Chapter 14 - Mark Is Substitute For Lizard..
Anna's POV:
I wake up at 7.30 a.m. in the morning..
My body was sore..
Maybe because of medicines..
I went to the washroom..
All the items in the washroom are new.
Brush.. Soap.. Shampoo.. Everything..
I ask Nany that I can use them?
She said she arranged them just because of her.
I want to take a bath..
But my wound dressing may get wet..
So, it's better I should pour water below my chest and I will clean my shoulder with a wet towel..
I tie my hair in a pony..
I forgot about the clothes..
I ask Nany about clothes..
She handed me a cover where I find similar long, loose t-shirts 10..
Matching shorts 10 similar to the last nightdress and panties of my size.. And am looking for my bra.. I didn't find..
Anna: Nany did you buy these new clothes..
I think 2 pairs are sufficient for, why waste of money..
Nany: (smile on her face) its not me beta..
Its sir, he handed over me these covers at 5 a.m. In the morning..
Anna: 5 a.m.?
Nanny: yes beta..
He usually wakes up between 5 to 6 and starts his work out for one and half hour..
Anna: Nanny Why don't you arrange some undergarments..?
Nanny: doctor strictly told me to not to keep bra beta..
If I help you sir, may get angry..
Anna: what? (Why the hell in the world he will get angry..?) (I can remember yesterday night his words.. Better not to wear undergarments)
He embarrassed me always..
O.K Nany am going to bath
Nanny: I will help you beta..
Anna: no need Nany I can manage..
Actually, I feel shy if someone saw me nude..
So..
Nany: don't feel shy beta..
I am like your mom..
Do you remember after your treatment I am the one who dressed you..
Anna: ok Nany, I feel like it's better if you help me..
After I finish my bath.. I kept a towel with me and take the pink t-shirt and black shorts..
I didn't observe before..
The t-shirt includes the padding of the bra..
So it doesn't look odd..
It fits comfortably..
Nany saw me and compliment me..
That I look pretty in that t shirt..
Later I lose my hair and I comb..
Meanwhile, Nany ask me to come for breakfast or she should carry to this room
I felt very hungry.. It's been 2days I have food..
I don't like to eat in the bedroom and I don't like to use maidens for my personal work..
So I told Nany that I will come to the dining table..
It's a long table.. I sat in the chair where I can see the kitchen in front of me..
My back shows the upstairs (duplex) steps for all bedrooms..
I can see a few more maids who are hurrying in working..
Then I saw the entire house in one turn..
And think that he is the only person Mark, who stays here now with so many maids..
I get glances of Ria that we both usually have lunch here on Sundays..
Mark is busy with his parties or girlfriends or office work I don't know the correct reason I didn't meet him..
I just saw him twice or thrice.. When he is going outside or coming inside..
Then the house is ours, we play a lot..
We play pillow fight.. Video games.. Basketball..
Sometimes we dance...
Tears fill in my eyes when am thinking about her..
I just want to remove them that no one should notice..
Because the nanny is taking good care of me, she may feel sad..
Meanwhile, Nany entered the dining hall with 6 sandwiches..
I just want to eat all of them..
I feel very hungry..
Cheese smell tempting me so much..
She served me 2 sandwiches...
I take the first bite and I close my eyes it's really yummy...
I just moan "mmmmmmmm"
And I said "Nany it's delicious" and I open my eyes and I take 2nd bite.. And raise my head..
I was dead..
Suddenly hiccups started
MARK..
Its Mark, who sat before me and staring at me awkwardly..
Why the hell this happens to me..
I tried to take 3rd bite I again get hiccups..
Mark: "Have some water...
Your sandwich won't run away.."
Anna: after listening to his words, my hiccups stopped maybe because I was scared for him..
Yes, my mom usually says that hiccups will stop when we scared of something..
She always pranks a lizard trick..
I am scared of lizards.. So she says lizard on my shoulder that's it, I will get up and dance..
And my hiccups will automatically stop..
Now my substitute for lizard is Marks's voice..
No, no the substitute for lizard is Mark..
I feel funny when I imagine his face with a lizard..
Yeah, he always scolds me when I call his name as Mark..
So from today, his pet name is a lizard..
How funny..
I just laugh to forget about mark sit in front of me..
Mark: "What makes you laugh.. I just told drink some water.."
Anna: "Am fine.. "
And I have another bite of sandwich..
Meanwhile, he ate 2 sandwiches and drink some fresh orange juice and went to his room..
I finished 2 sandwiches and Nany kept another 2 sandwiches in my plate..
I pretend not to eat..
But am still starving..
I act like I ate extra sandwiches just because of Nany's force..
Meanwhile, a woman enters the hall..
She well dressed.. Blessed and looks like a friend we share everything.
I stare at her..
She wishes me "Hi Anna.. How are you?
Anna: feel better...
And I stare on Nany that who's she that she knows my name too...
Nany introduces that she is the doctor Mona, who take care of me..
I immediately stand to show my respect and gratitude to her..
She immediately comes to me and put her hand on my shoulder and said.. No formalities Anna..
Feel free..
Are you ready to dress up your wound?
Anna: sure Dr.. I will follow you to the bedroom..
Dr Mona: Anna no formalities between us..
Just call me Mona, it's comfortable.. ok?
Anna: ok...
We both went to our room for dressing my wound..
Nany also comes along with us to help..
I sat on my bed..
nany close the door and help Mona..
First, she cleaned my wrist wound with hydrogen peroxide..
It hurts a lot, tears filled my eyes..
Nanny came near me, I hold Nanys hand with my other hand..
After that, she cleaned my neck wound..
It also hurts a bit, but I can bear..
And then..
Dr. Mona: can you remove your shirt?
Anna: I feel shy, can you manage if I flip my shoulder sleeve to down.. I moved my shirt down towards my hand, it's clear coverage of my wound..
Dr.Mona: (smile on her face) ok..
She takes the cotton and she pours the hydrogen peroxide and spirit.
I suddenly scream loudly..
I can't bear this pain. Tears fall from my eyes..
But Mona didn't disturb on my screams and she continued her work with cleaning the wound and pack with cotton pads,...
My face is full of red..
I then saw Mona she's just taking injections..
Anna: Mona is that injectable for me?
Dr. Mona: Yes, dear..
I stand and started moving little by little towards the door..
Mona is busy with filling with medicine..
Then she saw me.. And ask," are you scared of injections?"
Anna: I am scared of needles...
Please Mona, can you give me a tablet instead of injection.
Dr.Mona: sorry dear...
It's an antibiotic.
I need to give this to you it will heal your wound soon...
(By saying that she started moving towards Anna)
Anna: please Mona I will eat 10 more tablets instead of this injection..
(Am saying that and am moving towards door..)
It won't hurt Anna
Anna: please, please.. I will do anything..
(I handle the doorknob)..
Mona: Don't dare to escape from me Anna..
I treat so many patients like you.. (she is just coming close to me)
Nanny, please help me..
Please say to Mona no needles...
Nanny: Anna beta it won't hurt..
Let's cooperate..
Both of them are coming near me..
I opened the knob and I entered outside suddenly my head hit something..
