GARIN

Chapter Eleven

CHAPTER ELEVEN

 Calm down. That's all you need to do right now, father. Just calm down. "DO YOU REALIZE HOW DANGEROUS IT IS TO DO WHAT YOU HAVE JUST DONE?!" Father yelled as he paced back and forth with his arms waving around.  

I just kept quiet as I sat there, pulling the thin fabric around to me as close as I can. I had no energy to even speak nor reply to him, let alone to anyone. "Darling, calm down. What matters is that Amadea is safe and sound." My mother said in a calming tone as she tried to hand me the cup of hot tea that she made for me. 

I reached forward to grab it and take a long sip, savouring the warmth that it held in the cup. I was freezing my butt off and I was already sneezing every now and then. I hand the cup back to my mother as just in time, a sneeze escaped from me. "Bless you," my mother said as she hand me a napkin and I blew into it.  

"I'm sorry sweetheart." My father said after he had calmed down, he took a seat at the end of the bed. I let out a nod as an acceptance to his apology. "How is he?" Dad said, "Garin I mean. How is he doing?" Just at the sound of his name, I finally found the energy to regain a full function of my voice. "H-he's fine." I reply as I hung my head low, sipping more of my tea. 

I let out a sigh, "he's trying real hard right now." I say sadly and quietly. I hate it when something just like this makes my Garin so sad and unhappy. But I know that he's doing his real best to do not only protect himself, but also protect me.  

Through this years of being together, I've learned that Garin was not only a dangerous yet beautiful creature, he was also lovely; he had a heart full of love. I felt lucky to have found him and brought him home with me rather than to put him back. If I hadn't thought of bringing him back with me, then I don't know what I would do with my life. He completed it perfectly and he lead me through all the right paths. I have never met anyone that I would love and care for so much, other than my parents. 

"Can I just go and rest please?" I ask them as I just needed my own 'alone-time' to think and let everything sink into my mind. My mother looked over at my father in concern as she looked back into my eyes and nodded, "Of course you can dear. Just call the nurse if you need anything, we'll just be in the waiting room." she said, smiling warmly as she rubbed her thumb across the back of my hand. 

I let out a nod, "Okay mom, goodnight." I say as she leaned forward, giving me a kiss on the forehead as dad did the same. "I'm sorry again for letting my anger out, especially when you're at this kind of condition. I was just worried about you."  

"I know that dad, now go and take your rest. You must've feel so stressed out, especially with you two driving all the way here. Go and rest, I'll be fine." I smile as I kissed his cheek. He smiled back as he walked out of the room with my mother, bidding a 'goodnight' before they shut the door behind them; leaving me alone in peace and quiet in this uncomfortable hospital room.

I never liked the hospital, I hated being here - it feels so depressing.  

Then a flash of Finn's face came to mind as I remembered my snap at him back in the car. I still feel so bad for him, I shouldn't have snapped at him like that - it was one of the most selfish things I've done. I was so stupid to have thought of doing so.  

I didn't know what my heart felt for him, it was somehow on and off, I do have a bit of a crush on him, but I couldn't stand a chance with him no matter what. He's out of my league anyways. You think THIS would end up with THAT? No it won't, it just doesn't fit.  

But I guess he only sees me as a friend or little sister if you would like to call it so, nothing more; nothing less. But I don't know if he's the right one for me, there could be even better ones out there, but I just can't picture anyone as perfect as Finn. He was one of a kind. From his features to his personality, everything fitted well in one whole frame.
