Chapter 25

Infuriated

*Hospital, Jessica’s room, 12:30pm*

Ron and Tavia walked into Jessica’s room holding a basket of fruit, “How you feeling?” Ron asked Jessica as he placed the basket on the table.

“Much better, thankyou. But I still don’t understand why I have all these tubes attached to my body,” Jessica said pulling on the tube connecting to her arm.

Tavia quickly rushed over to Jessica, “Don’t pull on that, it will probably hurt you or make you bleed.”

“Did the doctors say when you could be discharged?” Ron asked as he peeled an orange for Jessica.

“I want to leave now but these doctors insist I stay for another day, they have absolutely no right to do that,” Jessica said not very happy with the hospital.

Ron handed her a piece of orange, “They just want to make sure you’re healthy to leave the hospital.”

Jessica took the orange off Ron, she was extremely happy that Ron would visit her whenever he could, he was exactly like Cheuk Hei, a caring young man, unlike Moses who was the exact opposite of both Cheuk Hei and Ron, she really didn’t know where he got his traits from.

Jessica looked at Tavia standing by the side, “Are you his wife?”

Ron laughed a little, “No… my best friend.”

Tavia smiled and nodded her head slightly disappointed that not only did Ron think of her in that way but he answered that question pretty quickly without even think about it.

“This is actually Kevin’s younger sister,” Ron told Jessica passing her another piece of orange.

Jessica was delighted to meet another Ga Wing’s descendents, “Let me look at you,” Jessica scanned Tavia up and down, “A very pretty young lady.”

“Thanks, I never get any compliments from Ron,” Tavia complained.

“You should really consider marrying her,” Jessica told Ron.

Ron laughed and shook his head, “Um… we have to get back to the hotel now, we’ll visit you some other day.”

Ron and Tavia walked out of the hotel towards the car, “That Jessica is funny, can you imagine you and I getting married?”

“Yes,” Tavia accidentally slipped out.

Ron stopped walking, “What?”

“I said… yes, in your dreams. I’m too good for you Ron,” Tavia joked trying to cover up what she slipped out.

Ron kept on walking, “Though I do think its about time you find yourself a boyfriend, how about I set you up on a date?”

Tavia didn’t say anything but just smiled, she sat in the car and for the whole trip back to the hotel she didn’t speak a word.

*Grand Hotel, CEO’s Office, 1:57pm*

Moses sat in his office flipping through a magazine as he waited for Bernice to show up. She walked in his office still wearing her chefs uniform and holding a plate of food.

Bernice placed the plate on the table in front of him, “Taste?”

Moses took a bite and chewed for a while without any reaction on his face, Bernice leaned in anxious for Moses’s opinion. Moses finally swallowed the food sat back on the chair continuing to read his magazine.

“So…?” Bernice asked wanted an answer.

“What?”

“How was it?” Bernice really wanted to know what Moses thought about it.

Moses lifted his hand and stuck his thumb out smiling.

“Really?”

“No, but I’m bias so I’ll think it’s good no matter what,” Moses said laughing.

Bernice slapped his arm, “I’m being serious.”

Moses pulled Bernice down next to him and put his arm around her, “How about a kiss then I’ll give you a real answer.”

Bernice backed away from Moses a little, “How about you tell me first?”

Moses pulled her in closer, “Come on…” he leaned forward trying to kiss her but Bernice kept dodging him.

Kevin and Frankie walked into the office, “Sorry,” they bother grabbed their folder and covered their eyes, “We’re leaving now.”

Bernice quickly jumped up slightly embarrassed, “I’ll see you later.”

Kevin and Frankie sat opposite Moses; “Things are going steady between you two?” Kevin asked.

Moses smiled, “What’s up?”

“Just need you to sign this,” Frankie handed Moses the file.

Moses flipped it open and didn’t even read it and signed the papers, “Done," and handed it back to Frankie.

Frankie took and file and walked back outside with Kevin, "He's going to get into trouble one day if he doesn't actually read what he signs."

Kevin sighed, "I know... but we've told him before. I'll keep an eye on it."

*Hospital, Charmaine’s room, 3:41pm*

Jessica opened the door to Charmaine’s room and walked inside, “How you feeling?”

“Hey grandma, I’m all right, much better than before,” Charmaine stood up showing Jessica she was better.

Jessica sat on the chair next to Charmaine’s bed, she had a very serious look to her face. Charmaine sat back on her bed, “What’s wrong?”

“The night you were attacked, I had flashes of you in my head. Although the flashes were short but the images were real, what I felt was real too. In those images, whatever happened to you was somehow affecting me too,” Jessica explained to Charmaine.

“Is that why you were admitted to hospital?” Charmaine asked knowing this must be some sort of connection with their time travel.

“When I flashed the image of you being choked, I also start to suffocate. When you blacked out, I also blacked out. When you were on the brink of death so was I,” Jessica explained further, “What does this mean?”

Charmaine thought deeply about this, there was a connection but how it would occur was beyond explanation, “Grandma…” She started saying but was interrupted with Raymond walking into her room, “Hey…”

“Hi,” Raymond greeted Jessica, “Feeling better?”

Jessica stood back up, “Much better,” she turned back to Charmaine, “We’ll talk later,” and walked out of the room.

“What are you doing here?” Charmaine asked as Raymond sat next to her on her bed.

“The doctor said he’s removing the bandage from you head today. So I came to have a look at whether you’re still pretty, if not then I’ll have to reconsider whether I still want to go out with out with you or not,” Raymond joked.

“Ha ha, you better not jinx anything,” Charmaine said concerned whether she will end up with a scare or not.

Raymond wrapped his arm around Charmaine, “If you really do have a scare on your forehead then I’ll be nice and look after you for the rest of your life. How about that?”

“Maybe I don't need you to look after me," Charmaine bickered back at Raymond.

A few minutes later the doctor walked into her room, “Ready?”

Charmaine bravely nodded her head, “No wait, Raymond turn around. I don’t want you to see.” Raymond turned his head and faced the other way.

The doctor slowly took the bandage off and examined her forehead, “Done, you can also be discharged from the hospital but you have to come back for a check-up.”

“Thanks doctor,” Raymond said shaking his hand.

The doctor walked back out of the room, Charmaine turned to Raymond, “OK, you can see now.”

Raymond slowly turned around; he looked at Charmaine’s forehead and had the most horrified look to his face.

“What? Do I have a massive scare now?” Charmaine panicked a little.

Raymond shook his head and pointed at her, “Your face… your face… is so smooth, what brand of mask do you use?”

Charmaine hit Raymond on the arm, “Not funny.”

Charmaine went in for another slap on the arm but Raymond stopped her and pulled her towards him, hugging her, “I told you that no matter what happens I will take care of you for the rest of your life.”

Those words just sunk right into Charmaine’s heart, she knew that she had finally found the right guy but will it be as lasting as she thought.

*Ma Mansion, 8:31pm*

Steven had been in his room for the past few days, the same image kept revolving around his head. The image of Raymond pinning him to the ground and his constant bashing kept circling in his mind. He felt so humiliated that everyone saw his injuries but not only that, he had to get his brother to settle the disputes, he took another gulp of beer, “I’m not going to let you win again…”

Steven clenched onto his bottle and threw it against the wall, smashing it into tiny pieces. He grabbed his keys and stumbled out of his room. He ran downstairs where Joe was sitting on the lounge reading a magazine.

“Where do you think you’re going?” Joe put his paper down and walked towards Steven.

“No where…” Steven’s expression on his face had given it all away.

“How many times do I have to tell you to not mess with Raymond Lam, look what he had done to you,” Joe pointed at Steven’s wounds on his face.

Steven pushed Joe’s hand out of the way, “You just want to me to sit back and forget about his humiliation towards me? You want me to forget how he beat me up?”

“No! I just don’t want you to be so impulsive, focus on taking them all down,” Joe reminded Steven.

“I don’t care, I only want to take Raymond Lam down!” Steven yelled out of drunkenness. He ran to the door swinging it open just as Bosco arrived home. Steven glared at Bosco and pushed him out of the way as he ran out of the house.

Joe didn’t want any more trouble caused by Steven anymore, he had already caused enough trouble, “Follow your brother and keep him out of trouble,” he ordered Bosco.

Bosco had no idea what was happening, he jumped back in his car and sped off chasing after Steven’s car.

*On the Street, 8:59pm*

Raymond walked along the street holding two bowls of desert, he took out his phone and dialled Charmaine’s number, “Hey… are you sleeping?”

“No, why?” Charmaine asked on the other side of the phone.

“I bought some desert,” Raymond stood by the lights waiting to cross the road to get his car, “I’m coming up to your place.”

Steven stopped at the end of the road and saw a blurry vision of Raymond standing next to the streets lights waiting to cross the road. Raymond’s constant smiling and laughing had ignited the anger within Steven. The fury within Steven was taking over him; it was as if he couldn’t control himself.

The lights turned green and Raymond started walking across the road, “Come on… it’s not that late…”

“I don’t know… we have to get up early for work tomorrow,” Charmaine hesitated a little; worried that Raymond won’t be able to wake up.

Steven watched as Raymond reached the middle of the road, “Raymond Lam!” he shouted pressing his foot hard down on the accelerator, charging in his direction.
