Chapter 144 Like a troubled little child
As soon as Zaki and Sei left the room, Zaki started talking like a wise old man.
"Look, Sei... It’d be shameful to get hospitalized just because of a hangover okay? And she’s a lady, do you want her to be shamed?" he said and as expected, his words were a lethal blow that instantly extinguished Sei’s wish to bring her to the hospital.
"Then, tell me... what should I do to ease her pain?" Sei then asked with his same anxious voice.
"Calm down, wait... there’s actually some helpful tips I saw before." Zaki replied calmly and Sei seemed to felt some sort of relief the moment he heard him.
However, when Zaki lifted his phone and started typing the words ’how to nurse a hangover’ in a certain website, Sei’s expression began to turn unbelievably cold. As if his sharp gazes were saying that he doesn’t trust whatever that appears in it. Causing Zaki to look at him warily.
Err... what’s with those ’I don’t trust anything that comes from the internet’ look? Wait... don’t tell me he’s thinking about that ***novel case?
"Look Sei, this site is reliable ok---"
Not letting Zaki to finish his statement, Sei just spoke with a terrifyingly firm voice.
"Call a doctor to come, now." He said and big sweat drops just appeared above Zaki’s head.
"You wanted a doctor to come here and nurse her? Did you forget that you just sent Rica, the only woman doctor you have in your disposal to America yesterday? Do you want me to call a male doctor to nurse her? Do you want another man to touch her?" Zaki then replied with a proud look as though telling Sei to just calm down and listen to his golden advice. And as expected, Sei immediately succumbed to Zaki’s trap.
However, the next second, he snatched Zaki’s cellphone and dialed the number of the best doctor he has, old doctor Sou.
And the moment the call connected Sei immediately talked like a panicking little kid.
"Tell me, what’s the cure for hangover?" he asked firmly without even saying hello first. Causing the old doctor in the other side of the phone to immediately reply with straightened spine.
"I’m sorry young master but there is no clinically proven way to cure it---"
"What do you mean?" Sei’s aura turned unbelievably dark the moment he heard the doctor’s statement that made Zaki just began to have series of invisible sweat drops falling in his forehead.
"I mean there’s no magic pill to make it go away, but there are ways to ease the pain." The doctor answered making Sei’s dark aura to disappear in existence and he asked again.
"Tell me... right away." He said and as the doctor kept talking, Sei just nodded and as soon as the call ended, he looked at Zaki and ordered him to get a painkiller to ease his wife’s headache.
"Yeah, yeah... I’m going, stop panicking like an old hag will you?" Zaki just said before he finally left. Sei on the other hand hastily went to the kitchen and took a jag of water.
Thinking about the doctor’s advice about keeping her hydrated, Sei quietly poured a water in a glass before he approached the girl on the bed.
He stood there holding the glass of water with both of his hands as he stared at his wife’s face. That moment, she was still creasing her brows in pain. And the sight of her in that state just made Sei froze for a moment as he looked painfully anxious like a troubled little child, as if the only thing that was missing was for his eyes to welled with tears.
Until he finally managed to talk.
"Y-you have to drink water." He said as he bended his body towards her. However, the girl didn’t respond causing him to turned even more worried. He stretched out his hand and landed his palm gently in her forehead. She was still a bit warm but knowing that her temperature didn’t rose made Sei felt relieved.
The man then squatted as he began to talk again in an extremely hesitant way. It was because he didn’t want to disturb her rest, but as he thinks about the doctor’s advice, he could only force himself to touch her shoulder anxiously as ever.
"Davi..." he called her name unconsciously but the girl who was feeling awful slowly forced her eyes opened the moment she heard someone who called her name.
D-did I just heard Sei’s voice calling my name? He’s calling my name? Ahh... my head is throbbing... was that just my hallucination?
