The Proud Boss Lady.

Chapter 41: 41

" Hey," Nurse Gina and Dr Lilly sat beside Miguel and May at the cafeteria.

“ Hi, what's up?" May asked them.

"Nothing much, I was just about leaving. I'd leave you ladies to catch up." Miguel said walking off.

“So?" Gina asked her friend.

“What?" May pretended not to understand what Gina was talking about.

" What's going on between both of you, May. Stop keeping us in suspense." Lilly rolled her eyes at her.

“ Nothing, we're just getting to know each other. That's it," she said truthfully.

“ You sure?" Gina asked.

" If something was going on between both of us, you girls would be the first to know," May said.

“I've been paged. I'd see you, girls, later." May walked off.

“ She's in denial." Lilly put.

" She sure is," Gina added laughing. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“ Hey, are you okay?" Mase placed his hand on her forehead. She was burning up.

“ We need to go see a doctor, Jackie. You're running a temperature," he stated.

She still didn't answer him. He shook her, but she wasn't moving nor opening her eyes.

Mase began to panic as he carried her bridal style down the staircase to the car.

Thank God she's fully dressed. She was wearing grey joggers and a big sweatshirt he had given her

long ago.

He reached the hospital as they rushed her in to check what was wrong with her.

Please, please, please be alright. He silently prayed.

“Sir, sir?" the nurse tapped him in his shoulder waking him up. He hadn't realised the time he slept off.

“How's she?" he asked immediately wiping sleep off his face.

“She's fine, she just had a fever, that's what made her pass out." the doctor explained.

"Can I go see her now?" he inquired.

"Of course you can, let me show you the way." she lead him.

Thank goodness she's fine.

You like her. His conscience teased.

Shut up, I don't besides she likes someone else. he argued.

Poor confused man-child. His conscience shaded as he entered the ward.

"From the day that I met you, girl

I knew that your love would be

Everything that I ever wanted in my life

From the moment you spoke my name

I knew everything had changed

Because of you, I felt my life would be complete

Oh, baby, I need you

For the rest of my life, girl

I need you

To make everything right, girl

I love you

And I'll never deny that

I need you

Nothing matters but you, my love

And only God above

Could be the one to know exactly how I feel

I could die in your arms right now

Knowing that you somehow

Would take my soul and keep it

Deep inside your heart

Oh, baby, I need you

For the rest of my life, girl

I need you

To make everything right, girl

I love you

And I'll never deny that

I need you

Girl, your love to me feels just like magic

When you smile you have total control

You have power like nothing I felt before

I've let all of my feelings show

'Cause I want you to know

That I need you

I need you

For the rest of my life, girl

I need you

Say that you'll be my wife

Oh, I love you

Won't you marry me, marry me

I need you

Oh, I need you

For the rest of my life

Oh, I need you

Won't you marry me, marry me

I love you

I need you, baby

I need you

Girl, I need, I need you

Girl, I need you

Need you, baby

Oh, baby

I love you

I need you, girl I need you, need you

Babe, oh baby

Won't you marry me

Won't you marry me, marry me

I love you

Oh, I need you..." Mase sat on Jackie's bed singing her this song. She was still. asleep when he first

entered the ward.

“ Who do you love?" she asked startling him.

“ Thank goodness you're awake. You scared me." he changed the topic.

" Thank you for bringing me here on time, Mase. Now, who do you love?" she sat upright.

" Someone, she probably doesn't even love me back. She already confessed she lived someone else."

he sighed.

"Did she mention whom?" her interest piqued.

"No, she didn't," he admitted.

" Maybe you've got it all wrong, Mase. Maybe she loves you, but you just can't seem to----"

He cut her off by kissing her.

“ I-I-I am sorry." he tried to scramble to his feet as she held his arm, pulled him back and kissed him

passionately.

Oh, how I've waited for this.

" Err er ermm." the doctor cleared her throat as their faces flushed red in embarrassment.

" Umm, hi," Noah said as he met Soraya at the supermarket.

" Hey, how have you been?" she asked.

" I've been better, what of you?" he inquired.

“Great actually, I feel bad about how things ended, I'm so---

"Sorry that things didn't work out?" He finished for her.

“ Yeah, I'm sorry." she apologized again.

" That's fine dear, it's all in the past now. I'm over it and so should you," he told.

"Okay, then. I guess I'd see you around then." she walked off.

" How does time fly so fast. It was like just yesterday that you both entered college and you're

graduating tomorrow." Sunny said to Kieth and Lex.

" Yeah, and you both would be joining us soon." Lex sighed. He and Hailey were on a break from their

relationship. Things didn't seem to be working out well for them. They decided it was better off they

were friends. Maybe it would work out for them someday, but for now, they were just normal friends.

" I can't wait to officially fly a plane," Hailey said excitedly.

" You're gonna be a great pilot soon, I can't wait for you to fly me across the world," Lex added.

" Enough of the plane talk, I'm starving, let's go get some food to eat. The tension here is too thick."

Keith added as Sunny nodded in agreement.
