C54 Chapter 53
However, for the recent years nothing has been resolved its like we are just burning cash for nothing, there's no lead on where Marie is, it's like she's a bubble that suddenly disappeared. It was as if she never really existed and all our memories of being with her were just dreams." I don't know but I felt the pain and sadness that Kenzo felt that all I did was hug him tightly after he told his story.
"Don't be too sad, you will find her soon, just trust me and then I will be here for you, I will support your search for Marie." And then I kissed him on the cheeks.
"I love you." I said in a whisper and then I hugged him tighter. I saw how his sad face gradually brightened until he smiled.
He turned to face me and then he touched my chin and before he kissed me –
"I love you too, Selena." I just wrapped my hands around Kenzo's neck while we kissed as he picked me up and walked straight to my kitchen, it looks like that's where we'll be baptized next. Sigh.
"Selena."
"Selena..."
"Hmm..." I answered and then I pressed myself even harder to feel if it could give me more warmth.
Why is it so cold? I would like to request Kenzo to turn down the AC because I'm not comfortable anymore with the cold that I feel like it's biting my skin. I just feel weak and I don't know why. Can I request a blanket from Kenzo? It was really cold, I even coughed.
"I don't understand how you caught a cold." Kenzo is saying my but I feel bad that I can't understand but the sound of his voice is obviously irritating.
"Hmm..." I just answered and then I felt my hand on my forehead and then Kenzo sighed violently.
"Damn." Next, when I heard footsteps, my eyelids were too heavy to open my eyes and see what Kenzo was doing.
The door opened and closed and he disappeared for a while, I don't know if it was just my imagination but I think I even heard some banging from outside or maybe I was just being carried away by my bad feeling.
A little while later, Kenzo came back, my heart pounded again when I heard it, that's why I really forced myself to open my eyes little by little. My vision was still a bit blurry, but I saw what Kenzo was doing. I wring out the towel that he just dipped in my batcha and then he came back to me.
"I guess this will help you, lower your fever." And then he put the slightly wet towel on my forehead. I closed my eyes again to try to rest, because my head was hurting too.
I don't know how much time has passed or if my time has passed but I woke up again without Kenzo, I was about to smell when the door opened again and this time he brought a tray of food.
"You shouldn't have bothered anymore." Lethargic when told to him, he immediately put down the tray of food and then quickly came to me to help me get up.
"I cook porridge so you can eat somehow and then I also brought medicine." I nodded and was about to get the porridge to eat when he stopped me.
"Let me... let me take care of you." So I don't have the energy anymore so I can't wait for him to feed me. I didn't even finish it because I didn't really feel like eating, I didn't have any taste either.
"I don't want to..." I said to Kenzo in a low voice.
"Huh? But you only ate so little. Try to eat more." Kenzo said and he was about to try me again but I shook my head and then avoided my face, e hsighed and then returned the bowl to my tray.
"Drink this..." When I looked at him again with the tablet he was holding, he brought it to my mouth.
"This would make you feel better." He added. I nodded and he even helped me drink water. Maybe it's also an effect of the medicine because after a while I was too sleepy.
The next day when I woke up I saw Kenzo, leaning against my door and fast asleep.
I slowly got up from lying down and then I felt myself, it seems that I'm okay. You no longer feel dizzy and weak. I also touched my forehead and it's not as hot as yesterday.
When I returned it to Kenzo's place, he was still asleep. I slowly approached him and then I stared at his face and before I was satisfied I touched his left cheek.
"Looks like you're very tired, ah." I said in a whisper, he only answered me with a snort that made me smile.
"You're tired." I pulled the blanket I used last night and then I covered him. I also stood up and stretched and when I was sure it was okay I was oaky, again. I left the room and went straight to the kitchen, that's how my eyes widened when I saw how messy the kitchen was, as if I had entered the house, but the only target to disturb was the kitchen.
There were kitchen gloves scattered around my side of the kitchen as well as on the floor, I picked them up one by one, I even cringed when I saw a pot inside my kitchen that was on fire.
"What happened here?" I was still confused and asked myself, I also touched the pot and just then I noticed that the black inside was rice that was very burnt, I just frowned little by little when I remembered where I saw that rice that was last night! Kenzo fed me porridge!
I brought it to my sink pot and then I added water to soften the burnt rice inside. The amount of dirt in this electric stove, which simultaneously overflowed from this loaf of Kenzo. Sigh.
In fact, he is our Señorito, so it is not surprising if he is not good at cooking, if there is someone who can cook for him. The only thing that makes me wonder is why there is a broken plate here? Sigh. What happened last night? Then I suddenly remembered the bangs I heard last night, does that mean it's not imagination?
