She was undergoing surgery, which had been in operation for the past ten hours.

“It’s fine.” It wasn’t his fault. I should have listened to him before ending the call.

“Why didn’t you ever mention that your sister was sick? | had no idea,” I stared.

We did not just have an employee and employer relationship.

“Well, I didn’t want to bother you with my problems,” he said.

“You should,” I said, and he turned sharply at me. As though he didn’t expect to say that, “I want to know what’s going on with you.”

“Is Mr. Woods extending care to me?” He asked and I glared at him.

“You don’t have to stay or come. I’m already sorry that I have to take today off without prior informing you.” He did

“I’m already here, might as well see her,” I said, I continued, “you really are sorry, then treat me to dinner.”

He didn’t need to, maybe it was me who craved a friend’s presence. Since Luke and David left the country three years ago, I rarely had time to have fun

It was actually because I didn’t have any friends other than them.

Daniel placed his hand on the glass, his eyes pinned ahead.

I placed one hand on his shoulder and gave it a light squeeze. “She’ll be fine,” I said.

The surgery was completed in thirty minutes.

Cynthia was moved to a VIP room

I stood close to Daniel, who held her hand. She was still unconscious.

When Heft, I made a mental note to take a personal interest in those who were close to me.

As I walked down the hallway, my phone in my pocket beeped.

A message from Julia.

1. a. She sent a photo of the drugs she had got. Another beep and another photo followed.

A photo of herself iclenched my blazer that I held. Julia is beautiful with a unique smile, but suddenly wished it was a picture of Lydia

Lydia is more beautiful. Her dimple smile made my day. Julia’s photo reminded me of those photos that Lydia sent. She would always send one when was having a bad or long day.

My lips involuntarily pulled upwards, a smile gracing my face.

“Lydia”

We both spoke at the same time, “What are you doing here?” She asked, “I’m sorry”

I had not expected to see her here.

The screen of my phone was covered with cheese.

“Are you alright!” She asked the concern in her voice suddenly shallow.

I wasn’t fine, but it wasn’t that bad, but I want to allow this chance to spend some time with Lydia.

I thought of something quickly and clutched my chest. “No, I’m not; why is this so bad? I think I need to be hospitalized,” said and saw how her eyes brim with worry.

“Sit down.” Lydia said and walked to the side, Till be right back.” She turned back and placed the now empty flask in the empty space next to

She returned back shortly with a nurse.

My eyes widened when I saw the lady. Maybe this was a bad idea, but it was already too late.

They guided me to a room.

“Does it hurt?” The nurse asked. I was seated in the bed. I nodded, looking at Lydia, who was by her side; her eyes were on my chest

“It burns.”

“Alright, I’ll get it treated immediately.” I began to shake my head, “can you stay with him for a moment? I’ll go get the necessary things,” the nurse said.

Lydia looked between us.

“I don’t think so. I guess I’ll come with you,” She said.

“I’m sorry once again. But since the nurse is here, I’ll leave it to her. If you want any compensation, you can speak to my assu

Maybe she would have cared there.

After a while, the nurse walked back into the room with a tray in her hand. Lydia wasn’t with her “whend in the letytti.

I wondered why she was here and if the person had anything to do with the man I caw her with the other day.

That was a rebet.

But then, I didn’t want to be treated, at least not by her

“The bum is not that serious. I can do it myself.” I said,

At that moment, the door suddenly pushed open, and Lydia stepped in.

“You came back. I thought you…”

“I caused this; just see it to the end. The last thing I want is to be indebted to you.” She said, but her reason doesn’t matter. What mattered was that she was back.
