Chapter 29

Come Closer

 

Guigui opened her eyes slowly. She realized she was lying on the hospital bed. Jason was sitting on the couch in the room. Guigui saw Jason and started to call him.

Guigui : Ge..

Jason : Mei, you woke up already. Thank God.

Guigui : Why am I here?

Jason walked up to Guigui and patted Guigui’s head.

Jason : You were dehydrated. You were too tired. But you’re fine now. (Smiled) Do you feel like eating something?

Guigui shook her head.

Guigui : Where’s Aaron?

Jason : He’s in the next room. He got many bruises. He might have to stay in the hospital longer than you.

Just then, Jason’s cell phone rang.

Jason : Wei. Guigui is awake… Oh okay. I’m coming now. (Hung up)

Guigui : What’s wrong?

Jason : Chun ge wants me to help in the company now.

Guigui : (Pouted) You’re leaving me.

Jason : I’ll come back later to fetch you. Doctor said that you can be discharged today.

Guigui : Hao.

Jason kissed Guigui’s forehead before he left.

Not long after Jason left, Hebe came in to Guigui’s room.

Hebe : Gui..

Guigui : Oh it’s you.

Guigui did not want to look at Hebe.

Hebe : I’m sorry.

Guigui : For what?

Hebe : I was the one who asked Jim to… . I d-did not mean to hurt anyone. I just wanted to give you a lesson. I did not expect…

Guigui’s thought : I guess she really meant it.

Guigui : I don’t want to talk about it.

Hebe : I also want to apologize for everything I had done to you. I’m sorry Gui.

Hebe started crying. Guigui looked at Hebe.

Guigui : Hebe…

Hebe : I’m really sorry. I mean it. Really. Forgive me, Gui.

Hebe cried harder.

Guigui : It’s okay! It’s okay. I forgive you. Don’t cry.

Hebe : Thank you (Wiped off her tears) So, how are you feeling?

Guigui : I’m alright. You were hurt worse than me. You hit your head real hard. How are you feeling now? Is your head okay?

Hebe : I’m alright. I got headache earlier. But I’m okay now. (Smiled)

Guigui : I’m glad. I was scared if something happens to your baby.

Hebe : You know about it?

Guigui nodded. Hebe paused for a minute before she started talking again.

Hebe : Since you already know.. Gui, can I ask you a favor?

A while later, Guigui felt bored in her room. Hebe had left. Guigui got up from her bed and went to Aaron’s room.

Guigui : Hey. How is it going?

Aaron : Gui, glad you come. (Smiled)I’m good. How about you?

Guigui : Are you talking to me again now?

Aaron nodded.

Aaron : I’m sorry.

Guigui : For what?

Aaron : Everything.

Guigui : Why is everyone saying sorry to me today?

Aaron chuckled.

Aaron : I really mean it. I’m sorry. Gui, I--

Guigui : It’s okay. We’re friends.

Guigui smiled.

Guigui’s thought : Why did it hurt? It’s true, we’re only friends now.

Aaron’s thought : Friends? I wanted to…

Aaron : Yes, we are friends. (Forced a smile)

Aaron tried to reach the table to get a glass of water. The table was too far from the bed where he was lying. He barely reached the table.

Guigui : I’ll get it for you.

Guigui walked up to the table to get the water. She faced Aaron and was about to hand it over to Aaron when somehow she suddenly tripped and fell on top of Aaron’s body. Their faces were very close. They were looking into each other’s eyes. They knew they both had been missing each other.

Guigui : Uh. Sorry

Guigui pulled from Aaron.

Aaron : It’s okay.

Guigui : Your water. (Handed over the water)

Both Guigui and Aaron’s hearts were beating really fast.

Just then, Wangzi came into the room.

Wangzi : Gui, you’re here. No wonder your room was empty.

Wangzi took a sit on the couch.

Guigui : Yeah. I felt really bored so I decided to disturb someone.

Guigui looked at Aaron. Wangzi chuckled.

Aaron : Eh bro! That day, how did you get into the warehouse? No one knew about where Guigui and I were at.

Wangzi smiled.

Wangzi : It’s magic!

Aaron : Seriously?

Wangzi giggled.

Wangzi : That time, I went to the amusement park with Guigui. And then, on the way home I left her to buy ice creams. But when I came back, she was gone. I tried calling her many times, but couldn’t find her. Then I called you. You did not answer.

Wangzi stopped talking for a bit.

Aaron : O_O Then?

Wangzi : And then, I went to your house. But I saw you walking out from your house, rushing. So, I decided to follow you.

Aaron : Oh.

Wangzi : I was eager to know why were you coming into an old warehouse. So I hid behind a wall. Then I saw and heard everything that happened. I knew it was something bad.

Aaron : Why did you not come out earlier?

Wangzi : Bro, are you an idiot? It was dangerous. I could not just come out right away.

Aaron : Oh, you’re right.

Guigui, Aaron, and Wangzi continued talking about other stuff.

A few hours later, Guigui got discharged from the hospital. Wuchun, Jiro, and Jason fetched her from the hospital. They just arrived at home.

Wuchun : Mei, go rest.

Guigui : I don’t want to. I want to spend times with my geges.

Jiro : Hao. Let’s watch DVD together.

They went to the living room.

Guigui sat next to Wuchun. She hooked her hands in Wuchun’s arm. She acted really spoil.

Wuchun : Mei, what’s wrong?

Guigui : Nothing.

Wuchun : You’re acting spoil. Tell me..

Guigui : Ge…

Wuchun : Yes?

Guigui took a deep breath.

Guigui : I want to move with mom.

Wuchun, Jiro, & Jason : S-say w-what?

Guigui : I want to stay with mom.

Wuchun : Mei, what happened? Why so sudden?

Jason : Did Aaron do something to you?

Guigui shook her head.

Guigui : Nothing happened. It’s just me.

Guigui’s thought : Can’t tell them the reason, can I?

~Flashback~
Hebe : Since you already know.. Gui, can I ask you a favor?

Guigui : Sure.

Hebe : I--

Guigui : What is it?

Hebe : Gui, can you leave Aaron for good?

Guigui : Heb, I--

Hebe rubbed her stomach.

Hebe : With you here, Aaron doesn’t seem to be serious about our engagement. I’m afraid that someday he will leave me. I don’t want my baby to grow up without a daddy. Gui…

Hebe started crying.

Guigui : I understand your situation. I--

Hebe : Gui, I beg you! (Cry)

Guigui’s thought : What should I do, really?
~End of Flashback~
