One last time

Hospital.

When Silvia arrived at the hospital for her extra shift, Janet had already arrived.

" Hey where is Ron?" Silvia asked.

" He just left." Janet said in a very low voice.

Silvia frowned and asked," Jan what's wrong?"

Janet shook her head and kept on doing her work.

Grabbing her shoulders, Silvia shook her and said," Jan tell me what happened to- oh my God how did this happen?"

Removing her hand from her shoulder, Janet said," I am fine."

Lifting her chin up, Silvia gently touched her swollen cheek and asked," Did he do this? Seriously why don't you do something about it?"

Pausing for a while, Silvia said," Go and sit down. Let me apply something on this."

Janet nodded her head and sat on the edge of a nearby bed.

Taking out an ointment from one of the drawer, Silvia started applying it on Janet's place saying," Jan you can't let him harm you like this. I don't understand why are still scared of him."

" You know how helpless I feel in front of him. He is too dangerous." Janet said.

" What did he want this time?" Silvia asked.

" He took all the cash that I had." Janet said.

Silvia frowned and said," This is ridiculous. That man is insane. Totally insane. How did he enter your apartment?"

" He started banging the door and then the neighbours started complaining. So I had to open it." Janet said.

" That's it you are moving into my place from today. You can't let that maniac to hurt you like this all the time. It's been years since you broke up with him. Why does he still affect you so much?" Silvia asked.

Covering her face with both her hands, Janet sobbed and said," It's not like I have feeling for him but I am scared. He is very dangerous Sil. You have no idea what kind of man he is."

Patting her back, Silvia asked," Why don't you stay at my place until you find a new place for yourself?"

Janet nodded her head and said," Thank you so much Sil. What would I do without you?"

Silvia smiled and said," What are friends for? But too bad you can't meet Rocky now."

Janet chuckled and said," Yeah he will run away if I go in front of him like this."

Patting her back, Silvia said," Take rest for sometime. I'll go and complete that report."

....

When Silvia came out of the emergency room, she saw a woman miserable crying in front of the billing counter.

" Please I'll arrange the cash as soon as possible. Can you please take this and start the surgery?" The woman said.

" I am sorry ma'am but you have to atleast pay fifty percent now." The man said.

Walking towards the counter, Silvia asked," Whats wrong?"

The man breathed a sigh of relief and said," Ah nurse Silvia thank God you are here. Can you please take care of this lady?"

" Why What happened?" Silvia asked.

" Well her son is admitted in the hospital and needs an urgent surgery. She has to pay atleast 50% first but the lady neither has cash nor health insurance." The man said.

Silvia sighed and asked," How much?"

Looking at the bills, the man said," 3000 pounds excluding medicines."

Silvia thought for a while and said," I have some cash in my purse but I forgot to get my card. Why don't you start surgery and I'll pay the bill tomorrow?"

The man shook his head and said," I am sorry nurse Silvia but-"

Silvia frowned and said," I am an employee of this hospital. You can't even trust me?"

" Sorry but we have follow rules." The man said.

" An innocent person will lose his life because of your damn rules." Silvia said.

" Here charger everything on this." A man said taking out his card from his wallet.

Turning towards the man, Silvia widened her eyes in shock when she saw who it was.

Taking the card of the man's hand, the billing man asked," How much should I charge?"

" Everything." The man said.

Silvia sighed and said," Kevin you don't have to-"

" It's fine." Kevin said.

Turning towards Kevin, the woman gave him the cash that she had and said," Thank you so much young man. I'll return the money back to you."

Giving the cash back to the lady, Kevin smiled and said," It's fine you can keep this. You'll need it later."

Taking the card back, Kevin said," If you need anything else, you can tell me." Giving her a card, Kevin said," This is my number."

Taking the card from his hand, the woman said," Thankyou so much."

Kevin smiled and said," Pleasure is all mine."

After thanking Kevin and Silvia several times, the woman left.

" I'll pay you back tomorrow." Silvia said.

Kevin raised his eyebrows and asked," And why would you do that?"

" Initially I wanted to help her so-"

Kevin shook his head and said," It's fine. That money was rotting inside my bank since I don't know how long."

Silvia chuckled and said," You sound rich."

" I am rich. Too bad you don't wanna marry me." Kevin said.

Silvia laughed and said," Well I did not know that you were super rich."

Clearing his throat, Kevin said," So did uncle Thomas talk to you?"

Silvia nodded her head.

" And?"

" Well I wanted to reject your generous offer but now I'll think about it." Silvia said.

" Okay take your time." Kevin said.

" Kevin." Silvia said.

" Hmmm."

Silvia smiled and said," You are a very good person."

Kevin chuckled and said," Tell me something that I don't know."

Silvia rolled her eyes and said," How cheeky."

" Good God woman don't roll your eyes like that. Don't they hurt when you do that?" Kevin asked.

" You don't like it because your ex used to do it?" Silvia asked.

Kevin shook his head and said," Not only her. I don't like it when anybody does that. It's irritating and I don't know scary may be."

Rolling her eyes one more time, Silvia said," Don't be so dramatic."

" Didn't you have a shift in the morning today?" Kevin asked.

Silvia nodded her head and said," Yes I had one in the morning. I am doing an extra night shift."

Kevin raised his eyebrows and asked," Why?"

Silvia chuckled and said," They pay us double for extras."

Kevin helplessly shook his head and said," Not good for your health."

" Your pretentious cold personality is also not good for your health too." Silvia said.
