Chapter 409 - Quizzical

It's been days since Alicia started taking care of her sleeping boyfriend. She counted the days on the calendar and it's over five days now. The doctors said that Leon was only trying to cope with all of the sleep that he never got and it was also because of the painkillers that they injected into him, plus the hemorrhage. She's getting worried each day. She even plays a song for him every time she gets bored waiting for him. 

The door opened as Violet entered with a basket of snacks and take-out. She placed it over the table and arranged it. 

"The ass hasn't woken up yet?" Violet asked Alicia. 

"Nope." Alicia put down her ukulele and reached Leon's handsome face. "I started to think that he didn't want to see me." She pouted. 

"Hey, don't be dramatic." Violet chuckled. "Wait a minute." She went to the bathroom to do her business. Then, Alicia stood and went to the table to get some snacks. 

She continued humming and singing the song that she composed an hour ago. She hasn't completed it yet and it still needs to be polished. It was a heartbreaking song because she felt heartbroken and worried over her boyfriend. She turned around and met Leon's eyes. She quickly put down the snack and rushed to bed. 

"Babe," She smiled at him. Leon closed his eyes and opened it again. "Is it too bright?" She asked and adjusted the light to dim it. Her heart was racing so fast as Leon moved his eyes around and tried to open his mouth. "Do you need anything?" She asked and she quickly forgot to ring the nurse. "Leon," She called again but he didn't respond. 

"Who~~" He closed his eyes hard. "Damn, that's painful." 

"Of course! You nearly die, you dumb ass." 

Leon looked at the beautiful lady, but there was no recognition in her eyes. The bathroom door opened and Violet sighed. 

"Thank the above and they haven't taken you yet." 

"Hey, Vi." He greeted her. 

Violet approached him as Leon grinned. Somehow, Alicia felt left out that he didn't say her name. She pressed her lips and the doctor and nurses came. She stepped away and watched the doctor check on him. 

"I'm fine. But not my arm. How did I get into this situation?" Leon asked Violet who looked puzzled. 

"Uhm, what's the last time you remember?" Violet asked. 

"We make out." He winked and Violet nearly hit him. 

"We never make out, you asshole." Violet crossed her arms and lifted her left ring finger. "I'm married." 

"What?!" Leon exclaimed at her. 

"Your vitals are fine." The doctor said, "But, you didn't remember how you got into this situation?" 

"No." He shrugged. "And what kind of hospital is this?" He sighed. "Anyway," he faced Violet. "Who did you marry?" 

"My fiance, of course." She rolled her eyes. 

"And the pretty lady? Who is she?" He asked softly as Alicia looked confused. 

"Your girlfriend, you bastard." Violet rolled her eyes. "Doc, I think we need to change his brain." 

The doctor laughed. 

"It might be temporary selective amnesia. We will set a time for his CT scan and MRI." The doctor told them. "For now, you need to slowly exercise a few of your body parts since you've been sleeping for days now." 

"What?" Leon was really confused. "Are you serious?" 

"Yes. And since your brain missed a lot of events, you also need to catch up." Violet said and tapped his uninjured right arm. "Anyway, I will stay a little bit." She glanced at Alicia. 

"Let us know if there are signs of vomiting and other strange symptoms. Common symptoms will be a headache, body pain, and fever." The Doctor said and scribbled on his clipboard. 

Alicia bit her lower lip as she felt uncomfortable and she probably doesn't look well after not taking care of herself for a few days now. She even forgot her skincare routine that her manager always tells her to follow. She probably looked pale and she felt a little insecure. 

After the doctor left, Violet signed Leon and mouthed him to speak to Alicia or else, he's dead. Suddenly, Violet's phone rang and she answered it. She smiled at Kal's handsome face. 

"Mimi!" Kal exclaimed. 

"Hello, baby. How's Quinn?" 

"Quinn?" Leon was confused and Violet was talking to a baby. 

"We cook. Kin-kin poo a lot." Kal said. 

"Say hi to your Aunt Alicia." Violet showed Kal to Alicia as Alicia smiled. 

"Hello, Kal." 

"Tata!" Kal quickly picked her food and showed it to Alicia. "I got food!" 

"That's great." Alicia tried to compose herself. 

"Hey," Violet adjusted the bed a little. "This is my son. He's already one year old." 

"What?" Leon exclaimed and winced from the body pain. 

Violet showed Kal to Leon. 

"Uncle!" Kal exclaimed. "You ugly." 

"What the hell?" Leon frowned at Kal as Kal glared at him. 

"You ugly." 

"Your son just told me that I am ugly. How can he say that? He's just one year old!" Leon exclaimed at Violet. 

"Precisely. He hates you." Violet smirked and talked to her baby again. She sat on the sofa as Alicia quickly fetched a bottle of water and a straw. She let Leon sip a little, as she felt a little uncomfortable. 

Leon looked at her closely. She was so beautiful, curvy, and not the type of girl that he would fuck. He was very much surprised that he even has a girlfriend when he only loves Violet. He looked at Violet who was talking to her son. Alicia, the girl that Violet said to be his girlfriend, checked the tablet. 

"Do you want to eat?" She asked and met his eyes. 

"Uh, no. I think I can't eat yet." 

Alicia nodded his head. Then, Violet giggled girlishly over the phone. 

"I will see you, probably next week, handsome. Give my kisses to Quinn." 

"Kay. Love-love, Mimi." 

"I love you too." She kissed the phone and hung up. Then, Violet caught his eyes as she glared at him. She stood and approached him. "I have a lot of things to do and your brain should catch up as soon as possible. The Charles Empire has two killing machines now. That also includes Johanna." 

"Johanna?" He asked. "Who is she?" 

"Hannah Grace. Seriously, what is the last time you remember?" 

"Well," he thought for a while. "Big boss was killing a lot of assassins to protect his sister. That's it. Then, we both make out." He was thoughtless and forgot that he got a girlfriend. 

"I don't know who you dream of making out, but we never make out. Over my dead hot body." She said, "I am married, and you need to remember that." 

"Oh, fuck." He grumbled. 

"Yeah," She turned on the television. "Our big boss is the Crown Prince and you have a lot to learn." 

"Vi, my brain can't take all of the info you just said. I am utterly confused." 

"Whatever," Violet shook her head. "I will visit when I have time." 

It was awkward when Violet left. It was for Leon but the beautiful lady smiled at him as she reached his right hand and kissed it. 

"I will speak to the doctor. Okay?" 

"Y-yeah." Leon nodded his head as he watched Alicia leave. He looked around the room and to the papers on the coffee table and ukulele. He heard a beautiful voice singing while he was unconscious. It must be her. He sighed, too puzzled. "Damn, how did I get into this situation." 

Everything hurts, including his penis. Did he have a catheter? This is one thing he hates. He rather has diapers. But somehow, it's less hassle for the person who was taking care of him. He's lucky enough to be alive and has a girlfriend who will take her time to take care of him. This is confusing and frustrating for Leon. 

"Fuck, did I fall in love?" He mumbled. Falling in love was one thing that he had as his rules unless it was Violet. He knew that Violet didn't love him and wouldn't ever become attracted to him. It was always, Victor. "She's not my type, but she's attractive." He mumbled as he slowly closed his eyes. 

Shortly, the door opened and the beautiful lady smiled at him. 

"The doctor said that you can eat a little. Probably soup." She said as she sat on the bed beside him. Then, she kissed his lips. Leon was taken aback but he didn't complain or push her. "Your CT-Scan and MRI will be tomorrow." 

"Okay," He nodded his head.

Shortly, the door opened as the nutritionist entered. 

"Miss Alicia, food is here." The chatty nutritionist had a few people set up the table. 

"Thank you," She smiled at them. 

"Can we~~we have an autograph?" One of the staff asked as the nutritionist nudged them. 

"Sure," 

Leon blinked as she gave them autographs with her photo on them. 

"I can only give autographs for now." She spoke to them softly. 

"It's fine. We are more thrilled to see you here." They giggled and they left. 

"So, they have chicken soup." She told him. "Fruits too." 

"I~I will eat.." Leon was still confused.
