Jay's POV:
Keifer arrived early, not to anyone's surprise because he was tailing me when I was driving. Jokes on him, my car was faster.
"Jay" he called me.
"What?" I answered, walking towards him.
Suddenly I felt a sharp pain shock throughout my body. Right now?! Why does it always have the worst timing?! I was going to spit out blood but I held it in.
I almost collapsed but Keifer came running towards me and caught me.
"What happened?!" He shouted, his concern showing in his voice.
"Keifer, can you make sure everything goes well and they have fun?" I asked, looking up at him.
"Jay! Be concerned of yourself first, they aren't important right now"
"It's not that big of a deal..it's just-.."
I think he thought I was on my period but no, it was the after effects of my past. When I did business deals when I was young, it wasn't common for there to be poison. I have a good tolerance, but I still have poison left in my body. It will go away in a few years but there are times when the symptoms show randomly and enormously, which can be called paroxysmal. Like right now.
He picked me up bridal style and carried me to his car.
"Are you on your period?" I knew it. I might as well be a fortune teller by how well I can predict people.
"No"
"You could have told me- wait what?"
"What is it then?" He asked, confused.
"I have…it's complicated."
The pain was so bad, it felt like I couldn't move my body because every inch hurt. He looked at me and he started driving, he saw the pain in my expression.
"We're going to one of my houses" he ordered.
I didn't have any energy to argue with him so I didn't say anything or refuse.
"Do you need something or want anything?"
"I want to die"
"Jay, don't say that, I could get you anything else"
That's what I want right now though.
"Jin Ramen?"
Keifer's POV:
Seriously? Is all she can think of is food? What's going on anyways? Why won't she tell me?
"So you aren't going to tell me what it is?"
"I have paroxysmal poisoning" she blurted out, clenching her stomach.
"What? Since when? Why? Who did it?" I asked, my hands gripping the wheel tighter.
"It doesn't matter he's dead now, what are you going to do, beat him up in his grave?"
Dead? Did she…no why am I even thinking like that? My Jay could never.
"That's what I want to do"
Is this related to her business or did it happen during one of her kidnappings? It doesn't matter, she has to stay safe.
"Is it serious"
"Yes I'm going to die soon"
My expression changed immediately and turned to a look of horror.
"Are you serious Jay?"
"Yes," she answered sadly.
Tears started falling down my face and I don't even cry. I can't lose another person. I can't live without Jay. She's my everything.
"J-Jay.. What about our marriage?!?" I stopped my car on the side of the road near my house.
"I'm joking Keifer!"
Is this girl trying to give me a heart attack?
"Really?" I asked hopefully.
"That's payback for the pregnancy incident Keifer," she smiled, "yOu sHOuLd'vE SeEN aT tHe lOoK oN yOuR FacE'" she mocked what I said back then.
"Jay please don't joke like that ever again"
"Oh and why are you so concerned about our marriage huh? Who said I agreed to it?"
"You did"
"When?" She tilted her head.
"You just said 'our' not 'your' which clearly shows you want to get married to me"
She laughed in pain, "Can we get out of the car, it still hurts!"
Suddenly, she coughed and blood came out of her mouth.
"JAY-JAY!"
"I'm fine" she waved her hand signaling it was okay.
I grabbed her and carried her inside. This was another residence I had for safety, not the one Keigan and Keiren live in, so we would be alone.
"Can you pleaseeee make sure everything goes fine so that the rest have a good trip… I don't want them to have their day ruined because of me" she pleaded with me.
Why does she think like that?
"Jay don't say that, you aren't ruining anyone's trip. It will be fine, be concerned for yourself" I assured her.
Jay's POV:
I nodded slightly as he placed me on the sofa in his living room.
The house was my type of house, marble floors, white, grey and black, clean, modern and pretty. It was huge too, expected of Keifer though. Even if it was bigger than my residence.
"Keifer I have medicine for it in my purse"
"Huh? Where's your purse?"
"You left it in the car"
His mouth went in an 'O' shape as he called someone to go get my purse and bring it to him.
"So will you explain how you got hurt? And don't say you will be fine after taking medicine, you have to stay here and rest"
How did he know I would say that? Maybe he's the one fit for the fortune telling role.
The butler brought over the purse and I opened it, taking out my bottle of medicine.
"Can I have water?"
"Of course wifey" he answered, rushing to personally get me water and he ran to the kitchen.
I took the water from his hands as he came back and I took the pill.
I placed the glass back on the table and put my bottle back in my purse.
"I'll be fine after taki-"
I suddenly remembered what he said a second ago and covered my face in my own stupidity.
I still did it after he asked me not to do it??
I guess it is instinct by now huh?
"Did you tell Aries I was here Keifer?"
"Of course not"
OF COURSE NOT? WHAT DOES HE MEAN BY OF COURSE NOT? IS HE TRYING TO DO SOMETHING FUNKY? SHOULD I GET MY SLIPPER AND SMACK HIM?
Wow Jay, professional over thinker huh?
I'll text him tomorrow. My stomach growled and I heard him chuckle. This son of a bit-!
I smacked his back lightly.
"Keifer"
"Yes, wifey?"
"I'm hungry"
"What do you want to eat?"
"Ramyeon"
"What type?"
"I want 3 packets"
He smiled slightly and it seemed as if he was holding back his laughter.
"MARK KEIFER WATSON I WILL DRIVE BACK TO MY OWN HOME IF YOU CONTINUE LIKE THIS!"
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" He held my hands as I attacked him.
"Anyhow," I cleared my throat, stopping,"I want ottogi yeul, and 2 packets of spicy Jin ramyeon" I stood on the sofa dramatically.
He blinked, "Wh-what's that?" He grabbed my waist and put me down.
"Instant ramen"
"You shouldn't eat that it's not good for your bo-"
"You're not good for me either!" I reminded him.
"So chop chop and get someone to eat that ramen Keifer" I smiled menacingly.
His eye twitched as he called a maid to order it quickly.
"What?" I asked as he stared at me in disbelief.
"Oh nothing" he snapped out of his thoughts, "I just thought that you would want something more…more…uhhhh…grand"
"I've eaten so much fancy food that it doesn't taste good anymore. Normal food hits home. Nostalgia is the most powerful ingredient after all."
Was he thinking I was some spoiled brat after finding out my worth? Ehhh probably not. It's unlikely.
I'm hungry.
"Keifer," I said, placing my head on his lap.
"Yes, wifey?"
"I'm hungry. Make it come quicker"
"Wait a little" he told me, "I'm hungry too"
"What do you want to eat then?" I played with his hair in my hands as he lowered his head for me to reach it.
He better not say anything weird…
"You"
I pulled back my hand immediately, "YOU WEIRDO", I screamed running from him.
"I'm joking..for now" he teased running after me.
He caught me and our lips smashed against each other's. Gym incident all over again?!?
I pushed him and was about to punch him when he stopped me, placing his hand on my fist, covering it.
"Calm down" he smiled and kissed my cheeks, making me blush.
This..this! This annoying!
"Get my ramen and I will calm down"
"4 more minutes it's here but has to cook"
"I wanna cook it!"
"You can go to the kitchen then" he placed a kiss on my forehead. Totally unnecessary.
I headed to the kitchen and saw my beloved ramyeon. MY BABIESSSSSSS.
I boiled 2 separate pots. I cut scallions diagonally, then left the green ones out while adding in the white ones into the boil. I put in the powder packet and mixed it. Then when it was done, I split it into 3 bowls. 2 bowls of Jin ramyeon and 1 of Yeul.
This way I have Jin and Yeul and Keifer has Jin! I will eat more! As I should.
I set the bowls down on the table and called Keifer.
"It looks good," he commented.
"It's taste good too"
"How do you know? You haven't tried it yet" he asked me.
"I can tell, somethings just taste and look good naturally"
"Like you?"
He keeps flirting with me! Annoying!
"Sh-shut up and eat" I ordered him, biting my lip and slurping down my food quickly.
I stood up to wash the dishes but the maids refused to let me and washed them.
"You're my wife, you don't have to remember?"
Since when was I your wife Keifer? I digress.
Keifer and I played monopoly since we were bored. Luckily the butler volunteered to join and be the banker! How nice of him!
I checked my phone and I had several missed calls and texts, mostly from my brothers and Angelo. It was 11:43 already?!? How?! I guess spending time with Keifer makes it go by fast.
"We should go to sleep"
"We? You're planning to sleep with me already?" He covered his chest with his arms dramatically.
"No Keifer. No. You can sleep in the guest room"
"Isn't this my house?" Keifer muttered, "I mean, yes wifey!"
Good.
I got changed and everything was in my size. How does he still remember? Creep.
I went in bed and slowly drifted asleep. I felt someone's hand around my waist and quickly knew it was Keifer's but chose to ignore it. He did something nice today anyways.
