However, with Esme's current condition, he was unwilling to charge her anything. Jason replied nonchalantly, “Omong is empty! Death is death. What nonsense is it?”
“I only dream ...”
“Dreams usually occur in the opposite direction. If you dream that you died, it means you will soon recover.”
“I hope so.”
Not long after that the doctor arrived, giving Esme a full examination.
After the nurse gave her the medicine, Esme lay down on the bed. He looked at his bag of infusions dripping down, drop by drop. At his side Jason sat quietly.
“What do you think?” Jason asked solemnly.
“Nothing I really think about.”
“Do you want to eat something?”
“There's a bit of bitter taste in my mouth, I don't want to eat anything.”
“No.” Jason slightly snapped at him. “Eat a little. Even you're not tasteful, you won't recover quickly if you don't eat.”
“Then, you want me to eat what?” Esme is lazy to speak.
“Molder millet?”
“En.” In the end, the mouth that feels bland will all disappear.
“I'll go to buy it now. Stay in bed, do not move.” Before Jason left, he warned him.
Just after Jason left, Seth showed up, bringing a food stand. Not seeing Jason, he asked in surprise, “Where is Jason?”
“Go buy me porridge.”
Seth stood by his side, swinging the food container in his hand as he asked, “Esme, guess what delicious food I brought for you today.”
Due to his fever, Esme looks less enthusiastic. He replied in a lazy voice, “Ayam beggar.”
Seth was a little surprised, “How did you know?”
“I smell it.”
“You smell it?” Seth moved the container near his nose and sniffed a few times. “I wrapped it up very well. There's only a very faint smell, but even this can you smell? Do you have a dog nose?”
Seth forgets that, opens the dining place he brought and flaunts in front of Esme, “See and taste, is the beggar chicken I made delicious.”
When the cover was opened, a familiar scent filled the room. Waves of nostalgia struck Esme as she turned around, staring intently at the inside of the container. Color and luster, all asama patios. Almost the same as he did in the past.
There was a complicated feeling inside Esme as she stared at the chicken dish in front of her, making her eyes foggy, “You also know how to make a beggar chicken?” Her voice choked.
“Only small things, what is difficult?”
Observing Esme's gaze, Seth carried a piece of chicken meat to his mouth. That scent aroused Esme's appetite that could no longer hold back. He ate the chicken Seth gave him.
“How?”
“Enak once! It feels almost the same as ... I made.”
“I roasted it in the mud.”
The corners of Esme's lips curved into a weak smile, “It will improve the taste when cooked like that.”
“Do you like it?” Seth asked enthusiastically.
“En.”
“Eat more if you enjoy it.” Seth seemed to be in a very good mood.
“I'm worried can't.”
“Why?”
“I high fever.” Although this beggar chicken evokes his taste, but it is not the same when he is in good condition. He was also afraid of vomiting because of his tongue.
“Really?” Seth's hand stretched out to feel the temperature on Esme's forehead, then pulled it again, “It's very hot, Esme!”
“Alright, no need to force yourself. Eat as much as you need.”
“But you've brought this much.”
Seth doesn't care, “It's okay. I'm sure Jason hasn't eaten either. Once you're better I'll make it again for you.”
“I will make him after he recovers!” Jason may have heard Seth's words, because the man's face was black like the bottom of a pot as he walked in.
“You can't even make noodles, how are you going to make beggar chicken?” Seth couldn't help himself not to bully her.
Jason put down the porridge he carried to the table, glancing at the chicken Seth and Esme's lips. There was a slight stain of oil, shining and teasing.
“You eat chicken meat?”
“Ya.”
“Eating excessively is not good when you have a fever.” Jason turned to look at Seth, took the chicken and handed it back. “Take this and go home!”
“You ate.” Looking at Jason's black face that changed in a split second, even he didn't want to stay any longer.
Seth got up, smiled brilliantly at Esme, “Esme, I went first. I'll visit you again when I'm free.”
Seth's bright smile affected Esme, and she also returned that smile, “Ya. Be careful on the road!”
Jason continued to watch their interaction with the black face. Seeing the way they smiled at each other, he thought, ‘Since when were they so familiar?’
“Jason, I'll leave chicken here for you.” She walked over, patted Jason on the shoulder and said low, “You should smile more in front of your wife.”
What's his business with that?
After Seth leaves, Jason takes Seth's food outside. Esme felt a little stunned. Did he bring them to eat outside?
Moments later, Jason returned empty-handed.
Esme asked, “You finished eating that fast?”
“I always avoid foods that taste bad.” Jason nodded coldly.
“It doesn't feel good?” Esme's eyebrows are slightly wrinkled. She looked at him coldly, “You are so weird.”
Jason's eyes contained a hint of jealousy that Esme did not know when she observed him, “You are very familiar with Seth?”
“No. But there is a feeling of familiarity.”
“What does that mean?”
“It looks like we've known each other for a very long time.”
Hearing Esme's reply, the air around Jason turned cold. “As you've known each other for a long time?” His tone was cynical as he repeated the words esme.
Esme smiles plainly, “Here is more warm and pleasant.”
The sentence only served to darken Jason's already gloomy eyes.
…..
Esme's recovery went well after spending a week in the hospital and being discharged today.
The hospital was close to Seth's ranch, but Jason was unwilling to return to the farm after Esme was discharged. Instead, he brought Esme back to her villa in the city. The only reason was, because within this one week, Seth visited Esme almost every day.
Jason's chest feels stuffy looking at them. Especially when thinking about the words of Esme if with Seth more comfortable and warm. This reminder makes Jason's lungs explode!
He would forbid them to meet in the future!
The universe is like a boomerang. The more we force the way, the opposite will happen.
Five days after they returned to the villa, Jason received an invitation from Seth. It was the birthday of Seth's sister Shopia, and Seth loved her little sister very much. Seth has been preparing for a big, fancy birthday party!
Jason and Esme's names are on the invitation. After reading, Jason casually threw it in the trash!
Seth must have used this party excuse just to get him to see Esme. He had already decided that he would not let Esme and Seth meet again. It won't!
