Besotted

Chapter 35

My eyes felt light and it fluttered open, only to stare at a white ceiling and sounds of people chatting.

"Sang?" I heard my name being called and looked to my side to find Caleb looking down at me with worry in his face.

"Sang are you alright now?" he asked and held my hand as I nodded. He took my hand to his mouth and kissed it softly. I saw his eyes were red as if he was crying.

"What happened? Where am I?" I found myself asking with a croaked voice and he brought a glass of water to my mouth as he held my head and made me drink some from the glass. The chill water instantly, replenishing my dry throat.

"You are in the hospital. I brought you here after you collapsed near the door. Sang, you were poisoned. What did you do?" he asked and that instantly got my attention as I sat up not bothering about the IV drips.

"What?" I managed to say and looked around. Sure enough, I was in a hospital room and I looked at my clothes which were turned to a hospital gown.

"You were out for a day. Thankfully, the poison couldn't spread in your body because you brought to the hospital just when it started to affect you. How can this happen to you? What did you do?" he asked with worry-filled eyes and I sat there gobsmacked.

Out for a day?

Poisoned?

What did you do?

"What do you mean by what did you do?" I asked and felt my head throbbing. "Do you think that I poisoned myself knowingly?" I challenged and he just stared at me worriedly.

"No! I did not," I answered my own question when I saw his face. I made sure to enunciate each word as I told him that. "Do you think I am suicidal?" I snapped and he shook his head."No, I don't mean that. I thought perhaps you were angry and upset on me and I have stressed you to such limits that yo-"

"Nonsense! Don't talk nonsense with me. No matter what I am never going to end my own life," I shrieked and the door opened as I saw the cops entering the room.
