399 Visiting Harry 2 (2/2)
”Can you coax him to eat, dear?” Mrs Si flutteted her eyes at Ryn, hoping the younger lady could do as she requested.
”Well, I...” Ryn coughed to cover her uncomfortable feeling. This was not what she has in mind when she decided to come here.
She came here to visit Harry and then would leave to look for a place to sleep!
”Harry, Ryn and I are here to visit you,” Mei Li stepped forward to inform the unconscious Harry. She carefully walked closer as she did not want the maid accidentally dropped the tray and broke those two expensive dishes. She did not think she has enough money to pay back those two fragile items. They looked so expensive!
Ryn nodded unconsciously when she heard Mei Li's words. She leaned down and patted Harry's arm, frowning when she realized how hot it was. Without thinking, she took the cloth resting on Harry's forehead and found it was no longer wet and cold. She dropped it into a small basin made with expensive crystal and squeezed out the water before she folded it into small rectangular and placed it onto his forehead. She did not notice the shock look from Mei Li and the maid nor the huge smile from Mrs. Si. All she could think of was to reduce the temperature so Harry would not get sicker.
Silently she wondered why the doctor did not insist of bringing Harry to the hospital and put him on the IV? He looked so pale and uncomfortable.
Harry, feeling something not usual, struggled to open his eyes. His nose was blocked but he could smell something familiar. Something that he knew belong to the one and only Ryn, the woman in his heart. Was he so sick until he was delirious? His fever brought him Ryn?
Maybe this was a dream, he decided, as he struggled to open his eyes. He felt like he used all his energy just to do that and the first person he saw when he managed to open his eyes were her.
”Ryn?” he choked out breathlessly.
Ryn quickly leaned down and patted his arm again. ”Mei Li and I are here to visit you.”
She pointed at the manager who was standing not far. But all Harry could see was her, Ryn.
His eyes shone brightly at the sight of Ryn. His muddled head thought this was just a dream. He was missing her so much so she appeared in his dream. Unconsciously he smiled tenderly at her.
Mei Li's brows lifted when she saw how Harry was behaving. Her heart skipped. This was not right. Somehow she felt this would end up badly. Mei Li looked at the elderly woman, at Mrs Si, and hoped the elderly woman would notice how Harry was reacting and put a stop to it. Ryn already has a boyfriend and she was so in live with Jeremy to notice anyone else. However, to her horror, she saw Mrs Si smiling tenderly, even rubbing her hands happily.
Wait. Happily? Why would Mrs Si be happy when her som was still sick on the bed?
Uh oh.... This doesn't seem right.
”Ryn?” Harry choked out again and winced. His throat was do dry, it was uncomfortable to speak.
”You should drink to wet your throat. Come, I help you sitting up,” without thinking, Ryn leaned even lower to help Harry moving to sit up. She even adjusted the thick blanket around him. Then, she signalled for the maid to hive her the glass and personally helped Harry to drink it.
Harry smiled. He could not help from smiling. His heart was beating so furiously fast when she was so close to him. He could smell her scent so fragrant, only belonged to her. And he felt better. The headache he was having hours ago no longer hurting him as he took a deep breath, greedily smelling her.
”Dear, please help feeding him,” Mrs Si reminded. She was so happy to see her son finally sitting up and drinking water. She took this chance to feed her son so Harry would get better quicker. With food and with love, he would get well soon enough. Maybe tomorrow he would get back to normal, she believed.
Harry was like her husband. Even when her husband sick which was so rare, he would turn childish and only eat his food and medicine when she personally feeding him. He would refuse to even touch them without her presence. That was why she was insisted for the dear Ryn to come here. Only Catherine could make her son feeling better.
