Chapter 22
She slowly took a piece of the pear with her shivering hands, "What do you mean?" She asked me
curiously after done chewing the pear.
I smiled even more with her curious looking face that I found it, cute. "Well, you help me finish my
assignments. And then, you feel sick because you spend the night to finish them." Then moved my
eyes away from her down to the floor as soon as the guilty feeling surrounded me. “I feel so terrible for
you, actually."
"Hey....*coughs*...don't say like that. I'm so glad that I can help you, Nathan."
"But you're sick now..."
"It's okay...I'm fine now." She replied.
I sighed. "No, you're not yet. Just stay here on the bed. Rest until you fully recover. Don't worry
about me, I can handle myself."
She lied down on her bed again, and I helped her to pull the blanket up to cover her cold body and
made sure it was comfortable enough for the poor Bella.
"I'm sorry for troubling you, Nathan," She murmured as her eyes slowly closed.
"Rest well," I gently squeezed her warm hand before made my mind to leave her to take a rest.
I went outside of the room and headed towards the living room downstairs to clean all the messed
up that I made and also around our apartment. I even washed the dishes, which I really did not notice
that she made me a spaghetti last night. Plus, I even washed a pile of my dirty clothes which I never
did myself before. My mom should be proud of me though if she happened to see me right now.
I’m changing to be a better person now.
Besides, I have troubled Bella so much since we got married last week. Man, I'm so a bad person,
right? She must be tired all this time, cleaning the whole apartment, even make sure to prepare meals
for me.
Oh god....I already broke my promised to treat her better. I guess I just made her as my servant,
while I am enjoying myself, playing games and messing up our apartment and did stupid things.
Nathan Harrison is so badly selfish person.
This is not like my mom wanted, to treat, to treat women better no matter she is your friend or
stranger. I should change that too. I need to treat her more better. Yeah…I will do that.
I went to my room to finish my assignments which were still left behind and for your record, I did
skip the whole day class at a very first day after the semester break.
That’s so cool and I didn’t skip it for nothing, I skipped it so I could be with Bella to take care of her
while she was sick.
It took me several hours for me to finally finished with my assignment and arghh.....I'm so sleepy
now!!!
I stretched a bit and took a quick glance at my phone screen.
Oh great, it's already past 10 o'clock now.
I need to go to sleep or I might be wake up late again tomorrow. But wait, I think I should check on
Bella first.
Like the thing that I kept doing for today, I took a sneak peek inside of Bella’s room. And there she
is still asleep comfortably with some leftover food that I left for her on the bedside table.
I was glad that she ate the food, although she only ate them just in a very little quantity. I practically
crouching on the right side of the bed, watching her sleeping beautifully. There were several stranded
hair which cover her face so I slid them for her which made my heart skip a beat in all of sudden.
What is happening to me? What is this weird feeling that I feel right now?
I took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly, trying to control my sudden nervousness.
Okay....that is so weird!!!
Bella suddenly grabbed my hand when I was about to put my palm on her forehead to check on
with her temperature.
Wait....why her hand is so cold?
"I-I'm so cold...." she mumbled along with a shiver.
Oh my god.... her fever getting worse now.
This can't be....I think I should do something to her.
Oh right, since my warmth is unusual than anyone else and I think I should be a useful by warm
her up this night.
I'm sorry Bella, but I have to this to you. I don't want something bad to happen to you. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
I quickly got on her bed and lied down beside of her then gently pulled her towards me so I could
hug her in my arms. My mom used to this always in order to keep me warm while I was having cold
fever and it did work.S
Woah....she is indeed really cold.
I was getting a goose bump a bit when her skin touches my skin. But it was just for a temporary as
she seemed a little bit comfortable later on , maybe my warmth really worked for her cold fever. I
grabbed the blanket and pulled it up to cover us both and hugged her more tightly.
My heart..... it beat faster than ever and I was dying to know what was exactly happening to me. I
really have no idea about this, because I never feel like this for entire of my life, not even when I was
around Sasha.
"Sleep well, Bella." I whispered to her, although she couldn’t hear it. "I hope you won't mad at me
with the stupid action that I did to you right now. It's just for your own good."
My chin was on her cold forehead and wasn’t shiver like before anymore. I bet she could hear my
heartbeats on how fast my heart raced as her face was practically rest on my chest.
The truth is, I feel so cozy when I was near her, helping her like this, well actually, I don't know
what to say, but deep inside, I felt so glad that I can be useful for her, after what she has done for me
after we got married.
I think I start to like her more...... than usual, but still not more than friends.
I'm sorry Bella, but I still can't forget Sasha yet. I'm so sorry about that, I just can't help it.
