My Love from my Photograph

Part 20

(Y/n)as POV

I open my eyes, the warm sunshine is shining through the window, bringing the room light and life. I try to move a little as my back ached from siting in the same position the whole night. But soon realize that Joseph's head is still lying on my lap.

I carefully lift his head up as I try to change my siting position. It is a quiet and tranquil time, until someone knocks on the door. "Joseph? Are you awake?" That must be Mr. jack.

"If you're still asleep then I'm going to have Miss (Y/n) to wake you up!" I jump as he pushes the door open and we scream (maybe just me) at the same time.

"Oh, uh... So Miss (Y/n) is already here to wake him up. I'll go and wake the others, goodbye!" He gives me a big grin before leaving the room. I have a bad feeling about this.

Joseph moves his head a little to the right on my lap, then asks,"What is... Going on?"

"Um, no. Nothing. I just saw a cockroach, so I scream..." I bit my lip, unsure if he'd buy it.

"Oh... Just a cockroach... Wait, cockroach? Where?" He suddenly jumps up and hugs onto me tightly and look around his bedroom. I didn't know he is afraid of cockroaches.

The door knocks again and this time it is Miss Emily. "Oh, so there you are, Miss (Y/n). Have you been here the whole time?"

"Um, no. I'm just looking after Joseph for a night."

"I see, that's very virtuous of you. Mr. Joseph sure is lucky to have you." She gives us a smile and then starts checking our wounds."

After the check up, she gives me some medicines that I need to take to recover quicker. "Your wounds are doing great for now, I'm sure they'll be fully recovered by next month."

"Thank you, Miss Emily." She keeps her medical instruments back into her case and before she leaves she tell us that we are able to move freely today and advise us to take note of important places. It's a good thing the wound is not fatal, I can have a bath without feeling the hurtful place aching me too much.

Later in the afternoon, Joseph and I go to the dining room for lunch where everyone is already there except us. As I step into the cheery room, everyone seems to be doing fine and are talking and laughing around. I give out a small sigh in relief as I get to see this scene.

"Ne, look who's here~" Michiko covers half of her face as she smiles. What is this about again?

Violetta comes running to us eagerly and says,"You guys are official! Yes you guys are official! Finally!!" Her limbs are shaking vigorously in excitement.

"Violetta, calm down, what is going on?" I'm still confused, but one of her limbs have already broke off. "Oh no, it cramped... Anyways, I'm so glad you both are finally official!!!"

"What?" I look at Joseph, but he is looking at Jack in the corner, who is snickering behind his half-covered mask. Oh no... Jack you did not--

I hide my face inside my palms and turn to the other side. But Michiko is already in front of me. "So--- " Michiko looks at Joseph and I, then starts bombarding questions,"When are you going to have your marriage? Do you want Michiko to be your bridesmaid? Michiko can also perform a dance! How many children will you have? Michiko will bring you chicken soup during your confinement!"

"Uh... Confinement?" My face gets all red again.

"Oh oh! I can make (Y/n)'s wedding dress! A beautiful one! What theme should we use to decorate the wedding banquet? If there's a wedding banquet, then that means (Y/n) also need another dress! Oooh~ I shall make two different themed dresses!" Violetta chimes in. The two of them are so hyped up to plan these things.
