Chapter 3 CH

Zach was about to ask Lisa what was wrong with her when Kevin coughed. And Cara grabbed Zach's hand. He looked back at both of them worried.

"Kevin, are you okay?" Cara asked with tear-filled eyes.

"Buddy, are you alright? Why did you do this with yourself?" Zach said to Kevin. He is worried for him, but still, his senses are towards the girl.

"I am fine..." Kevin coughed. Cara gave him some water to drink.

"Cara, let me ask that girl, she is crying so much!" Zach said. Cara shook her head in a no manner.

"Zach, we should stay with Kevin at this point. It would be better to be with him, he needs us. Everyone is worried and crying here. We can not help everyone." Cara said.

"Cara, I just wanted to ask about her problem." Zach held Cara's hand and started explaining to her... She nodded her head. He got up to go towards Lisa.

When the nurse came toward them.

"Sir, the doctor wants to meet you." She said. Zach nodded and he and Cara went to the doctor's cabin.

"Hello, Mr. Zach, come sit." The doctor said. They both sat down.

"Dr, how is Kevin?" Zach asked.

"Zach, there is nothing to worry about Mr. Kevin. He is fine." The Doctor said. Zach is still worried. He to be sure asked the doctor in worry.

"Doctor, you can tell me if there is any problem?" He asked.

"No, Zach, he is fine, just a little weak." The Doctor said.

"What if Kevin does it again?" Zach questioned.

"Then we can't guarantee the next time." The doctor warned him.

"Damn, doctor Kevin is very careless but I will try not to be careless for him to do it the next time," Zach said.

The doctor was satisfied after hearing this...

"Mr. Zach, we will discharge Kevin after a few days." The doctor informed him. Zach and Cara thanked him and they came out of the room.

"Come, let's meet up with Kevin, and then let's go, we have work to do..." Cara said. Zach nodded his head and went back to the ward with Cara.

They both stopped near Kevin's bed.

"How are you feeling? Buddy!" Zach sat down on the white chair next to Kevin's bed. Cara sat on the bench in front of him.

"For how long will you keep doing these things?" Cara scolded.

Kevin laughed at it.

"As long as I'm alive, this will go on Cara darling." Kevin flirted with Cara. He does not take anything seriously and that makes Cara furious. How can Kevin take all of it as a joke? She huffed.

"You will never understand our concern for you..." She said.

"Zach, I'll be waiting for you in the car." Cara left the room saying this in an angry tone.

"Why do you always make Cara angry?" Zach asked.

"I like to see the look on her face." Kevin laughed.

"Kevin, stop it and take care of yourself. I will come back to check up on you. And we have a project to do. You have to be better soon and I am warning you this is the last time you did this..." Zach warned Kevin.

Zach got up from the chair and was going to leave. He forgot about the troubled girl. Kevin looked at Zach.

"I'd love it if you would sit down for a while," Kevin said seeing Zach leave.

"I would stop by next time, I was so worried after hearing about your condition. I come to you leaving a very important meeting. But you are fine now, I am satisfied." Zach said in an upset manner.

"After you will discharge from here, we will do this fashion show. I will come to meet you again, but right now I have to go to the office. Take care." Zach came out of the room saying this to Kevin. Kevin always do something stupid and that disturbs Zach and Cara's life. But he is their friend and they both can not leave him.

Zach came out in a hurry and sat in the car.

"Let's go," Zach said with a smile on her face, her stare at Cara.

"Why don't you make him understand? Why did he always do that with me?" Cara explained.

"You know how he is, don't take him seriously," Zach said and grabbed Cara's hand.

"He just joke around with you, now please don't get serious." Zach made her understand. She nodded her head.

"Where are we going now?" Cara looked at Zach and asked.

"We are going back to the office. This project is very important to both of us and I can't neglect it." Zach looked at Cara.

"Zach, maybe you're forgetting something important about this project." Cara reminded Zach of something important. Zach was now thinking about the girl, so he couldn't hear what Cara said.

"Zach?" Cara held Zach's hand. He came out of his thoughts...

"I am talking to you, Zach where is your attention?" Zach looked at Cara and said.

"I am sorry, Yes, say, what is it?" He asked.

"Zach, I need a new face for this project'' She said after a deep thought.

"Yes, Cara, did you think you got any models to be the show stopper with me and Kevin?" Zach asked Cara.

"No, I still didn't have anyone, but Zach I will not be bringing any geriatric models into this project. They all look plastic and very artificial." Cara reasoned her thoughts...

"Hmm, well, we will see, you will get a fresh model," Zach said. Cara looked at Zach and started smiling.

They both were getting out of the parking when Zach once again saw her standing in the medical store. The lines of worry on her face, her eyes watery.

And his heart melted for that girl, but once more feeling erupted from his heart that he didn't understand yet. They drove out of the hospital and went towards the office.

***

Lisa was going back to the hospital after taking her mother's medicine from the medical store. Lisa kept the medicine on the side table and started talking to her mother.

"How are you feeling mother?" Lisa asked holding her mother's hand. She looked at Lisa and replied by indicating with her eyes that,

"Yes, she is feeling better." On the other bed, Kevin was now awake. He was trying to see Lisa because she was crying continuously... She turned around and Kevin saw Lisa.

"Mom, I wish, I would have money to pay your bills." Kevin was listening to Lisa very carefully.

"Everything will be fine!!! Don't worry," He said. Lisa turned around and saw him.

"Do I know you?" Lisa asked and stared at Kevin. Kevin looked at Lisa.

"To be honest, No. I don't know you, I saw you upset, so I thought to remind you to never lose hope. Everything will be alright..." Kevin said with a smile.

"Thank you very much, I feel a little at ease..." She said.

"I am Kevin, and you?" He asked.

"I am Lisa!!!" She said.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, I hope everything goes okay with you..." Kevin said. She nodded her head and after hearing this, Lisa got up from the chair and went out. Kevin was looking at Lisa and thought about how to stop Lisa for some more time.

Lisa hurriedly got up and came out of the emergency ward. Lisa went to the doctor and started asking the doctor.

"How is mom's condition now?"

"Lisa your mother is on the mend now, as long as the treatment is going on..." Lisa understood what the doctor said. Lisa has given up.

Lisa went out and wanted to be alone for a while. Outside the park, there was a brown bench where Lisa sat down. Lisa was thinking that she had no other choice but to take her mother home because she didn't have money to continue her treatment.

Sitting worried, Lisa suddenly thought that she has to pay today's hospital bill. All the money Lisa had was going to be spent in the hospital today.

When Lisa went to pay the bill. She went to the counter, she found that her bill has already been paid. Lisa was shocked to hear this.

Lisa went to the doctor after hearing about the bill.

"Who has paid this bill doctor?" Lisa came to the doctor's room and asked him.

"Miss Lisa, please, sit comfortably and we will talk." The doctor said.

He was a little shocked to see Lisa's condition.

"Please, sit down, Lisa." Lisa sat on the chair in front of her.

"Doctor, please tell me who helped me." She questioned.

"Lisa, Mr. Kevin has paid your bills." The doctor told him.

"Mr. Kevin?" Lisa was trying to remember the person.

The doctor told Lisa that Mr. Kevin was the one admitted to the bed next to her mother. Lisa remembered that this is the same Mr. Kevin she met an hour ago.

"You should thank them, Lisa." Lisa was surprised to know this.

"Thank you, doctor." Lisa came out of the room saying this and went to meet her mother. There was also Kevin who was waiting for Lisa anxiously.

"Why did you help me? You don't know me!!!" Lisa went to Kevin and asked him.

"Relax, Lisa, I have befriended you. We meet and I thought to help you, dear, it's no big deal." Lisa looked at Kevin in surprise.
