88 Do You Want To Play? (1/2)
Olivia sat beside Laila's hospital bed, watching her sleep.It had been a long night and she couldn't stop replaying the scenes in her head.There was so many people who got hurt, other were killed and she had no idea how the others were doing, her phone was dead and she was too afraid to leave Laila alone for a second.
Laila was taken into surgery the moment they got through the hospital doors.Olivia stayed close by the operating room waiting to hear any news.Eli held her hand until they heard the surgeon came out and told them she was all right.Relief washed over he and Eli kissed her before he left to fetch them a change of clothes promising he wouldn't be too long but it had been hours since then.
Olivia was trying her best to fight off sleep.She should have listened to her dream, why did she think it wasn't a premonition but now she had no choice but to see the reality of it all.Death was waiting for her if she didn't find Vaidehi and she needed to figure the mystery out soon or she will also cause more harm to the people she loved.
Olivia looked at the clock on the hospital wall.It was now 10 in the morning, she needed to charge her phone and wait a little bit longer before Laila woke up.The doctor said Laila needed her rest but she had to hear what had happened to her, Loreley and their father.
Olivia heard a knock on the door and she turned to see who it was.Eli was standing in the doorway, he wash bathed, he changed his clothes and wash wearing a pair of blue jeans and a green t-shirt and holding some white plastic bags.He looked at Olivia's pale face and took a few steps forward.He placed the bags on the ground and moved to touch her face.
He gently caressed the bags under her eyes with his thumb.”I'm so sorry I took so long my love, they've put up barricades all over the city.... They are trying to find the men who started the massacre.” he said softly.He gently placed a kiss of her lips, Olivia felt electricity run from her lips and down her body.”You need some sleep.” he murmured against her parted lips.
”I can't sleep.” she whispered as she kissed him back.Eli sighed, he knew she was lying.Olivia dropped her gaze to the bags on the floor, she could smell a sweet scent coming up.Her stomach growled and her mouth started to salivate.Eli gave a small laugh and grabbed one of the white plastic bags off the floor.
”First change then you can eat, don't give me that face I will watch over your sister.You can use the bathroom to change if you feel too shy.” Eli said teasingly.Olivia pouted and looked at the private bathroom, there was a shower in there and she knew she needed a good wash but she would have to be mindful of her injuries.She sighed as she took the other white plastic bag from the ground and dragged herself into the bathroom.
She gave one last look at Eli before she closed the door.She slipped off her dress and grabbed a small face towel off the sink.She turned on the water and moistened the towel.She added a little bit of soap and started to gently scrub her skin.
She moved the small white towel over every inch of her body except for her feet.They had dried blood all over them and she decided to try to rinse them off in the bathtub under some warm running water.The water could only do so much and Olivia sat on the brim of the tub and brought the towel to her feet.
The small white towel soon started turning pink as she scrubbed away the crusted blood.She became numb, she didn't want to remember the bodies that laid on the floor, she didn't want to remember the moment her grandfather died and she was more terrified about what happened with her father and sister.She let the water run for a few more minutes as she silently cried in the bathroom alone.
Eli was getting a little worried as Olivia was in the bathroom for quite a bit off time.He looked at Laila and frowned, he had hoped that the smell of food would entice her to stir but he had no luck.He had already plugged in Olivia'sphone and made himself comfortable in one of the chairs.He crossed his ankle over his knee and waited.Soon the bathroom door handle clicked and the door slowly opened.
Olivia stepped out, she braided her hair to the side and wore a navy blue track suit.Eli got up from his chair and handed her a danish and a carton of milk.”Please eat something.” he urged her as she gingerly took the meal.She looked at Laila ”She probably won't wake up for another hour.” she said sorrowfully.Eli wrapped his arms around her and gently kissed her forehead.”Then I want you to rest after you eat.”
Eli watched Olivia sleeping on the window sill bed, he felt relief that she was at least safe but there was a problem, she didn't know where her family was or even if they were alive.With a heavy sigh he got up from his chair and walked over to Laila.He narrowed his gaze on the sleeping girl's face and knew something was wrong.Were the three of them together during the shooting and why would they only leave Laila behind.
Eli pulled out his phone and checked the time.It was already one in the afternoon, he didn't want to wake Olivia up but at the same time Laila should have already woke up from the anesthesia.He pocketed his phone and decided to try and find a doctor or nurse that could give him some answersbefore Olivia woke up.
He walked up to Olivia and tucked her under the blanket, he gave her a small kiss on the top of her head before he quietly left the room.
