Chapter 12

Leon

—–

I can still feel the dizziness currently surrounding my head; it feels like being hit by a weight so heavy that it weighs tens of kilos.

I’m aware, I guess. And I can hear the faint conversation around me. But it’s hard for me to open my eyes right now, so I must let myself first let myself sleep when I can’t wake up.

My body is still weak. I don’t know why I feel this way; it’s very rare for me to feel pain like this. I don’t feel any pain, but my whole body feels so weak, and I can’t move it like usual.

I tried to remember what had happened to me before because that must be the reason why I became like this. Can only be silent on the bed. I think I’m in bed right now.

I don’t know exactly how long I closed my eyes, but I realized. I’m sure I’m awake. Because I know I’m awake, I close my eyes and get on the bed. But what confuses me is why I can’t control my body so well. I can’t control it like usual.

.....

Did something happen to me? That’s the question I’ve been asking, but ever since the faint voice was talking around me, it felt like the two of them were talking about me.

I don’t know why I found out two people were around, more precisely in this room. I can also tell this is a room, so what exactly happened to me?

‘Knock!’

I blinked; even though I closed my eyes everywhere, I felt I was moving my eyelids. Because I just felt a gentle flick on my forehead.

But that gentle flick of my forehead made me open my eyes.

“Leon, are you okay?”

The faint voice sounded from a distance and came closer to me, I looked at him, and my vision was still blurry. I couldn’t see very clearly who was approaching me. But I know the voice. Isn’t that David?

“Leon, Are you okay? You know I’m so worried about you!”

She said frantically, approaching me and holding my left hand. And sure enough, it was David. So what happened to me? Why don’t I remember what happened to me?

“I’m fine, just feeling dizzy, and my whole body is still so weak. So what was I doing?” I answered while asking David back, trying to figure out what had happened to me because I don’t remember what made me like this.

When he heard my question, David was silent, then looked to his left. Because when I looked into his eyes, I found David’s father standing on the edge of the bed.

“You slipped and fell when we were in the living room!” David said, stammering to me, then I tried to remember it again, but it failed because I didn’t remember what David said.

Well, I don’t need to pry about the incident because the important thing is that I’m okay. That’s enough.

“Drink first because I think you are too tired!” Said David while helping me to be able to sit on the bed that I currently occupy.

With some difficulty, I tried to get up and sit down, then leaned my back against the wall behind me.

Tired? What am I tired of? I don’t think I’ve done anything that makes me so exhausted. So Am I really tired?

I received a glass of water given by David, which helped me slowly drink the water given by him.

“Ahhh!”

Spontaneously I sighed when I felt the pleasure of taking a sip of the drink. I don’t know why my throat feels so hot, and when I drink the water that David gave me, it feels so relieved that my previously hot throat was like it was burning.

But after that, I immediately covered my lips with my right hand because I unconsciously sighed in front of David And made him give me a strange expression.

Hell No. David must have thought all kinds of things about me and thought I was a pervert.

“I’m sorry, I just...”

“Haha, it’s okay, I understand. Your throat is hot, right? And relieved from drinking this plain water.” Said David cutting off What I was about to say, and of course, it took me by surprise. Because he knows what I’m about to tell him.

Certainly, he is not a mortal as usual; he must be a supernatural being with power. Because I’m sure, he’s like that.

“Are you an alien who came to earth?” I asked him spontaneously, then I widened my eyes, covered my lips, and shook my head.

“Hah?”

“Ah, don’t think about what I’m asking. I don’t know why suddenly my lips like to say a strange sentence!” I said to David, explaining what I had just said earlier.

Because I’m confused about why I suddenly rushed to ask David about it, I should have just thought about it without getting it out of my mouth.

“Relax; I understand. Maybe this is the effect of your tiredness; I suggest you rest at my house. Stay overnight,” David replied, smiling at me.

“Huh? Overnight?” I asked, surprised when I heard the word “stay.”

“Don’t worry; I already told your family that you are safe with us here. Tomorrow I will drive you home alone, So don’t worry!” said Mr. Patrick’s father, David, smiling at me.

“Huh? How did you guys know?” I asked, confused again when David’s father contacted my family first. Even though this is the first time I have come to David’s house, today is also the first day that I got to know David.

Why are they both so fast and able to find out about my parents? What happened? Why am I getting confused like this?

“Don’t worry too much; you better rest first, David, and I will prepare dinner for you!” said Mr. Patrick smiling at me.

I hadn’t had time to answer what he had just said; Mr. Patrick immediately left the room.

And now only me and David are left in this room.

“Make yourself comfortable in this room; this is my room!”

I widened my eyes, looking at where David was when he said this was his room.

“Hah?”

“Yes, this is my room; you will sleep here tonight!” David said, smiling at me.

“Hah?”
