Clair POV
It has been 2 weeks since daddy passed away and I have never felt alone. But I am lucky to have my Brit with me. She is my other half. My nutritionist Lea is someone I considered family too, she is the daughter of my oldest maid, aunt Andrea. They have been with me since I was small, daddy supported Lea through school and provided a scholarship for her to pursue her studies and when she chose to become a nutritionist daddy hired her as my personal nutritionist. She is strict with me but has a heart of gold. Daddy always forbid me from eating sweets or oily food so I craved a lot eating these forbidden food. Lea is 5 years older than me so I consider her as my sister than just a friend.
"Hi young lady, what are you thinking? Its time for your evening snack and you may take you vitamins afterward" said Lea while placing my food on the table beside my bed.
"Well my beloved Lily, you can just prepare the food downstairs, I can come over plus I am sick of sleeping on my bed. It has been two weeks Lily" I said pouting acting childishly to her.
"Dont do that face to me, I am not my mother, how many times have you fainted this week. Its more than I can count with my fingers. And please heeds to the doctor advise and eat more. My mother has been worrying seeing your condition. Your face has lose its complexion.You know we love you right? Take care of yourself okay?" She said rubbing my head tenderly
I just nod and smile at her words.
Yes Im not eating well, my fair skin has became as pale as paper. I felt so drained of energy with just walking to the toilet. Yesterday when I took my bath I fainted in the tub, I am lucky I was not drowned since aunt Andrea found me on time. She actually came to help me blow my hair as she used to do when I am down or sad. She has a bad feeling because she had to wait for almost an hour but I am still inside the toilet. I am a simple person my bath time has never exceed 15mins. So a 1hour bath definitely triggering for her to call my bodyguard to break the door. They found almost drowned and unconcious in the bath tub. They have to call our family doctor since my hands and lips almost turned blue.
I was diagnosed with a mild depression and not eating or sleeping well do not sit well for a person with a heart condition like me. Doctor advised to have a good rest, watch my diet and if possible take a holiday in a completely new environment. But where can I go? I am almost never went out of my house. I wish to travel but daddy wont allow me. To travel alone scares me I dont even know basic things in survival. Perhaps I should consult with Brit when she come home. I was thinking by myself while forcing the cut fruita down my throats.
Brit has gone to Country A to visit Ryan as Brit & Johnson Group was trying to expand there as well. She is working dilligently there and I begged Lily not to tell her about my fainting episode. Else she will definitely rush to take the earliest flight just to nag at me.
