STRONG AFFECTION : Chapter 11 – 20
CHAPTER 18
“Kimora!” Jimin said loudly but she’s gone already, he looked at his hands
“I.. hurt her?” He said and made to leave his spot but the headache gripped him again
He held his head tight and groaned painfully
“Aarrgh!, Darn it!, My head!, Oh no…my head!” He screamed out, kneeling immediately
Cory is just rushing into Jimin’s room when he came across Kimora who’s rushing out with tears on her face
“Lady Kimora what’s wrong?” He questioned but she ran past him without answering and left
Cory rushed into the room and found Jimin on his knees, wriggling and groaning painfully
“Your highness!” He said and rushed to him
His body is so hot when he touched him, he’s sweating too, breathing heavily
“Did you had the dream again?” He asked
“Yeah, just….help me to the bed” Jimin replied and Cory did just that, he took him to the bed and helped him lay down
Now he’s shivering too, shivering badly
“This is bad, I should go get lady Kimora” Cory said and made to go but he stopped him
“No you can’t…not now”
“Why?, She was crying, did something happen?’ Cory asked
“I…hurt her unintentionally so…. don’t bother her…. just…call..call the…the palace.. physician” Jimin said with shattering teeth and Cory rushed out of the room to get the physician.

Kimora rushed into her room and Janis can’t hide his shock to see her in tears
He walked to her and held her shoulders but she cringed immediately he held it
“It hurts, don’t touch” she said slowly, wiping her tears
“You were supposed to go serve Jimin, what happened?, Why the tears?, Why are you hurt?” He asked
” Call Tania please” she said
” Kimora….
“Call Tania I beg you” she interrupted
Janis rushed out of the room and Kimora lay quietly on the bed, chest down
Tania entered some minutes later .
“What happened?, I thought you’d have finished serving and will be watching the stars already, are you sick?” She asked
” Help me take off my robe” Kimora said
“Why?”
“Fast!” Kimora replied
Tania sat beside her on the bed and she tilted up a bit, Tania unclipped her robe in the front and slipped it off her shoulders,she lay back on the bed and her bare back became visible, it’s red!, Red as a result of how it was slammed on the wall, her shoulders are red too as a result of his tight rough hold on them
Tania’s eyes almost flew off their sockets
“Who did this?, How did this happen?, Huh?” She asked
“Just get any of the blue small bottles on the table and rub the content on my back please” she said
” Ok* Tania replied and got the bottle, she poured the content on her palm and rubbed it together before starting to rub it on her back
“Ouch!, Be gentle please it hurts a lot” Kimora whimpered
“I’m sorry” Tania replied, doing it gently but still, she’s moving uncomfortably in pains
“Now who did this?” Tania asked after she’s done
” No one” she replied
” You mean to tell me that this just happened to your back suddenly?, Oh Kimora stop being like this, talk to me” Tania said
” I’ll be fine, thanks for helping… goodnight” Kimora replied, adjusting on the bed and sleeping with her right side since she can’t sleep on her back yet
“Ok…I guess we’ll talk tomorrow and you’ll tell me what went wrong” Tania said, covering her with the cover clothe before leaving the room
“Is she ok?” Janis asked when she got out, he’s waiting by the door
” I don’t think so, her shoulders and back are all red as if she hit them on something and it’s obviously painful” she replied
” What!, What happened?”.
” She refused to tell me”
” Who could have done that, could it be Suzy?” He said
” Honestly I’ve not thought about that” she replied
Janis thought about Jimin, she definitely went to his room to serve his candies but can he actually do this???
“I’ll take my leave, goodnight” Tania said
“Ok, see you tomorrow” Janis replied and Tania left
Janis entered the room and sat on a stool beside the bed, Kimora is sleeping already
“What exactly happened to you?” He wondered
He watched her sleep till the next morning without sleeping a wink.

Next morning**
“The second prince is sick?” Headmaid Ambrosia said surprisingly
“Yes headmaid, the palace physician and his attendants are busy running in and out of his room” Tania replied
” That’s so sad, how’s Kimora doing right now?”
“She’s getting better but her back still hurts a little” Tania replied
” I wonder what really happened to her, she won’t talk to me” Ambrosia said
” Me too, even Janis tried but she said no one did it and that’s just so hard to believe” Tania replied.

Jimin’s room**
“Your majesty” everyone in the room bowed immediately King Jung entered
Sera is sitting beside Jimin on the bed, he’s badly sick
Suzy is standing beside the bed while Janis is beside her and Cory, the physician is sitting on the ground
“How’s his health?” King Jung asked
“He’s not getting better, his pulse is fine though but his temperature is so high and he has been sweating despite the fact that he’s shivering with cold, his face became pale too, I tried acupuncture but it won’t work, he has been unconscious” the physician replied
“What do you suggest right now?” King Jung said
” I have no idea anymore your majesty, maybe the royal shaman should be summoned”
” Go get the royal shaman” King Jung said to Cory
” Yes your majesty” he bowed before leaving the room
” My son will be fine right?” Queen Sera asked
” Let’s just hope for the best your highness” the physician replied
King Jung left the room and Royalty came in
” I told you to avoid everywhere I am!, Why do you like getting on my nerves!” Suzy yelled
” He’s my step brother if not my biological brother, I have every right to check on him so just stop already, Suzy stop this madness!” Royalty yelled back, walking to Jimin’s bed
She sat beside him and touched his pale face gently with care
“Please get well soon, don’t be sick for long I love you” she said
That annoyed Suzy and she pulled her up from his side then pushed her away
“Suzy!!” Queen Sera yelled
“Mother” Suzy replied, breathing heavily
“Out of this room” Sera said
“Mother you can’t do that, how can you chase me out of my brother’s room,… ”
” Now!” Sera said, turning her back on her
” Mum it’s unfair I don’t like this” Suzy said obstinately
” Suzy if I say it the third time you know what I can do” Sera said and Suzy stormed out of the room angrily
“I’m sorry queen” Royalty bowed
“It’s fine” Sera replied
Royalty looked at Janis and Janis nodded
She sat beside Jimin and sighed
“Queen he’ll be ok, don’t be sad” she said
“I hope so, seeing him like this saddens my heart, my lovely son” ..
