"Here's the rest of the payment." I deposited the money for Noah's medical fees to the hospital accountant.
"Thank you very much." The accountant took the money and handed me the receipt.
I forced a smile, took the piece of paper and went to see Noah.
I opened the door to his room. The doctor was already there examining him as he lay on the bed.
I walked up to them, "Hello Doctor Kim."
"Hello Nora." He glanced at me, "I heard you've deposited the fee today." He examined the papers in his hands.
"Yes, for the surgery and for this months charge."
"In four months you managed to earn enough that you paid for all the bills." He put his papers down and looked at me, "I hope you're not doing anything that will harm you."
"Does that matter?" I looked back at him, "It's not like the hospital will allow him to stay here for free."
He turned his gaze away without saying anything. There was nothing he could have said anyway.
He just walked out of the room.
