Chereads / THE LAST MISSING PIECE / Chapter 30 - Chapter Twenty Nine

Chapter 30 - Chapter Twenty Nine

WAYNE'S POV

Looking from the unconscious Lucas, the doctor's statement kingers on my mind.

Flashback....

"What happned doc?"...Crane asked so I focused also on what he's going to say.

"What happened?"...Crane asked again so did he response.

"He's....."the doctor paused first so we even got worried.

"He's what?"....I asked more agressive but Crane calmed and stopped me.

"He's got a cut on his head, a deep one indeed seems like he didn't just get hit or the wood that hit him has it's own sharp object"....the doctor explained.

"We operated it and it's right I gound a tiny piece of sharp object on his head but dor now he may suffer a bit of memory loss because the impact was so hard"

"Then why did he seem okay when je got to us"...Crane asked.

"Well as for it, it seems that due to his drinking he felt nothing at first but as time passes the wound began bleeding inside that it'll made him faint."...he added once more.

After that he excused himself so we remained seated in the waiting room.

We were silent the whole time.

We waited till he was transferred to his room.

After that, I sent Crane home to inform his parents.

And now, I'm all alone...staring at Lucas sleeping, in a hospital bed.

It's 5:00 am in the morning and I haven't slept yet. I kept thinking about those bastards who did this to my friend.

*Phone rings*

At that moment I set my thoughts aside and pick up my phone to see who's calking at this hour. It turns out to be mom.

So I answer it quickly. She might be wondering what am I doing outside this late.

"Hey mom"

"Where are you, I'm worried about you"

"I'm sorry mom, Lucas was admitted at hospital--"

"What?! Lucas? Where's Grace"...she pointed Lucas's mom.

"Aunt Grace just took a flight to get here so I'm not sure when's she getting here"

"Oh my god, poor kid. Should I get you some clothes?"

"No need mom, I'll be home when Lucas is awake. Go to sleep now, love you"

"Love you too. Take care"...she said and then hung up the phone.

After that I went to step outside. Lucas is good now so I can leave him there sleeping.

On my way out, I found myself walking up to the buss station.

I wonder if she got home yet....

What? No, I shouldn't think about that

I'm still at the bus stop and the last bus suddenly made a stop onto it but I ignored it and remained seated.

No one is getting in so It was ready to leave but one voice clouded my ear that caught my attention.

"Wait!!!!"...It's her.

"Wait!!!"....she kept on screaming but  the bus driver couldn't hear her so It went on it's way.

Panting hard, she face-palmed and began walking slowly. She didn't even see me.

"Hey"...I called out, but due to frustation missing the last bus she just ignored me. "Hey"..I called her again.

She keot on ignoring me so I went and walk slowly from behind.

She's just walking. She must be tired from work. Woah, can't believe she got home 5:am.

Still walking, I just kept on looking at her from behind.

She's massaging her shoulder and sawying her waist so I can't help but to laugh at aht she did.

"Hahahaha"...then she stopped. She must've heard my laugh.

"Jerk?!"

"You're still calling me like that?"...I tried to stop my laughing but I just can't help it so I start laughing again.

"What are you laughing at? Huh?"...she said irritatingly so I stopped laughing and pull myself together. "You're just funny, I mean the way you sway your waist..haha"....starting to laugh again, I tried to stop and hold myself because I think she's gonna explode if I start again.

"Tsh! Laugh all you want, and what are you even doing here? Are you stalking me?"...she asked and took a step closer to me but I remained positioned.

"Me? Stalking you? Haha, why would I even stalk you?"..I said proudly and look at her.

"Really, then what are you doing here, walking from behind?"...she asked and got closer so I took one step behind to keep the distance betwen me and her.

"Stop your nonsense, and I'm not stalking you so get lost"...I said the turned my back on her to start walking inside the hospital.

But before I could get away she shouted very loud at me.

"JERK!!!!"....she shouted so I can't help but to take one look at her but then.

What?

She showed me her middle finger and began walking her way.

Woah?! What was that?

What a cunning woman!

Watching her walk on her way. I found myself having a little smile on my lips.

But I immediately got back to my senses and headed to where Lucas is.

It's almost 6:00 am.

Good thing it's Sunday today so there's no classes.

Before I could even twust the doorknob my phone began to vibrate on my pocket so I took it out to see who's calling.

Daniel

📞Answer        📞Decline

"Hey"

"I heard about Lucas, I'm sorry dude"

"No, it's okay, how 'bout you?"

"I'm fine, I'm actually heading there"

"Oh, okay, I'll see you then"

"Kay"

After that I ended the call and walked inside.

Walking through the hallway, I suddenly feel tired. It must be because I didn't sleep at all.

Stretching my body, I proceeded upstairs.

And just when I turned left I saw the nurse rushed inside Lucas room so I ran as fast as I can to get inside.

When I reached them,

I thought something happened.

He's awake.

Good thing he's awake.

Walking closer to him. I smiled at him.

"You okay, man?"...I asked and he just nod at me so I pat him a little on his shoulder.

"Hey, dude"...just then Daniel smiled at him too.

But after that the doctor came in.

"Are you the patients relatives?"...he asked and we nod. "He's good. His vitals turned to be fine but he shouldn't leave yet, We still need to monitor his head. So I suggest, maybe a week or two. That's all"...he said and leave.

"Lucas"...and right there we saw her mom. "M-mom"...he mumbled and Auntie walked up near him to hug him.

"She's pretty exhausted"....said someone on my side. Wait?!

"Crane? When did you get here"...I asked and he just gave me a playful smile so I ignored him.

"Maybe we should leave them for a minute, right?"...said Daniel so we started walking outside.

But before I can close the door. Lucas gave me light smile so I nod at him and went out.

Ahhh....I'm tired.

I should get some rest....
