" When does school start? " Leo asked as he tied up the table. Rosa wanted to help him but he refused
" who is the sick one here Leo I should be doing this. " she tried to reason with him but he didn't listen.
Throwing everything in the trash he said " You didn't answer my question. "
" About two weeks from now. but why are you asking? " Rosa asked
Walking towards his desk he opened one of the drawers and took out something from it. Walking towards her he spoke " Because we are going on a vacation. " she said showing her the flight tickets.
" What are you speaking about Leo. what vacation. you are about to get engaged... " Leo cut her off
" What if I'm getting engaged. can I not go with my sister. " Leo spoke as it's no big deal.
" I'm not your sister Leo and if I went with how do think that will make look like. did you thought about that," she spoke feeling her chest become heavier with every word she speaks. Rosa didn't understand what is this feeling but she knew that it's not a good feeling.
Seeing the tears that started to form in her eyes he took a step closer to her " I didn't mean to offend you. and I apologize for that. " he spoke pulling her in his arms " silly girl. I have thought about everything. and I won't take no for an answer don't think about anything I will handle everything. " he pulled back kissing her forehead.

" Rosa. " Elena called her daughter.
" Just minute," she replied placing the folded clothes on the bed.
" What is it mam? " she asked sitting beside her mother on the sofa.
" Leo called me yesterday. " her mother spoke
Rosa froze when she heard her mother. gulping softly she tried to act normal. " What did he say? " she asked.
" He told me about a doctor that he found for your condition. he said that the doctor is very good. " Elena explained.
Rosa noticed that her mother was happy with what Leo had told. but why he didn't tell her about that when she was with him.
" The appointment is next week so you have to fly with him to England this weekend. I already told your father and said yes though he was sad that you will leave us for ten days we want what's best for you Rosa. " Elena wiped her tears after she said these words. Elena and David had always wanted to take Rosa to be treated outside the country but they couldn't afford to.
" Mam please don't cry. If you don't want me to go then I won't. " Rosa hugged her mother she hated to see her tears.
" No. you must go. don't mind me you know that I'm always emotional and easy to cry. " both the mother and daughter stayed like that for a while hugging each other.

" Don't worry in here with you. " Leo spoke holding her hand in his
After about five minutes a nurse came to take Rosa and Leo to the doctor office.
" Good morning Miss Rosa. Leo " the doctor was the first one to speak " Have a seat. " the doctor pointed to the chairs
By looking at him Rosa could tell that he was the as same age as Leo.
" Good morning. " Leo replied
" Leo made me cancel all my patient's appointments Just to examine you. " the doctor spoke as Looked at Leo " You must be very special. "
" Don't say that you will embarrass her. " Leo spoke seeing how her face turned red.
" Alright. I won't say more. " the doctor offered Rosa a small smile. " Please sit over there. " he pointed to the medical machine.
Rosa was familiar with this kind of a medical examination so she wasn't very nervous. the doctor started to examine her eyes and after a while, Leo noticed that there is something not right.
" Rosa. do you have any files that contain information about your medical history? " the doctor asked.
" No. I don't," she replied
" Is there something wrong? " Leo asked as he came to stand beside Rosa.
" I need to do an MRI scan. "
Leo frowned upon hearing the doctor words but he kept his emotions in check not wanting to scare Rosa.
