102 Babysitting (1/2)

It took Liling sometime to come to herself. After a few minutes, she slumped on the ground and watched the stairs leading to his room.

'How was she going to face him? What was she going to say was her reason for being in his pool in the first place?

And now he's paralyzed. Wait.. he's paralyzed... that means... that means...

SHE'LL HAVE TO BE HIS BABYSITTER!!!

Her brain bulbs switched on as her eyes widened at the recent realization.

Wait... would she have to feed him? bath him? His hands were okay right?

As these questions flooded her mind, she immediately stood up and rushed upstairs to check for herself.

He should just be paralyzed on the legs... just on the legs... please..

She prayed earnestly, just the mere thought of bathing him sent shivers down her spine.

This was not what she bargained for... at all!!

When she approached the door, she slowed down her steps. Moving quietly, she gently knocked on the door and almost immediately she heard a 'come in' from the inside.

Liling stood outside for a few seconds before lightly pushing open the door. She stepped in, one foot after the other.

Liu Wei was sitting upright on the bed, his laptop beside him.

Before Liling could say anything, he had already started talking.

”Liling, could you help me lift this laptop to my laps please? I can't seem to be able to carry it.. ”

'NO... NO... NO!!!'

Liling stood at the spot gazing at him, she didn't want to believe that he couldn't use his hands properly, so she asked him.

”Your hands, are they paralyzed too? ”

Liu Wei looked up at her and after a few seconds, a frown appeared on his forehead.

”Is that the apology you should be rendering right now?, if I could make use of my hands, would I ask for your help?”

Liling, realising how foolish she had been immediately apologized.
