I will Love You Forever - Chapter 91

Derick stood by the door blocking the exit. I blinked twice confused about why he was here again.

“You… Do you need something?” I stared at him quizzically. For all I knew, I already apologized to him so what more did he want and why was he standing in my way?

He tucked his hair behind his ear and gave me a smog look.

“Can you move aside?” I asked knowing full well that he was doing this on purpose.

He looked at me from head to toe but still didn’t move an inch. I didn’t understand why the other students weren’t saying a word. It was as though what he did was fine by all of them.

“I need to leave. Why are you standing here?” I was getting frustrated and had to go to the cafeteria for lunch. Asides from that, I still had to get to the head of the department’s office.

“And what if I don’t?” he asked annoyingly and looked at me condescendingly.

Kel suddenly spoke up “But…!” he turned and glared at her shutting her up instantly.

He turned his eyes to me and smirked annoyingly. He raised his hand and in the next second, the phone in my hand fell to the ground.

I glared at him realizing that he was the one who pushed it off my hand. Kel was stupified and couldn’t hold it in anymore.

“What, are you crazy?” she yelled at him in anger. He looked slightly concerned about the phone but didn’t make any effort to apologise.

He looked around the lecture room and realized that everyone had their eyes on him. In the next moment, he cleared his throat and walked away without a word of apology.

I sighed seeing his silhouette disappear and bent to pick my phone up. The screen was broken but I could only sigh in regret that the phone was only a few months old before this untimely demise.

“Don’t pay attention to him. He still behaves as though this is high school.” Kel comforted and u smiled warmly at her.

“Shall we?” she asked and I nodded happily. I didn’t let the phone get to me. After all, I could still make calls some other stuff.

“Yes sure… I’ll just check it properly later.”

I smiled and put it in my bag.

I couldn’t follow Kel to the cafeteria because I still had to meet with the H.O.D. and I was already running late.

I sighed as I walked out the door of the office. I closed the door and walked away after discussing with the head of the department.

I walked to the top of the school roof and squat in a corner. I had a lot of things on my mind and what the H.O.D said just added to my frustration.

I took a look at the paper in my hand one more time. PARENT APPROVAL. I closed the letter and wondered how I was going to do this. It’s not like I had parents I could go to to help me with this neither did I have any relations I know of.

Frustrated, I bent my head on my knee but after a few minutes, I began to feel dizzy. I raised my head and touched my nose, my nostrils were bleeding. It had been a long time since I last felt this way but now, what is this?

I got up and struggled to get down but I wasn’t seeing clearly and I lost my balance.

Someone caught me before I fell but I couldn’t see who it was. His image was blurry and all I knew was this wasn’t a girl but a boy.

“Wake up… Wake up…” the voice faded slowly and that was all I remembered.

My eyelids fluttered as I tried to open them. I saw a blurry white ceiling and when I looked down, I realized the painting was also white.

This reminded me of the first day I ever went to Gerard’s house. When I woke up in Gerard’s house, the ceiling was in the same colour and so was the rest of the house, white.

I tried to move my hand but that was when I felt the pain in my hand. There was a syringe attached to my hand and it was only then that I realized I wasn’t at home but in the hospital.

‘How did I get here?’ I wondered. Slowly, I got up but my head was pounding like a matching drum. “This is one of the days I don’t want to re-live”

I sighed and was about to take the drip off when a nurse walked in with a tray with kits.

“What am I doing here?” I asked the nurse and she kindly responded to me.

“You were brought here by a friend of yours from school. Thanks to him, it might have been severe.” she smiled warmly as she said every single line but my brain could not comprehend.

I blinked my eyes multiple times trying to understand how I got a male friend from school.

She checked some things then took out the drip. “Please wait for the doctor to come and check if everything is fine. I’ll be back soon.”

I nodded tiredly the placed my head on the headrest. I have been sick since I was born and that was all thanks to my genetic makeup.

Unlike other kids who had the luxury to play under the snow and sun, my childhood was mostly behind closed doors and under my parent’s supervision.

My parent loved me dearly but I had sickle cell anaemia and that was the reason for my staying indoors during harsh weather.

I could tell that my parent loved and cherished me and that was all I needed. I was told about my condition when I was very young because they didn’t want to keep it away from me but even at the age of 23, I was still falling ill constantly and that was all thanks to my genetic makeup.

The door pushed open and a man I white coat. I knew he was the doctor and forced my eyes to open properly.

He walked closer to my bed and explained my condition to me. “Miss, how are you feeling now?” he started off with a polite question.

I smiled faintly and nodded “Fine.” my head was still foggy and I was still feeling a weird.

“Miss, a friend of yours rushed you here after you lost consciousness but we couldn’t find your phone to know who your guardian was. We reached out to the school for the information but they wouldn’t released the information even after knowing that it was from the hospital. Do you probably know someone we can call?” he asked politely but I shook my head.

Although I knew Gerard’s number by heart, I didn’t want him to know that I was in the hospital because that works let only make his worried.

“The friend you spoke about… Is he still here?” I asked hoping that I would be able to get out using the same medium which I came in from.

“No… He left already. He had to return home before his curfew.” immediately the doctor said the word curfew, I remembered I also had a curfew and had to be home on time.

My eyes widened and I immediately sat up. I put my legs down and wanted to leave but the doctor held be back.

“Miss you can’t leave just yet. You aren’t fine yet.” he explained but I had to get home before Gerard gets furious.

I pursed my lips and decided to explain to the doctor. “I have to be home now and my guardian would be worried sick already.” I could possibly say that my husband would be worried so I just used my guardian instead.

He nodded in understanding and seeing the panic on my face, he knew that I wasn’t faking it. “Wait here, I take you home.”

The nurse turned and looked at him surprised. I was exactly surprised because it was not normal to see a doctor who is willing to escort his patient home but I was grateful anyway.

He didn’t take too long before coming back in a normal cooperate wear.

We both hurried to the car and although he was asking me to walk slowly, I couldn’t bring myself to do that because I knew it was way past my curfew.

“Thank you.” I thanked him as he drove home. It’s not every day you get to meet someone as kind as him.

“It’s nothing,” he responded with a smile and I sighed.

Soon, we got to Jordan Fitz “You can stop here. I’ll just walk home.” I didn’t want to take too much of his time and that was why I requested this.

“You don’t have to worry. I’ll take you home. Besides, I want to have a chat with your guardian.” he smiled and drove into the estate.

I directed him to where the house was located and he drove straight up.

Gerard was just leaving the house when he saw a car parked outside the house.. He raised his brow seeing Ayla in the car with a man.
