The Boss 💞The Maid 💕
Chapter 16 ❤
I was crying profusely, seeing her like this sadden my heart so much.
‘I know it linda’s work, how can she do this to me ‘
The ambulance came and christabel was placed on a stretcher, we got to the hospital in 15minutes.
She was taken into a ward, I wasn’t allowed to enter so I stayed outside. I couldn’t sit, I kept glancing at the door.
“Richard, what happened? where is Christabel? ” I turned and saw it was my mom with my dad too.
“Mom, she was shot, I don’t want her to die. I love her mom, I love her” More tears dropped down from my eyes.
‘I won’t be able to get myself if she dies ‘
“You love her? I mean you fell in love with her?” Mom asked and I nodded.
“OMG, don’t worry, she’s gonna be fine ” she assured me.
“She’s not going to die son ” my dad spoke out.
“I know it linda’s doing, she’s the one who sent them, she threatened to deal with her and she did”
.”Don’t worry son, we will get to her later, let just pray Christabel should live ” my dad patted me.
‘ I can’t afford to lose her just like that ‘
5 minutes later…
The doctor came out, I ran to him “How is she? I mean the girl that was shot? ” I asked, impatiently..
The doctor sighed “She’s…. ”
“Go straight to the point, she’s what? ” I yelled.
“Calm down, she’s fine. She’s really a strong woman, we were able to remove the bullets. So she’s okay now ” The doctor smiled, I didn’t know when I hugged him.
I felt very relieved, christabel didn’t die. OMG!
“Can I see her please? ” I pleaded.
“Hmm.. yes.. but she’s still sleeping ” he replied.
“Okay doctor, thanks so much ” I didn’t wait to hear his reply when I ran to her ward.
I opened the door and saw Christabel laying on the bed. A tear dropped from my eye.
She had bandage on her stomach where she was shot, I walked to her and sat beside her on the bed.
“Christabel am sorry I didn’t protect you from the bullets, and thank you for staying strong for me, I will always love you with all my life ” I said, holding her left hand.
Suddenly, a woman in her fifties came in with a man which I know he must be her husband.
She was panting heavily, I looked at her well and saw the resemblance of christabel.
‘She must be her mother ‘
“What happened to my daughter? someone should tell me” she half yelled.
“MA please calm down, she was shot but she’s okay now ” my mom answered her
She calmed down but not fully “Who did this to me? what’s my offence? ” she was crying.
An hour later..
Christabel’s parents and mine went home cause I told them am gonna stay here with christabel though they insist but I told them not to worry.
I glanced at christabel and didn’t know when I slept off.
Christabel’s pov
The next morning…
I opened my eyes slowly, everywhere was blur. I recalled what happened to me yesterday.
I was shot on my stomach .
The blurring became clear and I could hear a beeping sound, the walls were painted white.
I stood up but i was held down by a sharp pain in my stomach. I heard someone mumbling and I traced it with my eyes.
‘Richard!! ‘ he was sleeping on the small couch and I stood up finally sitting on the bed.
I remembered when I said “I love him” before I landed here. He opened his eyes and saw me smiling.
“Christabel!! you are awake? ” he ran to me and sat beside me.
“Yes Richard, am awake. How was your night? ” I asked staring into his swollen eyes.
‘He has been crying? ‘
“It wasn’t fine but now that you are awake, I think it fine ” I chuckled.
“Okay, can we go home now? please I want to go home ” I pleaded, I didn’t really like staying in the hospital for long.
“No, but the doctor said you will be discharged on Friday ” he answered smiling.
“Friday? that’s long! ” I exclaimed.
“Yeah, christabel am sorry I didn’t save you from the bullets, please forgive me ” he was about crying.
‘why is he blaming himself ‘
“It nothing, you don’t have to blame yourself for it richard, forget about it okay? ” I said, looking down at his plump lips.
“Is there something on my lips? ” he asked touching it.
“No.. No.. Nothing ” I looked away shyly.
“I know what you want ” he smirked.
‘What I want?’
“What? ” I asked.
He bought his face close to mine till we were lip to lip.
“This” He kissed me on my soft lips and I responded, forgetting the pain I was having.
“I love you christa ” I heard him say.
‘ Only my father call me Christa ‘ I smiled.
“I love you too richard ” I said after we broke the kiss.
TBC…
