JERICHO’S WEAKNESS Episode 32
(Miss Perfect👠)

By: Faith Lucky

Valerie gawped at him as he left the car. Really? Where was this place?

She turned to the window and looked at the house again. It was a little small but looked classy. But why was it in such a hidden area?

“Come on, Valerie” Jericho hit the glass and she opened the door and finally stepped out of the car.
But trying to walk, she couldn’t as the pains on her injured leg had become excruciating.

Jericho didn’t notice as he walked ahead of her,but when he felt she was slow, he turned around and was surprised to find her still standing by the car.

“Valerie?” He called, arching a brow.

Her right hand was placed on the leg as she looked at him.

“I…I can’t walk” she shook her head ruefully.

Jericho observed the leg and confirmed she was really In pains.

He sighed and walked towards her, then carried her up in his arms.
Valerie gasped a little as she didn’t expect him to hold her like that.

She wrapped her hands around his shoulders and he led her into the house.

She was amazed at how the door went open on its on when they approached it and almost flinched, but recalling the guy was actually not human, she didn’t let it affect her that much again.

They walked in and Valerie’s eyes beamed when she noticed how beautiful the sitting room was looking. Goodness!
If it wasn’t for her traumatized State, she’d have taken out enough time to admire it. But thinking of it, Jericho actually owns a secret house?

With her in his hands, he took her pass the sitting room, continued walking until they finally got to a bedroom and that was when he placed her down to sit on the bed.

Valerie exhaled deeply, feeling so relieved as her waist hit the bed.

“Thank you” she muttered to Jericho, but he didn’t say a word as he walked towards another door that looked like a bathroom.

She watched him as he left, taking a look at the bloodstains all around him. How can a guy feel so comfortable in another man’s blood??

She scoffed and wished there was a way she could take all the frightful memories from her head. They were hurting her so badly and making her feel sick.

After a while, Jericho returned and carried her up again, taking her into the bathroom.
They got in and he placed her carefully on the floor, in such a way she could sit on the edge of the bathtub. And shocking enough, he tried taking off her top.

“Hold on, what’re you doing?!” Valerie asked in shock, gripping her shirt tight.

“You need a bath, Valerie. And you can’t do that with your shirt on” he almost rolled his eyes and attempted taking it off again.

“N…No. I…I can’t do it myself”. She mumbled and he let her b.

Slowly, she took off the shirt, her bleeding arm hurting her as she did so.

“Can you…turn around please?” She asked timidly because she couldn’t imagine herself being stark næked in front of him.

Jericho sighed and indeed turned to back her and quickly, she took off her remaining clothes and went into the tub, her nækedness being covered by the soapy water.

Then, Jericho turned to look at her and her eyes dimmed.

“I can… I can bathe myself. You don’t need to be here” she told him, but he wasn’t buying it as he sat on the edge of the bathtub and touched her leg.

“Jericho…!”

“Relax, Valerie” his voice was calm and she forced herself to stay till.

He took the soft sponge, dipped it into the water and lifted it to massage her legs.

“How did Derek find you?” He asked during the process and for a moment, Valerie was confused, wondering who Derek was.
But taking a good guess, she figured it was the guy that’d almost raped her, and the guy he killed.

“I um… I’d gone to get some ice cream” she began. “When I returned to the car, he was sitting at the backseat and I really don’t know how he got in there.

“He pointed a knife at me and threatened to kill me if I made a sound. The next thing…”
She paused and tried to remember. “He put a napkin over my nose and I passed out”.

Jericho got to the injured part of her leg and Valerie let out a painful cry as the pains niggled at her.

“Ouch!!”

“Stay still” was all Jericho said as he didn’t want her moving the leg.

He moved the sponge up and down the region and Valerie tightened her lips so she wouldn’t have to cry out again.

After a while, she breathed out in relief when he was done. But he moved the sponge to her arm and she had to cry out again.

“Oh God! It hurts…” She shut her eyes and whimpered.

Jericho ran the sponge round the affected area, cleaning off the bloodstain and when it was clean enough for him, he took it down.

“I’m done here. You should hurry up” he said calmly as he stood up from the tub and left.

Valerie took in several breaths, trying to ease herself.

She lifted her other hand to the injured arm and gasped when she couldn’t find the spot anymore.
Hah!

She quickly turned to look at it and to her greatest surprise, the scar wasn’t there anymore! There was no trace of the cut!

Her eyes widened in shock as she brought her leg out of the water to have a look and it was gone as well! The cut there was gone and she couldn’t feel any pains anymore!

Good heavens! What the hell just happened?!?
******************
In a place for from Earth,

A different planet,

A lady stood in the darkness, beside the King at the balcony.

The atmosphere was dark, with just a few lamp holders producing lights

“But when will he be back?” The lady asked, her voice echoing sadness.

“I don’t know Sylvia, but they should be done with the mission before the end of the week because that’s the deadline they have” The King answered, his gaze fixed into the sky.

“But…do you think he’s fine?” She asked again, unable to help it.

“I don’t know. I can’t tell. Stop worrying yourself, Sylvia. It’s late, you should get some sleep” the King told her and walked away, leaving her alone at the balcony.

For a long time, she stood there, just staring into space. Oh! How terribly she’s missed him!

She sighed pathetically and also left, returning to her room. And when she got there, her little boy was at the door.

“Hey Ezra, what’re you doing here? I thought you were asleep already?” She cooed as she lifted him and carried him up in her arms.

“I’m sorry mother. I just woke up” he replied innocently and placed his head on her shoulders.

Sylvia patted his back soothingly.

“Don’t worry, son” she said. “Your father will be home soon”.
