Are You Jealous?

Next day.

Rachel was sitting lazily on the chair with her legs stretched out. She picked up her phone and dialed a familiar number.

On the other side.

Mina picked up Chad's phone and saw Rachel's name displayed on the screen. She turned her head to look at Chad who was sleeping, accepted the call and put it closer to her ear.

"Chad" Rachel's sweat voice sounded on the phone.

"Rachel, why are you calling Chad?" Mina's voice was cold.

Rachel shot out of her chair when she heard Mina's voice. Her grip tightened on the phone involuntarily. "Give the phone to Chad. I want to speak with him not you" Rachel was angry.

Mina laughed. "Chad does not want to talk to you. He gave the phone to me to answer the call. He does not love you. Are you not ready to give up?"

"Me? Give up? Or you should be the one to give up. I am sure you took Chad's phone and sneaked it out when you saw my name"

Rachel knew Chad will never give his phone to Mina especially when she is the one calling. She knew Mina sneaked out his phone or something to answer her call.

This Mina is really something else. She even has the guts to pick up Chad's phone. Does she really wants to die?

"Haha... Me? Sneak out his phone? You are really dumb, Rachel. So dumb" Mina laughed.

"Mina, you are playing with fire. You know if Chad finds out that you took his phone to answer my call, you are doom. I am warning you Mina, stay away from Chad" Rachel's face was red and she began to boil in anger.

"Are you jealous? I have been the one taking care of him since he got to the hospital and you want me to stay away from him" Mina laughed scornfully. "It's because you can't get anywhere close to him that's why you are jealous. It's such a pity"

"Mina! I. Am. Warning. You. Stay away from him"

"Oops! Someone is about to burst. Dear Rachel, I am so so sorry for making you angry. I just want to tell you that..."

"Why are you with my phone?"

Mina immediately hung up the phone and deleted Rachel's name from the history call log. She turned back only to see Chad's cold eyes staring at her. She trembled with fear as she said, "Em... Chad... I... It was a call from the company and you were sleeping so that's why I picked it for you"

Chad stared at her for few seconds before stretching out his hand to collect his phone. Mina handed his phone over to him and Chad collected it. He opened his phone and browse through it. Mina's heart began to beat faster. If Chad can check his phone and sees that she was lying, then she is done for. She began to pray silently.

Chad looked at the screen of his phone for few seconds before dropping it on the bed, then he closed his eyes again. Mina let out a sigh of relief and patted her chest. She thought Chad will catch her this time.

"I will tell the maids to get you your food" she said and turned to leave, but she was stopped by Chad. "I don't want to eat" he said. Mina turned to face him and smiled, "Then I will leave you to rest now" she said and left the room.

As soon as she left, Chad opened his eyes and sat up in bed. He picked up his phone and checked his history call log. There was no call from the company. Rage ran red through his brain, but he tried to still his rage. His jaw tightened and his lips curled into a smile, "This Mina is really playing with fire" he said aloud.

On the other side.

Rachel heard Chad's voice and before she could say anything, Mina had already hung up the phone. She threw her phone on the chair and pursed her lips. Johanna came out of her room listening to music, but when she saw Rachel's face expression, she stopped the music and walked up to her.

"What happened to you? Why is your face like this?" she asked.

"That Mina is getting on my nerves already. She dare pick Chad's call. Who does she think she is?"

"What? She picked Chad's call?"

"Yes" she replied and turned to face Johanna. "Johanna, please help me. "I want to see Chad. I am tired of waiting"

"Now you know how it feels" Johanna said and walked away.

"Huh?" Rachel watched Johanna's back disappeared out of the living room. She was confused. She did not understand what Johanna was saying. Johanna entered the living room again. "Are you not going to the farm?" she asked and left the room again. Rachel immediately ran after her. The both of them left the house together.

"Johanna, you really have to help me. I have to see Chad"

"..."

Later in the afternoon at the hospital.

Chad was sitting on the bed fiddling with some company documents. He can't stay in the hospital and do nothing. Even though his parents are helping him in the company, but still he does not want to be idle. He told joy to send to him the documents he has not attended to.

The door suddenly pushed opened and Emman, Billy and James came in. Chad raised his head and saw his friends. He quickly dropped the documents in his hand and plastered a smile on his face.

"Bro, we are sorry for not visiting yesterday. We had a lot on our plate yesterday" Billy said and smiled. Chad said nothing, but smile.

"So how are you feeling now?" James asked as he sat on the couch in the room. He picked up an apple, nibbled away the apple peel, then ate the flesh.

"You can see that I am doing fine now. I just can't wait to go back home. I am sick and tired of staying in this hospital" Chad said.

Emman, "Hey man, calm down. You just woke up yesterday and you want to go back home. Seriously, it's not as if your house is running away"

James, "Or he can't wait to see Rachel"

Chad smiled, "Both"

"See, I knew it. He wants to go home because of Rachel" James said and laughed.

"Taking of Rachel, have you heard of her, Chad?" Emman asked with seriousness in his voice.

"No" Chad said. "My mom won't allow her to come visit me. I am not even allowed to pick her calls, or even call her. That's why I want to go home" his voice was heavy with sadness.

Mrs Torres did not allow him to make any phone calls to Rachel. He knew that if he is at home, no one will stop him, but because he is at the hospital, he was not allowed. He feels as if he is a bondage. Not allowed to call whoever he wants and do whatever he wants.

Billy, "We can help you bring her here"

Chad raised his head and smiled, "I don't want to bother you guys"

James, "When you get out of here, we should celebrate"

Chad, "Where do you want us to go to?"

James, "To tiki rest bar and their should be a lots of girls there too. I have not felt their bodies for a long time now"

Emman, "Yeah, that's true. I really miss their soft, smooth, flawless skin. I can't just wait to see them again"

Billy, "Especially those bar dancers. Their bodies are just so sexy. Even with the way they dance, gosh you will go crazy with their moves"

These men are really not ashamed of themselves. Chad looked at them speechlessly. These people know nothing, but girls. They continued to talk like that and Chad will look at them and smiled.

Sometimes, they will talk about girls with big boob and ass. Chad will glance at them and shook his head. At a moment, he regretted allowing them to stay for long. They have just been saying things that are not pleasant to the ear.

Later at night.

A maid came in with a cart filled with food. Behind her was Mrs Torres and Mina. The maid put the cart beside Chad's bed, bow and left. Mrs Torres held Chad put a bowl of soup on the overbed table and spooned the soup and blew air on it gently. She moved it closer to his mouth. Chad opened his mouth and sipped the soup. Mrs Torres fed him like a baby. Though he is her only child and she pampered him so much. Soon, Chad finished the bowl of soup.

Mrs Torres called the maid to help pack the plates. After, a nurse came in and she gave Chad his drugs to take. The nurse removed his duvet from his body and do a quick checkup on him, then she left.

"You should go to bed now" Mrs Torres said and help her son lie down on the bed, then she covered him with the duvet and kissed his forehead She turned to Mina and said, "Take good care of him, okay?"

Mina nodded and walked Mrs Torres out of the room. When she came back, Chad was already sleeping. She tiptoe to him so he won't wake up and kissed his forehead, then she climbed on her bed, covered herself and soon, she fell asleep.
