Salvior

Chapter 14

Lizza's POV

" No. It's out of question that I take any type of this hospital food in my mouth again. It's disgusting!" I angrily whine.

" It's good for your health, love" Klaus says for the hundred time today. I crunch my nose in disgust at the thought of the said food.

" I know but can't you ask Zoedae to come with more food rather than only fruits juice? She only listens to you." I pout bout angry and frustrated.

" Fine. Miss Hilde, bring a variety of food from the list I gave you three days ago" Klaus says or rather commands Zoedae and I smile from one ear to the other.

"....with more fruits." He concludes and my smile falls. Zoedae nods and starts walking out of my hospital room.

" Klaus!" I call in horror.

" Liz, you really need those to recuperate from all the blood lost." Just hearing his calm, soothing voice is already a temptation into listening to him and clip my mouth shut but not this time. I've done that the past two days and there's no way to heaven and back that I'm tasting anymore of those.

" No Klaus, Please. I can't take those anymore. I'll do anything you ask but not that" I whine. Klaus only sighs heavily looking at me as if trying to fine the correct words to talk a stubborn kid out of their stubbornness.

But there's no way he'll ever understand how blant and awful this hospital food tastes worse again the pomegranates he asks Zoedae to bring for me for him to personally feed me. Yes, he personally feeds me because I threw away my good on the second day of my stay in the hospital. And since he found out...

For the past three days, pomegranates have been in my every meal or snack and if I take one more I'm afraid I might not survive it.

" You must eat them, love." his words sound final. I turn around whining and face the other side of the room.

" I'll have you a surprise if you do, Liz" He says after a long silence. I turn around to look at him as he stares back.

" What kind of surprise?" I ask back in newly found anticipation.

" The kind you'll like." He gives me a little boyish grin. I narrow my eyes at him before I roll my eyes. Of course I can't get him to tell me if he doesn't want to. -The guy is so tight lip-

I see him pick up the food in a plastic plate, I turn around to face him with a pout- my last attempt to not have to eat the food- but he gives me a hard glare in response before feeding me.

It's surely the first hospital food with a good taste in the world of course because I'm here with Klaus but it's still not that tasty and it's mostly blant.

" Will you go back to school, love?" Klaus ask while I swallow my chewed food.

" Of course. Why wouldn't I?" I look at him suspiciously. He looks at me for a while without speaking, then he does.

" You are not healthy enough to do so."

" Of course I am. All this tasteless food I take is not for kids play." I say back.

" You are all but, love." He shoves a spoon full of food down my throat before I get to answer. I groan and munch on it before trying to talk back to him with half full mouth.

" Eat first." He says calmly as if he did nothing. I glare at him and he gives me back an innocent smile.

" I can't afford to go through the stress I did last year. Once is okay but twice is right down traumatic." I say when my mouth is empty.
