Chapter fifteen
Raina got up feeling much better. She didn't see Carly in the house, she knows Carly might be outside. She sat up on the couch, she didn't really feel weak or dizzy like before. Carly suddenly came inside, she smiled on seeing Raina awake.
"Thank God you've decided to come back to life. I was scared for a moment thinking something really bad has happened to you." Carly lamented sitting beside her and hugging her tight.
"Carly you're going to really choke me to death if you don't stop now." Raina said.
Carly released her with a slight frown, "You're still as grumpy as you are. Now I feel like I made a bad decision when I asked Jasper to save you."
Raina's body went numb at the mention of Jasper. She felt her cheeks burn in embarrassment. The thought of having Jasper save her life made her unable to face him. She remembered what happened to her in the water. She got leg cramps and could not swim any longer. So she tried to move, but she kept sinking and drowning. That's all she remembers until Jasper carried her to the house.
"How did he find me? And what did he do to save me?" She asked weird but curious questions.
"You're saying you don't know you drowned? I actually came out of the water and called him for help. He got into the water without hesitation and saved you, he had to kiss you-"
"Stop." Raina cut in. "Did you say he kissed me?"
"Yes duh. You were not responding, that was the only way to do it. Would you have preferred that I do it? Eeew I'm not a lesbian okay? He even went all the way to make you a special soup with the best recipes from the best doctors and this is your way of thanking him. Don't be ungrateful Raina. You better behave yourself." Carly scolded and walked out.
Raina got the blanket off herself. She went to the bathroom and had a long bath. Then she got something else to wear from her bag. She came back to the living room and heard laughter coming from the kitchen.
She also perceived a sweet aroma, her stomach suddenly grumbled. She was hungry, she walked into the kitchen to see who Carly was talking to. The last she remembers, Carly doesn't like cooking much.
She got to the kitchen and met a strange surprise. Carly wasn't the one cooking. It's actually Jasper. They were both laughing while Jasper cooked, he was wearing an apron too. He looked so manly, she lost herself staring at him for a moment. Then she wondered how they got the ingredients to cook so fast. She walked out of the kitchen quietly.
She kept wondering why Jasper was in her kitchen cooking. Yeah, the beach house belonged to her but Carla or her sister Freida are the ones who mostly uses it. She stayed in the living room thinking of what to do, the laughter in the kitchen suddenly made her uncomfortable. Even though the person in question is her friend, she felt a bit envious. He gets along with Carla so well but always fights when it comes to her.
She heard footsteps coming her way, she pretended to be on the phone. She assumed they did not notice her presence in the kitchen the other time. She recognized the familiar perfume to be her friends own.
"Hey Raina. Since you're done now, join us for lunch. Jasper made lunch especially for us. But I think it's mostly because of you." Carly said.
"Why would he make lunch because of me? Did I do anything to deserve that?" Raina asked confused.
"Well he feels bad because of what happened to you. He keeps blaming himself for being unable to protect you and being incompetent with his job. So he thought about making us lunch, and trust me he's a great cook. You're gonna love his food." Carly emphasized.
Raina was not getting why Jasper would blame himself for something that's not even his fault. She went into the water herself, she drowned because of her leg cramp. Why is he making up for something he did not do? She suddenly felt uncomfortable, she didn't want to see him.
But Carly dragged her to the dining table, "Come on Raina. Let's go have lunch and stop thinking about it. This is a great opportunity."
Carly dragged her to the dining table where Jasper was setting the table. He already finished setting the table and bringing out all the food. Jasper had not been able to see or talk to Raina since he saved her life. He did feel her presence in the kitchen earlier but decided to ignore it since she left.
Raina avoided eye contact with him, she feels stupid for acting strange all of a sudden. Now he's someone she can't even face? How great is that?
"Hmmm... This is going to be so good. Raina you need to taste this." Carly nudged her.
Raina looked at Jasper who's gaze if fixed intently on her.
"Umm... Thanks for your help." She managed to say.
Jasper smiled genuinely at her for the first time, "I'm only doing my job Miss Williams."
He served the two women their food and dropped the utensils ready to leave.
"I'll be taking my leave now. I'm outside if you need me." He said but Carly stopped him.
"Where are you going? Aren't you going to have lunch with us?" Carly asked glaring at Raina to say something.
"There's no need-"
"You should also have lunch with us. You prepared this food so you deserve to eat at least." Raina cut him off.
Carly rolled her eyes, Raina won't even say it in a pleasant way. She should better try and convince him instead.
