1249 Words
Mia's eyes widened slightly, she couldn't help but gasp as the attractive body of her cripple boss suddenly appeared to her. She secretly swallowed her saliva, there was something magnetic about the masculine shape of Liam's body that's why she couldn't take her eyes off it right away.
"Uhm, " Liam noticed that Mia was just standing in front of him like a stump. There was astonishment evident in the woman's eyes. The young man secretly smirked, it looks like everything is taking place according to his plan.
"Are you deaf?!" he later asked gruffly in a strong voice.
Mia seemed to wake up just then. She blinked a few times before shaking her head.
"Are you?" Ask Liam again.
"Ah, s-sorry, Sir. Uhm,” the girl seemed unsure of what to do first. She rolled her eyes around the entire room, when her senses got back, she placed the handbag she was holding on top of Liam's bed and then hurriedly faced the young man.
"Where is the bathroom, S-sir?" Mia seemed to ask weakly. She couldn't even look his boss in the eyes because of the shame she felt. He caught her staring at his body, whose woman would be comfortable after that? She just wanted to turn into a mushroom and disappear from that room.
Liam didn't move, instead he pushed his own wheelchair towards a door inside that room. Mia followed immediately. She also opened the door voluntarily and supported Liam from the back.
A large bathtub immediately greeted them, while on the other side happened to be a shower room and a toilet bowl. The place also includes a large wardrobe, closets that contain plenty of towels and other men's toiletries. It was so wide that you could still put one bed inside. Surely it will not be difficult for her to take care of him because she can act well.
"What are you waiting for, Mia?" Liam seemed to ask impatiently.
"You know, I'm starting to feel disappointed. My friend told me that you are one of the best nurses in his hospital. I belive him only to find out that you are not." His language was calm but emphatic while looking deeply at her.
"Are you that ignorant, hmm?" he said in a scolding voice.
She was confused again, their hospital director didn't say that she couldn't be stopped for a moment due to amazement. This man really has a sharp tongue, but that's nothing. She's not allowed to feel hurt or she will lose this precious job!
"Excuse me, Sir. I-I just fell in love with your bathroom. It won't happen again, I promise." She reasoned, then quickly went to the bath-tub, Duke briefed her on Liam's health condition so she knew what to do with simple things like this.
She mixed the right heat and cold of the water coming out of the faucet. While waiting, she took care of what Liam would wear and the towel he would use afterwards. She didn't have a hard time looking for his outfit, she didn't even have to ask because everything he would wear from monday to sunday was already organized in the wardrobe. It has 3 pairs of shirts, shorts, and underwear everyday. She was a little amazed because it turns out that he takes a bath 3x a day!
"Sir, the bathtub is okay, let me help you get over there." She smiled at him.
Liam voluntarily approached the bathtub and felt the water. But he shook his head.
"It's too hot, I don't like it too hot," he said in a cold language.
"Ah, is that so, Sir? Alright, I'll add some cold water again," she said then, moving quickly. She drained the bath-tub a little and then refilled it with cold water.
When she was done, Liam felt the water again, he sighed violently then stared at her in annoyance.
"Are you really a nurse? It's too cold, for Christ's sake! You can't even make the right amount of temperature!” he snorted at her then turned his back.
Mia was almost startled by his scream. She didn't expect him to shout because Liam had been motionless for a while.
Patience, Mia, Patience..
She whispered softly to herself as she approached the bath-tub again. She tries to act delicately and as much as possible, she doesn't want Liam to see that her patience is running out. Also, she didn't know if Liam was just trying her patience or she just couldn't get the water temperature he wanted.
She even saw Liam coming out of the bathroom, so she let the contents of the bath-tub empty first, then refilled it again. She kept a close watch on the temperature until she couldn't feel the heat and cold anymore. Maybe that's the temperature Liam wanted. She went out and called him again.
"Your bath is ready, Sir." He said this with a smile. He was sitting on his back, in front of the glass wall where you can watch the overlooking city. That's when she realized that this room had an overview of the long beach.
Liam wordlessly spun around to face her, pushing his own wheelchair and heading back to the bathroom.
But to her surprise, he didn't go straight where the bath-tub is.
"S-sir,"
"I don't want to soak anymore, I'm out of the mood. I'll just take a shower," he responded coldly while facing the other side of the bathroom.
Mia secretly clenched her hands together.
I don't think he's just trying me. He's pestering me already.
She slowly let out a deep sigh, carefully. She didn't want his boss to hear it. After a while, she posted a happy smile on her lips then approached the man.
"Is that so, Sir? Alright, I'll just prepare your shower again," she said before turning around and about to enter the shower room.
"No, you don't have to. I want to take a cold shower."
Mia's nose and ears almost blew out of annoyance. However she remained calm. She faced the young man still smiling.
"If that's what you wanted, Sir." He lightly emphasized the word 'sir' then circled behind Liam to push him into the shower room.
There, she found a special seat for the young man. Maybe, that's where he sits to bathe and clean his body.
As soon as Liam stood up, she immediately supported him. She caught his whole body using her two arms and moved him to the other seat- under the shower. The young man was heavy but she didn't notice it, the moment their bodies were in contact as well as the natural aroma coming from Liam's body dominated her even more.
She couldn't help but wet her lips as Liam stared at her again. Honestly, she didn't know what to do next. It looks like he can reach the knob switch of the shower, the toiletries organizer has wheels too and just close to where he's sitting. She decided to go out.
"Uhm, I'm going out so you can take a shower, Sir." she smiled and turned her back.
"You are not going anywhere, Miss Salazar."
She suddenly stopped upon hearing his words. She slowly turns to him and raises both of her eyebrows.
"W-what do you mean, S-sir?"She started to feel nervous. Whatever is on her mind right now, she's praying it's not it.
"Remove my underpants and start bathing me, now!" Liam strongly ordered in a cold baritone voice..
