By the time Oliver is done with surgery it was afternoon. Due to some complications, the surgery duration has extended, however, the most important thing is that they were able to remove the tumor from the brain without affecting vision, speech and movement.
"Did Kyra come with you?"Oliver asked his assistant, Roger as soon as he came out of the operation theatre. His thoughts were revolving around Kyra even during surgery.
Moreover, she said that she would come back to the hospital if her scans come back normal but he didn't see her in the gallery. It made him worry that her scans are not favorable.
"No sir. Miss Kyra had a brain concussion and she also suffered from seat belt syndrome. Her abdominal pain is because of the excessive force applied by the seat belt on her chest and abdomen during the accident."
"Fortunately there was no internal bleeding or bruises however there was a slight swelling because of the muscle strains. She shouldn't physically exhaust herself for a week and she will be fine", Roger gave the total info as he handed Kyra's reports.
Oliver nodded his head as he looked at her reports. He didn't know why but he felt his heart was very heavy and suffocating after hearing this. He couldn't help but worry about her.
"Where is she now?" Oliver asked, concern evident in his face.
"We met her family halfway while returning to Miss Kyra's house. They picked her up from there.", he answered.
"Clear all my schedule for this evening and help me apply for a half day at the hospital,'' Oliver ordered Roger. All he wants now is to go and see her.
Though he didn't understand why he is overreacting now, he didn't try to resist it. He didn't want to do it as well and that was because he realized from their previous interactions that she holds a very special place in his heart.
"Sir, there are some emergency cases you couldn't reschedule today. It is your outpatient's day and some have already arrived here from long distances.", Roger said.
He already informed Oliver's grandfather about the recent progress in Oliver's and Kyra's relationship.And that old man got furious. He was placated only after a lot of reassurance from him.
All Roger could pray for is to keep his word now. And, he is trying his best now!
"Fine. But reschedule all the meetings after seven.", Oliver said. As he can't neglect his patients, he could only compromise for now.
"Sir, your grandfather is returning. He called me earlier and asked to schedule a dinner meeting with you tonight," Roger interrupted Oliver's plans again.
Oliver frowned, clearly disappointed. He really wanted to see Kyra now!
"Shouldn't he be returning next week? Why did he return so soon?" Oliver asked.
After a few seconds, he couldn't help but sigh and give up.
He can't say no to that old man as he pity him. He lost his only son and the Goddaughter who was also his daughter in law.
So, he is extremely sensitive when it comes to his grandchildren, especially his grandson, Oliver.
As Oliver had suffered a lot when he had broken up with his first love, ever since then, the old man was worried about him.
"Inform him that I would be there by eight.", Oliver told Roger.
Roger nodded his head and smiled inside victoriously. But it didn't last long when Oliver burst his happy bubble.
"We will visit Kyra around seven and then go to meet my grandfather." he told Roger before going to have his own check ups.

"I am fine, mom. Just concussion and some injuries.", Kyra comforted her adopted mother whose eyes brimmed with tears looking at her like this.
"We… we were so.. worried.", her mother's voice cracked as her fingers brushed Kyra's bandaid on forehead.
"I just saw the reports, love. Our daughter is lucky that she didn't have any major injuries.", her adopted father comforted his wife.
"See, even dad confirmed. Stop worrying mom. I am here, safe and sound.", Kyra comforted her mother who is known as the strongest woman in the outerworld world. But to the family, she is a sensitive and emotional person.
"God forbid but what if something serious would have happened?? Kyra, be careful from now on and don't travel in these circumstances ever again.", her mother chided her after controlling her emotions.
"How is Oliver?" her first brother asked after giving her water to drink. He was in the car with her while returning from Oliver's research facility so, he has shown his fair amount of concern already.
"Don't know. He said he will have his check up after the surgery. I want to call but I didn't want to disturb him ", Kyra answered, her voice filled with concern. He looked so exhausted that she couldn't help but worry about him.
"He should have been more careful while driving!"Matthew said, anger and jealousy evident in his voice.
He has known Kyra for years but he never saw her this worried for him. It made him very envious of his arch enemy Oliver.
"It's not his mistake. The reckless teenagers in that sports car are to blame. He took great care of me yesterday night. I am grateful to him" Kyra immediately defended Oliver.
"Someone is very protective of Oliver. What's going on between you both.", her fourth brother, Ryan teased, for which Kyra blushed remembering the night. They shared the same blanket topless. She was hugging him when she woke up…
They even had an open heart conversation and they talked about things they never shared with others. It was heartwarming and empathetic.
"Nothing is going on! He is my idol and teacher. Can't I worry about him?", she asked, trying to sound indifferent but her face gave up. Her face is now looking like a ripe tomato.
"And, you are blushing!", he teased again.
"Yeah Kyra. Having feelings for your teacher is cliche", her best friend, Sofia played along.
"Guys stop! If you speak even a single word about us, I am gonna leak a scandal about you both to the media", Kyra blackmailed them.
It works so well on Ryan and Sofia that they zipped their lips. Being a top actor and famous model they know how terrifying it will be to have scandals.
