I only had three day offs in a year, but I still called up my company.
I then offered a few hundred dollars to my colleague who was resting at home that day to cover for me.
I flagged a cab and went straight to the hospital.
The driver was all smiles but drove as quick as lightning. I didn't want to complicate things so I simply told him that I was having a tummy ache and he got me to the hospital in the shortest time possible.
I handed him 21 dollars but he took only 20. He told me, "That's fine. Just hurry and go get a doctor."
I smiled and rushed to the hospital building.
I called the number back.
After what seemed like hours of ringing, the line finally connected.
"Hello?" I started.
"Hi, how may I help you?" a lady answered.
"Where is the owner of this number? I'm her grandson."
"Number 1 People's Hospital," she responded.
"I'm in here already. The specific location, please?"
