“Thank you mom” She appreciated her warm reception.Then as they were still standing on the entrance, they heard his father talking “What are you still waiting for? Join the rest of the family they are waiting for you.” Mark spoke with an authoritative voice as he stared towards the spot where the three were standing. Each of them suddenly realized that other members were deep in a conversation talking about the current politics going on in the country.They were all smiles and Betty was so much in love with the family. They accepted her unconditionally without caring where she came from. She knew she was not of the same social standards, but all of them understood that and gave her their respect.However she will only be complete after earning David’s heart. Betty made a decision right there that she will do everything possible in her power to be able to melt his cold heart and make him fall in love with her. What she didn’t know was how?“Betty, how is your father’s health? One of
He became alert as he muttered “I am listening, It better not be something that will make me angry. You know sometimes I don’t know how to control my emotions and the person who will pay will be Betty. So please I am begging you for her own sake”He waved his hand in agreement “Yeah, I already knew about it even though she is bent on denying it. When the situation becomes worst you will have to seek treatment son”He didn’t seemed pleased with the comment his father made and therefore his face produced an ugly frown in displeasure and hurriedly pushed the idea at the back of his head then he made it look like he didn’t hear it.“You were explaining something concerning me.” He said with a distance look. Immediately he finished saying those words, the door opened and his mother walked in with a cup of two coffees. She settled herself in the sofa where Mark was sitting and joined the conversation.“It’s even good that your mother is here, I also want her to know about this. There is a
His blue eyes were full of darkness, is like he was possessed by some evil spirit. He was observing her with intensity, he couldn’t wait to devour her body which was already weak from anxiety and stress.“Davie, what is wrong with you? I don’t know, but I feel like you need some special care” He was now consumed with some strange force. He started mumbling incoherent things that she couldn’t understand at all.“Betty I don’t feel well. Don’t talk too loud, my head is almost busting out of pain. Please help me I can’t take it.” She was confused at the current change of situation. She thought that tonight she will be the one begging for help and it turns out that David was worse than she is.Betty was already thinking on what might be wrong with him, but to no avail, she got emotional while asking “Tell me, How can I help you if I don’t know what the hell is your disease.” He then shook his head vigorously and held his forehead with his huge hands. He was in a terrible pain that woul
Now she understood his continuous refusal to get tied to a woman, it must have been a bad experience he had in the past, all the same she will be by his side “Don’t worry about that Dad, He has me and I was not planning on leaving him. I made a promise to you and I will keep it. I am not the kind of a woman who turns their back on the person who helped them when they most needed it” Betty was a bit disappointed because it seemed that everyone knew that David was sick apart from her. Even Mark hid that important information from her.“Do forgive me my dear sweet Girl. I didn’t have the guts to tell you, but Now that you know I am ashamed especially when it was me who requested you to marry him. He is also a good hearted person and I am very sure he will learn to love and adore you. Just be patient and give him some little time.”“Alright just come and help me with him” she didn’t want to dwell on the topic anymore what was done she couldn’t change but what she could do was to prove to
Right then the doctors came out of the room and said that David was out of danger but he was still sleeping. They congratulated the person who gave him the first medicine and his parents glanced towards Betty’s direction at the same time making her uncomfortable. She was just doing what anyone would have done in that situation.“Doctor, can we go in and see him?” Betty asked.“Yes, but one at a time”Mark went inside first then followed by his mother who couldn’t wait to hug and kiss her son. After waiting for a long time it was Betty’s turn and she told his parent to go back home that she will take care of David. They hesitated, but after a while agreed that it was better for David to wake up beside his wife rather than them. They knew perfectly well that they were the cause of his relapse.“Alright dear. Call us anytime whenever you need us” they kissed her on the cheeks and left almost immediately.When Betty entered the room and saw David Lying motionless on the bed, she was so s
“By the way, there was a question I asked and you refused to answer me. How did I get to this hospital?” David wouldn’t give up.Betty didn’t want to explain things before because she knew that she will have to include the part where she opened his cell phone and he will end up getting angry. She didn’t want to get him anxious as his condition appeared to be delicate.“Promise me you won’t get angry at me. I did what I had to because I was desperate .I feared that something bad was going to happen to you” all this time she was fiddling with her fingers nervously and David couldn’t guess what was going on. For God’s sake she helped him and got him to the hospital on time, what else could she be afraid of like this. He didn’t force himself on her and therefore he couldn’t come up with a better reason.“Come on Betty. Spit it out”“I opened your phone and called Larry. That was the only way I thought of to help you.” She could see him struggling not to get upset. His jaws became tight fr
“Okay” Betty pulled the bedsheets off his body and held his shoulders with her arms. She supported him as they walked slowly to the toilet. Betty opened the door and instead of remaining outside decided to go in with him.He smirked softly while saying” It’s okay I can do it myself or do you want to watch me as well?” Betty turned red immediately, she was blushing all over her face and David noticed.“Oh it’s my bad I thought you were too weak but I admit I am wrong again. Let me wait for you outside.” David loved the way she cared for him but he wondered why he couldn’t fall in love with her despite her kindness.He already knew she had fallen for him but he didn’t want it to go this far. After the latest revelation from his father he was even more confused.“Are you done? Do you need my help?” Betty asked again.“Gosh Betty, you are too over protective. But I want you to know that I appreciate your kindness. Even though you didn’t have to, you still chose to be by my side.”“I do i
All this time she was talking David wondered how the hell she knew that he liked bananas. He remembered clearly that he never mentioned that to her and the woman was so full of surprises each and every day.“Wow! You are the best Betty” Betty on hearing that turned red all over. This was the first time David was honestly complimenting her efforts. She looked at him in a trance until he snapped his hands to bring her back to reality.”“Thank you. It was just luck on my side” it felt good especially the way he was glancing at her with admiration. That is the kind of a life she wanted with him, not the one with headaches and hate.After finishing eating the fruits, David felt that he didn’t need to stay in the hospital anymore. He had a lot of responsibilities at his company and therefore he needed to go back home as soon as possible.so he signaled for Betty who was busy arranging things in the room to come closer.“Betty,” he called” can you please tell my doctor that I want to go home,
