Married at 19

Chapter 21



Chapter 21

It was 7.32 am and I still have about 2 hours before my class started. Bella helped me to finish my

works and I felt bad of it. She even fell asleep here, uncomfortably that made her fell sick.

It was all my fault.

I gently lifted her so and carefully enough not to wake her up then slowly walked towards her room

upstairs by carrying her on my arms, so she could rest comfortably.

Surprisingly, Bella is surely light enough, trust me. I didn’t lie at all, because I barely us any

strength to carry her at all.

I put her down carefully on her bed then pulled up the blanket to cover her cold body.

I’m so sorry, Bella, because of me you fell sick now. I slid some of her stranded hair away from

covering her beautiful face. That’s it, I will find her medicines, but wait I just can’t leave her here alone.

What if something bad might happen while I was out.

I took out my phone from my pocket and googled something about to cool down her high fever. I

could see her sweats formed around her forehead and she even mumbled gibberish too.

“Found it!” I accidentally said it out loud when found something useful on the internet. As

instructed, I took a piece of clean towel and put it in a basin that filled with cool water. I sat beside her

who was still asleep and carefully put the wet towel on her forehead after squeezed some water out of

it.

Alright....I already done the first step. But the second and the fifth step are both a bit disturbing and

awkward which umm…I need to undress her and wipe her body with wet towel. I just can't do that to

her. I will skip it, unless her fever still high.

Gladly we have an air purifier which I could turn it on so, there will be fresh air around her room.

“There, everything runs smoothly,” I said to myself while looking at Bella who seemed a lot better

than before. "Oh…I need to buy something for a while, please wait for me, Bella." I said while held her

warm hand. "I'll be right back."

My class will be start about an hour more so I think I will skip it, but I will send my assignment first,

of course. I rushed to my room which opposite to hers to take a quick shower then put on some clothes

before went to the basement lot. I drove the car to my campus and dropped my assignment at my

lecturer’s office sneakily, so that I wouldn’t not caught up by him. I don’t want to meet him or it will be

hard for me to bluff a reason why I want to skip his class for today.

Afterwards, I drove my car to the nearest grocery mall to buy some ice popsicles and also the

yogurts as stated in an article on the internet. The old woman who kept trying to sell her product at the

fruit section caught my attention then. She called for me to taste the pear fruit sample which she

arranged neatly on the small table in front of her.

"Here young man, this pear is really good. Try it." She said to me while handed me a small sample Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

of the fruits.

I curve a smile to her, "Does the pears is good for sick people? I mean, my wif....my friend has a

fever, very high fever....can it cool down her temperature?"

"Yeah...of course it is. Pears will prevent someone from getting the sore throat and also known as

a nutrient supplement for people having fever."

"Really?" I think I should buy it for Bella. "If you say so, I'll take five of them."

"Here you go, young man." The old woman handed me the fruits. "Have a nice day."

"Thanks."

Alright....I have all of them now. It is time for me to buy the medicine for a backup, if her fever still

high.

I returned home as fast as I can so I would be there when Bella needs my help or something. But

she was still asleep as I took a peek inside of her bedroom upstairs. I changed my clothes inside of my

room then went to her room again to check for her condition.

"Bella....." I woke Bella softly.

She cringed her face a bit, maybe she was in so much pain.

"Hmm....N-Nathan..." she weakly said my name. "I-is it the time.... *coughs*.... for a meal now?

I....I think I should.....*coughs*..... prepare something for you." Her voice sounded a bit sore.

She tried to get up from the bed, but I stopped her. "Just rest, Bella. You have a fever now. Please

don't worry about me. I can handle myself."

"B-but..."

I cut her in along with a smile, "No buts.....just rest okay."

She nodded as she obeyed me. "Here, I bought you pears. It’s good for you. Try it." I took a small

plastic box of the pears which I asked the old woman to cut them nicely for me. Bella tried to move but

she seemed too weak. So, I helped her to sit on the bed and fix the pillow for her to make her more

comfortable. “Here...I bought it special for you." I handed her the plate.

She smiles weakly, "Thank you....*coughs*.... Nathan. You're so nice."

"I was the one who should thank you, Bella." I said to her while supported the small box that she

was holding.
