Chapter 12
"Let me take you down....I'll treat your wounds." With that I picked her up and went downstairs.
"Wow little bride..." it was fucking Axel. Delilah suddenly looked at the direction the voice came. Grandma was also there.
"Axy? You came back?" Delilah's eyes were filled with joy because Axel and she had a good brother and sister relationship.
"Yeah, I came to see you." What the fuck? He also said that to grandma. I put Delilah on the sofa and went to take a first-aid box.
"Del what happened?" Both Axel and grandma asked. Suddenly guilt took over me. Because I did it to her.
"I fell." She said with a smile, I looked at her. She was really something that I won't be able to forget in my life.
"Damn...be careful next time." Axel said as he looked at me. Delilah nodded with a happy expression. I knew she was happy to see Axel. I cleaned Delilah's wounds as she clutched my shirt, she was hurt. Urgh..I hate myself. Finally I finished.
"Del.. I brought you something." With that Axel gave Delilah a big chocolate bag. Chocolate was Delilah's favorite. I watched her every move, she was really happy. I also felt happy because she's smiling.
"Thank you Axy.. is this all for me or do I have to share with anyone?" I wanted to laugh at her because she was definitely mentioning me as anyone.
"No only for you." Axel said Delilah kissed his cheek. What the fuck? I really felt anger inside me then Axel looked at me as he smirked. I knew he was doing it on purpose. I looked at my little bride as she hugged the chocolate bag with a big smile. I remembered the first time I saw her. On her 8th birthday, she was wearing a light pink dress, she was like a princess and she was sitting on the big chair and eating chocolates.
"Brother Kayn. You want some?" She called me Kayn while smiling at me with her chocolate filled mouth. She was really cute.....but she stopped calling me Kayn after her 18th birthday. Urgh. I forced myself to forget those memories.
~ Delilah ~
It's been one month since Kayden went for a business trip. He went to Paris because he had to deal with some troubles in his companies. He was a really good businessman and he knew how to deal with every situation. I didn't see him for a month and it felt like a decade and I don't know how he was or anything. For some unknown reason I was just scared because I felt something bad would happen so I always asked grandma to call him and check, she said he was fine so I just decided to forget that weird feeling. Then I received a call and it was from James.
"Hey James." I quickly answered the call.
"Del. Could you please buy some medicine for me. I think I've caught a cold." James's voice was also rough. Damn.. I forgot to check on him for a week and that happened.
"I'll come now, wait for me James." With that I quickly changed into clothes and drove the car to a drugstore and took medicine for him and quickly drove to his apartment. I knocked on the door but he didn't reply and the door wasn't locked so I went in. Then I took a medicine bag and entered his room. James was sleeping on the bed as his upper body was covered with sweat.
"James...wake up and drink the medicine." I called him but he didn't respond so I had to wake him up.
"Jemmy.... wake up I'm here. Have this medicine and sleep." I said as I touched his forehead. Shit he has high fever
"D...Del you're here..." finally he spoke. I quickly helped him to sit and drink his medicine. Then I went to his bathroom and took a water basin and towel as I started to clean his body.
"It's okay.. Del ... I'll be alright. Go home now" My heart aches for James, he was always there for me when I needed him. So how can I just leave him.
"No.. I'll go later. Tell me did you eat?" I asked James as he shook his head.
"Last night?" I asked again. Shit I knew it as he shook his head. Damn ... how can he stay like this?
"Why didn't you just call me earlier James? I don't wanna talk to you because I feel like hitting you." I said. I was really angry. Why can't he just call me and tell me that he was sick last night. Urgh..
"I'm sorry Del. I didn't want to bother you." Really? Am I that useless?
"Just shut up and sleep James I'll make something for you and wake you up. "I got up to leave, then he suddenly caught my wrist as I looked at him.
"You care for me?" What the hell? What's wrong with him.
"I always care about you James. It hurts to believe that you didn't eat dinner and breakfast. So sleep now." I pinched his face as he smiled at me , then I quickly went to his kitchen, I found vegetables and chicken as I checked his refrigerator. So I quickly made soup then I ordered bread. After I received bread I toasted it with cheese. After I finished everything I went to James room,
"Jemmy... wake up and eat." I woke him up.
"Shall I bring food here? Because I don't think you have energy to walk." I asked as I wiped his face. He nodded, so I quickly went to the kitchen and brought food to his room.
"Made soup and bread. Can you eat alone or you want me to help?" I asked
"Help.." I smiled at him as I helped him to drink his soup. He ate everything and fell asleep. I again wiped the sweat on his body and went to make dinner for him. It's already 4.00 p.m. I quickly made noodles for him. Then I went to his room and checked his temperature, he was getting better. So I woke him up.
"Jemmy. I should go home now. I made dinner for you. And I filled the bathtub with warm water, now get up and wash yourself. After that eat and sleep. If there's anything just call me. You're not bothering me okay?" I told James as he looked at me with a small smile.
"Okay" with that I tried to get him to get up. So I quickly sent him to the washroom and left the house before I could take two steps. I saw someone was staring at me while sitting in the car, I knew it was Kayden's car and the person who was staring at me was also Kayden. A sudden fear ran through my mind, I didn't do anything wrong but Kayden was someone who never believed me. Then Kayden got down from his car and closed the door with a loud bang, then he strode towards me. I knew he was angry. So I took a step back as I wanted to go into James house but before that Kayden grabbed me from my waist and dragged me to his car, then he pushed me into the passenger seat as he got in the car.
