Alex walked home feeling so sad because of what Kim did to him. He walked to the hospital where Kim’s father was admitted. He got to the ward and walked in to see Racheal chatting with her husband. “Racheal,” Alex called and she raised her head to see Alex boiling in anger.
“What’s up?” She asked standing up and Alex looked at her husband. “Hi, Alex.” He greeted, and Alex smiled faintly. “Hi, sir.” He said. Kim's father, Peter noticed Alex wasn’t looking so happy and he was trying to keep his feelings.
“Are you okay?” He asked and Alex nodded smiling. Rachael walked up to him and they both walked out of the ward. “what is going on?” She asked and he sighed. “I am just back from the hospital where Landon is laid. I met with Kim and can you believe what she did?” He asked and she kept looking at him.
“What?” she asked. “She slapped me. She f**king slapped me.” He said in a very angry tone and Racheal had the great urge to laugh. “Are you laughing?” He asked in anger and she shook her head trying not to laugh. “No, I am not. What happened? Why did you go there in the very first place?” She asked and Alex sighed.
“I thought she was the one that fell sick, so I wanted to say Hi. We ended up arguing and at the end, she slapped my face.” He said and she bursted into laughter. “Alex, I don’t know why I am saying this but believe me you deserved it. Why did you go there without letting me know? You know how much she hates seeing you around.” Rachael stated and Alex's mouth fell open in shock.
“Are you saying that to me? Rachael.” Alex said in amusement. “Alex, enough of this familiarity okay? You can see Peter if you want, but I won’t discuss Kim with you anymore. She has seen the person her heart yearns for, you should find yours too. She is happy, you should be happy too.” She replied and Alex scoffed, nodding.
“Now I understand.” He said and Racheal smiled nodding. Peter picked up Racheal's phone, luckily for him, her phone was yet to lock. He went to her call logs and put a call across to Kim. For a minute, he doubted what Racheal told him about Kim being too busy to visit.
The phone rang and Kim picked it up almost immediately.“Mom, Landon said you called,” Kim stated and Peter smiled widely. He missed her voice so much. “Baby girl.” He said and Kim’s eyes widened and her mouth dropped open. “Dad. How are you doing Dad?” she asked with tears of joy rolling down her eyes. She missed him so much too.
“I am not good. You are too busy to visit.” He said and Kim furrowed her brows. “Too busy? I am never too busy for you Dad. Who told you that?” She asked and Peter sighed knowing his wife did it again. “Your mother claimed to have called you, and she told me you are too busy to come to see me.” He explained and she looked at Landon.
“She didn’t talk to me, Dad. She talked to Landon because I wasn’t with my phone when her call came in. Dad, you know I would never say that. Why did she tell you that?” she muttered then she noticed the weird look on Landon's face.
“What did she do this time?” Kim asked herself, staring at Landon. “Dad, can you give me a few minutes? I need to talk to Landon.” She said and her father hung up the call. She walked closer to Landon who shut his eyes after hearing her last statement.
“Landon, what did my mother tell you? Please don’t lie to me. That is the worst thing you can do to me right now.” She said and he sighed. He opened his eyes and looked straight into her eyes. “When she called, she told me she wanted to ask you for some amount of money because of your Dad's treatment. That is all, and I decided to help.” He said and she sighed, bowing her head.
“My father just called me, and he didn’t tell me he needed any treatment or anything. He is very okay, I don’t know why she is like this. Did you send it to her?” She asked and Landon nodded. She wanted to speak up again but Landon stopped her.
“It’s fine. I just did it, not as if I fell for it anyway. She sounded so happy when she heard me so I knew she was lying.” He said and Kim rolled her eyes. She was so angry. “Then why did you give it to her? And how much did you send to her?” She asked.
“Kim, I just wanted to help. I am going soon anyway, I won’t be taking the money along with me so it's nothing.” He said and she sighed. “How much is it?” she asked and Landon shook his head.
“You don’t expect me to tell you that Kim.” He said and before he knew it, Kim reached for his phone and began to search it. “What are you doing?” Landon asked.“I need to know how much you sent to her. She has to return it.” Kim said in anger and Landon shook his head calling her name.
“Kim!” he called but she refused to listen.“Kim!” he called again but she still kept mute. “Kim!!” He called the last time, in a louder voice and this made Kim shake. She looked at him and she could see tears in his eyes.
“Landon, why are you crying?” She asked in a shaky voice. “Kim, don’t you get it? I have a few days to live!! I didn’t give people the way I should when I was okay and now I am privileged, please let me do this. I don’t want to care If she lied or not, I am happy I could give.” He said and tears rolled down Kim's eyes.
She nodded, shutting her eyes, she couldn’t take seeing him that fragile. Suddenly, the door of the ward opened and Sara walked in disrupting the emotional atmosphere. “Landon, how are you?” she asked in tears, approaching him.
“I am good.” He said, trying to smile. “No, you are not. The doctor told me what was going on.” Sara said in tears and Kim fell to her knees. She couldn’t withstand it. “I can’t wait for tomorrow anymore. I need to do this now.” She thought standing up and running out of the ward.
She ran down to the doctor's office and knocked on the door. She opened it and met the doctor talking to another patient. “Miss Kimberly, can you please wait till I am done?” he asked and she shook her head in tears.
“Please, you need to give him a second Kidney now. I can’t take it anymore, I need it for him now.” She said in tears. “We will come back, doctor.” The patients said walking out of the office. “Miss Kim, we can’t rush things like this. I said you should come tomorrow so we could think about this well.” He explained.
“I already thought about it, Doctor, can’t we perform the surgery now? I am so ready.” She said and the doctor nodded. “We can.” He said and Kim was so scared. She had never had surgery in her life since she was given birth.
“Let us go now.” She said walking out the ward. She pulled out her phone and put a call across to her father. “Hey, Dad.” She said after he picked up.“Hey, Kim. Can you come to visit now?” He asked and she shook her head, cleaning her tears.
“Dad, I will come to see you tomorrow, okay? I love you so much.” She said in a shaky voice and her father noticed. “What is going on Kim?” he asked and she hung up the call. “I am sorry dad.” She mumbled following the doctor.
