Chapter 8 Bossy, Aren't You?
- What?.
- "Annie!."Larry yelled as he quickly got up from his chair and ran towards her.
- He bent down beside her and shook her vigorously.
- "Annie!, Annie!, Annie!."he yelled out her name but no response.
- What the hell?.
- Her eyes were firmly closed.
- Her body temperature is hot...so hot.
- Some sweats formed on his forehead.
- ~what have you done, Larry.~
- He scooped her in his arms and stood up and went out of his office.
- "Doctor!, doctor!."he called.
- Samuel happens to be passing by at that time.
- He gave Larry a weird look.
- What's he up to this time around?.
- "Doctor, please, doctor!."he called at Sam.
- What?.
- Sam laughed.
- He found it really funny.
- How can a doctor be calling another doctor?.
- The smile on his face disappeared when he saw Annie in his arms.
- "What's wrong with her?."he asked.
- "I.. I don't know, just.. please,help me...help me treat her,she just collapsed..I..I .."Larry stuttered.
- Sam carried Annie from him and rushed inside the ward while calling the nurses he saw on his way to bring the needful to the ward.
- Larry didn't went after him.
- He just stood there..
- Not knowing what to do.
- His heart is beating faster than the normal beats.
- He slapped his forehead.
- "Why?,why,why!!!!."he yelled.
- Why did this always happen to him?.
- Why does he seem so unlucky!.
- Why!.
- He scattered his head angrily.
- "Oh, right. You've killed another "her" again."Skyler suddenly appeared and said.
- Larry ignored him but Skyler doesn't seem satisfy.
- He wanted to push him to the wall so he can the people around a great beast he is.
- He is there primarily to provoke him.
- "You're satisfy,now, aren't you?. After all, you've just fed your beast with the blood of another innocent soul again."Skyler chuckled.
- Larry's head snapped back at him furiously.
- He charged towards him and grabbed his neck by his left arm and threw him at the wall.
- Skyler lets out a wince as his back hit the hard wall and as he fell to the cold floor.
- Blood oozes out of his nose and mouth.
- He managed to got up.
- He raised his palm up and use it to clean the blood on his mouth and brought it down then stared at his blood on his fingers.
- He chuckled as he staggered forth and back.
- Larry took a step forward but he immediately got control of himself.
- He paused as he looked at Skyler.
- He took his eyes away and walked to the ward where Annie was rushed into.

- #3hours later#
- Annie opened her eyes and it immediately came into contact with the bright light and she quickly closed his back.
- Where's she?.
- She turned and touched her head.
- *Migraine*she groaned.
- She finally opened her eyes and now she saw Larry leaning over her.
- His lab coat was in his arms and his shirt was wet, probably from too much sweating.
- He lets out a relief sigh and tried to hide his happiness.
- "You're awake."he said,rather casually.
- Annie tried to stand up but she winced as her body felt too heavy.
- "Oops!, doctor said no going out of the bed and no sitting up."Larry added.
- He went to drop his coat and came back with a tea cup.
- "What happened?,how did I end up in this ward?."Annie asked as she glanced around.
- "You fell down, long story cut short. Do you prefer some tea?,it is specially made and...well, just a sip,and you would love it."he tried to change the topic.
- Annie scoffed.
- "I cannot sit up so how the hell do you expect me to drink a..."she trailed off on her words as Larry pressed a button on the bedside and the bed folded into two and there!,she was sitting,her back was relaxed against the bed.
- "Woah!."Annie mumbled.
- So cool.
- Larry proferred the cup to her.
- "So,how are you feeling?."he asked after she collected the tea.
- "Good, having a little headache tho, migraine, just a little of it."she replied after taking a sip out of the tea.
- "Hmm.. sweet."she smiled and took another sip.
- "Right?, I told you."Larry smiled.
- His smile looks so real,so different from the other smiles she has seen him with in the past few days.
- Annie used the little moment she used in taking sips out of the delicious tea to rummaged through her head.
- What happened earlier came like a flash inside her head and a small smile touched her lips.
- ~Larry,how far can you go~
- He made her trek, tell her she's stinking,call her all sort of names...
- Now, revenge time 😬.
- She looked up to find him looking at her nervously.
- She flashed him a smile and returned the empty tea cup to him.
- "Thanks."she said.
- Larry nodded with a forced smile.
- "Can we go home now?."she asked.
- Larry shot her a look.
- "Why?,no going out of the bed, remember?."
- "Well..I know you can do something about that."she mumbled.
- "Gosh, I will just try to remember what happen if I stay here any longer."she added purposely.
- She knows he doesn't want her to remember and she's gonna feign innocent while punishing him.
- The reason she wanna go home is because of her mom again.
- She can't bear staying in here while her mother is just few miles away from her and she doesn't want her to see her. She would panicked and well..
- Wait!. This room looks different from her mom's own.
- "I'm I in the VIP room?"she asked.
- "VVIP."Larry corrected.
- "Not just very important,very very important, I'm I that special to you?."Annie taunted.
- "You really wish" Larry chuckled.
- "I'm just doing the rightful,you know,as my maid..I ought to treat you right."he added.
- Annie rolled her eyes.
- *After almost killing her?.*
- "Let's go home if you want us to then."Larry said and carried her up on his shoulder.
- Annie gasped.
- "Put me down,you damned man,put me down!."she almost yelled as he beats his back.
- Larry only smiled.
- "Nice song."he said.
- He stepped out of the ward and they bumped into Sam and Skyler.
- "What?."Sam scoffed.
- "A little love scene,I see."Skyler replied Sam.
- Larry ignored them and keep walking and Annie covered her face.
- "Unbelievable!"Sam said.
- "Believable!."Skyler replied.
- Sam glared at him.
- "Stop replying me."he said.
- "You want a punch on your pretty face?."Skyler asked as he raised his hand up in a fist.
- Sam blushed and ran away.
- Skyler scoffed.
- "More unbelievable!!!"
- **
- "Do you want me to move your mom inside the VVIP room also?."Larry asked as he put Annie at the backseat.
- "Nope!."Annie quickly replied.
- He's trying to bribe her!.
- **
- They got to the mansion and Annie was the first to alight from the car.
- "What?,you can't walk on your own now."Larry said as he also alighted from the car.
- Annie rolled her eyes.
- "Damn doctors!,I just fainted and you're telling me I cannot walk on my own?."she almost said it out.
- Oops. That was close.
- She doesn't want him to know just yet that she has remembered.
- She walked walked towards the door and as she placed her head on the doorknob,she fell down but Larry was quick to hold her in his arms.
- "Now,you see yourself..stop being stubborn."he scolded.
- She scoffed.
- He took her up to his room and placed her on his bed gently.
- "Now, don't tell me this is your room,of all rooms?!"she yelled at him.
- "Oh, just keep shut. I own this place and I have the ultimate right to bring you to whatsoever room as I like."he retorted with an eye roll.
- Annie glared at him.
- An idea struck inside her head.
- "Please,go to the bathroom and get me a bowl with warm water inside."she said as she stretched.
- "Are you trying to turn me into your maid?."Larry asked.
- "You can see I can't walk properly and gosh!,I just wish to know how I ended up falling down..."she said as she placed her chin on her jaw pretending to be thinking.
- "No need to know!,I will get the water for you."he said and he went to the bathroom and returned back with a bowl of water.
- "Here is it. What do you wanna do not it by the way?."he asked.
- Annie smirked.
- "Good,now,come wash my foots for me."
