His Fate

Chapter 30: Continue Making Arrangements

Valentina POV

Yesterday was amazing, I am so blessed to have him in my life.

It was 9 am and I was at home doing a cake for the Arabian coffee today.

It was 11:15 and we were on our way to the hospital Munchi and me. I need to tell Richard, I just don't know when.

I did the tests and I'm waiting for my turn to go in. I'm very nervous. I hated these walls, the color that wasn't white or off-white. All hospitals were the same. The same floor tiles, everything was the same. I hate hospitals, their bed, food, and offices. Everything about hospitals made me ill.

"Valentina Hart" I got up and entered "Hello Dr how are you?" "not good fought with my husband, missed my children's show, and looking at bad news" I sigh.

"What?" "I was hoping for good and you" she began talking "what's wrong?" I asked her "a couple of questions first" I nodded "do you smoke?" I shook my head "do you drink?" "not a lot maybe a cup of wine in a week" that's a lie "do you do any exercise?" I shook my head "when was the last time you had an asthma attack?" "yesterday at 11 pm" she nodded "do you take your medication regularly?" I shook my head.

"Your lungs are blocked and you lost weight dramatically" I sigh "what should I do?" I asked, "well if you continue like this you'll die after a maximum of 4 months, but if you take your medication, stick to the plan, stop hanging around smoke, stop drinking wine, and gain some weight you'll have a healthy life and grow old healthily." I nodded

"But if you continue like this I can't even guarantee you 4 months and you're going to continue making arrangements," she passed me a brochure of death arranging things. Can she even do that?

She prescribed me more medication and monthly visits until I get better and I was sobbing while walking home. People were looking at me and I didn't care anymore, I am tired. Every time I think things are getting better they get worse.

I was home and I was about to pour myself a cup of wine looking through the brochure and the pile of papers when the doorbell rang, then I remembered that they were coming, how can I forget. So stupid. I hid the papers and files and opened the door and they came in.

"Hi, how are you, guys?" I hugged each one of them. "sorry it's a bit messy" I said "messy? Are you crazy, it's cleaner than my house was in ages" Olivia said "she means never, her house was never organized" Justine said "exactly" Maxine said.

I made the coffee and brought the cake and they loved it, thank goodness. "Valentina, can I talk to you for I second?" Nicole asked, I nodded and got up, and we went to the kitchen, "you forgot this at my house yesterday, in the bathroom" shit shit shit shit shit, I forgot my inhaler at theirs yesterday "do you mind me asking, what's this?" I am not ready for this "It's my inhaler" I said, "I have asthma, I hope you didn't tell anyone. Especially Richard I am going to tell him, but I just don't know how or when" she nodded.

"What are you talking about?" Zara asked us "we were talking about the paintings I want to draw and give her because as you see the walls are pretty pale" "Yes pretty pale," Justine said.

"Thank you for the coffee again. We should do it again soon" Michelle said, "yeah it's a must," I said.

After 15 minutes I decided it was time to clean up.

After I was done and was going to throw myself on the couch and watch tv the doorbell rang. I got up and opened it and saw my love. I hugged him and kissed him on the cheek. "wow nobody was ever that excited to see me" he chuckled "well you better get used to it" I said, "already did" I laughed.

It's been a week since the Arabian coffee date with the girls and I still didn't tell him "Hey wanna go out?" I looked at him from my point of view "the guys are going out today and I said I wouldn't go without you cause I want to spend time with you, so do you want to go out?" I smiled he was so cute "yeah I would love to, where are we going?" I sat straight "a nightclub in the middle of the city, I actually don't remember the name" he chuckled "ok let me get dressed"

I stood up and begin walking to the room he held my hand and pulled me back on his lap this time, I gasped in shock. I was literally millimeters away from him, and I wanted to kiss him so badly, his scent intoxicated me "I have to get dressed Richie" "no, but I don't want you to go away" he pouted "you can come with me" I teased him "really?" "nope" I chuckled "you are such a tease," he said putting a strand of hair behind my ear, "it will take me a couple of minutes" "I bet that's not true"

I put my hand in his hair wandering to the bottom of his neck where I rested my hands. He put his arms around my waist pulling me close "so you don't want to go out?" I asked him, he was looking at my lips "I want to but-" I smiled "but what?" He kissed me, and I smiled during the kiss it was nice it was warmth and love, I kept playing in his hair making him groan. He put his hand on my cheek caressing it yet still not wanting to let go.

He was in control, dominant and I loved it. I put my hand on his wings pulling him close. I needed breath but still, I didn't want to let go, he was my air, and I craved for him. And never did I want something or someone as much as I want him.

We pulled away and rested our foreheads together. Our noses touched, I closed my eyes then opened them and he looked at nowhere but me.

"You better go get dressed before something happens." I laughed "okay" I got up but he didn't leave my hand "Richie" "okay, okay"

I walked to my room and it took me like 10 minutes to get ready "Indeed a couple of minutes" he said from outside. "I bet it takes you longer to get ready" I walked outside "wow," he said "you look ravishing princess, so beautiful" he walked towards me "thank you" I smiled "we should head out before I change my mind and do something" I blushed.
