9| IT'S JUST A MISSION

"Sometimes accepting devalue is just a stepping stone in creating major valuability"

VOSHÉLLISA'S P.O.V

The next day I woke up extremely early and prepared myself mentally im front of the mirror in order to face the one person I didn't think I would have to.

"It's just a mission, it's just a mission, it's just a mission" I kept telling myself.

Only thing is, this was a little more personal for me. Based on the information signal sent to me through my crest, I am to not only take care and protect the former Papa but I was also expected to keep him motivated through his condition.

THAT WAS GOING TO BE HELL FOR ME.

Talk about mission impossible.

Laugh. The. Hell. Out.

LOL.

This had to be some major joke or sabotage because I can't even motivate my own self through my own condition.

I mean the best advice I could even give him is to give up and die. Harsh as it sounds it's easier than fighting the pain everyday. I mean, dying isn't all that bad.

Once you die then that's it. No need to worry, no need to depress no need to feel pain. Death is always exaggerated as such a bad thing when it is actually the most thoughtful thing that could happen to a person. Death rids us of our sufferings, it elimates our pains.

Not that pain is such a bad thing but for those who aren't appreciative of it, death is an awesome escape.

The only person that are truly affected by death, are the persons who are/were close to the deceased.

The selfish ones who wished the deceased would just 'tough it out' and try to survive their pain and suffering.

...............And also the jealous ones who wish it was them instead so that they could find peace while the deceased continue to endure their plight.

So HOOOOOWWWWW will I now pretend that life is better than death and go on to constantly offer motivation when my beliefs on the matter are so strong and deep?

Guess I will also need to be an actress. Great. An additional task that I was neither trained nor compensated for.

"Good morning Boss, I called to ask if my request had been cleared. Can I make calls to other family members?" I inquired as I was very interested having someone else to talk to other from Lorenzio.

"Yes Voshéllisa, I had it cleared last night. But it is only to other members of the family. No one outside the family is on the server." He explained to me.

"That's not a problem. Remember that I no longer know anyone outside the family?" I reminded him him with a hint of bitterness in my voice.

"Noted. Have a good day, I have bossly matters to attend to. So bye" He said before he hung up sparing no time for my response. I could only guess that he had become quite scared how unpredictably predictable I was. Like, he knew I had some crude comment to make but he wasn't sure exactly where I could attack.

I thought really hard into the matter and decided that I was indeed very dangerous because either dead or alive, I can make him very miserable.

................And I absolutely loved that conclusion.

*20 Minutes later*

I put on my uniform and went to the kitchen to give my greetings to the other staff members I hadn't seen since morning as well as collect Senior Lorenzio's breakfast.

Since I was his personal caretaker now, I had prepared a new and healthy breakfast menu for the kitchen staff to stick to for him.

His breakfast this morning consisted of oats porridge, diced bananas and strawberries organised in a bowl as fruit salad, two boiled eggs and a cup of black coffee.

I organised the prepared meal on a colorful serving tray and headed towards my patient's room.

When I reached the entrance of his room, I braced the tray on my side with one hand and used the other to knock on the door, indicating to Lorenzio senior that I was entering.

"Come in" I heard him say and I opened the door and entered.

"Good morning sir. I trust your morning is going well. I have your breakfast here."

I said in one breath.

"Morning. And you are??" I definately did not like his attitude. Is that how you speak with persons who look after you?

I think not.

In our time together you will learn humility and you will have respect or else.......

Because at this present time, your life is in my hands.

"I am the person in charge of your overall care. I think you should learn to appreciate this fact seeing I went the extra mile to sort out a new and improved health diet for you so that you can start on a road to recovery. I would prefer some gratitude coming from your side of the conversation at all times because as they say encouragement sweetens labour. And just in case you don't know, my job is only to do the basic care, so me trying to save your life is not on the list of duties. SIR." I stated matter of factly.

As long as I am taking care of him, which was the last thing I desired, he will not make my job any harder than it has to be so I was determined to lay down the ground rules from the get go.

Later at lunch time his mood was still a bit grumpy so I just came to the conclusion that maybe he was having a bad day. Then again, everyday could be a bad day for him considering his present condition. I mean he was still able to move around on his own and clean himself and talk which was alot to be grateful for. However, the inner workings of his body was malfunctioning causing alot of pain and discomfort.

Even though I loved feeling pain, I was not a sadist so I felt sympathic towards his condition. It must be quite miserable to be living like that.

When I sat to mysef in the afternoon, I checked my phone which now had access to the internet and I began researching natural ways to assist Lorenzio senior to become healthy again.

After collecting all the information I could, I quickly searched through for Teo's number and sent him a quick text message.

I missed Teo so much, the feeling was new. I have never missed someone as much as how I missed Teo. After spending all the months training with him it just felt natural that I would like him. Teo was so gentle with me even though it was not required and he taught me everything that I was curious about. He made me the best at what I fo now and I can't even begin to thank him.

Twenty minutes later I got a call from Teo's number.

"Hello beautiful, I know it's only been two days but I miss you dearly"

"Awww Teo, I miss you too. I can't believe you let me leave without so much of a hug or anything"

"My apologies sweetheart, I was caught up with other things. So how are you? Did you settle ok?"

"Thats fine. I am doing ok but I would have settled better with you by my side" I know I was flirting but I really liked Teo.

"Bella, are you trying to flirt with me?" Teo laughed at me. I pouted although he couldn't see.

"Teo I like you alot. Please don't mock me." I said without thinking.

"Voshé, you know I-" I quickly hung up before he could finish his sentence.

His breath was uneven and heavy and I didn't know exactly what he was going to say but I was scared.

Fearful for rejection.

I decided that I was going to give it a week to blow off before I spoke to Teo again. If he didn't bring it up then I wouldn't either and I would just continue as though nothing happened.

I know I was a coward but what was I to do?

Teo was awesome and older than me, I didn't want to come off as pushy, I wanted him to want me on his own.......

I wanted him......

But I also wanted him to want me just as much as I wanted him......
