Chapter 17: The Breakfast

433 Words
Elara tried to get up from the bed again, but getting up had become extremely difficult for her. Because of the high fever, her whole body felt broken and sore, as if she had no energy left at all. Her legs were trembling. Seeing her struggle like this, Kael's face became worried. "You rest here comfortably," Kael said in a firm but caring voice, "I'll bring breakfast for you right now." Elara looked at him, her eyes still weak from the fever, and said slowly and with so much love hidden behind her cold words, "There's no need for this, Kael. I will handle everything myself." Saying this, she tried to get up again to prove that she was fine. But suddenly, her head spun, everything went black for a second, and she was about to fall to the ground. Immediately, Kael rushed forward. He held her, supported her by her shoulders, and made her sit back on the bed gently. Then, showing a little anger, but only for her own well-being and care, he said, "I don't think you heard what I said. Rest right here. Don't move. And yes, I had already prepared the breakfast before you even woke up. I will serve it now. You just sit here comfortably. And after breakfast, I have kept the medicine here too, you have to take it on time." After saying that, Kael walked towards the kitchen with big, hurried steps. Elara could hear the sound of plates in the kitchen. A few minutes later, Kael brought all the breakfast, placing it on the small table beside her bed. For breakfast, he had made a cheese omelette, toasted brown bread, hot chicken soup, and a small plate of chowmein. The smell of fresh food filled the whole room. Elara just kept looking at him, completely lost and surprised. She couldn't believe her eyes. And she just whispered, "Kael, did you make all of this yourself?" Kael just nodded and said softly, "Yes. I made it while you were sleeping." He placed the soup bowl in her hands, "Have this breakfast first, then take the medicine. Rest at home today, don't go to college. It will be better for you." Elara held the warm bowl in her hands. No one had ever made breakfast for her like this. And then, without saying anything else, without waiting for a thank you, Kael quietly left from there, closing the door gently behind him, while Elara just kept looking at the door where he had just left, with tears in her eyes and soup in her hands.
