My Emotionless Goddess

Sleep



Today was the fourth day after that tragic accident at the warehouse. Ava was finally discharged from the hospital and went back to their Villa. Stacy was worried about her mental health so she accompanied her. It was also convenient for her to check on her and dress her wounds that hadn’t healed yet.

Stacy

Stacy had just finished preparing breakfast and served it to Ava but the woman spared the food no glance. She just sat, staring at nothing. Occasionally, she would just burst to tears that would last for hours.

” You should eat your breakfast.” Stacy informed the woman who had a far away look on her face as if she was on planet Mars.

Seeing that Ava had no intention of eating nor talking to her, Stacy lost her temper. Yes, she could understand her pain, afterall losing the person you love hurts like hell but that was no excuse to neglect one’s health especially now that sfe was still recovering.

” You better eat your food and face the reality Ava. We are also hoping that Ronald survived and is out there making his way back to you but it’s been four days already. We have searched every neighbouring town but there is not a trace of him. Do you think he’s happy wherever he is seeing you neglect your body like this?” Stacy bursted. For three days, Ava survived with only the intravenous drip connected to her. Now that she was awake, she had to take food to replenish her energy and recover faster.

” No, Ronald is not dead. He can’t be dead.”Ava said, crying hysterically.

” I never said he’s dead.” Stacy retorted.

” But your words suggest that. Ronald cannot die on me, he can’t bear to leave me alone.” She said, sobbing hard.

” Okay, since you believe he’s alive. You should eat and regain your energy so that you can go looking for him.” Stacy coerced softly. She understood that her friend was hurt but she couldn’t let her continue hurting herself more.

Stacy’s suggestion sounded like a good plan to Ava. Since they couldn’t find her Man, she should get well and go looking for him herself. She believed that she had higher chances of finding him. Afterall she could feel it deep inside her that he was alive somewhere, waiting for her to come to his rescue.

Without waiting to be fed, she picked up the cutlery and started digging in with gusto. All she had in mind was regaining her energy and going to look for her man. Looking at her devouring the food, Stacy was glad the strategy to get Ava to eat worked. She knew that psychological manipulation will do the trick otherwise the food would remain untouched which was not good for her health.

After taking her breakfast, Ava obediently took her medicine without making a fuss. The medicine Made her feel drowsy so Stacy helped her upstairs and stayed with her until she fell asleep. She descended the stairs planning to go wash the dishes when she caught a figure seated comfortably on the sofa. Stacy jumped on her feet upon laying her eyes on the Man.

Then she carefully studied the man and her eyes widened in shock as she rushed to the man.

” R- Ronald!!” She stuttered, not quite believing her eyes. For a minute there she thought she was hallucinating or perhaps her eyes were playing a prank on her until she poked his chest and he felt real.

” What the hell happened to you? Where have you been?” She asked without giving him time to answer. She was shocked silly but at the same time, relief washed her mind seeing him alive. She was happy.

” Which one do I answer first?” Ronald asked weakly. After walking for hours, he finally got home. He could feel all his muscles on fire and body worn out. He couldn’t contact any of his men to help him because he didn’t have a phone in the First place. The people he met didn’t spare him a second glance and avoided him as if he was a plague. Of Course, who wouldn’t be? He was covered with dirt all over his body, his clothes were tattered. He had a four day old stubble and hair unkempt. Under those circumstances, even he would think that he was crazy.

After finding his direction, he walked back home avoiding the clear paths, afraid that those bastards would still be in search of him.

” Don’t answer.. go take a shower first, you really stink.. then I’ll dress your wounds.” Stacy said, covering her nose. She was pregnant and sensitive to any smell and the foul smell of dirt and sweat was nauseating.

Knowing her condition, Ronald did not pick a fight with her, he was too exhausted to do that. He walked to the guest room on the same floor and took a bath. Good thing he had his clothes there otherwise it would have been awkward calling for help.

After he cleaned up, he felt better. Stacy served him piping hot porridge which he devoured like a hungry beast. He was hungry after not having a decent meal for four days. His wounds were dressed and he was given a tetanus shot.

Stacy left since her work there was done after reminding him to call if anything happened. After he bid her goodbye, Ronald pulled his body upstairs and entered their bedroom. He saw his woman sleeping peacefully like a baby. Crawling to her side, he planted a gentle kiss on her lips before pulling her to himself and allowing sleep to take over.

Ava was the First to stir after the effect of the medicine wore off. She tried moving only to find out she was locked in a tight embrace. She panicked but when the familiar body scent hit her, she momentarily relaxed before her eyes widened in surprise .

That scent only belonged to Ronald, there was no mistaking but how? Turning slowly, she was greeted by that all familiar Greek god face. He was sleeping with a content expression on his face. Like he was in his safe Haven. Ava couldn’t control the tears streaming down her cheeks. She let them flow freely because they were tears of Joy. The joy of seeing her man alive.

The silent sobs awoke Ronald up. He opened his eyes groggily and saw the most beautiful and attractive woman by his side. Even her cries were beautiful. Without thinking much, he pulled her into his arms and consoled her.

” Shhhh!! Don’t cry beautifully.” Ronald said, rubbing her back in a circular motion to help her stop crying.

” Did i Wake you up? Do you want to sleep some More?” While he was concerned about her, she was worried that she woke him up without getting enough sleep.

” No, I’m fine. I just want to watch my beautiful woman.” Ronald said with a smile, an attempt to cheer her up.

” Okay.” Ava said, a blush spreading throughout her face painting her red.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

” Come lie down with me, I missed you.” Ronald said and Ava complied. They lied, without talking, enjoying each other’s warmth.
