Chapter 198 His What?
- “Naomi,” a voice called and Naomi came to consciousness to see Asher kneeling on the ground with his hands buried deep in the soil. She stared at him, not understanding what had just happened. He had been talking to her, only that now it felt like it was one of her visions but it was not her vision, it was not something that would still happen. She could feel it, even remember what they talked about but now it seems like it was all her imagination? “Naomi,” Asher called again and looked at her, his eyes were glowing a faint blue light and it looked like he was in pain. “Are you okay?” he asked, his voice was close to a whisper and it looked like he was fighting consciousness.
- Before Naomi could answer, he slumped on the floor and that was when she sprang to action immediately, rushing to him and shaking him. He was breathing shallowly and his body was burning up. “Oh my God, Asher, what happened?” she asked, now clearly worried as she tried to lift him up but he was nearly twice as big as she was and very much taller that it was so hard lifting him up. “Please Asher, wake up, I can’t lift you by myself,” she said and then grabbed his hands and started pulling him. The ground was obviously grazing his skin but she didn’t have a better option. Merely dragging him was already draining her, he weighed a ton.
- Finally, she managed to get him on the porch and she quickly unlocked the door with her key. She continued dragging him into the house and merely happened to raise him up to lie on the couch. She fell on the sofa next it, panting and wiping out sweat. After some seconds of catching her breath, she sprang on her feet and rushed into the kitchen. No matter what, she has to get Asher conscious to leave before her father gets back. She grabbed a new dish towel and dampened it with water then rushed back to him, she used it to clean his forehead. She could see the tiny cuts dragging him on the floor had done to his skin and she just hopes he would understand when he wakes up.
