" she did everything but still lost her dad, she wasn't even here for the final goodbye" one of the two nurses in charge of Mr Mayers at St Augustine was lamenting on Karina's sacrifice and loss
" i feel bad for her,even after sleeping with a Jayden she still lost the reason for that too"
" oh Sam, stop it, it might be they are not sleeping together"
"oh really? well i know they are because sleeping with Eagan is like sleeping with the devil"
" you speak like you have done it before"
" two times, and it wasn't funny"
Estella approached the two nurses with hope that her friend would be in the hospital with her dad.
" hi, is Karina here?"
Sam looked at her and decided to use the intimidation card" who is asking?"
Estella, who is familiar with the bully of nurse decided to step up her game " her grandmother, you know the one with two horns and sharp carnies?, chose your victims wisely, roach, you wouldn't want me to redesign your beautiful red hair right?" Estella said this with all smile in the world but we all know she wasn't smiling.
the other nurse, who knows whom Estella is and wants to avoid her trouble by all means had to answer " we have been trying to reach her but to no avail, her dad is dead"
there was a pin of silence before Estella mustard all courage to say one word" thank you" she left them to the lobby and wept for her friend " it was my fault (crying) i pushed you into Eagan's web for my selfish reason, now the only reason you are doing this is dead(crying) I'm sorry Karina(crying) I'm so so sorry
***************************************
it's been five long hours, the longest of all days for Karina, she passed out four times and still woke to meet herself doing the same thing she was doing when she fainted the first time, she is weak, tired but it was over, Eagan have had his fill and have left her to rest but she knows better, she slowly gathered her stuffs without risking more pain but as the move her body would constantly remind her of her earlier exercise, she has successfully gathered all her stuffs, new set of undies was delivered to her and she was ready to go back to the hospital she came out from the room to meet Eagan on call and when he saw her he cut it immediately.
" i asked you to rest"
" i will rest better when I leave for the hospital"
"okay i drop you"
" no, i will go "
" have you seen the way you walk and your face?, did you want your dad to see you like this?"
" my dad will be resting by now, i have to go by his side before he wakes up, i will take a cab"
" i will drive you, end of story, let me get my keys"
" what do you want from me, i thought you got what you want"
" what i want? this is the best thing I've ever done today, so if you think this is the last time you will come here, think again because for me, there is no such thing as satisfaction, let me get my keys"
on the way none of them spoke to each other untill they got to the hospital.
" thank you"
" I'm coming with you i might as well see who I'm spending my money for "
" okay"
they got to the lobby and Karina met Estella crying, Estella never cries
" esty, what is it?"
"kari, I'm so sorry "
" what?, why?, what happened?
"Karina(crying) please I'm sorry"
"no you don't have to be have you seen my dad? he is better now"
" (shakes head) no he is not"
" no no (runs to the ward and Estella goes after her) where is my dad? i left him here, we spoke before i left, nurse Sam?, faith? WHERE IS MY FATHER!?"
" I'm sorry miss Karina, his time of death was 2:05 this morning, we tried to reach you at the final hours but your call went straight to voicemail "
"no, no NO!!!!!!!! i can't loose him, he is the only family i have, where is he? when i call his name he will wake up, WHERE IS HE!?"
"we moved him to the morgue "
"NO.......! daddy can't do this, he can't do this!, esty, i did everything, i did everything!, he still left me, you said i should do anything for my family and i did (crying) but je still left me!, i did my best!!!!(crying) you said he won't die if i did what Eagan wants, I've done it, there is nothing left,dad can't leave me!(crying)
Estella had to hold her because she was crying too but Karina's laments hurts her to the bone
" kari, please stop"
away from the rules, Eagan Stood outside and watch the whole thing happen and someone came beside him, " so despite being a specialist, you still let someone die"
" i did my best, it was late when i was contacted"
" did you see that girl? i fucked her for five hours with no mercy and she endured with no complain, all this for that man you couldn't save, you couldn't do one small job, idiot"
