Jules's POV
It's really Keifer. He restraints me from falling, his one hand on my waist other on my back for support. He looks fresh, did he just got out of shower? His broad shoulder can be assumed with clothes but he has a perfect bare body. I mean upper body. Wait why he is bare?
Is he on his towel???
Holy shittttt!!!
No no no
Suddenly he lift me up, placed me on his bed. Give me a look before moving to a door. Before moving I saw scratches on his biceps and chest.
Was that me??
Oh no!
What's that look meant??
I am here dumbstrucked!
Embarrassed!
Covered my face with my palm. Tried to memories. But I know that would be vein.
Keifer's POV
I moved quickly to my walk in wardrobe. Grab a tshirt. Put it on.
------flashback------
I forgot to grab a tshirt for after shower. I only have track pants. Whatever I put it on. She mustn't be awake so I can grab a tshirt from the closets.
As soon as I came out, she's awake. Moreover she's trying to move. As a result she was off balance. I rushed for her, grab her waist supporting her back.
She's surprised and I'm amazed. She looks adorable, her cheeks swollen, lips pout, eyes wide. For some reason I love it. But her ankle is still tend to care. I scooped her up, placed her in bed. Moved.
------------end------------
She needs a doctor consultancy. I moved out. She's there. Good. But why she's sitting like that?
She's covering her face. Her body stiffen.
Suddenly she looks up, her skin flushed, nose and cheeks are red, eyes are red like she's holding her tears back.
A trembling voice came out.
"What did I do?"
I stood confused. What's she's talking about?
Again a shaky voice
"Why there are so many scratches on your body?"
Shit! She noticed. Now she's guilty.
"Did...did ...I do that? "
Her body is shaking now with her voice. Tears are falling. She's looking devastated.
"Is that for you are trying to aid my wound??
Why did you risked yourself??"
She's so guilty. She don't need to be.
I soon reached for her. Hold her hands softly but firm.
"You didn't do anything. You let me do your aiding. You are just traumatized. Nothing else. I was calming you down. It's the only the reflex. Because you don't know me. It's not your fault. OK??"
She listening. Suddenly started crying harder.
Jules's POV
I noticed my treated ankle, I saw the scratches on him. Undoubtedly it's me
Again!!!!
You're so pathetic.
You ruins everyone and everything.
You have no right to be alive!!!
He came out putting a tshirt. I asked about the last night. He remained silent.
That's mean I'm thinking right.
Suddenly he came closer. Hold my hands. And assured me.
That's not my fault. I'm traumatized.
I was thinking that he's going to blame me like others. But he didn't. I tried to comfort me even I had hurted him when he was tending for me.
I felt ashamed.
I don't know why. Suddenly I started crying.
Then hugged him!!!
Keifer's POV
She suddenly hugged me, crying like a baby. I don't know what to do. So I hugged her back, caressing her hair.
"It's OK. Cry it out. I'm here. You are safe."
She snapped back when I say these. Then asked,
"Sorry...I didn't mean that. But what do you mean by I'm safe? "
With a pause
"Did...did I say something or do something? Did I hurt you even more?"
"No! You didn't tell anything to be exact. It's just fragments. You're not feeling safe in the beginning then you cooperated."
"Really?? "
She asked surprisingly.
"Yeah! Now come on freshen up. We are going to doctor."
I'm ready to move. She holds my hand.
I faced her, her face was down, a thin voice came out
"I can't stand properly. If you are not having any problem can you support me to go to my place? "
She looks up and say
"It's in the same floor!"
Her eyes are pleading and shiny.
I nodded in agreement.
Jules's POV
I don't know how and why I hugged him? But it's feel comforting after so many years. He also hugged me .
Ahhh!!!! Hihihi!!!
He smells heavenly with a woody musky tone. But I must be smelling horrible like a dead rat or something. Iwas planning to pull back from his embrace.
But when he said that I'm safe, my chest tightened.
Why is he talking like that? Did I mentioned anything? Hell no!!!
I pulled back and asked him. His answer was clear but I could sense that he got something. But I don't want to mess it further. So I stopped.
Now he's talking about consulting a doctor. So was I. So I agreed but I couldn't move alone. And visiting a doctor like this will be a death sentence for him. I don't want to end up with demons afterlife so it's better if I freshen up first.
But that's more pathetic. I can't move alone. So I have to ask him for help. And to my surprise this boy agreed. Good.
Keifer's POV
She definitely needs help. And there is nothing in my house except food that could help him. So I agreed to help her.
I put on a jacket over my tshirt. Grab my wallet and car keys then lift her in my arms. Then we moved to her appartment.
We are living on two different side of the building of same corridor. So she's my neighbor because every floor have only two resident.
When we reached her door, she simply rings the bell. A moment later a maid opened the door. She looked surprised but Jules's expression is cold.
The maid realised. She bowed instantly.
Jules told me to take her to her bedroom. When I entered, it's massive with beige, white and black aesthetic. It's screaming luxury.
She's not something what she shows the world
She looked at me. I placed her on the bed.
She thanked me.
I'll wait outside. Tell me when you're done.
I came out. I saw the maid on the dining area.
"Miss can you go to her? "
She nodded then moved. I sit on a fluffy sofa on the living room.
Took out my phone. There were massages from my manager. I've to visit the office on Friday. I scrolled through out then saw 10+ missed call from an unknown number. Then there's few massage from same number. I opened the massages.
-Hi Keifer. I'm Martha
-Iwas calling you but you didn't received.
-Is everything OK?
-Did she tell something?
-Are you okay?
-Have she hurted you?
-Please call back as soon as you see the massages.
I called her back. By the second ring she received like she was clinging to her phone
Hello.
Her voice came.
Hi Martha.
- Is she fine?
Yes she's fine.
- Why didn't you answered my calls?
My phone was in silent.
-OK!
A pause.
Did she do something to you? Are you fine?
Absolutely fine. Why are you asking.
-Nothing.
She sighed like she holded the breath through out.
-OK. Tell her to contact me when she's available. And I'm sending her phone with my butler.
OK. Tell him handover it to the maid. Maybe you'll not be available.
-Why?
We're going to doctor for her ankle.
-OK. Inform me is she fine.
OK she'll be fine.
As I cut the call I saw Jules came out of her bedroom with the support of the maid. But her expressions tells she's getting pain. So I rushed.
Jules's POV
Idiot !!!! don't you know that I can't move alone?? Then why did I asked you to take to my place?? Huh!!!! Cabrona!!!!!
When I'm lost in my thoughts a maid knocked the door.
"Sir told me to visit you ma'am. How can I help you? "
A thin voice came out.
Wait. He put me in my bedroom then left, sent a maid for my help.
Oh my Goddddd!!! He is a gentleman not an asshole. Hihihi!!!
Then I noticed the maid is seeing. I cleared my throat. Asked her to take me to the washroom.
Somehow I managed there.
To avoid any inconvenience I wore a light floral top with a loose fit trouser, make a bun, some strands pulled out. Add some tint that's it. It's mandatory to look pretty even if your leg is not working.
I come out of room. Here he is, talking to someone
We're going to doctor for her ankle.
OK she'll be fine.
He hang up the call. As soon as saw me quickly rushed to give me a firmed support. And finally I leaned.
OK no offense he is strong. I can trust him.
