Episode 29

“Why? Why should I follow you to your office. I didn’t even know you had a job. I thought you were jobless since you’ve been staying at home all this while to make my life unbearable,” She retorted sarcastically, making Jasper speechless.
Jasper sighed and flicked his forehead. Can’t she get what he’s trying to say? Why does she have to act so oblivious? She’s annoying, infuriating, rude and attractive at the same time.
The feelings are just like a turmoil in his heart. He doesn’t understand all these confusing, foreign and strange emotions in his heart. Why was it never like this with Amber or any other lady? Why does he only feel this way towards Sharon?
Ann smiled as she heard Sharon’s words. Perhaps she was just overthinking the whole thing. Cause Sharon doesn’t seem to be interested in Jasper. And well Jasper might just be fooling around. He’ll soon get bored and tired of her.
With this thought in mind, she gave Sharon a smug smile and of course the latter didn’t notice cause she is too busy focusing on Jasper.
“I just don’t want you and Tia to be alone at home. You are not well enough to take care of Tia,” Jasper explained.
“No… I’m not going,” she replied, pouting stubbornly. Jasper sighed again as he heard. Why is she so stubborn?
“Why would you say no? You are going whether you like it or not,” he answered and she glared at him.
“No, I’m not going and you can’t force me to. End of discussion,” she retorted. Jasper smiled as he pulled his wheelchair closer to the bed. He then pulled her closer as if he wants to kss her.
“I can see that your ugly face is itching for another $lap. That first one didn’t satisfy you. Just try anything funny and I’ll design your face with $laps,” she warned him.
“Why don’t you want to go?,” he whispered to her but she heard him loud and clear. “Cause I don’t feel like going. I’ll be fine at home with Tia. Don’t worry I won’t even miss you at all cause I’ll finally get the rest you deprived me,” Sharon told him, smiling innocently.
“That’s it. You are going. No need to stress yourself tomorrow. I’ll dress up for Tia and will also dress up for you if that’s what you are worried about,” he smirked as he said the last statement.
Ann couldn’t take the PDA anymore so she walked out of the room after excusing herself. Lena watched her go and wonder if she should follow since these two lovebirds only have each other in their eyes.
Tia babbled as she kicked her feets and hands in the air. She’s just playing and saying gibberish to herself. Sharon quickly checked to make sure she’s not crying.
Then she turned to Jasper,“I don’t care whatever you say. Just know that I won’t follow you to your office tomorrow. Now go out of this room. I need to take a nap.
As she yawned, Jasper looked at her. What nap? Isn’t she tired of sleeping? Sharon gave him an expression that clearly says WHY-ARE-YOU-STILL-HERE?
She watched in suprise as Jasper turned his wheelchair to the other side of the bed and got into the bed instead of going out.
“What are you doing? I asked you to go out not come to bed. Has your ears stopped functioning like your brain also?” she asked him.
Jasper faked a yawn and answered,“I also want to take a nap. Stop disturbing me.”
Sharon laughed like he had just said the most funny thing she has ever heard. “I talked first so go elsewhere if you also want to sleep,” she retorted.
“This is my room and I’m going nowhere,” he replied. “Then I’ll leave,”Sharon said as she turned to carry Tia. Jasper immediately held her wrists.
“Let me go. What’s wrong with you?,” she uttered as she tried to free her hands from his tight grasp. She was about to carry Tia before until he held her wrists.
Lena coughed and quietly slipped out of the room. She could already tell where this little love fight is gonna lead to.
Tia stopped playing as she watched the hands struggling over her head curiously. She laughed as if she understood what was going on.
“Let me go!”
“No!,” Jasper shouted back at her. Then suddenly he pulled her wrist making her lose composure before falling on him. He immediately wrapped his hands around her waist.
Sharon hit his chest lightly,“You di.mwit! Why did you pull me like that? What if I had fallen on Tia?”
“But you didn’t. She’s okay now go to sleep,” Jasper said as he cuddled her, discreetly rubbing his head against her bbs. Shameless human being.
“Jasper! Are you aware of what you are doing right now!? What the fk do you think you are rubbing that big head of yours on?,” she questioned him.
“Your soft bbs. What else?,” he admitted it without even feeling ashamed.
Sharon struggled to stop her hands from wrapping it around his neck and strangling him. Jasper saw the look on her face and chuckled. It’s such fun to annoy her.
Sharon turned to Tia and told her in a soft tone,“I swear one day I’m going to kill your father and bury him then run away with you.”
Tia only looked at her not understanding what she’s saying. “Sssh… Why are you so noisy? I thought you wanted to sleep so sleep and stop disturbing me.”
“How am I supposed to sleep in this position?,” she asked as she wiggled her body ontop of him. Jasper momentarily cussed as he could feel his little brother reacting.
He turned to his side and naturally Sharon fell on the bed but he quickly wrapped his hands around her and whispered into her ears,“Is this position better now?”
“No, it’s worse than before,” she scowled as she could feel his thing poking her from behind. He seem to like this position very much. Hmm, it’s called the spooning position for all those corrupt minds that wants to know their current position.
“Hmm! You still don’t like this one. Then I’m curious. Do you want us to do something else other than sleeping?,” he asked and she shivered momentarily.
This per.vert! What something else!? She pinched his hand and he laughed softly, the sound tickling her ears. “Just go to sleep okay. You need the rest,” Jasper told her with a sleepy tone.
Then he pecked her hair and soon she could hear his light snores. ‘Hmm! For him to have fallen asleep so soon. He must be exhausted. Lazybones! He’s just staying at home doing nothing except for tormenting me and he sounds so exhausted,’ she thought.
She stared at Tia and pulled her closer. They played for a while as much as her current position could let her and then finally they fell asleep.

“There’s a new lady in his house and life that seems to have caught his attention,” Ann spoke as she held her phone tightly. The fake nice facade on her face is gone.
It’s now replaced with a sinister look. She looks completely different from the nice doctor that had just spoken in Jasper’s room.
“What! How come!? But they never mentioned any new woman in his life. When did she suddenly appear?,” the person she was talking to on the phone asked her.
“I’m also shocked. This is such a headache. We got rid of one b*tch and now there’s another one,” Ann replied sighing loudly.
“Have you been able to get more information?”
“No and I don’t think I can. Cause he has asked me to stay here only for today. I’m leaving tomorrow,” Ann answered.
“God Ann! You have to help me get more information about his legs. The boss really wants to know if he’s crippled or not and why he didn’t choose our hospital for his leg therapy treatment. Boss’s patience is running out of time,” the man told her. His voice sounding harsh.
“I’ll try what I can do. But why won’t your boss give up? This was between him and that b*tch so why is he still after Jasper?,” Ann asked curiously.
“You won’t understand Ann. Just mind your own business and don’t try to poke your nose in things that don’t concern you. Cause it’s a dangerous for you. I’m trying to protect you,” the man told her.
Ann nodded and said goodbye before cutting the phonecall. She looked like she was in deep thoughts as she stared into space. Who is this powerful unknown boss that Jasper has somehow managed to offend?.
