Coolest Girl in Town

The moment Paul woke up, he started blabbering again. "We just got out of a dangerous situation together, Narissa. You should feel something for me now. I'd still do it again if I were given the choice. If you promise to date me, I'll train myself once I get out of the hospital. I promise I can protect you. Um, Narissa? Hello? Earth to Narissa? Can you say something?"

Narissa grunted.

"Just a grunt?" Paul was miffed. "I'm a patient. Can't you at least be nicer to me?"

"No." Narissa was worried about Elise. She had no time to chat with Paul. "You should talk less and rest more, Mr. Patient."

"Might as well tell me to kill myself." Paul was a little hurt.
