Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Anna was not busy recently. So, she visited Emily in the hospital every day at noon with the food she made.

When Anna walked into the ward, she frowned, glanced around, and asked, “Ryan is not here? Has he ever visited you lately?”

Emily replied, “He’s actually been here a few times. He generally comes at night because our drill isn’t finished yet. I don’t have to participate in it because we discovered a drug den. But they put Ryan in charge of this and made him write all the paperwork. He has a lot of work ahead of him, so he’s super busy.”

When Anna realized Emily was speaking for Ryan, she sighed and shook her head. “You’re too sweet and thoughtful, Emily. Here, have some chicken soup.”

Anna opened the lunchbox, poured the chicken soup into a bowl, and handed it to Emily.

“Anna, your boyfriend is a lucky guy;” Emily commented as she took the bowl.

“Why?” Anna asked in amazement.

“Because you’re such an excellent cook! If | wasn’t straight, I’d surely fall for you.”

“Really? Then why don’t you go on a date with a chef?”

Emily froze, realizing what she had just said was silly. When Anna noticed she was genuinely thinking about it, she giggled and turned on the TW.
