Dorothy woke up feeling so weak, her body was aching her and her throat were dry.
“Doll” she heard someone said and she looked at the person.
She wanted to talk but her throat did not allow her, Calvin saw that and asked the maid to get water for her.
The maid rushed out and came back with the water.
Calvin help Dorothy sit on the bed and gave her the water, “are you done?, is there anything else you need?” Calvin asked when she had drank the water.
“No,” she replied, her voice was very hoarse.
“Lie down on the bed, okay” he said.
“What happened?” She asked.
“The butler said that you tripped on a wet floor and then fainted” Calvin replied.
“Stupid moron” he added.
“Don’t blame them, Honey pie” Dorothy said.
“I wasn’t” he lied.
Jack was carrying Dorothy outside the house when Calvin drove into the residence.
He flew out of the car and took her from the butler and rushed to the hospital.
But the doctor examined her and assured them that she was alright and will wake up soon.
Calvin then regained himself and took her back to the house, when he returned all the maids in the house were summoned in the room.
“Who poured water on the floor of the kitchen?” Calvin had asked them but all of them denied it.
“Good, go back to your duties, if you guys don’t provide the person that did that before tomorrow. You guys are all dead” he threatened.
No one questioned him and they all left as he told them to, the amount of fear they had as they walked out of the room was very great.
They have seen Calvin get angry but angry can’t really describe him now, he was beyond angry.
Calvin then sat beside Dorothy and held her hand praying that she wake up fast.
Finally she woke up and he was very happy and grateful.
“Honey pie, have you eaten?” Dorothy asked.
“No, how can I eat when you have not, Jack told me that you did not eat and was waiting for me” Calvin replied.
“Yes, I wanted to surprise you with something tonight but it has been ruined” she said.
“Yeah, it has” he replied and stared at the door.
“You blame them right?” Dorothy asked when she saw him looking at the door.
“Why won’t I?, they made you to hurt yourself”
“Please don’t blame them hubby, it was actually my fault” she said.
“No, it is their fault and they are going to pay for it” Calvin replied.
“You can’t beg on their behalf so just rest” he added.
“Honey pie, I..”
“Give it a rest, Doll” Calvin interrupted.
“I wanted to say that I am hungry” Dorothy said.
“Oh, they are microwaving it, exercise some patience”he replied.
“Okay, Honey pie”
The food later came and Calvin started feeding Dorothy, she declined at first but he was more stubborn than her.
In the end, she later agreed and Calvin started feeding her, “why are you not eating?” Dorothy asked him when she saw that he wasn’t.
“I will eat when you are done eating, say ahh” Calvin replied, trying to feed her.
“I cooked this food for you so you are going to eat it or else I am not eating anymore” she said.
“Okay fine, I will eat”he said and eat the first spoon.
“Yeah that’s more like it”
They finished eating and Edward laid on the bed with her, “I am so sorry about today, Doll” Calvin said.
“It is okay, I am only angry because the surprise was ruined” Dorothy said.
“Yeah about the surprise, what is it?” He asked.
“It is not going to be a surprise anymore if I tell you” she replied.
“Did you just use my words on me?”
“Yeah, I did” Dorothy said.
“But don’t worry, I will plan it some other time” she added.
A knock was heard at the door and Calvin asked the person to come in.
The butler came in and said that Mia was home and wanted to see Dorothy.
She wanted to get up but Calvin held her down and told the butler to tell Mia that she is resting.
“Okay Boss” Jack replied and left.
He went back to the living room where Mia was and delivered the message.
“Oh, my poor Doro must have hurt herself so bad” Mia said.
“The doctor said that she was fine, so there is no need to worry” Jack assured her.
“Okay, thank you” Mia replied and walked towards her room.
She met Levi on the way who was returning from taking Edward to his room.
“How is she?, I hope that she is fine!” Levi asked.
“I didn’t get to see her, she was resting” Mia replied.
“Oh.. I thought you met her so that mean that you will be sleeping alone, wanna sleep in my room?” Levi asked.
Mia wanted to reply but suddenly Kelly came out of nowhere startling them.
“You little.., I thought you left” Levi said.
“I did not and you Aunt Mia, we have a lot to chat about” She replied, held Mia’s hand and walked away with her.
Levi had no choice but to go to his room and sleep alone.
“I think what I did is so immature and childish” Kelly thought as they walked towards the room.
“Maybe I should just let them sleep in the same room” she thought.
“Sorry about stealing you away Aunt Mia, go to Uncle Levi’s room we will discuss later” Kelly said to Mia.
“No, it is fine, let’s discuss” Mia replied.
“Thanks, Aunt Mia” Kelly said, they had reached the room so they entered it.
Kyla stared at Edward who was on the bed, when Levi had brought him into the room. She was so disgusted by the smell of alcohol coming from his breath.
“Kyla come here” Edward mumbled.
“No, thanks,” she replied.
“Please, I am sorry, for everything”
Kyla scoffed and replied, “sorry won’t fix anything, Ed. It is too late”.
Just then her phone started ringing, she looked at the called ID and saw that it was Celine.
She can’t answer the call in the room so she walked towards the door to go out only to see that it was locked.
“I can’t let you go” Edward said and she turned to him.
He was the one that closed the door with the remote, “open the door now, Ed”
“No, you are not going anywhere” Edward replied and smiled at her sheepishly.
“Gos, why are you so annoying and stub when drunk” she muttered.
Her phone has stopped ringing but she needed to call Celine back.
Having no other choice she decided to go to the bathroom to call Celine.
She made sure that she locked the door before she called her, “why were you not picking my calls?” Celine asked immediately she answered the call.
“I am sorry Celine, someone was here so I couldn’t answer it” Kyla replied.
“Then you should have left there” she said.
“I wanted to do that but I can’t” Kyla replied.
“Whatever, so what is happenings there now?” Celine asked.
“Well, Dorothy is unconscious now, she tripped and fell” she replied.
“What happened?, I hope she hurt herself badly?”
“I don’t really know but it might be serious because she was taken to the hospital” Kyla replied.
“Miss S, I was actually the one that caused her to trip” she added.
“How did you do that?” She asked.
“She was kinda distressed lately so when I found out that she was coming to the kitchen, I poured some water on the floor and she tripped on it” Kyla explained.
“I told you to lay low, you moron, observe Calvin now and tell how he is, got it?”
“Yes, Miss S” Kyla replied.
“And you better don’t disappoint me” she said and ended the call.
Kyla took a deep breath and came out of the bathroom only to see Edward standing by the door.
“What are you doing here?” She asked, afraid that he overheard her conversation.
Edward gently pushed her out of the way and entered the bathroom, not long sound of vomiting was heard.
Kyla was restless, she was pacing around the room waiting for Edward to come out.
“What lie am I going to tell him?” She thought.
“Shit !, this is so bad”
She waited for Edward but he didn’t come out so she went and knocked at the door.
There was no response so she pushed it open only to find him sleeping on the floor.
She sighed and pulled him out of the bathroom, she then pulled him to the bed and tried to carry him up.
But Edward was very heavy so she couldn’t, she decided to leave him there and climbed up the bed.
“Thank God that he is drunk” Kyla thought and closed her eyes.
