Chapter 62 Bad
Ruby couldn’t understand the mystery that had just happened here, it was just a matter of seconds before everything went back to normal.
Collins sat on a stool as he waited for God knows what. One thing for sure is that he is not in a haste to leave, and that was the best thing that could ever happen to him. As he heaved a gentle sigh, he summoned the courage to ask the question that he had being dreading since he came here.
“Ruby, what happened that you are here in the hospital today? I mean, you look hurt so much. Sorry for prying,” Colkins muttered out.
That is a weird way of saying things, it didn’t quite make a lot of sense but Ruby had a question to answer, thus making her feel a little sad. For a moment, she wondered if it was worth it, and deep down in her, she had no choice that to answer but the moment she opened her mouth to talk, Xavier silenced her ith hos words.
“Come on, Collins, can’t you see that Ruby is tired and needs rest? come on now, if you don’t mind, Ruby needs to sleep,” Xavier spat out.
That was an awkward manner of silencing a person, it didn’t quite make a lot of sense, but then, he had said it now and the manner in which he looked, there was no remorse in him at all.
Collins wised what was happening and he looked at me as if expecting some help from her, of course, that is true, and Ruby offered her some help.
“I will let you know why I am in the hospital. I tried poisoning Xavier, but I later thought it wise to drink it, thus, here am I suffering from the after effect,” Ruby muttered out.
She did not feel ashamed of saying this thing, instead, she made it seem normal like it was something natural, and the more she gained attention from the young man’s side. This is amazing, the more she had her eyes on Xavier, that was awkward, her problem was just so much, and it wouldn’t do her any good at all.
Collins face was a line of shock, she couldn’t believe it, but what more is left of that. The shock was too much as well. There isn’t much to do about it, her heartbeat had accelerated, she couldn’t even figure it out.
“Collins, please, do not mind what she is saying, Ruby, just be still, and rest. Baby brother, I thought you were going to make things right, but I guess that things aren’t always going to stay the same them.
Heaving a gentle sigh, the young man didn’t want Collins to know what is happening but then, he wasn’t a kid, he knows what he wants, when he wants it and that is awkward. There are several things that was really not good but then, there isn’t much going on around here, and the look on his face is one that is there are many things that would just go on right now.
“Why did you have to tell Collins that you tried poisoning yourself? I mean, this issue is supposed to remain between us, there is not supposed to be any treaspassing,” Xavier blurted out the moment Collins left the room.
He was literally mad at Ruby, and the lady knew it herself. That is weird, there isn’t much of a thing that would happen around here, but then, that is it, nothing much is should be added unto it. Shaking her head from left to right, Ruby tried her best to respond to him but it wasn’t going at all. On a second note, she decided to be tat little bitch anyone wouldn’t want to see at all because it will not make a lot of sense, and hat is the weird thing about it.
“I just told Collins the truth, at least, he deserves it, and you better stop urging me to stop because you aren’t being nice at all,” she muttered out.
Xavier had a had time gulping this fact down his throat, and thus, he was mad at her. There is nothing to quarrel about, and as a senior person with status, Xavier, was just going to make things worse for them.
The moment they looked at one another, Xavier didn’t find any offense in that annoying stare the lady shot at her, that was awkward, but then, just brushing it from her mind was just ugly.
The doctor entered the ward, and walked over to Ruby’s side. He looked nice and using his free hand, he opened her eyes trying to search of she was alright. Of course, he was looking to see if she had all the blood cells that were needed, and she did have it.
“How are you feeling today?” the doctor asked.
“I am feeling pain on my head, and the throat hurts a lot. Apart from that, I am fine,” the young lady replied.
She was serious with what she
said and it was the truth as well. The more she glared at the man, there wasn’t much she could do about it especially as there wasn’t much to talk about.
The doctor nodded his head positively, he had every reason to do so. Ruby on her part wanted to know when she will be discharged and since the doctor didn’t say anything about it, she decided to make it a question.
“Doctor, please when will I be discharged?” the young man asked raising his brows.
That was an awkward way of saying this thing, but she totally needed answers to this question, and as well she didn’t want’t much of a thing to happen to her. The fact that she had her way was enough. And avoiding Xavier is one good thing, the only one she finds it preferably.
“Maybe in an hour or two. How about that? and for this your stitches, I hope you don’t mind cleaning the wound? it will hurt but you need to be vrave okay? I will ask the pharmacist to prepare the drugs you will be taking home,” the doctor muttered out.
That was an easy thing to say, and as he swirled his body around, he faced the young man who stood leaning against the door. The doctor’s words were to Xavier in particular.
“Mr. Xavier, I will like you to take very good care of this lady, and if you do not mind, what more can I do about it, just give her milk as well, don’t make her consume any poisonous substances again, and I think that will do,” he mouthed smoothly.
Xavier quickly nodded his head in comprehension, that is amazing, and it is the best thing that could happen to him, the doctor given him full control. Sometimes, there are things that should not be set up in this way, but then, there isn’t much that can go about it, and the fear she feels through out the entire time just succeeds In giving him goosebumps.
The doctor walked out of the room to go insearch of the cleaning utensils that were going to be used on the lady’s body.
“Hey! I don’t want you here,” Ruby muttered out in anger.
Xavier’s eyes widened in shock. He had not expected such a thing from this lady, and thus, his face was a sullen mask of anger, but then, he tried his beat in maintaining his self honor and self esteem. He truly didn’t find this shit funny, and the more his mind was now fucked up, all he did was to glare at the lady mischievously, awirl around in an attempt to leave. This is the only way to avoid further trouble coming from Ruby’s side, not only has the lady tried killing him, her behaviour towards him is just so awkward, it disgusts him, and it is the worst thing that can ever happen. The shock from it is one that none has ever experienced before, all the shock, pain and anger now rested in his mind and in an attempt not to take things too personal, he decided to walk out of the ward, but unfortunately, Ruby still spoke.
“Where are you going to?” Ruby asked.
The question took Xavier unaware, and that was just so bizarre, it made him want to to slap him, but it was just the weirdest thing that has ever happened to her.
“I thought you asked me to leave? why then are you calling me back?” he inquired As he stared at her faintly.
Well, they had every reason to think that way, it didn’t quite make a lot of sense. Ruby heaved a gentle sigh as she prepared her mind to respond to him.
“The fact that I asked you to leave doesn’t mean I actually want you to go,” Ruby won’t out.
Of course, she had every right to say whatever thing that crosses he mind, part from the fact that, Xavier wouldn’t appreciate it, but theen, who cares?
“Hmm! I truly don’t like it when you talk to me that way, and in case you start weeping when the doctor starts cleaning your wound, be prepared to face that issue alone, okay?” he inquired.
There is no way that such a thing could happen and it frightened the hell out of Ruby. She clearly didn’t want to stay alone through this tough moment of her life, it wouldn’t make a lot of sense.
“Please, stay, I take back what I just said asking you to leave,” she muttered out.
At once, the young man had that evill smirk on his face. He knew some tricks to work it out with women and this is one that will work perfectly will for Ruby. He wasn’t heartless, thus he accepted to stay all the same.
“Fine, I will stay with you,” Xavier explained.
This is the best thing that can ever happen, and as he glared at her, the doctor walked in carrying a tray, his aim was to clean Ruby’s wounds. That is ao important right now.
“It us going to hurt you, so you are warned,” he explained.
While still being in the hospital, the doctor had already started cleaning up the wound that Ruby was having on her forehead as it was kind of severe. She could really feel the pains that was coming out of her wound at the time.
She could not hold the pains while the doctor was cleaning the wound as she started shouting out loud from the top of her voice with out even hesitating a little bit. There was literally the need for her to make sure that she gets to calm down at that particular point in time as well as to take a deep breath so that the doctor could actually get to do his job perfectly with out having any problems or even any distraction.
How ever, through out the process, Xavier was there present right beside her trying to make sure that, he gets to comfort her and even make her to feel more comfortable more than she must have ever been before. That was low key because, from the look that Ruby was putting on her face, she could clearly get understand all of what was happening at that particular point in time.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
As Xavier could clearly get to understand that, the kind of pains that Ruby was actually feeling at that time were actually being very severe and there was literally nothing that he could do to even make sure that she gets to calm down at that time.
Any way, what was actually important was that, he had actually succeeded to do the best I could do. And there was no way that any one could ever get to tell him that all what he had actually done at that time did not even so any thing in order to even get to calm Ruby down at that time.
It wad actually very true that he had succeeded so well to have made her to calm down well as the rate at which Ruby was now shouting was not that much again as before.
