Unexpected Encounter: A Second Chance at Love

"If you still feel uncomfortable, let's go to the hospital," Andrew suggested as he sat beside her.

"It's okay, I feel much better now." She leaned her back against him. "I slept so much but I still feel tired."

"Sleep more then." He kissed the top of her head. "I'll go to visit grandma after sometime." Since he was away for a long time, he hadn't seen grandma Collins for a long time though Rachael had video called him a couple of times when she visited her.

"She was asking about you when I visited her a couple of days ago."

Just then someone knocked at the door.

Andrew got down from the bed and unlocked the door.

"Hey—" Owen grinned.

"What are you doing here?" Andrew frowned.

"What kind of a question is that?" he scoffed. "I am here to see my beautiful sister-in-law." Ignoring the stern expression on his face, Owen squeezed his way inside.

Rachael sat up straight when she saw Owen.

"Hey, I heard you are sick so I am here to see you," Owen remarked. "How are you feeling now?"

"I am fine now."

"Here, I bought some chocolates and snacks for you." He kept it on the bed. "Elsa always craved for them so I figured out you would like the same thing too."

"Oh you didn't have to—" Rachael smiled and received his gift. Though her condition couldn't be considered sick, she still felt very touched. "Thank you so much."

"You don't have to thank me, that's the least I can do," Owen smiled.

"Alright now tell her why you are really here." Andrew sat beside Rachael.

When Owen did not say anything, he raised his brows. "Are you telling or should I tell her?"

"What is going on?" The silent interaction between the two men confused her a lot.

Just then Elsa and Justin entered the room.

"Rach, are you fine?" Elsa quickly approached her in panic.

"Y-Yes I am fine." Rachael placed her hand on hers. "Are you fine?" She looked very pale and scared.

Elsa pursed her lips and glared at her brother, who just rolled his eyes at him. "You are f*ucking dead—"

As she was about to attack Owen, Justin grabbed her waist. "Alright, let's not create a scene here. Rachael still doesn't look very well."

"What is going on?" Andrew inquired.

"Owen messaged me saying that Rachael is terribly sick and she passed out in the washroom." Elsa gritted her teeth and threw her purse at Owen. "How could you lie about something like that? I was so worried."

Swiftly catching the bag before it could even touch him, Owen scoffed, "Both of you wouldn't receive my call. What was I supposed to do? And moreover what were you both doing?"

Without waiting for their reply, he scoffed, "Never mind, the hickey's on your neck is screaming the answer on your behalf."

Justin awkwardly cleared his throat and stated, "We got back together."

"So does that mean you are again the guy who is doing our little sister?" Andrew said with a straight face.

To which Justin nodded. "I am afraid so."

"Congratulations," Rachael exclaimed. "I am so happy for you both."

"Alright alright let's save the congratulations for later—" Owen looked at Rachael and said, "Rach, you are so beautiful and I know you have a cotton candy heart."

"You are such an a*ss licker," Elsa scoffed.

Ignoring her, Owen quickly approached Rachael and sat beside her. "Firstly, I would like you to know that I just have two friends—Justin and Andrew. Since I don't have a girlfriend—"

"He just has multiple banging partners everywhere," Justin interrupted him.

"Don't listen to them," Owen remarked. "They are just jealous of my single life."

Without giving her a chance to say anything, he continued, "So basically I have no one but these two idiots in my life."

"Cut the chase Owen, Rachael needs to rest and I have to visit grandma." Andrew reminded him. He never liked it when someone unnecessarily dragged the conversation.

"There is an expo which we three had planned to attend together. It was supposed to be held a month back but it got postponed to next month." Owen grabbed Rachael's hand. "Can you please let Andrew go?"

Rachael: " "

When had she ever stopped him? Rachael was speechless.

"Until you say 'YES', Andrew will not go." Owen started requesting her. "Please, I really want to go there but I don't wanna go by myself."

"Stop it—" Andrew slapped his hand away. "I told you already that I don't wanna go."

"Me too, we just came back yesterday. How can we leave again?" Justin had already been away from Edward for a long time and now since things had become normal with Elsa again, he was more reluctant to go anywhere without them.

"Where is it?" Rachael inquired.

"London." Andrew, Justin and Owen answered unanimously.

"That sounds fun." She looked at Andrew. "Why don't you wanna go?"

"I just came home, you want me to leave again?" When she shook her head, he said, "This is why I am not going."

"It's just for three f*ucking days," Owen yelled. "Can't you two keep your d*icks inside your pants and stay away from your partners for three days?"

"Why don't we all go together?" Elsa suggested.

"What?" Owen frowned.

"I mean, Andrew and Rachael haven't taken a trip after their marriage. It has been a long time since we took Edward out on a trip and it is a nice chance for us to take a trip as a group."

Andrew thought for a while before looking at Rachael. "What do you think ?"

"I don't have a problem with it if Owen agrees."

Contemplating for a while, Owen frowned, "So Rachael and Andrew will always be together, Justin and Elsa will never leave each other—What the f*uck am I supposed to do? Who will I hang out?"

"Edward," All four of them said unanimously.

Owen: " "
