Chapter 9

chapter NINE - EMOTIONS

Klinn's POV

I heard the nurses murmur and laugh but that wasn't what was in my head at this moment, this lady, this woman she she caused something in me to stir up.

What is this feeling?

Light butterflies spinning in my stomach and why would she kiss me?

Who kisses someone out of the blue?

"Excuse me for a moment, and please don't do anything stupid anymore"

I said and left the room, I needed to clear my head and think about what the hell I just felt!

I walk out of the hospital and outside, it was till bright in the day and the sun harsh, so I walk under a tree.

"What the hell was that!?" I asked myself as I began to panic.

"Why does her touch send feelings like electric waves to me and her kiss, her kiss is" I couldn't find the right words.

How do I explain something I have never felt before?

What adjective could I possibly use to describe thisIt..It must be in my head right? Or perhaps something new is happening to me.

"Hey" I call a female nurse walking by

"Touch me"

"Excuse me?"

"No, just my hand, here touch my palm"

"What?"

"Quick, I need to confirm something, it's not what you think"

She looked at me skeptically and slowly stretched her hands to touch my palm, but nothing happened.

"Here, try my forehead" this time she didn't hesitate, but I still felt nothing.

"Are you alright sir?" she asked, now a bit concerned about me.

"I am fine, for a moment I thought I was dreaming and probably having a fever, I am good now." I smiled

"You should see the doctor" she said, feeling genuine concern for me.

"Thank you" I told her and walked out.

She's blonde, right?

The lady who kissed me, I don't even remember her name.

Perhaps it works only with blondes, I guess.

I saw a blonde lady walk into the hospital and I quickly went after her. This time, I have to be more polite.

"Excuse me miss, can I hold your hand for a second" she smiled like she had been waiting her whole life for this moment.

"Sure!" she joyfully said.

I held her hands, but I didn't feel anything special, of course I wouldn't kiss her too,just to confirm.

Right now I felt forbidden to even touch a lady since I felt that woman's touch, but I need to be sure I am not going crazy.

"Please place your hands on my forehead"

I watched her smile and stretch her hands.

"Nevermind, I am good" I said to her before she could touch me.

"Thank you" I smiled and walked out.

I wanted to ask this woman who she was to stir true emotions in me, so I headed back to the room, but before I could open the door, I felt my phone vibrate in my front pocket.

I take it out to see who's calling, it's David, my PA.

"Yes?" I answer the call

"Sir, everyone's been trying to reach you all morning, the meeting is about to start.

"Cancel it"

"But sir"

"I own the damn company, so you do what I say, CANCEL IT!"

"Yes sir"

I cut the call and slip it back into my pocket and gently turn the door knob.

I walk into the room and there she was, sleeping so peacefully like she didn't just try to kill herself some minutes ago.

I smiled to myself.

I drew a chair closer to the bed and sat as I watched her sleep.

I carefully touch her hand so as not to wake her up, and there it was again, the tingles.

Just who was this woman?

"Who are you?" I whispered

I feel drawn to her, I have this feeling of protection towards her, like I want to die protecting her, why?

I gently move a strand of her hair from her face and tuck it behind her ear. And then she moves, maybe I shouldn't have done that.

I wait but she doesn't wake up.

"How do you know me, you called my name" I whispered again.

No one addresses me by that name but by Mr Adams or Mr Ethan. Klinn was the name my mother gave me, only my therapist knows my full name, due to professional relationship. But this lady I only met few hours ago seems to know, how?

I take a deep breath and stand up to leave, she must eat something when she wakes up.

I step out and take my phone from my pocket to dial David's number again.

It rings twice and he picks.

"Sir"

"Send the driver with the other car and some take outs"

"Eric? He is not with you?"

"Tell me he is in the office cause I left him there this morning before I rushed out.

Find him and send him to Skylark Hospital this instant!" I said to him

"Hos..hospital?"

"I am glade you got the message" I said, about to hang the call

"Are you alright, what happened, what's going on?" I heard him ask concerned over the phone

"I am good, it's someone else"

"Oh, thank gracious" I heard him say

I smiled and cut the call.

I turned back around and went back to the room, I couldn't leave her alone.

Why these rare emotions for a woman I don't even know?

As I was about to open the door, I felt my phone ring again.

"What? I thought you got the message"

"I just found Eric, he's asking what take outs he should get? "

Oh, that's true I forgot to mention what he should get, but what does she like to eat?

"uhummm, maybe some soup? I don't know, anything that women like to eat?"

"Womwomen sir!?"

"Uhmm, yes. Tell him to be fast" and I quickly cut the call.

That felt awkward for me too I must confess.

I turn back around and gently open the door.

"You're awake!? " I said as soon as I saw her seated on the bed.
