Chapter 23 - DOCTOR

"Good morning Mrs. Hale. I'm glad to meet you again. It's quite an age now."

Dr. Tee walks in the Beautiful mansion bowing as he greeted. Mrs. Hale smirks and they both handshake each other.

"Good morning,Dr. Tee. Indeed, it's been a while." She said. "Please have your seat." She added pointing at the Beautiful silver customized chair opposite her. "Thanks." He said as he use the chair.

"How's business and family?" Dr. Tee ask smiling at Mrs. Hale. "It's going well. Thanks. How's your hospital too?" She ask.

"It been God and will always be." He said.

Bint walks in their presence carrying a customized tray with two fancy glass cup on it filled with wine. She hand it over to Dr. Tee and Mrs. Hale. "Thanks." Dr. Tee said as he collected it from her.

They were gisting and talking about their experience when they were young about Klhoe's situation that they wouldn't hide anything from their mom till today. Lia Walks downstairs wearing a crazy bombshort and a beautiful classy crop top showing a side view of her shoulder.

She walks directly to Mrs. Hale and greeted; "Good morning Mrs." She said pecking her. "Good morning Lia, where's Klhoe?" She ask " She's good. She's freshing up in her room." Lia said. "Alright. Meet Dr. Tee. He's the doctor is called yesterday evening to come here today to check on your friend's health."

"oh! You called?"

Lia, presenting as if she doesn't know what she's talking about. Meanwhile she knew about the moment Mrs. Hale called Dr. Tee. She doesn't want the doctor to do this because everything will be opened and Klhoe will be dealt with in every aspect. She doesn't know what to do.

"Mom, Klhoe didn't tell you? Today is our final exam and it's very important to make it happen,if not,we won't be graduated."

Lia said to her even if her voice was shaking and it kinda sound real while saying that. Could she be lieing? Lia face Mrs. Hale and smile saying "I sure know,you don't want us to fail. You've laboured on Klhoe for God knows when. What I'm I even saying,from your womb. Now, she's about to graduate. I think,this should be done next time. She doesn't know how to tell you because she feel like she has been wronging you since. I'm sorry if this is hurt.."

She burying her head down with her two pams merge together pleading Mrs. Hale to adjourn this,to next time just for the sake of their examination they want to do.

Klhoe Walks down wearing a long trouser and a crop top too. Immediately she saw Dr. Tee,her face widen,her head banges. It just as if the ground should open it mouth and swallow her. She doesn't know how to behave herself there. She manage to walk to their direction. "Good morning mummy." She nodded. "Good morning Dr. Tee." She added. ",Good morning. How was your night?" He ask. "Good."

"Klhoe,why are you acting weird to me? You are changing, can't you see?!" Mrs. Hale yell as she ask her the questions. She couldn't say anything to her. She was just looking around like a confused person. "Did you tell me you have an exam today?!" Her voice sounded more pathetic as she ask that.

Mrs. Hale must have been tired of how Klhoe is reacting to her it seem unlike the child she used to know. Klhoe look at Lia in a surprise manner. Lia eye her giving her sign that she said so. "oh mummy. I.. forgot. I'm so sorry mummy."

Mrs. Hale look at her and shook her head. "You need to open up before it get worst than this. You are beginning to lose your mind. Don't you know? You are losing your mind off reality. Come to life and come as the Klhoe I used to know. You began this,not even know where the source came from. You just changed totally!"

Dr. Tee seem to be lost on why Mrs. Hale is yelling. He doesn't want to question her to add to the dramatic act he had experience by sitting down there. He look at Klhoe and ask "Didn't you know you ought to be class today?"

"I did know. But,I forgot to tell her about it. I never knew something like this will clashed the today." She said to Dr. Tee.

"Alright. We are human. It's very normal for us to forget things.."

Mrs. Hale interrupted with anger.

"But not normal to forget things everyday. She's really doing what I never assumed will come out from her. It crazy!"

Mrs. Hale yell while telling the doctor. "I'm so sorry I have to raise my voice in that manner. Her change,is even changing me."

Dr. Tee smirks. "Mrs. Hale, we just have to be careful and patience with children of nowadays. They just don't understand the pressure parent face raising them. Allow her to go write her final exam and we will get to meet next time for text. She can even come to office for it. After all, she's my baby sister too." Dr. Tee said calmly.

"Alright. I will just let this side. Just go have your breakfast and go. Lia,watch her for me. She's changing this days." Mrs. Hale said to Lia. Lia smirk and stood up from where she was sitting. She held Klhoe's hand and both take coincidentally glance at each other and take a few steps to the dinning table.

After they finish having breakfast,they both stood up and move to Klhoe's room to pick their bags and other stuffs to start going. When they got in,a call ring in. Klhoe check the phone and Check the caller. it's an unknown number again,this time not in Klhoe's phone. She yell as she call Lia.

"Lia!" she muttered

"Yes." she move out the bathroom looking tired.

"You missed a call. it's an unknown number. please don't pick the call. you know the situation I'm in now,I don't you to experience it. it's crazy!" she said to her looking her emotionally.

"You need to chill Klhoe. I don't know who could be. After all, I'm not just picking an unlimited number. And besides,do you even know if the person that is calling you is behind this. how is that possible?"

She walks to the mirror side and gather herself. she pick the call as her phone ring again.

"Hey Lia." t the voice sounded sweet and calm.

"Hey Richie!" Lia was happy to hear Richard voice again. After few weeks of not seeing, calling and not chatting.

"How have you been Amelia? your boo have missed you a lot." he said sounding more romantic.

"I know right. I will be back in few days time. I miss you too." she said to him smiling at Klhoe.

"Alright. I just can't wait for the date." Richard said.

She just the call and move closer to Klhoe who's making her face up and said;

"I told you Richard care about me."

"Why didn't you tell him you are at my place for weeks now?" she ask sounding like an angry bird.

"Oh! you want him to come here and experience this?" she ask shooking her head.

Klhoe didn't answer the question since it sounded more true to her. They both set up and move out of the mansion.
