Ethan...
"Good evening ma'am Su, ma'am Steph, Sir Ethan "
She smiled after the greeting ..she has this spell bound beautiful smile on..
I like it..
"Good evening Nurse Ariya , you came"
Mum smiles back.
"Yes ma'am . Like I'm to do this everyday remember?"
" yeah right"
Today she takes me with support to the room herself .
I think I might get used to this
She put me to sit and help me lay down my spine. I just couldn't help starring into her dazzling eyes.The massage session of today was so good ..I wouldn't dare say this loud but I like the feel of her hands . I smile to myself on this thought .
" is everything ok sir?"
She asked when she saw me unconsciously smiling ..I had to just adjust that smile to a serious face ..I don't see myself answering this question.
"Yeah , yeah it's all good"
"So sir is there any improvement on any part?"
She presses on with her questions.
"Yeah my arm and legs pain a little less now"
"What about your neck?" She asked seriously.
"I think it needs more effort it's like it's getting worse ..maybe you should try massaging it again" I pretended.
"Worse?!!" She asked .i think I might have crossed the line ..She isn't finding this funny.
"Come on can't you take a joke? Just messing with you..but seriously can you massage the neck again?"
"I would if that's what you need"
I am drowning now in the spell of her touch ..I don't want her to stop.
After the session , Mum tries to steal her for supper again.
" I'm really sorry ma'am ,I would have loved to stay for supper but I have another patient to cater for today and it's already late."she explains
"Ok I understand maybe next time then."
"Definitely ma'am "
A smile curved at the right side of her lips.
"Take care dear girl"
"I will ma'am "
I'm sitting in my chair not having anything to say .. well I'll see her every day so it's not like this the last time I'll see her.
Just then Coach Hugi comes in by passing Ariya by the door post.
"Nurse Ariya? " offering his hand for a hand shake and putting on a broad smile..she takes his hand and shakes too.
" are you done for today?"
"Yes Sir ,I'm actually heading to my other patient "
"Ok take care then" he concludes before completely getting into the house and extending his greetings.
"Mr Hugi?" Mum called his name taking his right hand in both her hands before shaking them .
"What a surprise"
"Yeah I have something very important to share with Ethan"
"Great you are just in time .Join us for supper and we can talk about it over supper "
At once I knew what he wants to say but this is really bad timing ..Mum will suffer a heart attack if she knows I risk my life for money. If only our minds could connect I'll just tell him not to say anything just yet..I wore this scary guilty face on.
"Ethan are you hurt?"
She cuts through my thoughts .
"Yeah ,Mum I'm fine"
"Then have a sit let's eat"smiling.
"I'm glad to see you are improving in health Ethan"
"Thanks Coach"
"Nurse Ariya isn't a waste of money"
Like stop mentioning her already ..I don't even like how he shook hands with her earlier..
What I'm i even saying? i laugh at my thought ..Ariya and I ain't even a thing.
"She's good Sir "
"Great.. so Ethan about the money,"
I watched as mum froze to the sound of that. This isn't gonna end well. She gets too involved in the conversation .
" what money ?" She asked sarcastically and just then I dropped my face into my palms.i know how this is gonna end but it's far from a nice ending..I'm so stupid ..I should have told her what the hell happened before I was out there in the hospital fighting for my life ..I mean if I were a mum I'll be mad too ..it's already become ..I don't know how to safe this situation.
Coach Hugi is already confused ,I bet he was thinking I'd already discussed this with my family..well he thought wrong .im such a lime brain.
"Ermmm you have not told them yet Ethan?
"Told us what?" I can already see a frown glaring up her face when she hasn't even heard of the situation yet..I'm so screwed.
"Mum there's something I was supposed to have told you and aunt long before now"
"And what's that?"
I clear my throat to start explaining , not sure of how they were gonna receive what I'll say.
