"Thanks for driving me home," I said lazily and waited for him. "How are you? What just happened? Why were you crying earlier?" He asked one after another. I looked at him without emotion. "It's none of your business anymore. You can go now, I'll take care of parking my car. Just take a taxi or whatever, thank you again." I said because I was impatient to wait for him to leave the driver's seat as if he didn't know that I was waiting for him to leave. He was suddenly confused. "But are you okay? You look tired, come on, I'll assist you in entering your home. Do you want anything? Do you want to eat--" "I want to be alone, so please, leave me alone." He was stunned and seemed to want to cry in front of me. "A-Amelie, why are you like that to me? I'm here, don't be mad at me please..." I frowned. What the heck? Is he starting to be emotional here? "I don't have time to deal with your drama right now. Just get out of here and get a freaking taxi so you can go home too!" My blood pressure is starting to rise again because of this jerk. "Okay...okay, fine. Just rest, I don't want you to feel worse because of me." He said and I sighed with relief because of that. "Woooh! Thank you because you thought of that! I thought you're going to apply your stupid behavior again." I sarcastically said. "Amelie-" I cut him before he could continue the sentence. "Hush now, Julius! That's enough, thank you for everything, but please leave. Leave me alone...for good." I said and I go closer to him and I opened the driver's seat door for him to leave. "Go," I said with my arms crossed and when I was got impatient, I raised my eyebrows to threaten him. "I said, go!" I shouted as he startled and slowly left. "Hurry up!" I furiously shouted and he left immediately. "Tss...he's indeed an idiot. Do I have to reach my explosion before he understands that I want him to leave right away?! He's seriously insane!" I said furiously as I moved to the driver's seat and closed the door and parked the car. I got out of the car and entered the house when my phone suddenly vibrated. From: Mr. Anoush Harper Are you alright? I just sighed and didn't bother to reply. Fine, I'm the one who has no respect for the boss. I deserve to be fired, kidding! You see, we can't live without money. I need money to live so, I need this job! Okay, next time, I'll try to be nicer to him! Tsk! I went straight to the bedroom and immediately went to bed. I checked the aircon to see if it was on because It's too cold but it was turned off. I didn't even bother to change my clothes, I just hid in the blanket and hugged myself. Heck, why it is so cold! I peeked into the area of my phone and picked it up and called Denny. "Yow, my dear bestie! Did you come home?" "It's c-cold..." I said weakly. "What? Then put on your jacket, duh!" she said. "I'm...freezing here!" "Hey! Where are you?" I took a deep breath and swallowed. "At home." I checked my forehead and neck to see if it was hot and I was right! I have a fever! "I think I have a fever..." she got silent but my forehead furrowed when she suddenly laughed. "My god! It's just a lovesick! Wait, I'll just buy you medicine, just wait there!" I didn't answer her and just hung up because she didn't make sense. But I'm sure she will buy medicine for me. DING! DONG! Wow, I never thought that she's fast as this! My friend is really different! I bet, she can audition herself at The Flash movie version 2.0! I got up from lying down and lazily left the room while still wrapped in a blanket. DING! DONG! "Wait! You're impatient, Denny! I'm already sick and you're still in a hurry--" I stop blabbering and accidentally let go of my blanket when I saw who came. "S-sorry, I thought something happened to you so I rang the doorbell again." Anoush Harper is now concerned together with Ms. Smith. "We found out that you were sick, so we bought medicine and food for you," Gizle said with a smile. What the heck! Denny, get ready to pay for this, you freak! Argh, I don't know anymore why I became friends with her! I bent down and quickly picked up the blanket that had fallen. "Hello, Mr. Harper, Ms. Smith. I'm sorry for how I look now. But...I don't need it anymore, it's embarrassing, I can do it alone Sir, Ma'am." I refused together with my right hand. "It's okay, we don't have anything to do, so we just thought of visiting and take care of you." I shook my head, my house is a mess! They not going to see that! Oh God, help me! "Not really, it's embarrassing--" "Quit the shame and just let me-I mean...us to take care of you." Sir Anoush suddenly answered and pulled me inside. Wait, is he a trespasser now?! My god! What should I do, my house is totally in a mess right now! "I-I'm sorry for the mess, I'll just fix it first. Just wait for me for about five minutes." I politely promised and immediately removed Anoush's hand from holding me and turned my back on them to start cleaning. "Can you take care of yourself first?" I got stunned by that question. "You're just focusing on something else. You're already sick and now you can still act like that?" I felt his presence gets closer to me and held me on both shoulders and looked straight at me. "Ignore us. It's you who matters right now, please, let us take care of you." I stared at him, his eyes are serious but there was still a hint of concern, so was his tone too. I looked at Gizle who was also full of concern for me. Doesn't she notice what Anoush is doing to me? Isn't she jealous of the way Anoush cares about me? Like hello, I'm just a damn beautiful matchmaker? Doesn't she think there might be something with us? "All right, sir. I'm really sorry." I just said because it's so awkward and Ms. Gizle is here. He gently let go of me and assisted me towards my room. Ms. Smith just followed us. The cold I was feeling seemed to have doubled because of their presence with me now, so I went back to the bedroom with a blanket. But I didn't expect Anoush to hug me tightly as we walked! So I hurried to the room and went straight to lie down on the bed, but still slowly so he wouldn't notice that I wanted to escape from his embrace. I don't want him to think that I hate him that much again. "Do you need anything? Are you thirsty? Do you want to eat? We have some food, I can also cook you a sopas." Mr. Harper said one after another. "Did you take the medicine? Eat first before you take the medicine. I will prepare the food first." Ms. Gizle immediately took care of the ones they brought. They had already brought almost all the fever medicine. Do they plan to overdose on me? Or did they just panicked because of worry? My god, they're crazy! Then they even brought a basket full of fruits! I didn't even notice that! They also brought a lot of food! Will I finish it all?! Do they want me to be so healthy so that I don't get sick anymore? Anoush took the food while Ms. Gizle peels the apple. "Ah," I backed away as Anoush was about to fill the food in my mouth. "H-huh? It's okay sir, I'll do it alo--" "I said, ah," he seriously demanded and my jaw dropped. He took the chance to put the food inside my mouth. I can't do anything anymore so I just chewed it and worriedly looked at Ms. Gizle who's now innocent still peeling the fruit. "Here, eat it after you eat the sopas." Ms. Gizle said to me and placed the fruit on the table next to me. My eyes widened again as Anoush filled my mouth with the spoon he was holding face to face! Ms. Gizle can clearly see that but she didn't even react! Tell me, what the hell is going on here?! Why are they acting like they aren't dating and they didn't care?! "Hello...yes..." Ms. Gizle looked at me while taking her phone call, even if the phone isn't ringing. "Sure...okay, I'm on my way...okay, bye." Ms. Gizle held her bag and hurriedly looked at us. "I need to meet my manager, I forgot that we have a shoot tomorrow and now we have a meeting." I was confused but understand right after, I guess her phone is in vibration mode so we didn't hear the phone rang. "Eh? All right, take care, Ma'am." I snatched the food from Anoush and stood up. "I'll take care of myself. For now, I'll take you outside." I said and waited for them to follow me. "No need, my driver is coming here so Anoush will be left here to take care of you. I can go by myself, anyway." She said and looked at Anoush with big eyes, Anoush couldn't answer. "But--" "No buts, I really need to leave. Just rest there, Anoush will watch over you, he won't leave you." And she gave me a meaningful smile and looks that surprised me. "Stay here, I'll take care of you...my self." Anoush pulled me and laid me on the bed. He literally emphasized the word himself! "OMG, 'k guys, I'm gonna go now. Get well soon, girl." Then she left and left the two of us here. "T-thank you again!"I hurriedly shouted so that she can hear it. "My pleasure, dear!"I smiled at her response and accidentally landed my sight on him. I automatically avoid his gaze because of the extreme awkwardness I felt. "Ah," I didn't speak anymore, I just gaped to finish the meal, and when I finished eating the fruit and taking the medicine, he slowly laid me down on the bed again as if I couldn't do it alone! "Rest now," he commanded and I just closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep. "Rest well, love."
