Nurse him

LOUIS'S POINT OF VIEW

Only I knew, how I told her that I wanted to use the washroom. It was so embarrassing. When I opened my eyes, I could see that she was getting nervous. I said, "I guess I will wait for Manuel to come." She said, "No, it’s okay. You should not wait." She helped me sit in the wheelchair and took me towards the washroom's door. She helped me stand. Her one hand in my lower arm. My hand was around her neck. She took me inside and I said, "You can be out. I can do this much by myself." I knew it was uncomfortable for her too and it would be really very embarrassing for both of us. She replied, "As soon as you finish your work call me."

I nodded and she ran out slowly. I thought she looked cute when she ran like that. After finishing my job there I went out by myself. When I opened the door, she looked at me and scolded me sweetly, "Why did you come out by yourself? Did I not tell you to call me?" She supported me and I said, "I am not so weak also. I can walk by myself at least that much." She helped me sit in the wheelchair and while she was pushing the wheelchair she said, "Doctor said that you should not walk by yourself because the wound is deep and you should not give pressure on that side. Don't do that next time." I said, "Okay… okay." She said me to sleep after giving me medicine and after I slept she went outside.

SARAH'S POINT OF VIEW

After he slept I went out and found Nammy working in the kitchen. I told her about the timings for him to eat. I was talking to her and she also seemed kind enough. I asked her, "Why are here all women who works and only Manuel is the male helper?" She looked at me as she paused her work and said, "He has male bodyguards but they are only called when specially needed. And he is really kind. I was the first one whom he took in when he was not even this rich. Manuel is my son. So, he also helps in some works here. He saw me that day when I was thrown away by my husband with my son. He took us in and most of our female helpers are the same. He brought some and we also brought some as he had allowed us to bring any one who faced the same situation and are in need of help."

I remembered when his father left him and his mother with a mistress. That incident really made a big impact on him. I felt sorry to him and also I felt how great a man he is. I replied, "I didn't know about it. But how about the security measures? I mean do you check everyone's background before taking them in?" She said, "Yes, that is in my portion as Louis trusted us with it. Also all of us stay in one house which he bought specially for us which is not far from here. And before we called him sir but he said to call him casually by his name because we all were elder than him except Manuel." I was touched by listening to her words. We talked for an hour and I took the soup she made and I went inside his room.

I kept the soup aside and woke him up. I smiled to him when he woke up and he smiled back at me. I sat beside him and kept the small table in front of him and kept the soup in front of him. He made a sad face and said, "Oh no, I hate this soup. I don't want it." I looked at him with a warning eyes and said, "You should drink this to get healed faster. Come on have it." He said, "No... I don't want it." He looked into my eyes and asked, "What did you say before I fainted last time? If you tell me the answer I can think of drinking it." I felt my cheeks going hot. I didn't know why but my heart started thumping badly.

I said in a low voice, "I... I told that I love you too." I didn't want to waste any time so I said it. I was feeling nervous so I thought of leaving and when I stood up and was going to go out, he grabbed my hand and said with a big smile on his face, "I... Thank you Sarah. I promise you that I will be there with you every time." I felt my heart beating faster and faster and when he said, "Feed me." I sat again and tried to control myself making myself remember that I was there to take care of him. So I took the spoon and took a spoonful soup, blew on it and brought in front of him and he drank it. I said in a teasing manner, "Didn't you tell you didn't want it?" He smiled at me and said, "I will eat or drink anything you will feed me, whatever it is doesn't matter."

I felt as if he was being too cheesy so I said, "Okay I will help you this time but next time you have to have it by your own." I fed him all the soup and kept the table aside. I said, "Now, I guess it is time to change your dressing." He looked at me and asked, "Are you sure, you can do it?" I said, "Yes, trust me. I can." I brought the medicine kit and then I told, "Open your shirt." He looked at me surprised and said, "I can just pull the shirt up." I replied, "It will be uncomfortable for you like that." He opened his shirt's button and I helped him to take the shirt off and when he was all done, I could see his perfect body. For a moment, I was taken away by the view of his body although he was injured. He teased me, "I guess you are not interested on healing the wound faster." I just looked down and said, "No, I was just... I..." He laughed and I said, "Let me concentrate now." I slowly and carefully opened the dressing and when I was done, after seeing the wounded part, tears fell from my eyes. 'He is like this because of me', I thought to myself. He saw me crying and wiped my tears and said, "Leave it, call Nammy." I had already took the responsibility so I couldn't go back now. So, I wiped my tears which were still falling and said, "No, I'm fine." I took out the medicine and when I was trying to put it on the wound, my hand was trembling.
