Chapter 140 - 140 You and Her

140 You and Her

Xavier was sitting inside the waiting room in the main hospital, his hand holding onto a woman’s shoulder, trying to support her, to calm her. Another man, a much older man, came towards the two of them and sat beside the young woman.

“Don’t worry, he will be fine, for all that we know he is still a suspect, right, Yasmine?” Said the old man to his daughter, Yasmine.

“But father, I saw him unconscious. Even Xavier saw him. I don’t know what to do! I could have lost my little brother.” Yasmine was hysterical, she was panicking in the waiting room.

Xavier looks at the families in the waiting room, and immediately whispered to Yasmine, “Look, I don’t want you to be hysterical about it, because every eye was all on you right now, so remained calm, alright?”

“But Xavier! My brother?!” Yasmine was still hysterical, no matter what Xavier does to calm her down.

Giving up, he handed the young woman to her father and opt to take a breath of fresh air in the main hospital garden. He loves the garden in this hospital, not only because it was the biggest, but the garden also has a small park for patients to do some healing walks every morning. It was almost noon; the sun was at its peak. Xavier remembered how he found the poor boy on the floor when he visited Yasmine’s house.

Trying to have a civil discussion with the young woman before he asked Justice and Henry’s opinion. Instead, there he was, Yasmine’s little brother, unconscious on the floor, and to make things worse, he touch the boy before calling for the healers to come into the house.

“I’m in trouble now, sh*t!” Muttering while he basked in the sun, his wolf’s instinct grew. He really wants to transform and run toward the woods right now. Yasmine is a good girl, but sometimes she could get so intense, like today.

“Sir Xavier?”

.....

A woman’s voice called him from behind. Xavier turned around and saw a young helper looking straight at him. He nodded his head and said, “Yes, how may I help you?”

“Miss Yasmine asking for you, the healer will come shortly to explain about young mister Yego’s condition.” The helper said to him with a polite tone.

“Thank you, miss. I’ll go back to her as soon as possible.” Xavier gave her his thanks and looks at her going away.

Taking a deep breath, he saunters to the waiting room. Xavier was anxious, he seems going deeper into Yasmine’s life even though he was still trying to know more about her private life. The only thing he knew about Yasmine is about her drinking habit and her unsuccessful timing to be funny, he never even kissed her, but only because of his blackout that he had done something that he wasn’t even remembered and now he must face the consequences of his action.

Not that he doesn’t want to, he will be responsible for the child, but deep down inside of his mind, Yasmine is never in the picture. There’s another young woman who miraculously stayed inside even though a wicked bewitched spell already vanished within his system, a young woman with purple color hair, and the most beautiful smile that he ever saw.

Before Xavier turn into the waiting room, he heard Yasmine’s voice, with a sound of distress in it. He peeks and his heart skips a beat for a second. Yasmine was talking with Anne, the young woman who sometimes haunted his dream. What he saw right now wasn’t the same young woman that he was looking after two years ago. This is the mature version of her. Her long hair is in a ponytail, with the healer’s coat covering her dress, her face becoming more beautiful with her full lips and cat eyes like eyes. Xavier couldn’t handle it. He doesn’t want to meet with her, not because he hates her or sympathizes with her. Xavier wanted Anne for himself and was afraid that the obsession that he had before will grow once again.

Doesn’t know what to do. He leans on the wall, trying to catch his breath. He doesn’t even run, but his heart now pounding faster, seems like his wolf almost came out just from looking at her face. The sweet girl is now becoming a beautiful young woman in front of his eyes. Xavier almost turns around and left the main hospital, but then the sounds of people panicking make him go back to the waiting room. Yasmine was crying and hysterical. While her father was dropping to the floor, Anne was trying so hard to calm the two of them, but to no avail.

“F*ck!” He cursed before walking towards Yasmine and lifting her from the floor.

For a short time, his eyes were locked on her eyes, they look at each other and Xavier could see the longing that came from Anne; she misses him, and somehow it makes him so happy to know the fact that Anne missed him. He carries Yasmine away from Anne and tried to resist so hard not to turn around to see her face. Yasmine was crying hysterically. It really got on Xavier’s nerved, but he tried to calm himself, remembering that she was pregnant right now.

“Oh, Xavier, what should we do?” Said Yasmine in his arms.

“What happened?” He tried to ask her, but the young woman keep weeping profusely. Xavier then put her on the bench in the corridor and hold her shoulder, “Yasmine, Yasmine! I need you to focus right now! What happened to your little brother?!” He frantically tried to pry some answers from Yasmine.

“Yego… Oh, Yego is…” Yasmine really tried to make some coherent words.

“Miss Yasmine, sir Xavier.” A voice of a woman calling for them, a voice that Xavier will never forget whenever he was. He looks up and saw Anne with a file in her right hand, looking at the two of them with a flat expression. “I am sorry, but young mister Yego was infected by the new strain of the moskeet fever.”

Xavier stands up, leaving Yasmine, still crying hysterically on the bench, “Is he… Is he alright?”

“Yes, he is stable for now, that’s what I was trying to convey to miss Yasmine, before.” Said Anne with a bit of annoyance in her voice.

“Yasmine… well, she’s a bit sensitive,” Xavier informed the healer that was right in front of him, a charming healer with a ponytail and a frowning face.

A smirk came into Anne’s face, “Well, it seems you know her quite a lot.” Muttered Anne.

“Of course, she… I have a close relationship with her.” Xavier hates to admit it, but she will know the truth, eventually.

Xavier could see a slight disappointment in Anne’s expression, but she soon recovered and tell her another bad news, “Uhm… Alright, so it will be no problem if I put the two of you into the observation room together then.”

Couldn’t believe what he just heard, Xavier asked Anne for confirmation, “Wait, observation room?! What are you talking about?”

“Both of you had some contact with young mister Yego, so we need to do some observation for three days. Don’t worry, we will release you if the results are good.” Anne told both of them in an attempt to calm down the still-hysterical Yasmine.

“Alright, so what do we need to do right now?” Asked Xavier while he tried to calm Yasmine in his embrace, “and please, gave us separate rooms.”

Anne stared at them for a moment. She called for two helpers with protective suits to come forward. “The helpers will escort the two of you to the observation room, and a healer will come to check on you every six hours. Good day, Xavier, miss Yasmine.”

Before Anne could walk away, Xavier called her once again, “Wait, who’s my healer in charge?”

“That would be me.” Then Anne walks away, not even bothering to see him.
