UNDER THE RAIN OF LOVE : CHAPTER 51 – 60

Chapter 55
The sun had just rised above the horizon. The water waves had subsided.
Xan crawled out of the water using his elbow. He stopped once and twirled to lay flat on the floor.
” Amy.” He mumbled his wife’s name like a weakling plant. He sucked on his breath as his chest rised and fall.
He covered his face with the back of his palm trying to get the sun away from his face.
He couldn’t explain what had just happened. It was as if everything happened really really fast for his brain to detect every passing minute.
All he could remember was that he was drowned into the deep blue sea.
He remembered covering Amy’s face on his chest as he struggled to pull himself out, thereby suffocating all the pain to himself.
And then he met himself here, already out of the water still breathing and still surviving.
After a while, he sat up and stretched out his arm widely. His body was aching with a sort unbearable pain that could leave a human paralysed.
He looked down only to find his feet spurting out thick bI.ood. He bit his lower lip hard and shook off his already wet shirt out of his body before he tied it around the bI.eeding area.
He looked up, resetting his poor sight properly. He met a small figure laying on the covered sand close to him.
Her leg and head had stuck out of the sand.
” Amy!” He yelled as soon as he recognised her. Despite his poor leg state, he rushed towards where she was laying.
He knelt down and held up her head.
” Amy!. Sweetheart, can you hear me?” His eyes slowly bent. He picked up her hand and checked her pulse.
She was still beating, but slower than usual. Her breathing process had also retarted as well.
Her stomach had swelled, turning into a strong shiny ball, from gulping too much water all in one force.
” Amy. Don’t worry. I’m going to save you okay. You have to stay strong for us.” He said.
He quickly laid her on her belly while pressing his palm her back gently. She hiccup, throwing up water from her lips.
Xan continued his routine continuously until she was no longer throwing up. After a while, He made her sit up.
She fell her head lazily and xan picked her chin to look into her closed eyes.
” Amy..” He cupped her cheeks dearly.
” Amy. I’m sorry that i tried to put your life in danger. I..i didn’t know what i was thinking. I’m going crazy right now. please forgive me and wake up…” He said.
She didn’t move. She remained stiff in his arms, looking like she was already dead.
After a while, her breathing finally stopped and her body started to turn cold and shivering.
Xan stared at her like he had seen the most h®rrific view of his life.
” Amy!..” He yelled, grabbing her shoulder firmly.
He was astonished. He pulled her up on his shoulder and picked out his phone to call the beach lifeguard.
UNDER THE RAIN OF LOVE : CHAPTER 51 – 60
XAN’S MANSION.
Mrs qin leaned on the wardrobe. She sighed and tamped her feet as if waiting for an endless course.
Soon, the door pulled open and mrs lewis causally stepped in, rubbing her dry eyes.
” Why did you wake me up this early in the morning?” She asked, leaning herself to the wardrobe as she stared at mrs qin.
” Where’s the key to my wardrobe?” Mrs qin asked as she faced her.
Mrs lewis chuckled and met her gaze.
” Your wardrobe?. Or the one you claimed from me?” She asked.
” I want to dress up for today. Where’s the key!!” Mrs qin yelled.
” Chill, mrs queen. I told you already. This closet will be locked until i wish to open it. As far as this is my son’s house, i do what i want.” She said.
” Do you want trouble this morning?”
” I was searching for trouble, so yes, i want trouble.” Mrs lewis hissed.
” I give you thirty minute to open up this wardrobe before I’m back. If not…” Mrs qin gave one hard stare at her and walked away.
Mrs lewis hissed and sneered at her as she walked out. As soon as the door closed up, she walked over to her pillow.
She had hid the key there without her notice. Opening it up, she was astonished not to have find it there any longer.
” Wait. The key was supposed to be here, right?” She asked herself. She remembered dropping it in her pillow last night, how come it suddenly disappeared.
She ran over to mrs qin bed and searched for it under her pillow as well but it wasn’t there either.
” But?. How come it’s not here.” She continued to rumble to herself, scratching her confused head.
She ran helter scatter, all over the room to search for it. She pulled up the bed cover, searched the sink, the table cabinet, inside the toilet hole…
Everywhere inside the room.
It was just no where in existence. At the end, she decided to break the lock with her heels before anyone would find out and blame her for being a careless human.
On getting to the wardrobe, she pulled the handle quickly and was suprised with how it got opened.
The wardrobe wasn’t locked, afterall. Someone tricked her.
She sat down on the bed, heating up as she blamed herself for being very stupid.
” So this woman pranked me and made me search all over the room for a key that was with her. When infact, the stupid thing was open!” She yelled and angrily threw her heels at the door.
She stumped out of the room and arrived at the kitchen where mrs qin was cooking.
” You, this woman!” Mrs lewis yelled. ” You had the key with you all along right”
” Good morning, mrs lewis. I don’t know what you are talking about” Mrs qin said and laughed humorously as she stepped out of the kitchen.
Mrs lewis frowned and crossed her arm over her chest. Her gaze went over to the food she had just finished cooking.
She knew everyone would eat out of this breakfast this morning and so, a cunningly evil thought ran through her head.
She brought out the salt container and the rest of the other ingredients, adding too much of everything till to her heart content.
” Phew. I’ll just pity her and not finish the whole content inside the food.” She said and laughed.
She dusted her arm and tasted the meal. Her face scowled up quickly, she coughed and drank some water.
Afterwards, she went over to the water jug and brought down the paper spray.
” I’m not a wicked woman. I’m just giving justice to who it is needed of.”

The whole family began to step down the stairs in one accord.
They arrived at the dinning and everyone took a seat while they waited for the maid to plate down the sumptuous meal.
” I could inhale the sweet food right from the bedroom, mrs qin. You must be a really good cook.” Mrs lewis said.
” Sure, thank you.” Mrs qin smiled.
The maid came to drop breakfast on mrs lewis table but she stopped her.
” No, don’t worry. I don’t eat food prepared by her.” She said and mrs qin hissed.
Vixen picked his fork and hastily ate from his plate. He stopped only to realise something was different and strange about what he was eating.
He instantly stood up from his chair, palming his mouth as his eyes bulged out, turning red at the corner
” I’ll be right back.” He mumbled, running out of the kitchen.
” What’s wrong with him?” Mrs qin asked worriedly.
” I guess he’s having his usual morning disorders” Katrina rolled her eyes as she ate out of her spoon.
She quickly picked up her serviette wrapper and threw up everything she had eaten.
” What the h’ll was put into this food!” She yelled and picked up the jug of water to drink out of it, only to find her tongue bvrn like it was set on fire.
” Pepper!. Ahh…Fk!!” Katrina yelled as she jumped to her feet.
” How…How come?. How come all of this happened to my food!” Mrs qin said spitting back into her plate.
” Who are you trying to poison, mrs qin?. If you can’t cook why don’t you let the cooks do their job.” Katrina yelled.
” I’m sorry dear. I’m so clueless of what actually happened here. I tasted my food before i left and it wasn’t as bad as this” Mrs qin said.
” Reset your brain!. You added too much, just too much of everything!. God, I’m never eating anything from you again!” She yelled and stumped out of the kitchen.
Mrs qin took a sip out of the pepper water and she instantly held her chest as she coughed.
” Mrs qin…Mrs qin. What are you doing to your inlaws?” Mrs lewis asked, standing up on her feet.
Mrs qin turned to glare at her.
” Mrs lewis. Are you behind this?”
” Behind what?.” Mrs lewis asked and laughed out like a mischievous wtch before glaring at her.
” You are a woman, mrs queen. Just say you can’t cook and stop blaming people like me.”
” Mrs lewis. This is so unfair!. This is unfair, how can you make those kids think so negative of me!” Mrs qin yelled as she cleaned up her wet eye lids.
” I tell you, i would have enough time to deal with you today. I still have six more days here, so it’s either you leave or i leave.” She said.
” I’m not leaving!. Even if the whole house is against me, I’ll still have my ground in this house!” She told her.
” Well then. We’ll see about that.” Mrs lewis snarled.
The door opened and Vixen tripped into the kitchen, pinning his eyes at his phone.
” Xan just called.” He said and turned to face them.
” He’s on his way home?” Mrs lewis asked.
” No. He said he’s in the hospital with Amy.”
” Did anything happen to Amy?” Mrs qin asked, coming forward. The next reply felt like it was taking him ten hours later to reply.
” I also asked him the same question. He said she’s fine now. But he needs everyone at the hospital.” He said.
” What are we waiting for. Let’s go quickly.” Mrs qin said and everyone rushed towards the door.
