Chapter 43: Chapter 43

She was sitting on top of the bed, and Jesse walked slowly to her.

Who is he? She asked as she stared at Jesse, surprisingly.

Oh, he is the good Samaritan that brought you here, he said he saw you lying helplessly on the ground when he was coming back from the military base, a year back, at first we all thought you were dead but he insisted that we should check on you, so we had to. She looks at Dr. Kang blankly.

You don't have to worry yourself, my name is Jesse, and I am a soldier, so what is your name and your family, we could contact them, I am sure, they must be very worried about you and how did you end up in that place, were you attack and if yes, did you see their faces or maybe, you know them.

She is lost, Dr. Kang notice that she had no answer to any of the question, she looks lost which means, she doesn't remember anything.

Jesse, can I talk to you outside. Jesse turned his gaze from her and look at the doctor then back at her before standing up as the doctor instructed.

Young lady, you should rest now. Dr. Kang said to her before, going out with Jesse.

What is going on? Don't tell me, she didn't remember anything. The impatient Jesse whinnied.

Will you stop, at least she is alive that is the most important thing and she isn't suffering from any form of disability, so she is not going to be a bother, all we need to do is help her remember her past. Jesse laughed dryly.

Kang, have you gone mad, I am not her father or brother or fiance. I know nothing about her past, and while thou heck is her family not looking for her?

You can't just conclude that, just maybe, they did and are still looking for her, just maybe the family didn't employ the service of the military but the cops. Jesse sighed deeply.

So what am I supposed to do?

Take her home?

Stop joking around, I didn't tell you, I am looking for a wife, I still want to enjoy my unmarried state, and I can't possibly bring her to the military base.

I don't know but I think, letting her live outside the hospital will do the magic, she could come across things that she had seen or heard about before.

I will think about that, for now, I have to leave, my attention is needed at the headquarters.

Go on soldier!!! Dr. Kang mouthed as Jesse hurry out.

****

Jesse is already back at base, and their mission is still been plotted out on how to attack when all soldiers are done with their own opinion, the meeting finally came to a halt, and all of a sudden Bernard's face brightened, he was watching someone through the window, and he kind of love the sight that he is seeing, which caused the pleasantness he is experiencing.

May was a force to ogle at what is taking his attention.

Oh Gen. Bernard, you seen lost in her? May teased him, he turned and look at May.

Yes, she is beautiful and a sight to be held.

So you are interested in her? Another soldier asked.

Sure, but I will wait till the military training passed, in the next four to five months, she should be out of here, I don't want my wife to...

Beck choke on his drink and spat out the drink.

Are you alright? Jesse asked, he nodded then take to his feet.

My dad and I will be visiting the family soon, once we finalize the arrangements, I will let her know about my thoughts, about her becoming a soldier.

Beck pulled the door and walked out, he clenched his fist, and his jaw tighten as he move out, he wanted to go scold her for dancing again but it will be suspicious, so he head to his quarter, he is tired of hearing everyone talking about those cadets, to be specific about Alexia.

Alexia wasn't feeling good, she misses home and she needs to talk to someone so she crawl into the boy's quarter to wake Gerald.

Alexia!!! He mouthed, and she gesture for him to come out. He moves slowly as he makes his way out of the room and hurries to her.

Come on, I can't sleep, let's go, and I saw something very catchy, a fireball home.

Really?

Yes, come on and pardon me, I will be going on a weekend because of my health.

You shouldn't be happy about that, your frequent going home will make your point reduce and you might not be able to pass the final test.

Really?

Yes, they will show you the gate and say a very big goodbye to you and I will be at the other side, leaving your handsome for other girls to feast on.

Stop being mean. She hit him slightly.

Ouch! That hurt.

Sorry, but you were talking nonsense, you should be having a fast for me, so I could get him and make him confess.

Confess what darling? His air fanned her ear, causing her to giggle as she pushed Gerald from her side.

You are very naughty. She said jumping on him while Gerald laughed his heart, they didn't take notice that someone had been staring at them with his hand right in his pockets and his face as cold as an ice, since Alexia arrived at the camp, she hasn't seen him smile at her nor to anyone.

Soldiers!!! Beck shouted when the touching is getting much for him to bear.

Alexia instantly run behind Gerald, and he froze in front of Beck.

This is not a place for lovers, nor a playground, you must avoid any physical contact even if you are from the same womb.

Beck is a complicated man, one minute he called them lovers, and the next kids and also siblings, he used three different words to address them but the main thing he wanted to use is lovers, they were acting like lovers, and they were too touchy.

You should avoid wandering about at this time of the day, to avoid scandal and you should know scandal proof is a punishable offense here at the camp. Do you understand? General Beck clamor

Yes, General!!! Replied Gerald

You!!! Beck shouted pointing to Alexia that is hiding behind Gerald.

Yes!!! Replied Alexia as she move slowly from behind Gerald.

Go back to your unit!!! Alexia was ready to fly.

Not you, him!!! He point at Gerald, nodded then wink at Alexia, she blushed badly, and as she watch Gerald run back to his unit, he turned and look at Alexia.

You should go to yours now, as well.

Okay, handsome!!! Sorry... I am sorry. She apologized but Beck wasn't paying attention to her words his eyes were fixed on her tummy, she lower her eyes only to realize that her tummy had been crying for attention but she had ignored it.

Here, you should take this. Beck stretches the snacks for her, she looks at him. Go on and have it, you should pay attention to your tummy.

He turned to leave but Alexia pulled his hand and dragged his neck and press her lips to his.
