I’m Just His Wife

I yawned because my ear drums seemed to break because of the excessive noise that enveloped where I am now. I exhaled with my mouth. It felt like this was my first time to breathe again. It’s like I haven’t been able to breathe for years because I’m gasping for breath now.

I could also see in the dark so I tried to open my eyes. I opened it slowly but my eyes shot back when I felt my head throbbed in pain. I whispered a soft curse because of that. Just, what the hell? My head feels so painful that I can feel as if it was divided into two! Such a pain!

“OMG! Did you see that, Roxy? Andrea was awake!” I heard a familiar voice shout. I know who it was, it’s none other than Darlyn.

“What ?! Wait … Sure he wasn’t gaping and breathing before but now … Shit! Just wait and I’ll call the doctor!”

Spontaneously one of my hands moved and touched my head. As far as I know, I was not hit in the head by the bullet, so why does my head hurt like this? I almost felt like I was dying of the disease. Who made me do this? Tsk, it’s nice to kill e.

I squeezed my senses and it was effective to relieve my headache at least a little. Hayst, I didn’t know that someone who had been shot in the back could have a headache. was that okay? I was not informed so …

“Hey, girl! Wake up there! You’ve been asleep for three days, hey!” I heard Darlyn say.

I woke up immediately because of what he said. I slept for three days? That was why I suddenly felt very thirsty and hungry.

My eyes were closing relatively but I can still manage to open it properly. I don’t want to sleep again. Three days was enough for me. Gosh, I never slept that long! Only now!

“Your noise …” even though I was a little weak I was still able to say what you said. Darlyn’s mouth really e. Delicious veneer of packaging tape.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“OMG! You’re already awake you witch!” Darlyn even covered her mouth as if she was shocked.

I slightly stared at him. I am gradually feeling more comfortable even though my head and arm were still a bit sore. Seriously, I never thought I would be hospitalized again after a few years. This was the first time in my five years of existence. I always won when it comes on combat battles but now, I don’t know. I had no knowledge of the events after I was shot.

My throat was also dry. I want to drink very cold water. Your lots a lot of ice. I feel like I haven’t drunk water in years. In short, I’m damn thirsty.

I swallowed and blinked emphatically. I couldn’t move my arms and legs so even if I wanted to get up to drink water I still couldn’t do that. Annoying e.

Suddenly the room where Darlyn and I were staying opened and a doctor and Roxanne were spit out who looked even more surprised to see me wide awake. I just averted my gaze from them and stole a deep sigh. I never thought that I will still continue my life after being shot. This was how it feels to be on the brink of death.

“Miss Andrea Steinfields?”

I looked up and was surprised to find that the doctor was lying next to the bed I was lying on!

“Or should I say … Mrs. Rigella De Leon. Am I right?” the doctor smiled at me and removed the stethoscope from hanging around his neck. “I’m Dra. Sofia Andrada, and you’re the VIP patient that was assigned to me. I am also one of those doctors who’s in charge of your past operation.” aniya.

I just nodded slightly. I still wonder why many people in here can recognize me. But I realized that Mommy Jane had introduced me to the staff of this hospital after Ivan and I got married, so maybe someone knew me somehow.

“Let me check you up.” he placed two parts of the stethoscope in his ear and applied a round object that was also part of the stethoscope to my left chest.

Some time later the doctor moved the round object to the center of my chest. I saw him nod and he removed that circle from me as well.

“How were you feeling, Mrs. De Leon?” smiling its question.

“I’m fine. I’m just a little bit thirsty … and hungry.” I barely yawned when I felt the dryness in my throat again. Oh crap, I really need water.

The doctor raised an eyebrow as if he didn’t believe what I said. “Really? We put some dextrose medicine on you, Mrs. De Leon. You’ll have a little headache there when you wake up. were you sure you’re okay?”

My lips lifted to speak but no voice came out. I just averted my eyes and stared. That explains why my head hurts like hell. It’s really good and my head doesn’t hurt so much anymore.

I heard the doctor laugh so I turned to him. “I was just kidding, Mrs. De Leon.” she chuckled again. “But seriously speaking, aren’t you in pain anymore? Or were you feeling bad?” he asked.

I shook. “Nothing. I feel very fine. Like what I’ve said, I’m so thirsty and hungry. That’s bad.” I said and took a deep breath.

The doctor laughed again and nodded. “Oh, I’m sorry for that. You were unconscious for three days, that’s why.” I saw that the doctor had something more to say but suddenly something sounded. He raised his right hand and looked at his watch. “Oh, I forgot this. I have an operation to supervise, Mrs. De Leon. I have to go. But, I will speak to Dr. Agoncillo and ask him to look after you while I’m not around. We have the same expertise, so don’t worry. ”

I just nodded and smiled. ‘thank you, doc.” I thank you.

“Don’t mention it, Mrs. De Leon. It was my job to save lives so you don’t need to thank me. Just to see you breathing and still alive because of me was enough.” the doctor smiled at me again and winked. I notice her being content. She seems to be a jolly girl.

“But still, thank you, doc.” my persistence.

He laughed again. “Alright. I accept your thanks, Mrs. De Leon. I’m touched, alright?” he laughed at the promise. “I’m really sorry. I want to look after you but I have an operation to supervise. Maybe, we can see each other later or tomorrow. I will still check on you.”

I just smiled. “Alright.”

The doctor walked away from me. “I really have to go. I hope you will recover soon, Mrs. De Leon.” it smiled sadly at me and seemed to have said something else but I didn’t hear it because it was so weak. “And also, you can now drink and eat. But you can only eat those soups. Cold water isn’t allowed for you, too.” shit, that’s what I still want but it’s forbidden ?!

“Hmm. Okay.” I sparingly answer.

“Just wait for Doc Creed to come in here. That’s just fast. Goodbye for now, Mrs. De Leon.” the doctor waved at me and hurried out of my room.

I took another deep breath. It was as if I had just once again felt such comfort and peace. You just make me lie down on a soft bed and have no other problems. I just draw different kinds of clothes on my sketch pad and color them with colors that suit them.

That was me before. was Rigella Andrea Crisostomo life princess experiencing life. I had it all then. Everyone’s praise for my supposed beauty and my supposed goodness as a child and member of our family. I was praised by many people before because I was like that. They’re treating me like a precious gem that needs to be taken cared of.

But now it was different. When because of my one mistake the princess Rigella Crisostomo disappeared from their sight. Many people were disgusted at me before because I was too young to be pregnant. That I let myself pregnant even though I know that I was just eighteen that time. My family was in a middle of downfall that time. If only Ivan hadn’t married me, our family might be in the mud now.

We’re in a lifestyle of the rich, well-off and wealthy world. Just a little mistake was bad that people who belong to that level immediately look down on you. The wealthy we met before were very sensitive. They thought that the Crisostomo’s like us were just a bag of dirt. After they got along with us they were able to make fun of us. Just what the hell, right?

But being a mother was the last thing I will regret in my whole life. I was blessed with a kind-hearted and humble son, and that was Ice. My Izen Cedric.

“I texted Manang Lisa. I told her to cook chicken soup. She’ll just bring it later so wait there first.” I heard Roxanne say so I turned to her from my stupor.

He stared at me and then shrugged. He sat down on the sofa and leaned himself in there. I can’t understand how he looks now. He seems disgusted and worried e. Ah, I don’t know.

“were you mad, Roxy?” I asked her.

He turned to me and stared at me again. Seriously, he’s been staring at me more and more. “Wow, good you noticed, best. You’re great.” his sarcastic promise. “And hey, I’m not mad. I’m just annoyed at you. That’s different.” he calmly promised that he just seemed forced. It was still obvious that he was disgusted.

“Why were you annoyed, then?” I seriously question. Tsk, I still don’t like this. I don’t want Roxanne to annoy me.

He sighed and frowned slightly. “Just so you know, best. You worried me too much because you woke up three days before. And that’s not all, huh?” he blinked emphatically and sighed again. “I’m disgusted with you because I’ve stopped you a few times for doing things like that but not once did you listen to me. And most of all I’m disgusted with myself because no matter how hard I try to stop you I still can’t do that done. I feel like I have a flaw too so there you were now, you were shot. ” I sighed when I saw Roxanne’s tears welling up. He averted his gaze from me.

I bit my other lower lip and tried to get up but there were hands that prevented me from doing so.

“Hep! You’re not allowed to get up yet. Jusko, you’re really going to kill us with worry, what?” like Roxanne Darlyn also stared at me. He helped me get back to bed.

Darlyn hugged me and adjusted the dextrose that was attached to me which was a bit messy.
