My Unique Goddess: AZALEA

Chapter 63:Patience

Azalea have a fear of hospital but she tried to fight it. Right now she is shaking to death but she won't let anyone know about it. She keeps casting out from her mind her mother's death in the hospital. She tried to focus on something else.

She looked at the dining table and she felt sad. She was wondering if Jack had his dinner already. She can't cook for him tonight but she knows Butler Chan will take care of him.

She looks around and find her room very comfy but then again, this is still a hospital and she really hate being here.

Even earlier they had an argument whether she will stay or not in this hospital. But Riff insisted and use his ability of persuasion like a true businessesman and persuaded her. They did have a debate but in the end she lost and agree.

Thinking of everything that happened today she was lost in her own thoughts. Then suddenly the door swings open and Riff came in. He is looking at her while heading to her direction, he flashed her a smile.

"How are you doing?". He ask in a soft tone.

"I'm fine, do I really need to stay here?". She ask him like she's very bored.

"Just stay for tonight". He is looking in her eyes and feels like they are absorbing him.

"Where's Cori?". She tried to look away from his gaze. She didn't see Cori after she was confined.

"He said he'll going to fetch your phone, he'll be back soon". He pass his message that Cori left to him.

"I thought you send him away". She said honestly.

Riff was surprised. 'Send him I'd rather be friend him, he is a good source of information regarding you". He stated in his mind.

He also thought that she's too honest. Maybe she's the type of person who says what's on her mind.

"Why would I do that, I think he is your trusted man I will let you keep him". He said grinning.

Azalea got confused by his last words. It sounds like she needs a permission from him before she can keep someone or something by her side. She thought he is a very controlling man.

"You have no right over me". She reminds him.

"For now". He simply answered and smiled mischievously to her.

Azalea frowned. She feels danger whenever she's around him, but what kind of danger?..... She doesn't know yet.

"Time to sleep". He said after sitting beside her bed.

"I'll sleep after you go". She feels unrelaxed specially now his very near.

"No, I will stay and watch over you. You might fall to a bad dream at least there's someone here to wake you up". He explained to her. Then he started to tuck her inside her blanket.

"What are you doing?". She was surprised by his actions.

"Tucking you in, my mom used to do this when I was young, she said I can sleep better like this". He is smiling while telling her story about himself.

Azalea became calm but confused. She always thought of him as a self centered, egoistic person but right now there's something in him she thought, sweet.

.....

Jack's mansion.

Jack came home and he is expecting his little wife to still be awake and waiting for him just like the other night.

He head straight to his living room and to his dismay no one is in there only the untouched rubix cubes and a frame that are still laying on the floor.

He called for his butler.

"Where's your madam?". He ask him while his forehead is in deep wrinkles.

"The madam hasn't arrived yet and she hasn't called either". He already jump to his next answer though the question hasn't ask yet.

Jack look at his wristwatch and found out that its almost midnight and she's not home yet. Maybe she'll be home late than him. He recall the time when she almost sleeps in her car when she got home at 3 am.

'I'll try to wait for her for a while'. He decided.

Time flies and it's already morning. Jack found himself sleeping in his study room. He rose up and rundown stairs.

"Good morning master would you like to have some breakfast now?" Butler Chan greeted him.

"Where's your madam?". He was expecting she's already home.

"The madam hasn't arrived yet". He replied.

Jack took his phone and made a call.

"Find Azalea now". He is very worried. She didn't even call or text him.

Corbin just woke up when he received Jack's phone call. He wants him to find Azalea that's what he remembered before he hang up.

"Well good morning to you too, sir". He said annoyingly to his phone.

He is still yawning and stretching his hands. 'What a day, and what did she do now'. He's mind is running a lot of W's questions. But the sure thing is going to happen is the chaos in his kingdom, again. He is angry for sure.

He started to contact a lot of people. He need all the eye he can get. Any information regarding to the elder miss of Son is acceptable to him.

"This will be a rough day". Corbin said to himself out loud.

At the hospital.

Azalea woke up with a headache and a body pain. The bruised in her face is a bit swollen. She rose up and head straight to the bathroom.

"Damn!, how am I going to go home now?". She's very worried when she saw herself in the mirror.

The bruised in her cheekbone is a bit swollen and it made her left eye squint a little bit. She tried to hide it with her hair.

She went back to the room to look for her phone.

"Oh your awake, good". Riff is holding a basket of fruits in his hands.

"I'm leaving!". She said quickly.

"What?".

"You heard me".

"But the doctor isnt....."

"The hell with them!". She cut him off and hurriedly took her belongings to the bathroom.

It took her a few minutes and when she returned she's already dressed and ready to leave.

"Azalea hold on". Riff grabs her hand and he tried to stop her.

"Let go of me". She is trying to be calm. Though she's still grateful to him and she don't want to disrespect him but she needs to leave.

Riff let her go and raise both of his hands as a sign of surrender.

"Okay, okay. I won't hold you back but before you leave, can we have a breakfast first, we didn't eat last night, I'm famished". He explained to her calmly.

Azalea sigh and just nod. She is dumbfounded she can't really tell what's running to his head but she is sure of one thing. 'This man's patience is quite remarkable' she thought.

But the truth is, Riff DePinaults patience is as short as a matchstick but for her, his patience seems to be limitless.
