Chapter 4 The Kiss of Life
1008 Words
The doctor had told him, right after the car accident, that he would have trouble with erections.
But then what was this... Roy pretended nothing had happened but it just felt like it needed release, and fast.
"Hubby, Anny..."
"Go find something to eat." He said impatiently. He turned to his side, and gave a few coughs, trying to hide that effel tower.
Ann jumped to her feet.
She went into the bathroom, sat on a stool there and began to clap: "Anny eat. Anny hungry, Anny eat."
Eat in the bathroom? That was the life she had been living in the mental hospital?
Roy dragged himself up, and grabbed her hand, saying angrily: "Food is downstairs. Not in here."
Ann looked around before protesting: "But it has a stool. And a table. This is the place to eat."
That...sounded about right.
Roy didn't bother arguing with her. He took her by the hand, and led her downstairs.
"Now this is the place to eat. The bathroom is the place where you take a bath. Is that clear?" Roy said gently. He made her sit down, and took a seat next to her.
Ann blinked and started clapping again: "Anny eat Anny eat."
Judy heard some noises and came out of her room to check.
She asked Roy upon seeing them: "Mr Roy, what...what's with her? Why does she look...retarded?"
"Anny is not retarded. Anny is ill. You're a bad woman." Ann defended herself.
"What's going on? When has Eva Reed become like this?" Judy exclaimed.
She sensed something was off about Ann, but being retarded....that was completely something else.
Ann paid no further attention to her.
She grabbed the steak with her hand, and bit a bulk off.
The sauce splashed on her small cheeks. It was a weird and painful sight to watch.
Ann ate a mouthful before replying slowly: "Anny is not Eva."
"What?!"
"Calm down, Judy. You scared her." Roy grabbed a tissue to wipe her mouth.
Judy was shocked by the sight in front of her. Why would Mr Roy be so nice to a mentally challenged person?
"The Reeds...they're way out of line this time! They think you lost your power and they could just offend you all they want...I'll go to Master Lewis, please wait here Mr Roy, I'll ask Master to deal with them." With that, Judy stormed off.
Roy wanted to stop Judy, but before he could do that, Ann grabbed his hand, a painful expression on her face.
"What happened? Are you choked?" Roy asked worried.
Her mouth was full so she couldn't speak. Tears began to flow down her cheeks.
"Shhh. It's okay. Don't be scared." Roy started patting her on the back, hoping it'd help.
Ann mentally smiled to herself. Of course she wasn't afraid or choked in any way.
She just didn't want Roy to stop Judy.
She wanted Judy to go to Mr Lewis, and let Mr Lewis deal with her family.
Ann looked up at the man.
He was really a soft man, wasn't he?
He was forced to marry a lunatic, and yet could still live with it.
Looked like she couldn't count on him...
She had to count on herself!
"Is it better now? Do you need me to..."
Before Roy could finish, Ann burst into a giggle.
Uh-oh. She didn't mean it...
Roy's face darkened. He clenched his fists, the veins on his neck showing.
Ann giggled some more: "Hubby is dirty." Then she resumed eating.
Roy stormed off after saying to her "Be careful. Don't choke yourself."
Ann didn't take any notice of him.
Ann sat back after she was full up. It'd been half an hour since Roy left. Why did he go?
Ann made her way upstairs and announced herself: "Hubby eat. Hubby hungry, hubby eat."
There was no response.
"Hubby hubby, Anny's hubby." She called out loudly.
When she made her way to the bathroom, she saw Roy lying on the floor, naked.
Umm. She didn't mean to peek.
"Hubby, why is hubby sleeping on the floor?" Ann tilted her head before asking loudly.
Still there was no response.
Was he in a coma or something?
Ann fetched a bath towel and threw it on his naked body: "Hubby is cold. Hubby wake up. Wake up."
She shook him violently by the shoulder.
Opps. Looked like he really fainted this time.
That was just soooo weak for a man.
Ann looked around, making sure no one was around, before producing another pill from her pocket and forcing it into his mouth.
This was a life-threatening situation, so Ann didn't hesitate to give him the kiss of life.
Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
Roy's eyes shot open. He felt Ann's soft lips crushed against his, and her sweet breath on his face.
He grabbed the back of her head, and kissed her back.
Jerk! She was trying to save him, and he just wanted a piece of her!
Ann couldn't push him away, because that'd make him suspicious. How would a mentally challenged person tell this was s****l harassment?
She bit his lips hard, forcing him to pull away.
Then she clapped: "Hubby is not as good as Anny. Anny can bite." With this, she bit into his shoulder. This was a lesson for him, so he would know better next time and keep his distance.
Roy held her chin, placing his forehead against hers.
Ann's long lashes batted against her lower lid, tilting her head.
This woman was so beautiful.
He touched her lips with his fingertips, and his breathing was heavy.
What was this man planning to do to her?
"Only hubby can bite your lips. You can only bite hubby's lips. Is that understood?" He asked in a deep and husky voice.
Ann was struck speechless. This jerk of a man!
She looked up at him, giggling: "Ann understand. Anny bite hubby, and hubby bite Anny. Woof woof woof!"
Jeez. That cooled the hot air down.
"Help me up." Roy looked at her, holding out a hand.
