JENNIE'S FIRST LOVE

Chapter Twenty Four

I'm feeling better when I woke up. The paracetamol I drank seems effective. I found Lisa lying beside me, asleep. Oh, she went home early. I touched her face.

She slowly opened her eyes and smiled when she looked at me. "It looks like you're sleeping so well."

"S-sorry, I didn't feel good earlier that's why I went back to bed."

She frowned and sat up straight. "Why? What are you feeling? Are you still feeling bad?" She worriedly asked.

"No, I'm okay now." I smiled and hugged her. "You're here already."

"I told you. Don't you ever dare do a laundry again." She lectured.

"Yes, mother." I said, laughing. She cupped my cheeks using her both hands and placed a kiss on my lips.

"We have a money, my love." She happily said.

"You got a job?" I laid on her chest.

"Not yet. But someone bought my motorbike." She started kissing my hair. "My love, don't worry I won't stop finding a job. You know that I will take care of you, right?"

"Mhm." I answered. She already proved it. She never let me suffer. I love her more because of that. "Thank you for taking care of me."

"I should be the one thanking you. Thank you for accepting my past and for being who I am. Thank you for fighting me in front of your parents. And thank you for your love."

"And don't forget to thank me for the great sex." I joked and giggled.

She also laughed.  My finger danced on her chest.

"Hell yeah!" She said before claiming my lips.

I spent my day enduring my headache and body pain. I don't want Lisa to worry so I decided not to tell her. I just drank painkiller and paracetamol. It will fade for a moment, then after a few hours it will come back.

Today is different. It's getting worst. I can barely get out of bed. My whole body feels so sore. I think I have a flu. I forced myself to go out of the room to take my medicine. I weakly sat on the couch. I feel like I ran 10 miles.

"My love, you're awake." Lisa said when she got out of the bathroom. She was wearing nothing but a towel.

I forced a smile. I can't even talk before I felt like I don't have any strength to do so. She frowned when she noticed it.

"Are you okay?" She asked me.

"Yeah."

She walked towards me. "You don't look okay."

"I'm fine." I answered.

She sat beside me and touched my forehead. "Shit! You're burning hot!"

"It's just a flu." I said, weakly.

"Why did you get up? Come on, I'll take you back to bed." She said before carrying me back to bed.

"I'm going to cook something you can eat and we'll go to the doctor, okay?" Lisa said.

"I don't wanna go to the doctor. I'll be fine." I said.

"Don't be hard-headed. We'll going to see a doctor after you eat and take your medicine."

"But-"

"I don't want to hear it. Stay here, I'll gonna cook chicken noodle soup. Call me if you need anything." She said and left the room.

When she came back she's holding a bowl of chicken noodle soup and fed me. After I finished my soup she gave me my medicine and I took it. Then we went to the hospital. The doctor just asked me questions and did some check ups on me. He said it was just a flu. I just need to rest, drink medicine and drink plenty of water.
