Chapter 5

Lexi.

"Mom? How are you feeling?" I ask on the other line

"It's good son, I'm okay I can go back to work" Mama replied

"Mom, aren't we going to talk about this? .You don't just come out of my hospital, you're not that good yet, mama. "

"Yes son I understand, but how do we pay here?"

.I feel the problem with mama's voice, and I'm also worried about how we're going to pay for that.

I sighed

"I'll take care of it. I'm needed on the sideline"

"Son, don't strain yourself too much. Take a deep breath too"

."Yes" I promised

"It'll be later, I'll rest first," said the nurse

"All right, I'll go there later."

I said I turned off my phone

I also saw Ciara, my Bestfriend, heading in my direction.

."You're problematic" Saad said and sat down on a chair

I'm at his caffé now and I also work here.

I sighed "How is that mama's expensive medicines, and we also have a big bill at the hospital ..where can I get the money to pay for it? "I said sadly

"Accept my money first" He promised

"Eh, where can I get the payment?"

"Sus Lexi! .don't think about that first, think about your mama first "He said and took my hand and put the envelope

"It's only 50,000 but don't worry I'll find something to take"

"I don't want this to be too much"

."What are you, bff?"

I was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang

"All right, let's go" He said and stood up, I nodded in agreement ..

"Son, that's it" He turned to me

"Yes, how are you?"

"It's okay, eat that?"

I nodded and he just smiled

A nurse entered

."Excuse me ma'am, doc is already here so I can check how you are" He said and left

The doctor came in, his face gentle and stocky. Maybe it's just my age

.he looked at me from head to toe and his eyes landed on my soot. I remember I was croptop and short, You're embarrassing Lexi!

It sneezes before speaking

"Mrs. Suazon right?" He asked mama

Mom nodded

."Your condition is okay, in a few months you can go out, just take your medicine so you can recover quickly" He added and looked at me again

"Thanks for the good news, Doc" Mom said

."Where are all our bills here doc?" I can't help but ask

It looked at me stickily

"900,000 miss." He promised and my lips felt sorry for him

Where can I get more money? .Lexi.

ng pera pang bayad?.

I'm here at the hospital now, I went in and said goodbye to my nurse, can I visit, she nodded and let me into my mom's room.

"Mama ..." I called softly but it was heard

. ".son, here it is "He turned to me

"Yes, how are you?"

"It's okay, eat that?"

I nodded and he just smiled

A nurse entered

. ".excuse me ma'am, doc is already here so I can check how you are "He said and left.

The doctor came in, his face gentle and sober. Maybe it's just my age

..he looked at me from head to toe and his eyes landed on my soot. I remember I was croptop and short, Lexi is embarrassed!

It sneezes before speaking

"Mrs. Suazon right?" He asked mama

Mom nodded

. ".Your condition is okay, in a few months you can go out, just take your medicine so you can recover quickly "He added and looked at me again.

"Thanks for the good news, Doc" Mom said

. ".Where are all our bills here doc? "I couldn't help but ask

It looked at me stickily

"900,000 miss." He promised and my lips felt sorry for him

Where can I get more money .

Lexi.

"Next month the payment, get your money ready." Promise it and come out

I looked at mama who looked worried

"Son..I told you, we're going to pay a lot so I can do it" He said

"Mom, don't worry I'll take care of it okay? .just get well "I said and tried to smile at him

"Take a breath" I added and he nodded

I took the bag full of my extra clothes, I took my shirt

.I'll get dressed first, my soot is embarrassing

I went out and was suddenly greeted by a nurse

"Yiee! Doc looks at you badly. Eros, your hair is long! What's your shampoo? Dejoklng"

."You know, earlier when he was looking at you maybe he crushed you. With other nurses who are beautiful like me, you can't look like that but you grabee! Your hair is really long"

He promised and I smiled

What would he say?

."Me haha, maybe you just looked wrong—"

He cut off what I was going to say.

"No no! You're really that interesting ehe seneel"

"I'll get dressed first."

"Sigee be careful hehe"

I just shook my head and went for a walk ..
