The Babysitter

Part 15

Mon's POV

I opened my eyes as they met the white ceiling. I was still confused so it took me a while to come to my senses and look where I was. As I moved my eyes from the ceiling down I notice the machine standing right next to me; it looked like an infusion pump; Was I in a hospital?

I slowly moved my head down and could see Khum Sam and Yuki, talking. They were practically whispering because I couldn't hear anything. They both were carrying a worried facial expression and Yuki was biting her nails. She only bites her nails when she's nervous!

Flashbacks from what had happened started coming to me - I had passed out after receiving the news. It was only then that I realized that I was laying in Khum Sam's bed. I was still at her home but why was Yuki here? How did she get here?

I tried to sit on the bed and both of them noticed that I was up. They rushed towards me worried but they also looked relieved.
Khum Sam gave me a big and gentle hug, while Yuki looked at me with happy teary eyes.
I'm guessing I gave them a little heart attack with my reaction moments ago!

Yuki; I'm so glad you're okay Mon - she gave me a hug when Sam let go of me - please don't scare us like that again.

Mon; I'm sorry, Yuki! - she hugged me again -

Yuki; it's okay. I'm glad to see you are okay - she held my face with both of her hands - Don't worry about anything okay? I got you, always!

Mon; I know you do, but what exactly happened?

Sam; You fainted Mon and I called my family doctor to check on you - Yuki moved and Khum Sam sat right next to me on the bed - it took you a while to wake up. It seemed that whatever you and Yuki were discussing caused a lot of stress on you!

Mon; So you have no idea about what Yuki told me on the phone? - I looked at my friend and then to Sam  -

Sam; No, I tried to get it out of her but she won't tell me - she sighed- I even told Ricky to go pick her up because she was worried about you but I have yet to find out what...

Yuki; I don't think that's something I should do Sam, I'm sorry! - she looks at her apologetic-

Sam; I understand, no worries Yuki! - Khum Sam then looked at me - Don't feel pressure to tell me anything yet, Mon! I would love to help you with whatever is happening but I also want to be mindful of your space. We can talk about it when you're ready!

Mon; I want to tell you, I do but I'm scared - my eyes started to get watery -

Sam; Why would you be scared Mon?

Mon; because it's my past and you... you - I started crying and Sam scutched over and hugged me tightly. I really needed that hug -

Sam; Don't be scared Mon. Nothing that you ever say will make me want to leave you. Do you understand? - she made me look her in the eyes, and I nodded - Good, now quit crying. You're just recovering.

Yuki; You too are so cute - I looked at my friend who was seating at the edge of the bed - but I need to go now!

Mon; You can't leave now. It's too late!

Yuki; I will get a taxi, it's fine.

Sam; Yuki, it's two in the morning. You won't be able to get a ride now. Just sleep in the guest room!

Yuki; I don't want to bother... - Sam interrupted her -

Sam; Of course not. There is plenty of room here. Please stay!

Mon; We can sleep in my room, together! - Sam turned her head so quickly after hearing what I said -

Sam; What do you mean? - she looked confused-
