I stayed still, making sure I do not wake Alex up. Suddenly the door of Alex's room opened. To my horror, Anna entered.
"HOW DARE YOU BITCH!!? HOW DARE YOU SLEEP WITH HIM!!?"
Alex's eyes opened, his sleep immediately went away.
"Anna!?"
"Yes this is me! I wanted to surprise you but you surprised ME!"
"Don't misunderstand, She's hurt and I need to take care of her."
"She could've slept in her room"
"She fell down again when she slept there, so I had to get her in my room"
"BUT I'M HERE NOW! WHAT WILL YOU DO!!?"
I sat there once again listening every thing. And I am sure Alex will send me back to my room once again now that Anna has returned.
"No she'll stay in my room with me, you can take the other room for some days, love"
I felt both happy and sad at the same time, he said I'll stay with him and then he called Anna love.
"But babe, she's not you real wife or anything. Get a servant to look after her."
"No, love, understand. Mom is visiting in a few days."
"Sure she'll know then that you love me, not HER"
I had had enough, so I sneakily went to the door expecting to get out, my leg hurting very much.
"Sit down"
I thought Alex said that to Anna but soon I realised that order was for me.
"I'll let you and HER talk"
"I said sit down."
I did.
"YOU'RE CARING FOR HER NOW???!"
"Legally she's my wife, I HAVE to care for her, love" He was very calm.
"Ughh, ok then I'll stay at my house. Hope you'll come and see me soon."
"I'll be there soon. Bye love"
"Bye babe"
I sat there tears sliding down my cheek, before leaving Anna gave me a mean smile.
Alex turned to me,
"Sleep some more."
"I'm not sleepy"
"But I am"
"WHAT!!? HOW CAN YOU BE LIKE THAT? JUST NOW YOU WERE ALL LOVEY DOVEY WITH ANNA AND NOW YOU WANT TO SLEEP WITH ME??!"
"Don't shout. Lay down"
"I will not."
"Yes you will"
He came, picked me up and placed me on the bed, laying down and hugging me again. My back pressed to his warm chest. I soon fell asleep, so did he.
I woke up to find Alex laying beside me with his eyes opened.
"You're awake."
"Why didn't you wake me up!?"
"Cuz you were sleeping"
"Usually you go away early in the morning, but today you slept so long"
"Yeah..."
"Why?"
"Now I have to tell YOU why I slept for so long?"
"N..no"
"STOP. BEING. AFRAID. OF. ME"
"I can't"
"TRY."
"..."
"Speak"
"What!?"
"Say something"
"Why don't you let me go?" I asked quietly.
At this he stood up and went into the bathroom. And I fell asleep again. The medicines were too much for me. I had lost weight and my body looked weak.
When I woke up I found Alex sitting on the table in his casuals and glasses, working on laptop.
"Yo...you didn't went to office?"
"No"
"U...um...okay"
I sat up on the bed.
"Ale...um...could you help me get to the bathroom?''
"You can speak my name"
"Ok"
He got up and helped me to the bathroom. I took bath and Alex helped me dress up. And then he brought breakfast in the room. And sat beside me. And we ate. Everything felt real.
