Chapter 13ETHAN My head still bangs like crazy but I feel better after taking the medication she gave me and I really don't know why I wanted her to stay with me but I just couldn't couldn't bear the thoughts of being left alone ." You should sleep Ethan so you can feel better " she advised and I nodded gently ."Or should I sing for you ?" She asked and I stared at her with shock evident on my face .I know there's something peculiar about her voice but I've never imagined she could sing .I nodded gently , she hesitated for a while and I could sense she's nervous ." Why are you nervous? It's not like you want to perform on a stage and trust me I don't mind even if you sound badly " I said chuckling lightly ." Seeing as you are making a joke I think you feel better I think I should take my leave ‘’. She responded and I immediately let out a fake cough pretending to be feeling pains in my chest .“I know it’s fake Ethan “ she replied smiling and I pouted my mouth childishly .“ p
CLAIRE I knocked for the upteenth time without response so I tried pushing the door and it creaked open . '' Ethan ? Ethan ?" I called gently trying to navigate through thee house to look for him .Instead of the typical house that most rich people stay it looks basic , it is a big space but it seems empty like a regular average person's home and traveling back to the kind of ice cold relationship he has with his dad it's easy to conclude he's the black sheep of the house ." Ethan !" I screamed immediately I saw his semi lifeless body on the floor ." Ethan ?" I called and he opened his eyelids gently , I checked for his temperature and he is big degrees hot and he's also shivering .He has fever ! '' let's go to the hospital " I said trying to help him up ." No ....not the hospital " he protested weakly ." No Ethan you're really sick and you need to be treated " " Please....don't " he begged weakly and I gave up .I need to first bring down his temperature , I ransacked his wa
PHILIP I let out an uncomfortable smile when she introduced us, I have always liked it when she told others I am her best friend but that title didn't sit well with me today and the little smile on the guy's face proves what I'm thinking right ." I'm Ethan ....not swine " he said stretching out his hand for an handshake while glaring at Claire while she sticked out her tongue at him .I took his hand and we shook hands gently ." It's nice meeting you " I responded No it's not!" I'll see you tomorrow kid and take care of your broken leg " he traded and waved at me as he returned to the cab. " Yeah whatever " Claire responded .I linked arms with her and helped her inside the house ." Claire what's wrong with your leg ? " Gran gran asked with worry evident on her face." It's nothing much gran gran , I just fell and hit my leg " she responded .I helped her into her room gently and helped her sit comfortably on her bed ." Thank you " she whispered and I chuckled softly ." You'
CLAIRE He stormed out of the ward. I bowed to greet his parents, and without waiting to hear their response, I hurriedly rushed after him. "Ethan! Ethan! Wait!" I yelled while rushing after him, but he kept going, God knows where.Frustrating!"Ethan!" I yelled again, and I hit my leg and fell to the ground. "Ouch!" I yelled, realizing I had bruised my leg.Ouch!He paused and ran to where I was on the floor. "Why do you always cause trouble and get yourself injured?" he half-yelled, concern evident in his voice.So caring!"That's rich coming from someone who just forcefully discharged himself," I replied, rolling my eyes at him."Can you stand?" he asked, ignoring my response. I opened my mouth to say something but decided against it and just nodded instead.He helped me up gently and grabbed my arm slowly as we walked towards the hospital's pharmacy.Aww, sweet gesture!ETHAN After getting her bruises disinfected, she started limping in a manner that made me laugh. "Ooops, someon
ETHAN I opened my eye lids gently unsure of where I am but the sudden scream from a familiar voice woke me up ." Mom ?" I called gently " He's awake ! My son ! How do you feel ? What happened ?'' she asked touching me all over just to make sure I'm fine. I grabbed her hand gently and she paused her actions ." I'm okay mom .... please help me sit up " I responded finding it hard to do it on my own." No no you can't do that yet , you still need to rest for a while '' she responded shaking her head in disagreement. " Mom I need to ......" " The boy said he wants to sit up let him sit up " another very familiar husky voice responded .I looked up to see the presence I didn't notice was in the room and he has that cold stare on .My mum obeyed gently and helped me sit up , I held onto my head with my left hand as I felt a throbbing sharp pain in my head and I grunted with distress .Silence took over but I know that's definitely not the end , that man always have something to say .
CLAIREMy heart raced as I saw Ethan crumple to the ground, his body lying still where the plank had struck him. Panic surged through me, and I rushed to his side. “Ethan! Are you okay?” I knelt beside him, my voice trembling. His eyes fluttered open, and he groaned in pain. “Why did you have to be so stubborn?” he muttered through gritted teeth. “I-I thought I could handle them ,” I said, my hands shaking as I checked him over for injuries. “Why did you come after me?” I asked .Ethan winced as he tried to sit up. “You’re not exactly subtle when you’re in trouble. And don’t think this means I’m going to be nice to you or anything.” Despite his words, I could see the concern in his eyes. I pulled out my phone and called for an ambulance, unable to shake the image of him getting hit. “Just hold on, okay? Help is coming.” Ethan looked at me, his expression softer than usual. “You really know how to cause a scene, don’t you?” I managed a weak smile despite my worry. “Well, I
