the children in the orphanage, President Gisela said that there was nothing

serious and that the children were healthy.

-Mari, you are very kind.

However, President Gisela wanted to say more but hesitated.

Grabbing the doll, Dina threw herself on the bed, sinking her cheeks into the snow-white bed, and

abruptly raised her head innocently.

-Why don't I see the brother? Hasn't the brother come?

There was a momentary silence in the room, and President Gisela felt a little embarrassed by her

words.

She slowly lowered her head, thinking about Leopoldo's attitude in the last few days, which seemed to

have become much colder, and Mariana's face looked dark.

President Gisela said nothing, or perhaps she did not know what to say now, it was not her place to get

involved as an outsider. Even if she was naive, Dina noticed that Mariana's face did not look very good

at that moment, and she spoke hesitantly.

-Did I... make the sister unhappy?

-No, I just thought of something.

Mariana comforted the young woman.

Although it was not entirely appropriate, President Gisela looked at Mariana's haggard appearance with

some concern and finally could not help but advise her.

-Cheer up, you still have a future ahead of you.

-I'm fine, Grandma.

Smiling with a bit of trance, Mariana nodded her head.

Dina lay on the edge of the bed and tried to sleep. Mariana gently stroked the girl's back and asked her

with concern.

-The children in the orphanage, are they well? Are there any shortages?

-At the moment there are no shortages, all the children miss you very much and think of you from time

to time.

President Gisela helped her sort the quilt with kind eyes.

-When they found out you were sick, everyone rushed to come visit you, but it wasn't very safe with so

many children away, so I didn't accept, and now, everyone says I'm a cheapskate.

President Gisela laughed and joked.

-It seems I'm not as popular as the young girls.

Mariana smiled.

-Hey, now that I'm old, I don't remember things anymore, I almost forgot.

As if remembering something, President Gisela pulled some drawing papers out of her pocket and

handed them to him.

-The children also drew you a picture.

-Really?

Mariana took them and looked at them. The pictures on the papers were all the children of the

orphanage, the president and her, like a cartoon picture, full of warmth.

-I'll go keep the children company when I have the chance another day," said Mariana, folding the

painting and putting it away.

Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, it was almost dusk. The sun shone on Mariana's

beautiful face through the half-covered window, Dina woke up, and President Gisela had to leave.

Shortly after leaving, Leopoldo arrived at the hospital, but did not visit Mariana in her ward, but, as

usual, consulted the doctor to see how she was healing and left in a hurry after learning that nothing

was wrong.

Mariana did not know that Leopoldo had been here and slept in a daze in the hospital for two more

days. The doctor informed her that she could leave the hospital. She packed up and took a cab to the

welfare home to visit the children.

The orphanage was still the same as before, a rare peace and quiet in a bustling city. The sound of

children playing could be heard in the orphanage, where they could loosen all their knots, relax and

enjoy the joy of childhood.

As soon as Mariana entered, she saw the president Gisela taking a nap in a wicker armchair while the

children were playing on the side.

-Is Dad home?

-I'm the dad!

A little girl came running up and tugged at Mariana's coat, lifting her head and saying pitifully.

-Sister, do you want to be the mother?

Just as she was about to accept, the whistle of a car outside the courtyard sounded. President Gisela,

who was on the couch, woke up and sat up to see Mariana.

-Help me move things around here.

A lovely, familiar voice rang out as Mariana lifted her legs and headed for the door.

"It's really Diana - why is she here?"

Diana wore an expensive fishtail dress, like a guest walking across the stage. She carried her bag in

her left hand, walking to the front, followed by a group of people holding large cameras and kept taking

pictures all around. When the camera panned to Diana's face, she immediately showed a warm and

charming expression, smiling more cordially. She did not seem to see Mariana.

-Mari, you are here.

The dean's voice sounded behind her ears and reached her ears.

She turned around and President Gisela approached step by step with her crutches. He stepped

forward to support her and asked.

-Grandma, what is this?

He shook his head gently. President Gisela's face was also puzzled,

-I don't know what they are doing here, but the day before yesterday that girl also came to our

orphanage. She bought some gifts for the children and left again.
