π« How I Met My Husband EPISODE THREE: π
I slowly opened my eyes, I look up at the ceiling then look at my left hand side, Larry was there dozing off. I tried to move my body but I couldnβt, I felt pain in my back.
βLarryβ, I called with a low tone almost like a whisper, he opens his eyes and smiled at me.
βOh Lydia, how are you feeling?β, He asked with so much care in his eyes.
βFeeling some painsβ, I said calmly
βI know, you shouldβve listen to me yesterdayβ, he said
βAm sorry forβ¦.β,
βSsshhh! You donβt have to apologize infact you own me no apologies ok?β, He said and I nod.
Heβs such a caring man, I wish I can stay with him forever but I canβt. Just look at what happened yesterday, he should be at work now not at the hospital.
The doctor came later to check me he said Iβm fine but Iβve to spend some days at the hospital for better treatment since am awake.
I refused but Larry insist I stay, he went out with the doctor and came back minutes later, am sure he went to pay money for my treatment.
He told me he was going home to change but heβd be back. I canβt stay in this hospital, I hate it so much.
I unfix the drip in my hand though blood was coming out but I donβt care, I climbed down from the bed and sneak to the door, I peep to know if thereβs anyone or nurses.
I tiptoe to the end of the corridor then follow the other corridor by my left. I succeeded in sneaking out of the hospital.
Just when I wanted to go out from gate, looking back to know if anyone was watching me, I end up hitting someone mistakenly I turned to know who the person was and behold it was Larry. My mouth went wild opened, my jaws drops.
{I thought he said heβs going home to change? How the hell did he comes back so quick? Not up to ten minutes he left} I thought staring at him.
βWhere are you sneaking to?β, He asked and I look down , I couldnβt utter a word
βWhy are you running away?β, He asked, I still didnβt say anything.
βCome letβs go to your wardβ, he said taking my hand
βNo, I donβt like staying at the hospitalβ, I said removing my hands from his.
βNobody likes to stay in hospital but you have to because of your health pleaseβ, he said
βAm scaredβ, I said crying
βDonβt be scared, am here with you ok?β, He asked he takes my hand again.
βWhat if they inject me when youβre not around?β, I asked, he chuckled and touch my cheeks
βYouβre funny, nobody is gonna do that ok?β, Be said and I nod.
We went back to my ward after much pleading with me.
DAYS LATER
His kid sister the waitress whose name I now know as Katie came to visit me twice at the hospital before I was discharged.
Larry took me to his house, he treats me like a queen. Heβs just a perfect guy, lively, caring, sweet and fun to be with.
I spent one week in his house before I decided to go back to my house to continue with my bad luck life.
βLarryβ, I called while we were eating
He was the one that prepared the food, heβs such a good cook.
βYes dearβ, he answered and look at me
βIβd be going back to my house tomorrowβ, I said
βWhy?β,
βBecause Iβve stayed him for too longβ,
βBut am not complainingβ,
βYou donβt have to complain, Iβm already doing it for youβ, I said and he smiled
βIf itβs about your job, I can be dropping you off at your workplace and come back to pick you in the eveningβ, he said
This is what am saying, heβs too caring I donβt think I deserve a man like him though he hasnβt say anything like relationship to me.
βLarry, if I tell you that I donβt have a job will you believe?β, I asked, he dropped his fork on the table
βWas it one of the reasons you were crying the day I saw you at the restaurant?β, He asked and I nod trying to hold back my tears
βI was sacked and throw out of the company by my boss that very dayβ, I said allowing the tears to poured out freely, he quickly came beside me.
βPlease stop crying you know I donβt like seeing you like thisβ, he said cleaning my tears with his thumb
βWhat was your crime?β, He asked when he noticed I was calm.
βI mistakenly poured coffee on him, that was my crimeβ, I said
βPlease whatβs the name of this company?β, He asked
βLasco manufacturing Companyβ, i Said, he suddenly moved away from me, I was surprised.
βWhatβs it?β, I asked
He didnβt answered, he rushed upstairs and came back within a blink of an eye. He brought his laptop close to me and opened it.
βIs it this company?β, He asked showing me a picture of the company
βYes, any problem?β, I asked
βNot really but am the CEO of the company Derrick sacked you because you mistakenly poured him coffee, hmm no problemβ, he said nodding his head.
I stand up and went close to him so close that we were feeling each others breath.
βAre you truly the CEO of Lasco manufacturing Company?β, I whispered, he held my face and stared directly into my eyes
βYes Iβmβ, he replied letting go of me.
βI thought Derrick is the CEO because of the way he behavesβ, I said
βHeβs not, the last time I visited that company was four Months ago, Iβve being busy with my other company so I barely have time for myselfβ, he said.
He even has another company, no wonder his house is this big and look expensive too.
βHmm whatβs the name of your other company?β, I asked
βLarryβs cosmetic company, do you still want to work?β, He asked and I nod.
We talked about other things like his parents and how he started his life with his only sister. He told me everything, their parents are dead and they are all alone in this world but not as lonely as Iβm for 28 years of my life.
If I had been alone in my house, depression would has killed me by now. I honestly feel better staying with him.
The next day, I went back to my house, he made me promised him that I wonβt cry, think or say negative words to myself like I always do.
He call me almost every minute to make sure am ok and Iβd keep telling him not to worry about me that am fine.
I like him so much and am always happy hearing from him.
A DAY LATER
I received a letter from him, I opened it and read.
It was an employment letter as a managing director in Lasco manufacturing Company, he sacked Derrick and put me in his position.
He also gifted me a brand new car, am so happy.
All those employees that were looking down on me will start looking up to me as their new boss.
They thought all conditions are permanent, God has answered my prayer and I bless the day I met Larry for he is a God sent to me.
On Monday morning at work was a boom, none of the employees believe their eyes that Iβm their boss and they will do what I say.
After work that day I went home with my new car, I parked at the corner of my house then step down, I carried my handbag and went to my door.
I opened my door and was about to enter when he called me.
βLydiaβ, I look back instantly as he removed his glasses and cap.
I was shocked that I lose my balance.
