Clara’s P. O. V conts.
Ok! I’m ready! Just then Mr Grande came close to me smiling
“Nuella my child “, he said
“Dad, how are you? “, I said and hugged him.
Mrs Derventes hugged me and her husband touched my shoulders
I left the wife and hugged him too
Mrs Tonia came closer
“Mom you look pretty “, I said and hugged her
“Welcome angel “, she replied
Daniela walked out I wonder why she looked scared I gently hugged her and kissed both sides of her cheek
Wait! It’s now that I am seeing this guy
It’s the cute guy I insulted, the same guy that saved me
Could he be Ryan Dervantes? But if he is the one, why did he let me go when they said I poisoned Anna? No no he can’t be Ryan.
Who Is he? What do I do? Before I could talk he stepped closer to me
“Nuella! Welcome! “, he said
Omg! This guy is so cute I pray I don’t mistakenly kiss him.
Thank God I am on heels no need to lift myself
I gently smiled and kissed both sides of his cheek
“It’s been long “, he said
“Oh has it?”, I replied
Omg! What am I doing? His cuteness is causing confusion for me
Their parents walked In front, my guards stopped at the gate while we headed for the conference hall.
Someone just came to the cute guy right now and showed him some papers so he left with her
I kept walking fast. The parents had already closed the door of the conference hall
I got to the stairs and I looked at my high heel shoes
God pls I can’t fall I have not climbed this particular stair before.
I was about walking up when I saw Diana walking past I was lost looking at her I didn’t know when I mistook a step which made me slip
Omg! I am falling what do I do?
I closed my eyes I thought I have reached the ground.
I opened my eyes again And what?
I am in someone’s arms, Someone caught me. Omg! It’s the cute guy again. I will name him my angel from now on Ryan is my crush and he is my angel he is always protecting me.
His voice jolted me out of my reveries
” if you keep falling like this people will find out that you are not Nuella “, he said
” what?”, I asked
He slipped his warm hands into my hands and helped me walk up the stairs.
I leaned on a balcony and faced him I need to prove to him that I am Nuella
” Hey what do you mean I am not Nuella? “, i said
” i will call you right now Ella “he said
” well my phone is at home “, I said
” well i guess no one will pick “, he said
Before I could talk he placed the call and put it on speaker he brought it closer to me
“Sugaar “, he said
“Hey cutie “, she replied
” where are you? He asked
” i am kind of busy, pls don’t tell me she blew it “, she said
He looked at me
” No love, she is perfect “, he said
“Thank God, thank God, I was so scared. Have fun i need to shoot.
He dropped the call and looked at me.
” so won’t you tell me who you really are. Are you a hired model? “, he asked me
“Well, who are you? i really want to know who you are “, i said
He looked around
“You seriously don’t know me? “, he asked
I bowed my face down a little and shook it in disagreement
” ok tell me who you are and give me enough information that can be used to locate you and after that I will do the same. “, he simply said
I can’t tell you my name or where I work. I insulted you before and I am scared you might fire me. Aarrgh I don’t want you to ever find out that I am the girl who fought with you.
” i started coughing he smiled, ”
“well i am totally identityless I am nobody, don’t worry, sir “, I bowed down and looked around I stood up instantly
What am I doing?
My angel just coughed right now he used his handkerchief but I think I saw blood.
I think he coughed blood. What is this? I am so scared. Why did he cough out blood? Is he dying? Does he have heart issue?.
He hid the white hankerchief
” don’t mind me, I also hate cough, actually I forgot to take my drugs since yesterday. Let’s go” he said
“But take the drug” I said just like my mother shouts at me when I am sick.
He brought out the drug from his jacket pocket. It was a small white bottle filled with tablets
He showed it to my face
“Here madam “, he said
I smiled
He tried opening it but it cut his fingers and it bled
My angel is so soft and careless
Ryan’s P. O. V
I don’t know who this girl is but I love her presence. I don’t know why
I tried opening the cover with thoughts in my mind and I cut my hand
Before I could talk she already took my hands
‘Oh it’s ok “, I said and tried taking my hand back but she wouldn’t let go.
I hate the feeling of care. I forcefully withdrew my hand but she took it again
“It’s really okay. It’s fine, I am used to scars already “, I said and forcefully took my hand but she took it again and made a statement that melted my being
“Shhhhh! I’m sorry! Does it hurt? “, she said with a teary eye
I suddenly smiled with relaxation.
” wait, she said
she opened her bag and brought out a wiper. Although the Mickey mouse purse in the handbag made me smile.
She carefully wiped my hand. Though I looked away in anger she still did it carefully and with her mouth she aired it
I turned to look at her
I felt something different. Apart from Anna someone else just made my heart beat
I looked at her eyes, I swear I feel like I have seen them before
I looked deep into her face. How I wish I can see what is inside that mask.
She left my hand and smiled
” better “, she said
” oh thanks “, I replied
I tried opening the drug again but she took it from me
” i…. will help “, she said
Just then she opened it and smelled it she turned the back and looked around it
” sir.. I think this drug has expired “, she said
” oh really?”, I asked
” But where and when did you get it? “, she asked
” actually it was yesterday at A. G. H. . Is the date past?
“Actually it’s wiped but I think it smells spoilt or just wait “….
Before I could talk she took one of the drugs and put it inside her mouth
Hey, what are you doing? “, I asked
**What is she doing? **
“It’s really spoilt don’t take it anymore “, she took he cover from me. I just looked at her in awe.
” But why did it taste a spoilt drug? You endangered your health for someone you don’t know “, I asked
“You may not know me and I may not know you sir But after the few times i met you, i want to risk my health for you because you are my angel. “, she said.
I have not met such a sincere person before
‘Come let’s go, I said.
We walked out
Clara’s P. O. V
I don’t know what this feeling is
I don’t know who this person is
But he is always there for me when I feel lost, I feel much happiness whenever I see him
I may have insulted him before But now I want him to always be by my side protecting me.
Seeing blood from his lips broke my heart
I looked at him
*Angel, pls don’t ever get hurt*
Soon he opened the door and we walked into the hall to my surprise different dishes filled the long table and every tray was arranged with multiple spoons, knifes and forks
Everybody sat down
I sat down and my angel sat down too facing me
“We decided to let you guys spend more time outside since the food was not ready yet “, Mr. Grande said
” Nuella my dear, eat well “, Mr. Dervantes said.
“Thank you I sure will “, I replied.
Everyone picked their fork and started eating
They knew exactly which fork and which spoon to pick
What do I do now? I might embarrass Nuella and Daniela had been looking at me for a while
Mrs Tonia just changed her spoon
Is there a different spoon for a different food?
I looked at all the spoons on my tray with different shapes
Like four cups for me
3 knifes
What am I eating?
Why all this load? First I wiped my face and decided to face the soup at least there are meats in it
I picked the first spoon Daniela looked at me in shock
I got scared but then I felt someone raising a leg up to my leg under the table I traced it, it was my angel
He shook his head in disagreement and lifted the deeper spoon up with style.
In order to confuse Daniela I acted as though I was looking at the spoon then I took the right one
My angel smiled gently and looked down
I watched him carefully
And each time he wanted to drop the spoon I felt his leg coming up my leg under the table so I dropped mine too.
Mrs Tonia just took chicken she asked me to take one too I wonder how she passed it close to her because it was quite far and I didn’t see her.
“Nuella darling take more chicken ” she said.
” oh ok “, I said
I was still confused when Ryan raised his hands to the second upper section of the table where extras were placed he slowly spinned it and the chicken stopped in my face.
I tried using my left hand to take it but I felt him kick me so I used my right
I dropped one on my plate and returned it to te table
” pass it to me darling i don’t have strength “, Mr. Dervantes said
” i spinned the table just like Ryan did but mine was faster it was about to cross Mr Dervantes but Ryan gently held it and it stopped in front of Mr dervantes
He is really my angel I said to myself.
I grasped the jug with my right hand and tried pouring water into the first cup in my roll but I felt his leg coming up again I chuckled gently
This was getting romantic
I looked at him and he lifted the second cup.
I dropped the first and took the right one so I poured water into it.
Soon the tables were cleared
Everyone lifted his his/her cup for wine and I watched him and lifted the 3rd glass on my table. He smiled
Wine was shared
I stupidly swallowed everything without a toast. The whole family looked at me with their glass up.
I got embarrassed but my angel just swallowed his own too and Daniela joined us
Everyone laughed
This act really touched my heart. I looked at him and he looked down at his plate
” lazy, impatients youths, Mr. Grande said
“I swear Nuella just scared me, Mr. Dervantes said
And everybody laughed.
Daniela’s P. O. V
Please Nuella just go, do not visit Anna please
” mom, dad, thanks?”Nuella said
” welcome “, they replied her
She checked her time and covered her mouth with her han. I wonder what’s wrong
“I’m glad I came dad but I really need to start leaving, i will visit soon “, she said
” ok darling
” good bye dear
” do visit before you go home
They all replied her.
Just then Ryan spoke up
“Nuella you won’t even visit your friend. That’s so unlike you, Anna will be so mad “, he said
” How can I forget? I will visit her right now
She walked out and I followed, my dad’s assistant followed with the camera since everybody can’t size the room.
Ryan, his dad, my mom, his mom stayed up and watched from the projector
They saw us starting from when we entered Anna’s room.
‘ Anna, it’s been such a long time “, she said
But Anna didn’t respond, I smiled
Nuella turned to Doctor Tim
“Give me her health record ”
My dad turned in interest.
Doc Tim gave it to her.
” mmmm Anna has been like this for a while it is not usual, it was only an accident.
She handed her bag to her assistant and turned to Tim
“Tell me Doc Tim what treatments are you using? ” she aske
“Well she has passed the stage of treatments, all we give her now are energy drugs that would give her strength to wake up “, Tim said
“Which energy drip? there is oral, master, misclux, privlime, there are so many “.
“Just normal energy drips we use in the hospital “, he said
“Oh ok like this one here. She said pointing to the store.
She walked to the store and picked a bag of drip
“Ok, this is good “.
Doc Tim smiled
“So do you mix anything to these drips “, she asked
“Well, no, we just give it her like that “, Tim said
“Oh, you just hang it like this “, She said while removing the old one and hanging the other
Doctor Tom nodded
she picked he microscope
“Don’t mind me I’m just being a doctor. So how come the color is different? You just said you didn’t mix anything with it”, She said.
“What are you saying? Are you planning to place something on m? Scientifically and medically drips can change colour, if you want you can look at other ones”, he yanked
I wonder if Ryan is looking at this right now as well as his mom.
Mr Grande took the microscope and looked at other drips and then comfirmed that they were all different.
” it might be the weather Nuella “, he said
Doc Tim was fast today to infect them all.
Nuella smiled
” oh is i? I am sorry, so I hope you don’t mind me borrowing this “, Nuella said as she ran out with the drip.
The camera holder still followed her so those upstairs won’t miss a detail.
Nuella ran into the hospital store and took another drip exactly the same.
She held it and ran into the lab
Where Ethan the lab technician sat.
” hey lab boy, I want to see the difference in the reactions of these two drips on the animal samples” she said
” rats or squirrels? He asked
” they are all the same right? She asked him
” yes sure they can all be compared to humans “, he replied
” ok do it, She said.
Ethan carefully injected little quantity of the drips into the animals in the glass and before few minutes one rat died and the other was still jumping around
He turned to Nuella
” it died due to weakness and the only drug with this pure colour that can cause this reaction madam is “.
“Hyemaclux”
“Hyemaclux”
They both spoke together.
Mr Grande was wowed
I am dead Nuella spilled the beans.
” Sir we don’t know how it happened, may be it was the drip changers who sneaked into the room. Doc Tim said
” From now on, you will no longer take care of Anna, Doctor Tony is now in charge , Mr Grande said
“But Tony has not completed his training in R.D”, Tim said
” it will be cut short “, he said.
“All the drips in the room must be removed
“New drips will arrive from India and she will only use that.
“Security will be tightened and I will start my investigation, the offender must face my wrath. “, my dad said.
My dad hugged Nuella
“Thanks my child “, he said
Nuella checked her watch and waved at us.
she walked out in haste
Her guards joined her
Ryan’s P. O V
I was crazy, it’s the same girl the same girl I saved, the same girl who kissed my cheek, the same girl who stepped on me, the same girl just saved my life from expired drugs, the same girl just saved Anna, but I never see her face.
I want to see her face I want to know who she really is
I ran out after her. I got to the hospital’s gate but she was gone no sign of her.
I really want to see her face the same girl who made my heart beat again.
who is she? She has been protecting me and my loved ones, she is my angel.
