"Hello Doctor!" The trainer greeted Sery as she walked in.
"Are you both done for today?" Seryne asked.
"Yes Doctor. I will be going now. See you again Mr. White." The trainer bowed and left after bidding his goodbye to both of them. In the Hospital, everybody addressed Seryne as the doctor an nobody knew her real identity or how see looked due to her wearing mask all the time.
"Lucas White, I need to have a chat with you, about your recovery." Sery went straight to the point as she made a trip to the hospital just to talk about his health.
"Sure DOCTOR!" Lucas replied stressing on the word Doctor.
"Your recovery is stable but I guess you are not willing to leave our hospital early as you don't seem to take my words seriously. How dare you overwork yourself? Are you so eager to die or what? You have been over working yourself in the previous rehab session. This can cause your vitals forcing you into another coma. Did you like your coma state so much huh? Care to explain why you are taking more than the time you've been prescribed in the session? Or you feel that you are more knowledgeable than the professional? Or maybe you still doubt my ability?"
Lucas was left speechless of how 'only business' her tone was even though she was almost on the verge of cursing him, it gave him the feeling that she wanted nothing to do with him. On other hand he felt touched as he knew that she still thought of him atleast as a friend.
"I just think a few more minutes can reap better effects." Lucas replied.
"Are you kidding me? Reap effect? Damn you could loose your nerves or maybe loose your vitals ? A few days in hospital seem so bad to you that you can even take the risk of damaging your body forever? Damn Mr. White you are really good.!!" Seryne said as her eyes furrowed a bit due to his foolish reasoning.
"Seryne I know you are worried but I have a lot of work pending over that I hate the idea of living in the hospital a day more. I've never had any doubt on your ability but I just can't. You know how much I hate being in a hospital." Lucas was very afraid of being misunderstood as he knew that could result in her never talking to him again.
"Ohk.... If that is the problem I'll discharge you after I'm sure your vitals are stable and also assign the trainer to help you in rehab at your home but if you prolong the session for even a minute it's the last day of us knowing each other. I don't keep friends with fools. And this ends here I guess."
"Yeah let's not argue anymore I'll listen to whatever you say. I am sorry but can you let Lorayne visit me sometimes? Been missing her." Lucas had always loved the idea of spending time with the little angel.
"I'll ask her if she's willing."
"Thank You."
"I'll be leaving then. See you again." Seryne left decisively after bidding farewell.
Lucas stared at her back thinking about how much time it will take for her to talk to him the same way she talks with others of her friend circle. He knew he would need to put more efforts he if wanted her to be same as before.
He still remembered her cold eyes when he first woke up. He also knew the reason for all this was his own choice of not telling them and keeping secrets from them. To add fuel to this fire he also suffered such bad injuries and almost lost his life. He knew that his friends must have felt like hell seeing him like that.
Seryne's side
Seryne walked out of the rehabilitation centre and left in her car thinking of how long it would take for Lucas to recover after all their plan was put on halt due to Lucas's condition. Before he woke they were thinking of shifting him to Australia but now that he woke up he needed to clear out his own works before they could finally send him to Australia as planned.
Just as Seryne thinking of how she can help Lucas clear the mess sooner her phone rang making her come out of her thoughts. The call was not other than her friends who were urging her to keep an eye on Lucas so he doesn't create more mess.
