Chapter 261
Rachel
I woke up with Karen faffing around me, with the blood pressure machine and the thermometer why she wanted to take my fever only she knows. “Morning Rachel.” “Morning Karen.” “How did you sleep?” she asked me. “I slept well thank you but shouldn’t I ask you that question?” “You slept good Rachel your blood pressure was high only once, that is good.” “Then when can all these things get off of me?” “I just spoke to Dr Coolen she will come over during the day but I can take of the heart monitor machine so long.’’ “Oh thank God and can I go for a shower?” “Yes, off course. Let me just get everything of you, then I’m going to leave. Dr said you should stay in bed as much as possible today and not get your blood pressure up again. I’m going to show Mr. Marchetti how to take your blood pressure for during the day.” “Speaking of. Where is my husband?” “He said he’s going to make a few calls before you wake up, he wants to be all yours today.” “Is someone talking about me? Morning sweetheart.” “Yes, I was just asking Karen where you were. Morning Massimo. I hoped I didn’t keep you out of sleep with all these machines.” “I will lose all the sleep in the world for you Rachel.” “Ah thank you Massimo. You really sweet.” “I’m trying” he winked at me. Karen cleared her throat. We totally forgot she was in the room with us. Mr. Marchetti I’m going to leave now, Dr will come around today her instruction is that Rachel should be on bed rest today and you should check her blood pressure every hour. The machine will keep the memory so you don’t have to right it down. Let me show you how.” Karen took the arm thingy of my arm and showed Massimo how to put it on then she took it of and let him put it on. “Then you press that button.” Massimo pressed the button and the machine came to live. “See easy.” “Thank you, Karen.” Massimo and I said at the same time. “Then I’m going to leave you.” “Marco will see you out.” Massimo said. When she was gone Massimo asked me “And know Bella?” “And know I need a shower and coffee and something to eat in that order.” “Yes Mam.” Massimo saluted me I just laughed at him. “Can I shower with you?” He winked at me. “Anytime my Italian Stallion.” “Jeez someone is feisty today. But I think I rather should not.” “But why?” I nagged. “Well, we don’t want your blood pressure to spike again before the doctor come.” “So, what does that mean Massimo? We’ll do something when she’s gone?” “It all depends on what she says and what I can do with this one arm.” “Fine, I guess. And you still need to tell me what happened last night.” “You still can’t remember Bella?” “Not a thing.” “We’ll find out with the doctor if it is a good thing if I tell you.” “Off course it’s a good thing.” I said a bit irritated. “Bella please let’s stay calm if the doctor says I can tell you then I promise you I will tell you everything. Please Bella.” “Just because you ask so nicely.” “Thank you, sweetheart, now let’s get you in the shower.” Massimo walked with me to the bathroom it was like he was afraid I’ll fall over or something. I really wondered what happened last night. I finished in the shower got dressed in my cozy sweatpants and hoodie and walked with Massimo to the kitchen. He lifted me and sat me down on the kitchen counter. I had a bit of deja vu like I sat there a few hours ago. Well, if he won’t tell me what happened my memory will come back, I just need to give it time. Massimo gave me a Hazelnut Ice latte and after the first sip I calmed again. “What do you want to eat?” “Pancakes please and beacon” I kept quiet for a while “and eggs please.” “My wife is hungry this morning.” “It would appear so.” “Do you want to sit there while I’m busy or do you want to go lie down on the coach?” “I’m good here.” “Good I don’t want to let you out of my sight today.” “Does it mean you won’t let me go to the toilet alone as well. You know a girl needs her privacy.” “I’ll think about that one, that’s the best I can do.” “Jeez thank you love.” “Just telling the truth. I have more good news.” “Oh, goody I like good news.” “The people are moving out next week we can move in the week after.” I jumped of the counter and jumped into his arms kissing him all over his face. “You serious Massimo?” “Yes, Bella I’m serious.” “I can’t wait, I need to start looking for beds and furniture.” He picked me up again and put me back on the kitchen counter. “You stay right there no more jumping around.” “I’m just excited that’s all.” “That makes me very happy sweetheart but the doctor said bedrest that kitchen counter doesn’t look like a bed Bella.” “Fine fine I’ll sit still.” “I spoke to the architect his going to the house I was thinking we can convert the garage and gym into a place for the men so long. The architect and builder will go to the house today to decide what to do.” “I really don’t mind if they are in the house Massimo.” “I know Bella but I’m sure they would feel like they are invading our space.” “But it’s because of me we’re moving earlier, so they shouldn’t think like that.” “I know I’m just saying. If we can have the place ready before we move in then why not?” “Thank you, Massimo thank, you so much it will be so good to be out in nature.” “Whatever makes you happy Bella.” “Do you have an idea of what you want in the house then I can phone the interior designer and she can go with the architect?” “I like the way the house was decorated; I would make a few adjustments but not a lot it looks like everything in that house was made for the house.” “You want me to phone her and asked her to go with the architect then she can get a feel for the house and what already is in the house and you can tell her what do too differently and then off course she know what I like so that is already a good thing.” “That would be nice then I’m not so overwhelmed with such a big house.” “Consider it done, just like the breakfast. Let’s go eat.”
