Chapter 34

Something About You

Flora and the others went to Frankie's house, where Flora knocked out Gallen after the latter lost control of himself and harassed Kenix. Ada, Francis and Moses stayed outside the ward while Flora was attending to Gallen inside, accompanied by the latter's doctor, Dr. Koo.

Ada and the others were wondering how about the discussion going on inside.

Ada: They're making me so worried! Do you guys think Gallen will be alright?

Moses: (shrugs) I'm not the doctor, how would I know...

Ada: Hey, he's your buddy anyway! Can't you be more apathetic?

Moses: I don't quite believe someone is showing real altruism...

Ada: (puts her hands on her hips) Now what are you implying?

Moses: I don't know... well... you'll never know... someone had once admired Gallen so much...

Ada: Hey, Moses Chan!

Francis: (laughs) Will you two little couple stop all these bickering? Gallen's gonna laugh his head off if he sees you like that!

Moses: (jokes) So perhaps we can go in and perform a little act to make him normal again?

Ada: (unhappy) Hey!

Francis: (to Moses) Well you could try, but the probability is low, for sure!

Ada: Now don't try to be funny, Mr. Moses Chan! (shakes her head) I pity Gallen for having a friend like you! (snickers) Call yourself his buddy!

Francis: Hey hey...

Ada: I'm not done with, Francis!

Francis: Nope but... (waves his hand) you guys don't need to guess, Flo's out now!

Ada: (went up to her) How was it, Flora?

Flora: Erm...

Ada: How was it, Flora? Don't scare me... what was the result of the discussion?

Flora: I guess we need to keep him here for a while more.

Ada: What’s exactly wrong with him?

Flora: I guess it’s Kenix’s reappearance which triggered off this… According to Dr. Koo’s diagnosis, his accumulated fears all these years have attacked him again when he sees Kenix and got reminded of their past. He’s afraid that history may repeat itself and…

Ada: Somehow I just feel it’s not that simple… he keep saying he needs to talk to Kenix.

Flora: He’s just finding an avenue to escape, to take the easy way out… because he doesn’t want to face the problem… as for his trembling hands, we suspect he may be taking some other drugs other than the ones prescribed to him…

Moses: Drugs? You mean…

Flora: Not those illegal ones, but we do think he’s taking ‘hello’, a kind of drug for mental disorders…

Ada: Oh gosh, where did he get it from?

Flora: (shakes her head) I have no idea either…

Francis: You’re tired too, let me send you back so you could take a rest!

Flora: (nodding) Ok… Moses, Ada, you two should take a rest too…

Ada: It’s okay, sis. We applied for leave for the day.

Moses: Yeah. (reassuring her) I’ll be keeping her accompany. Don’t fret, Gallen will be alright!

Flora: Call me if there’s anything!

Moses: Sure!

Francis and Flora were walking from the car park when they saw Myolie pacing back and forth below their building.

Francis: It’s her?

Myolie: Hey! You guys are finally back! I have been waiting!

Francis: What’s the matter?

Myolie: I heard Lo-sir is unwell, and something happened to him so I thought of…

Francis: I thought you’ve given him up, why are you still…

Flora: (to Francis) You talk to her, I’ll go up first. (leaves)

Myolie: (looks at her) What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?

Francis: What’s up with you?

Myolie: I’m just showing concern for my superior and friend, what’s wrong with you?

Francis: (eyeing her) You sure?

Myolie: Of course! So how’s he?

Francis: If you wish to visit him, he’s in the hospital… and Ada and Moses are there too.

Myolie: But why isn’t Flora-jie there?

Francis: She need a rest, girl!

Myolie: (mumbling) I just feel there’s something wrong with her…

Francis: I think there’s something wrong with you!

Myolie: You’re always defending her!

Francis: I can’t see why you have so much free time!

Myolie: Who says I’m free? I’m supposed to be out to investigate a case!

Francis: And what are you doing here now?

Myolie: (pouts) I feel that you’re picking on me purposely!

Francis: That’s what you think, but that’s not what I’m doing!

Myolie: You can say whatever you want!

Francis: I’ll see you then, bye! (walks away)

Myolie: (calling after him) Hey! You haven’t told me which hospital Lo-sir is in!

Francis: Ask Jess!

[outside Flora’s apartment]

Francis: Hey Flora! Open the door, it’s me!

Flora: (opening the door) You’re disturbing my sleep, Francis! Close the door for me please. (lands on the sofa)

Francis: Were you mad at Myolie? Don’t mind her, she’s just…

Flora: I’m not, you’re thinking too much. I’m just tired, as you can see…

Francis: I think you seriously need a sleep. (ushers her into her room) Do you need me to wake you up later?

Flora: (sleepy) What for?

Francis: To pay your Gallen a visit later!

Flora: Hmm… I’m so tired today. Maybe another day!

Francis: Another day? But he’s…

Flora: Why would I need to be there anyway? He has got Dr. Koo to attend to him, and you guys would take turns to visit him, wouldn’t you?

Francis: But I think he still hope you’re there…

Flora: Hmm mm…

Francis: Flora? (to himself) How could you just sleep like that when I haven’t finish with my words?

[Hospital – same day – evening]

Moses: I see you’re yawning, do you need to take a rest? I can still manage…

Ada: Actually we can’t really be here for him 24 hours a day…

Moses: I guess it’s temporary… We’ll…

Ada: (interrupts him) Hey I think someone’s calling you!

Moses: From where?

Ada: Inside!

Moses: (going in) Gallen?

Gallen: Moses! Ada! Save me! Save me please!

Ada: What are you saying, Gallen?

Gallen: Flora! Where’s she?

Moses: She’s gone back to have a rest…

Gallen: (grabs his hand) Moses, you’re my buddy, you must help me!

Moses: (nods) What can I do?

Gallen: Release me! I don’t want to be tied up here! Look what they’re doing to me! They think I’m some animal?!

Moses: Look Gallen, they’re trying to help you! and we’re trying to help you too!

Gallen: If you want to help me then let me go! I want to go see Kenix, I got something to tell her, it’s very important, Moses!

Moses: (suggesting) Why not you just say it to me so I could convey the message for you?

Gallen: (angry) You still don’t trust me!

Moses: Or is it the other way round?

Gallen: (thinking) Okay, I’ll tell you something… (to Ada and Moses) But promise me you can’t reveal this to Flora…

Ada: Why?

Gallen: Because I’m afraid she would harm Kenix! There’s something else you aren’t aware of…
