Love Is A Sweet Poison - Chapter 85
Amelia woke up and looked around the room and saw that Sachi was trying to help Ami, “Why don’t you bring it here and I will help explain?”
Ami jumps at Amelia’s voice. Sachi gets up and walks over to Amelia. “How are you feeling?”
Amelia sits up slowly and waits for Ami to come over to the bed. She looks at Sachi. “I will be alright. There is always a risk that I will have an attack. I will recover from this attack like I did the last time.”
Ami brings the embroidery work over. “I was doing as you suggested but then I got to the finis.h.i.+ng details…” She shows Amelia.
“For you, this is actually decent. So what you want to do is use the darker colours to accent the lighter colours.” Amelia takes the tread and demonstrates what she means. “If you do this it’ll make your work stand out. If you do not want to do so then you can leave it as is.”
“No, I will finish this properly.” Ami took the work back and copied what Amelia was talking about. She finally grasped what she was saying. She does a few more st.i.tches then wanders back to the table.
“Do not worry all my work is already complete. I was staying up to help Ami. Would you like some tea?” Sachi watched as Amelia nodded and got up and went to the door and picked up the teapot. She poured some tea for everyone. “This is normal tea. I requested that someone bring it here so that we would be able to relax and drink it together.” She placed a cup by Ami and then poured a cup for Amelia.
“Thank you, Sachi. I am sorry that all I have been doing is sleeping since you came here.” Amelia took the cup and slowly started drinking it.
Sachi sat back down next to Amelia, “It is not a big deal I know that we all need something to drink and you are the one that needs a lot more.” She pulled out Amelia’s medicine. She handed her one package at a time.
Amelia took the medicine one at a time and after the sleeping aid, she
drank the slightly warm tea before closing her eyes again. “Thank you for taking care of me.” She handed the cup back and laid back down.
“It is okay. Anytime you need us we will be here to help take care of you. Rest now and we will see you in the morning before we have to go to school.” Sachi touched Amelia’s cheek and waited until her breathing levelled out before moving back to Ami.
“Finally asleep again?” Ami stopped and drank the tea.
“Yes, it is for the best that she relaxes and sleeps for the rest of the night. I finally told her, she did not completely reject me but now I can move on and still keep her as my best friend. Do you despise me?” Sachi looked at Ami.
Ami looked at Sachi and placed the embroidery work down. “How could I hate you. I know that you were worried about what would happen if you told her but you finally did it and now you should relax. She is happy and finally found the one that will treasure her. We will have to take a step back from guarding her.”
“I don’t know if I can do it. I am in too deep. There is only one of her but that is one of the reasons I said yes to the marriage proposal. You are right once he returns we will let him watch over her.” Sachi had a few tears fall down her cheeks.
Ami pulled out her handkerchief and dabbed her eye and rubbed her back. “It’ll be okay. We will always be friends. Come now we need our rest. I will finish this embroidery on the way to school.”
The two girls laid down on either side of Amelia and fell asleep.
Amelia walked around in the darkness and all the loved ones flashed in her mind as she slept as she smiled. ‘There are so many people I care for now. I am grateful for each and every one of them.’ The dream ended with Gabriel’s face. She opened her eyes. “Mmmmmm, good morning.”
Sachi woke up and was getting changed into her school yukata and Ami was lying next to Amelia hugging her blanket. “Good morning. I am letting her sleep a little longer but I will make sure that everything is ready to leave.”
Miyuki knocks on the door and slides the door open. “Good morning, I have brought breakfast.” She carried in the four trays and took them to the table and placed all the meals down. “Also, the chef is preparing Sachi and Ami lunches for school.” She walked back to the door and brought in the teapots. She quickly starts to pour the tea.
Amelia gets out of bed and touches the yukata that was hanging up. “Did you choose this Sachi? It is very lovely.” The yukata was a pale blue colour that had white lilies all over.
“Yes, I found it in the drawer and since it would match you I thought that it would be appropriate to pull it out and let you decide if you wanted to wear it or not. Do you like it?” Sachi watched as Amelia slowly got up.
“It is perfect! I did not think that it would be so beautiful.” Slowly walking to the yukata Amelia reached her hand out and touched the silk-like fabric. She took the yukata aloof the holder and smiled sweetly. She lets her sleeping yukata slide off her body and slides the yukata on and sets it to look right. She ties the obi then does a small spin. “What do you think?”
“There is of course no words for how you look right now. I am sure that when Gabriel comes home he will h.e.l.l you how beautiful you look. Come and eat breakfast.” Sachi held out her hand and took Amelia to the table.
