Chapter 41: Am I dreaming?

I woke up a day later.

I looked at my left arm and saw that there was gauze covering it.

Then the door to my room opened.

A guy stepped in.

He had olive skin, grey eyes, and short black hair that was slicked back.

'Please be a dream', I thought inside my head.

I rubbed my eyes and then opened them.

He was still there.

He sat down in a chair next to my bed.

" You feeling okay?", he asked me.

" Yeah why?", I asked him.

" You just had surgery ", he told me.

" SURGERY!", I yelled, as I sat up too fast in the hospital bed.

" Oww!", I yelped regretting moving my body at all.

He got up and made me lay back down.

" Who are you?", I asked him.

" Alex Gooden ", he told me.

I thought about his name for a minute then it hit me:

I WAS IN THE SAME ROOM WITH A MILLIONAIRE!

I stared at him in shock.

He smiled.

" You're Alex Gooden the millionaire?", I asked him.

He nodded. " Yes".

I would have fell out of bed in shock, if he didn't catch me.

" You have to be careful Ms.Green", he said to me, as he put me back on the bed.

I didn't look at him.

I let the silence take over.

Then I saw him frown out of the corner of my eye.

" Your not in pain right?", he asked me.

" No", I said.

" Then what's the matter?", he asked.

" My family must be worried about me", I told him.

He shook his head.

" I went over to your house and told them what happened".

I sighed in relief, because that last thing I needed was seven gangs looking for me.

" When can I go home?", I asked him.

"You're not", he said calmly.

" What do you mean I'm not?", I asked him.

" Your family decided that it would be best if you stayed with me for a while", he replied.
