Jacqueline knocked on the door. Only a split second it swung open. The tall attractive man standing there with his solemn face, his hand was rubbing on his chest. Jacqueline's heart went sobered for him.
"Oh, God. Mike, are you okay? What's wrong? Why didn't you tell earlier? We have to go to the hospital."
She said and rushed to put her hands on his arms. She took him to sit on the couch. He looked unwell in Jacqueline's eyes.
Michael's heart was pounding with excitent when he saw her. Her beautiful face looked worried. So it ant she did care about him. He rembered the past very well. She was a caring person. That was the reason why she decided to marry him.
She cared so much for his sick mother who wanted Jacqueline to be her daughter-in-law. Her only son who was dating nonstop. Won ca in and out of his life so fast but no one was permanent. There was only one woman who was always there by his side, she was his best friend at that ti. And his mother had a good far sight to see that she would be the only woman who he would love dearly.
"I don't need to go to the hospital. I just need to rest and have soone with in case I die. I don't want to die alone, Queen"
He said with a sad face and sad voice. Jacqueline grabbed his arm hard when hearing that.
"Don't talk silly. You are not going to die. How did this happen? Why didn't I know you have heart disease?"
"Because you have never given a chance to tell you. I have been asking to see you and to talk to you all these years, but you did not want to talk."
Michael said. He leaned against the back of the couch and closed his eyes. Jacqueline felt her heart was hurting. If he was in bad condition and he's dying. She would be very very...
Oh, she could not think about this. It was so painful and hurt so much. She touched his face.
"We can talk tonight. I am here, Mike. I am here with you."
She said with her soft voice and her face looked pale. Michael opened his eyes to see her concerned expression. He felt guilty to make her feel bad and worried but it was the only way to get her back. He sighed and put his arm around her waist.
"Do you rember when we were still studying at university?"
He asked softly. Jacqueline sighed. She rembered most of the life they had together. Jacqueline was two years younger than him but they were in the sa year and sa class because Jacqueline was a genius. She was nineteen when they were in the last year of their Bachelor's degrees.
"Yes. Why did you ask? But I think we should go to the hospital to make sure you are okay."
She was not in the mood to talk about the university and did not like his condition right now. She wanted to take him to the hospital and talked later.
"I will feel better in a bit, hopefully. I don't like dicine and hospital if you still rember."
He said. Jacqueline rembered that. Stefan did not like taking dicine, the sa as his dad. But Sam was a good boy. Now he was studying to be a doctor.
"Do you want to lie down in bed. Sitting like this, it isn't comfortable."
She suggested.
"Sounds a good idea."
He agreed imdiately. The tall body got up but he swayed a little Jacqueline hurried to put her arms around his waist to help support him. Michael put his arm around her shoulder then they walked to the bedroom.
Jacqueline helped the tall figure to get in bed. Put the soft blanket over him. His big hand grabbed her arm.
"Stay with , please."
He asked with his soft tone and opened the blanket up. Jacqueline decided to get under the sa blanket. She was worried about his heart. She hoped he was not going to die on her watch.
"Since when have you got the heart disease?"
She asked. Michael was silent for a second. He did not want to lie to her.
"My heart condition had not been the sa and it's bad since you have left the mansion."
That was not a lie. It was true as he ant his heart was not working well as it was broken into pieces since she left him.
Jacqueline felt so bad and sad that she just knew about it. But it could not be too bad as he looked okay and he was still alive. She hoped.
"I have things to talk and to tell you. Please let , Queen. Because if I die without be able to tell you and say what I should have said since years ago, my soul won't be able to rest in peace."
He said and turned to look at her beautiful face.
"You are not going to die tonight. But, if you have things to say, I am listening. Tonight I will listen to everything you have to say, Mike."
She said and he reached to hold her hand under the blanket. He squeezed it gently.
"Are you ready? I am going to start right now."
"Yes, go on. I am ready."
She answered. Jacqueline was thinking at least if she made him talk he would forget about his pain, more or less. Right now he looked a bit better. His warm hand made her heart warm too. The way they lay down on bed reminded her of their lives when they were together. He slled nice as always. His big body was warm and made her feel safe just like before. Jacqueline sighed softly. Ready to hear what the man had to say.
"Do you rember when we were still studying at university?"
He asked the question again.
"Yes, what about it?"
She asked. She had not got a clue why he had to go back that far.
"When you have left I had ti to look back to the past. And my feeling about you had started since then. I want to tell you what I have discovered. I know it's very late and I was very slow to just realize about it after I've lost you. But I hope it won't be too late to tell you."
He said with his sad voice in the end. Jacqueline squeezed his hand tenderly. She rembered how busy he was with work and the growing business. So it was not surprising he did not have ti to think and looked into it until she had left.
"Tell ."
She said and lying there next to his big and warm body quietly, ready to listen to him.
