Chapter 1
Ouch.....screaming my lungs out
"Let's pour some water on it please sit still dammit Paige," Levine said
"Not water what the hell Levine..... I think I'm dying seriously call Max now please tell him before he calls me"
"He's not picking up let's go now, anyway isn't childbirth the most painful thing that you've survived"
"Shut up Levine wait to give birth then ask me again, I hope Jerome can handle things here "
He looked at me like I'm crazy.
"Paige the restaurant doesn't have 2 employees can we quickly go"
The drive to the hospital was fast Levine drove like a mad man but considering how my hand looked can't say I blame him my skin is literally falling off.....We just opened our restaurant last week and today of all days I accidentally poured boiling oil on my hand my right hand.... fuck life hates me
I'm the youngest head chef and now I'm screwed because I'm sure I won't be allowed to work what will I do I just came here a week ago..how will I pay my rent and everything? Mr. Rian aka Max the owner of the restaurant won't pay me for sitting at home...
Finally, we are here and I'm sweating the pain is kind of too much, doctors came and looked at my hand I couldn't look at it I had to look away, he asked me how painful it is and Said a nurse will come put an IV on me that gave me the time to ask Levine to go back to the restaurant cause God knows I trust him more.
After a few minutes, Wayne walked in...what no no this can't be Wayne is here... he's my nurse...in case you're wondering who Wayne is he was my high school crush... I used to love him so much but after trying and literally throwing myself at him and being rejected by him I gave up, he could have any girl he wants why on earth would he like a black girl like me.
He finally came to me and started speaking but I didn't hear anything looking at his pink lips, his blonde hair in a cute man bun urgh, grey eyes....he's more mature omg his body and his taller did he really have to wear his tight. uniform... He looks so good I checked his left ring finger Thank God there was nothing but he could still have a girlfriend there goes my fantasy...
He held my hand... And I Dont know but It felt like I was electrocuted I'm being a bit dramatic but I'm sure you get that feeling...
"Do you hear me Paige?" he said
"Paige....earth to Paige" finally I snapped out of my wild thoughts...
"Can you uhm repeat what you just said"
He smiled and I might as well be dead because God this man is killing me.
"I asked how did this happen and how's the pain"
"ohhh my idiotic co-worker Jerome decided it would be smart to fill the fryer with oil and forgot to switch it off, on top of some shelf I accidentally hit the fryer and the oil ended up on my hand"
"I'm sorry, I'm going to put an IV and give you some pain meds so you feel better it's a 3rd-degree burn so it's going to take about 3 weeks to heal"
"Did you just say 3 fucken weeks... What I can't be off work for 3 weeks Wayne I'm the head chef"
"Paige...I'm happy you followed your dreams though, but your health is more important if that thing gets an infection you will need surgery and it's going to get worse, are you willing to take that chance?"
"Of course not I just Dont know if my idiot boss will allow me to get paid how will I afford rent and my ki......"
"Wait you called me Paige, do you...."
"what you think I'd forget you, I had a crush on you but... Nevermind "he said that smiling
"Oh" I couldn't speak he remembered me..wait did he just say he had a crush on me too? If I ran from this hospital now how would I get home, wait why do I want to run away again urgh...
"in case you're wondering, yes I'm a male nurse and I moved here about 6 months ago because I'm doing my practicals here, I love it more now that you are here" he smiled
"Dont get too excited my boss is going to fire me because now ill be useless, I'm the youngest head chef and I worked my ass off but that won't matter anymore"
At this point, all I wanted to do was cry.
I faked a yawn "I need to sleep now thank you so much for everything" he looked at me and laughed..... I guess I wasn't convincing.
"You do realize you can't act right," he said that laughing
" I mean you can't blame a girl for trying right? since I won't be a Chef for a while I might try acting"
"definitely not babe, I'll check in later let me go check on a few patients before Maria kills me" we both laughed and he left ... Did he just say babe I promise I'm not high...
I remembered I didn't call my parents, Karen and Max Shoot ....where the fuck is my phone I got up and took my bag using my left-hand fuck I removed the IV and there's blood all over why is today not my day though.....
