If I love you enough to let you go, would you love me enough to come back?
-Harry
===============
I let a small groan as I tried to ignore the annoying voice that was speaking. I was numb and felt nothing, and all I wanted to do was to relax.
After a minute of silent I heard something fell on the floor, making my eyes cracked opened in annoyance. It was sort of blurry but I was able to see again . A girl with a short brown hair wearing a nurse uniform, pacing its back on me.
Wait a second. Nurse!?
My eyes immediately landed on the patient gown I was wearing. What the hell just happened?!.
I scooted upright trying to figure out what's going on. The nurse slowly turned around with a tray on her hand. She smiled at me and walk besides the bed I was lying.
" take it easy for a minute... " the nurse cautioned when I tried to get up. Before I could speak, I heard a loud irritating cough, making my head turned to who it was.
My mouth fell opened in shocked and my pulse quicken in my vein when I met Harry's gaze. I blinked my eyes rapidly, making sure I wasn't just dreaming or imagining some stupid things but its real, he's here . He was leaning on the wall, watching me with his brow pulled low. His arms were folded loosely over his chest with his back supporting him against the wall. How come I didn't noticed him from behind?.
I Glared at him but he just stared at me nonchalant with his green eyes .
The nurse noticed the tension that was building between us. She excused herself and made her way outside the room. Now it was only me and Harry. We stared at each other for a long time, before I broke the silence between us .
"Where am I? " I asked through greeted teeth.
" is it obvious that you're here in the hospital " he said with a hint of sarcasm and annoyance in his voice. I slapped my head in my thought because of my stupid question.
"Then why are you here?!" I asked, anger starting to build inside of me as I waited for his answer.
"Look Emily, you're here because I brought you here. You almost hit by a car last time and I'm pretty sure if I wasn't there, maybe your dead now " he sigh, running his hand through his hair. So he was the one who saved me.!?Of all people in London, why. Why Harry?
"Almost yes, then why did you brought me here in the hospital if I didn't get hit?!" I pressed. He walked closer while I'm still sitting on the bed, not breaking his gaze on me.
" the moment I saved you, you collapse . Lack of sleep, stress and not eating well are the reasons why you collapsed , and by the way your highness I brought you some food okay, " he said emphasizing the last sentence and pointed on the bunch of food on the table. I'm starving but I can still control myself .
I slowly get up from the bed and walked towards the door ,ignoring his gaze on me. I had enough and I don't have the urge to continue our small argument. Just before my hand touches the knob. His large hand grasp around arm, stopping me from taking a step forward.
"You're not going anywhere " he said quietly not loosing his grip on me. I managed to turn around to meet his eyes staying firmly locked on my own.
"Let me go "I warned quietly. My voice sounded weak as I spoke even I tried my best effort to remain strong.
"You think I'm going to let you go after I saved you! "he said sharply, my breathing starting to heavy as I watched his dark green eyes on me.
" And that doesn't mean you can stop me! "I snapped.
" you're going to work for me after I helped you " he chuckle slowly while shooking his head.
" I didn't asked for your help! let me remind you something Harry. This is all your fault why I'm here! I cant believe youre using your power and connection just to make sure I can't find job in this country!. Seriously Harry? After what you did to me before ,you have the nerve to do this now ?! ". I shouted, a flash of emotion show in his face but he immediately covered it quickly by his cold gaze, he bit his lower lip and he finally release my arm.
" You still have to work for me " he said firmly. A short sting hint my stomach because of his word but I didn't show any reaction. Is he depth ?
"You owe me for saving your life and I wanted you to pay me the favor " he said flatly. My mouth fell open and I shook my head in disbelief, too shocked to register about what he had said.
" what kind of favor?" I managed to asked , my heart begin to quicken as I waited for his answer, he let a small sigh before looking back at me.
" work for me as my secretary " he said proudly and I clenched my fist beside. I wanted to smacked his face but I know I wont win if I did.
" drop it Harry okay, just because you saved my life doesn't mean you have the right to control me!"
" you won't? then fine , I'm sure you can pay me and the bills in this fucking hospital because I wont let you walked away in this room without paying me. dont go anywhere cause wallet is over there "he said tilting his head on the table. He let out his left hand in front of me, waiting me to pay him. I didn't move in my spot because I know I don't have too much money to repay him. I have no idea why Harry was doing this to me, he never acted like this way before when we were still together. I never thought I would be in this humiliating position I was in. I closed my eyes for a moment, trying to think the best way to solve this stupid problem.
" fine, I'll work for you until I paid you " I said through gritted teeth. A smirk appeared in his face and I rolled my eyes. I don't have a choice, he was too powerful and I know no one will accept me in any job position.
" none of this would never happened if you are not stubborn . now that you're perfectly fine maybe you can start next Thursday, yeah?" He said but I remained silent. I could feel him watching me closely despite my gaze fixing elsewhere.
" now fix yourself And go home, I'll tell my driver to--"
"No thanks " I said cutting him off.
" I'm going to sent a nurse here to help you , I'm going on the cashier now and please dont even try to plan anything stupid inside your head. " he snorted and I nodded. He walked away and shut the door , leaving me with my thoughts. I wanted to put a knife in my chest for putting myself in this situation . going back again in London is the worst decision I've made for myself .
payback is a bitch....
