Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 271

Just then, the door opened to reveal Noah.

"I'm here," he stated with a smile.

Finally being able to see him, Carla smiled and extended her hand to him.

She asked, "Noah, are you all right? Did you get injured?"

Noah looked at the woman who was still worried about him despite everything that he had done to her. He took her hand and smiled bitterly, "I'm all right. My injuries were just external and shallow."

Andrea looked at Noah and Carla, smiling. She stood up and said, "Noah, stay here and take care of Carla. I'm going to buy some food."

"Okay, we'll be here," Noah said while he promptly nodded.

After Andrea left, Carla lay down on the hospital bed and stared at her leg which was being held up by bandages from the ceiling. She asked, "Noah, would I be able to walk again in the future?"

"What are you talking about? Of course, you would! It's just a fracture. Besides, you're still so young. As long as you take good care of yourself, your leg will recover soon," Noah answered with a smile. And then he took an apple from the table and helped her peel it.

"Really? Okay, I believe you," she said as she smiled at him. She watched him peel the apple but after a while, she asked, "Noah, what relationship did we have before?" It was apparent that she was confused. She could not remember anything right then, so she could only ask him. She added, "Why is it that the only thing I could remember from the accident was that I held you in my arms for a long time? Besides that, I couldn't remember anything. Why was I so afraid that you will get injured at that time?"

Hearing her words, Noah thought of what she said when the accident was about to happen.

"You saved me before, so it's my turn to save you now!"

When Noah remained quiet, Carla tried again, "Why don't you answer me? Are we... a couple?" Seeing that Noah was stunned by her words, Carla continued, "If we're not a couple, why did I want to protect you so much at that time?"

Noah finished peeling the apple then he cut it into small pieces. After which, he picked up a piece with a toothpick and held it in front of her mouth.

"We are not a couple yet,"

Noah finally answered her.

Carla ate the apple that he gave her and then she looked at him. She thought that maybe she liked him but he didn't like her. That would explain why she was so nervous when he was in danger.

Seeing Noah's expression right then, she confirmed her hunch that Noah didn't like her.

So she understood why Noah said that they were not a couple yet. He didn't like her so they were just friends.

But she couldn't figure out why Noah didn't like her, so she asked, "Why? Is it because I'm younger than you? Oh! That reminds me, how old am I now? Where is my ID card?" She couldn't even remember her own age right then.
