Chapter 49 Too weak to be awake

Chapter 49

CLEOPATRA'S POV

"I love you Cleo." The words left his mouth freely.

"I really do." He exhales, "I know I messed up big time, I know I'm the reason you're in this situation. I should have listened to you, I shouldn't have pushed you away, now you are in this goddamn bed because of me."

"It's all my fault, I'm so sorry Cleo, please wake up, please. If you remain here I would be forced to stay beside you everyday of life." He left my hand and cupped my cheeks, resting his head on mine. I felt a liquid drop on my cheeks.

I'm I crying?

Of course, no! I can't even feel myself. My eyelids lifted up a bit and I saw his face, though blurry but I can make much of the expressions he made. I wasn't crying but he was, his tears had wetted my cheeks.

Awwn, what a cute baby.

"Please.. wake up Cleo." His voice quivered, making tiny whimperings. I wish I could but it's harder than you think Jerry, help me get out of this mess.
