Angel from Heaven

Chapter 21

The next day, Helen insisted that I should stay at home and rest. Even though she forced me to take a day off, she still woke me up early in the morning.

"Good morning!!! Wakey wakeyy.." she sings.

"Hmmmm.."

I could hear she placed something on the nightstand. My guess is a tray because there's a sound of glass, plates, and utensils clinking together. And it also smells really good. Hmmm.. Breakfast in bed.. sweet..

"Y/n.. Wake up, darling.." she shakes my body gently.

"It's still morning.." I murmured. My eyes still closed.

"I know, love.. That's why I wake you up!! I made you breakfast." She said excitedly.

I slowly open my eyes, adjust my vision, and turn my body to her. She sits on the edge of the bed, patiently waiting for me to be fully awake. She stared at me and smiled very sweetly.

"What?" I look at her in confusion.

"What?" She furrows her eyebrows. Her lips still smiling beautifully.

"Why are you smiling like that?" I asked.

"Nothing. I'm just admiring my sweet and pretty girlfriend." She giggled.

I pulled the duvet over my head, hiding my red face. I'm not really good at taking compliments. It only makes me all shy and awkward. But I love it.

She pulled down the duvet and cupped my face, "now sit properly and eat your breakfast." Then she kissed my forehead.

I sat up, leaned my back on the headboard and then she placed the tray on my lap. The tray was filled with a lot of nice things. A complete fry-up, a bowl of fresh fruit, coffee, and flowers.

"Woww, this is really nice.." I cooed.

"Mhmm.. Now enjoy your breakfast." She said, and then she stood up.

"Where are you going?" I grabbed her wrist.

"I'm just going to clean the kitchen." She chuckled.

"Do it later.. please stay and accompany me." I asked with puppy eyes.

She rolled her eyes and chuckled, "Alright, alright, but you have to help me later." She said, and I just nodded with a silly smile on my face. Helen walked around the bed, crawled up on the bed and sat beside me; then, she just watched me eat my breakfast.

"I think we should cancel our plans to visit my parents tomorrow." She suddenly said.

"What? Why??" I asked.

"Hmm.. you know.. you're not so well-" she's eyeing my neck.

"Not well? I'm perfectly fine. It's just a little cut, Helen." I told her.

"But you need rest! The incident was too terrifying. So, it's better for you to just rest. We can visit them some other time." She said.

"Nooo", I frowned. "We've been planning it for a long time, and I'm so excited to meet your family! Also.. it's just a little cut. Nothing serious. Please.. Trust me.. I'm fine. We can still go."

"But-"

"Pleaseeeeeee.." I cut her off and kept begging.

Helen sighed. "Fine."

"Yeayyy!! Thank you!" I kissed her cheek, then continued eating my breakfast and finished it.

Once I was done with my breakfast, we got up and went downstairs. I helped Helen clean up the kitchen then we watched tv for a while.
