I woke up to blinding light in my room and when I looked around I noticed that I was in my room not Josiah's room and I sighed remembering how rude I was yesterday.
"Oh good. You are awake" Amala said entering into the room and I wondered how she got here why she was here and when she got here too.
I gave her a questioning look but did not say anything.
Why again.
No idea.
"Jonathan dropped me here plus your man looked pretty fucked up before he left" she stated making me stare blankly at her.
Did she really have to poke the wound like that.
"Oh" was what I managed to let out and she rose a brow at my choice of response then closed the door.
"Come on you need a shower then I'll rub something on those ribs of yours to help you get through the day then return the bandages" she said removing the bed cover I had used to cover myself revealing my bare legs.
I then sat down straight and rose the shirt I was wearing revealing the bandages that I had on since yesterday.
She sat next to me then carefully helped me remove them as gentle as possible but despite that I still felt pain.
When the bandages left my side she carefully observed me then chuckled.
"I wonder what state your mother is in because if you look like this..." she did not finish her sentence instead she shook her head then chuckled.
How evil was this woman.
"I am happy to know that you find my situation amusing" I lightly said then covered my bare chest which was outside.
She laughed at what I said then helped me stand up so that I could go take a shower.
She told me to shout her name if I needed her help or anything like that then walked out of the shower with a soft lock on my door.
I managed to go through with it and when I was done I kept on a shirt some shorts then called Amala so that she could help me apply the cream on my ribs mostly because I knew I was not going to apply the pressure needed if I did it on my own.
She appeared in my room with a small smile then told me to remove my shirt and lie on the bed and try not to be a pussy.
I just had a bad feeling that this was going to be more painful than what I had anticipated and boy was I right.
After she applied the cream all over my ribs she told me to sit up so that she could return back my bandages.
I counted from the minute she was done putting on the bandages to the time when my ribs started feeling like they were on fire.
She gave me a knowing look.
"Dont be a pussy. I am going to bring breakfast" she said laughing then stood up to leave me in the room.
The whole time my eyes were wide and mouth opening and closing.
I couldn't even find it in me to scream.
How could I.
It was like all the strength was being drained from me as my ribs felt like they were being smoked.
It burnt.
It hurt.
Looking around I tried standing up but hell all the strength I mustered went flying through the window when I felt the fire increase.
What the hell did this woman rub on me.
Shortly after she returned in the room carrying food that I had no appetite eating even though it smelled and looked mouth watering.
"Did you know it was going to burn like this?" I asked hissing after every word because it was even painful to talk.
It was like each breath I was taking was fuelling the fire I was feeling and if the sweat on my forehead was not enough to confirm it I started lowly groaning.
Why the hell would she do this.
"It will go away in five minutes" she said looking at me her eyes screaming apologies that she did not dare speak because she knew.
She knew I would lash out on her.
Despite the fact that she was doing this for my wellbeing.
I would kill her.
"Kill me" I whispered trying to lay on the bed but I quickly shot up after the pain increased due to my movement and she rushed to my side.
"Dont fucking touch me" I hissed trying to move from her but there was not much I could do.
This shit was limiting my movement and her hands shot up in surrender.
Why did four fucking minutes feel like hell again.
Oh yeah because I was being burned alive.
Few moments later the pain reduced making me my breathing feel normal again not uncomfortable and painful.
"All better?" She asked looking at me as she distributed evenly the food on the plate so that we could all eat breakfast.
"Shut up" I murmured moving to the white fluffy carpet she was sitting on with two plates infront of her.
As I started eating the pain slowly started fading away and in no time we started chatting again from where we left off on the phone.
I told her about how Ajax was helping me keep track of Noelle and when I said that she gave me one of her looked that silently screamed that she was not making peace with what I was doing.
When I asked her what it was she asked me if I was that oblivious to the situation.
"Let me guess you told Josiah that it was an old friend who helped you get all the information on Noelle?" She asked looking at me with a knowing look.
What was wrong with saying that he was an old friend in the first place because he was and second I did not think it was so important for Josiah to know all about my past relationships as long as I had no feelings for those people or anything left between us.
