"Don’t you think you’d get yourself into an awful lot of trouble if you are this attached to me?" The question left her mouth before she could ponder over it.
"I would rather be plagued by troubles than live a life without you."
Ella’s fingers paused, her heart skipped a few beats.
And something so unfamiliar yet undeniable bloomed in her chest. The words that she would have labelled as the sweet talking of a man sounded like an eternal vow coming from Adrian.
However, Adrian did not seem to know the effect his words had on her. He leaned into her touch while she stroked her hair.
Both of them had dinner together in the hospital room.
Ella did not know how she had survived on the medicinal fluids for the past 3 days yet the moment she saw the sushi, dumplings and other stuff on the food tray, she could no longer control herself.
Well, it was a bit awkward to eat with her Doraemon-wrap-hand so under Adrian’s high intensity gaze, Ella tugged the gauze down, pushing out two of her fingers to hold the chopsticks properly.
Midway through eating, Ella fed Adrian too. Everytime she brought the food to his mouth, he opened his mouth and ate it without any complaints.
After dinner, Ella slumped back on the hospital bed like a pufferfish, completely swollen from head to toe.
Adrian blinked when she waved both her hands at him.
"Baby, baby, pull me up~"
Adrian: "_"
Ella pouted when he did not tug her upwards.
Just as she was about to whine some more, Adrian got up and walked towards the headboard of the bed.
Wrapping an arm around her back, he gently supported her up.
Ella blushed, "Aren’t you a bit too good at flirting?"
"I didn’t flirt," Adrian said with a straight face.
Ella blinked.
"Do you want me to?"
Ella: "_"
"Cough... Baby, let’s take a walk. I feel so bloated..."
Adrian complied with her wishes as he supported her, helping her up.
...
"We are in... Country A?"
The moment Adrian led her out, she had already realized that something seemed different.
As far as she remembered, it was raining these days in Vermilion City. How would it start to snow abruptly like this?
It wasn’t until Adrian opened his mouth and in his most unbothered tone, revealed that—We are in Country A—did everything start making sense.
Ella speechlessly gaped at the small private hospital, surrounded by a little garden that looked more like an apple farm.
"Baby, why did you bring me here?"
"For treatment."
His words were straight to the point as ever.
"But, but, why this place in particular?" Truth to be told, this private hospital seemed to be situated in the middle of nowhere, in an isolated portion in the capital of Country A.
She couldn’t understand why he had to bring her here, out of all the places.
