I've Been With My Old Man

CHAPTER 7~ You're weird

Yherie POV

One week had passed and Kelvin always stay with me in the hospital. We've never been together in a close room for a night but it did happen here.

At first, I can't sleep well knowing that we will spend the night together. I told him that he can stay in the hotel nearby but he refused.

I'm kinda bothered about Kelvin's work. Every day I asks my inner self He's not going to work?

Lately, I'm getting used by it. Like it's normal to see a living dead sitting right there in sofa.

I rarely talk to him, when I'm taking a med or it's time to eat, he talks to me first. I've never start the conversation.

Yesterday I visited Mr. Lito's room he is okay now, he's conscious already, but he will probably stay longer than I am. His age is dragging the recovery.

I'm glad that we survived the accident and I'm sorry to my parents that I caused them to worry about me.

"Yherie, we run out of fruits. What do you like me to buy?" Kelvin asked.

He stand up and wear a coat, he's really going outside the hospital. Well, this is the first time.

"You can ask your secretary to buy it, like you used to." I said.

Hindi sa gusto ko siyang mag stay dito ha. Sadyang nakakapanibago lang, Utos lang kasi siya ng utos sa secretary niya kaya no need na sa kanyang lumabas at siguro pumunta ng office.

"He's busy" he said.

Ohh? Okay. Kaya pala.

"ahh, uhmm then, just anything." I said.

After ten minutes he came back carrying a bunch of different fruits. He place it in the table. Because I don't have anything to do, I turn on the television. Only the sound coming from the TV is what you can hear in our room. We don't talk when it is not necessary.

I'm into watching tv when Kelvin approached me. He's carrying a plate with chopped apple, orange and grapes. He grab and place a chair in my bed side.

"Say ahh" he said.

"Give me the fork, I can do it" I said.

I'm trying to grab the fork with apple from him but he avoided my hand.

"Tell me, how can you do it when you still have plaster in your arm?" he said.

"Whatever"

I look away from him. Pwede naman yong isang kamay ko pa ah. Di naman ako totally lumpo.

I tried to move my other arm but I can't, mayron paring konting kirot.

"Say ahh" he said again.

Naiinis ako pag nako'korner ako ng matandang to. I always left with no choice.

"I can open my mouth without saying ahh" I said.

"Ahh"

I do it so, I open my mouth but unconsciously it do have sound, ahh. The f**k.

"See!" he said.

He smile. Kainis.

His smiling eyes shows off. He's a half blooded Japanese that's why.

We are both singkit because my Mom and I has the same eyes shape.

I ate everything he gave to me. He said I need to go out in my room and see the sun. I'm too lazy to do that but I needed too. Muscles in my legs and arms are lack of exercise and I think I will loosen a grip when I stand up on my own.

Nurses are already inside my room they brought a wheelchair for me. I thought they will guide me to stand up but Kelvin did it. I'm hesitant at first and I'm sure Kelvin sense it.

When I'm finally settled Kelvin pushes the wheelchair going out in our room and nurses vanished in a minute, they maybe back in their works.

There's a hospital park where patients and hospital staff can spend their leisure time. Full of flowers with beautiful landscape. There's a lot of benches and it's not hot.

"You need to walk" Kelvin said.

I looked back at him. Well, I can't do it alone, it's my first time to walk after the accident. I'm too dizzy when I stand up.

"Here, hold my hands" he said.

He's now standing in front of me, offering his two hands. I should hold it right? Bakit bigla akong nahiya?

Yherie focus.

I tried to stand up on my own but I feel like my body is too heavy for my leg strength. I only did two steps and immediately hold on Kelvin's hand. I'm too scared to fall. S**t, I feel like I'm being pull by the ground.

"I'm dizzy" I complained.

"Okay, tell me when you're ready" he said.

We stand for almost three minutes while holding hands. I wanted to pull off my hand but he's holding it tight.

I starts to walk slowly. At first, he still holding my hand but later on he didn't. He let me to walk independently.

"That's enough, take a rest" he said.

He then gave me my wheelchair after my exercise. We came back to my room.

"Call a nurse!" I said.

He carry me in a bridal style. Even I'm slightly raising my voice telling him to call a nurse, so that they can carry me instead of him but again he never listen.

"Don't pinch me" he said.

Aissh, this idiot. Napapakurot nalang ako sa kanya. Kainis kasi, ayaw ko nga magpabuhat. He lay me on my bed and immediately step back away from me. Bakit? Kelvin is weird sometimes.

He returned to his place, in the sofa and open his laptop. Maybe he's working using his laptop. Well, president is not obligated to always be at office. When He owns the company itself.

"You're heavy" he said without looking at me.

I can't explain it specifically but I can see fires in front of my eyes, I can't walk but I can throw fast. His arms are trying to shield his face when I throws him all my pillow. Boys should not said something like that to girls, it's offensive.

"What?" he asked.

"Tawang tawa ka?"

He laugh at me, tang*n* naman to oh! He really annoys me tell the end.

"Why?" he asked again.

"Don't mess with me, I'm sensitive today!" I said.
