One In A Million

Chapter 37

People having a flu would normally take a few days off of work, keep it warm at home, covered in thick duvet, drinking warm drinks, trying to get rid of those incommoding flu symptoms, and the sickness itself, thats the human logic. The flu had been hit me for two days already and it wasn't getting better despite of all the natural infusion treatment I drank, it looked like that shit was loving me, unable to detached off me. Marco had picked me after I finished work on yesterday. Seeing my exhaustion and feverish condition he took the decision to spend the night at mine, and to take care of me with the best of care. He arranged the bathroom with perfumed candles everywhere, ran me a hot bath mixed some essential oil in it, cooked me a delicious noodle chicken soup with a very secret supplementary ingredient of his that made it so tasty, went to the pharmacy to buy me medicines (ugh I disliked that), and finally put me to bed like if I was a baby. Of course we didn't sleep together, as a precaution for Marco not to caught my flu. He simply slept on the sofa, like a little boy, and from his sayings came on time to time to check on me if I was sleeping or if the fever gone away. Wasn't he the cutest thing ever, never I've been so privileged by a man, or being take care of the way Marco did it. He was my angel, and I his priority.

This morning he prepared my breakfast, and got me my fave brownies and croissant from the bakery down the street of my apartment. I remember he said he'd prepare my preliminary meal of the day each time we would wake up together. Marco proposed himself to stay at mine, well rule it would define the situation better, all day long just to make sure an lightning fever would attack me, and to keep a safe eye in general. As I was feeling a light amelioration, I proposed him that we could spend some time out, in the city, only the two of us. I was in need of some fresh air, and to evacuate those bad germs off my immune system, In addition, that bright and warm sun was one more good reason to show off my nose. Marco had been a bit reluctant at first, And I could understand his reasoning, he wanted to keep me warm and cook some meals, that was just with the best of intentions, but one more day stuck inside and I'd turn mad. With my fine skill of persuasion, his denial didn't resist too long anymore and he finally agreed.

We had lunch at Wing Jun Chinese restaurant, I only ate a noodle soup with chicken wantans, the only food that seemed tasty into my mouth. Later on, we headed to the mall on Marco's demand, he said he had many stuffs to buy from some shops there. I thought it was some casual clothes or perfumes, because yes Marco loved to take care of his appearance, always had to wear some expensive sneakers, or a new expensive tshirt from those designers, no it was something different. As we walked in the Sony Shop, Marco headed straight to the PS section, and asked for three PS4, two of them were for the children of a close friend of his, and the last for Sophia, yes Marco had promised he'd get her one, and Marco only had one promise. The PS4 in hands, Marco said he needed to replace his Ipad as Nico broke it four days ago by letting it crash on the floor. But what unsuspecting was Marco bought me one either and as it wasn't expensive enough, a new touch ipad and a pair of new red Beats headphone came in the addition to the gifts. In my opinion, that was above too much, I wasn't worth all those gifts from him, pleasing his beloved ones was one of his generous quality. The high tech shopping done, we raid a toy shop, buying in there all sort of toys cars and legos for little Nico, I knew how he loved cars, especially the transformers one, Bumblebee, my fave by the way. Marco so loved to spoil his little monster in too many different ways. His generosity had no words.

In Marco's presence, the time seemed to run slower, or maybe that it was a side effect of the flu or simply the madness of love I felt for him. Every moment spent with him were magical and made my feelings to grow deeper and deeper. We spent like three to four hours at making shopping. As usual he bought him three pairs of sneakers shoes, shirts, and caps, and two pairs of Nike for me, a pink and purple. I have extremely been spoiled by my boyfriend, too much. It was around sixteen forty five when Marco drove me back to my apartment. He didn't follow me to my big surprise, but instead said "be ready at 18:30" because I'll pick you and bring you to a very special place. What was it.?
