“You locked the door? Move let me see the poor soul” barged in Stevens shoving Garret aside along with Garret following behind. Stevens checked the man thoroughly under Garret’s murderous glare from the couch.
Garret was about to bombard him with buckets of questions, Stevens held up his hands before he could “The patients’ life is in no immediate danger but … his left shoulder is badly injured I assume few bones are fractured he needs to be hospitalized”
“No way if this gets out it’ll cause trouble…can’t we treat his injuries at home? We can order the equipments” said a Ron nervously between Stevens and Garret.
“That’ll take time what if the fracture is serioud? He may end up crippled...” said Stevens adjusting his specs.
Without wasting another breath Garret scooped up the man like a doll“Let’s take him to the nearest one first…”
Ron attempted to guard his way, Garret ignored completely, went down the stairs within seconds and unlocked his car.
“The police will get involved let’s call the lawyers first…” reasoned Ron running after him.
“No time for that…and for everyone’s information, I drove the car..You stay and take care of Ela” Said Garret from behind the wheel, the doctor went and stood in the front.
“Maybe I should drive, you can sit in the backseat with the man” suggested Stevens.
Garret simply nodded and sat in the backseat. He took the man’s head near his shoulder in his embrace and began rubbing his cold body. “Find out about this person asp...” instructed Garret.
In response Ron simply nodded and gave a big sigh. ‘I hope he is not some big shot…what if he’s the president’s son…bullshit! Why would he be walking in the middle of the road embracing the night’ mumbled Ron to himself.
He rushed upstairs to Garret’s room and picked on the man’s wet cloths lying around. “Damn…that’s some expensive limited edition shoes…nice fashion sense” spoke Garret nodding to himself and absentmindedly tossed it away.
The shoe dropped beside the fireplace with a thud making Ron’s eyes bulge out in shock “Shit!!” he cussed under his breath.
Back at the hospital the doctors were miserable as they were strictly monitored and bombarded with questions by Garret “How is he…the scan didn’t show anything serious so He won’t end up crippled right?”
The attending doctor forced a nervous smile and assured “No Mr. Park your friend will not suffer from any long term complication , he just needs to take good care of his arm for about two months and he’ll surely make a full recovery within half a year.”
“Six months full recovery? You said he is not in any serious condition” yelled Garret.
The terrified doctors gulped and calmly began to explain” Umm… you see Mr. Park your friend almost lost his arms due to delayed treatment and the weather is not helping much…we assure you he’ll recover just fine”.
“Wolf down a little bit…let the poor hardworking doctors take a break...geez ” sighed Stevens and almost immediately all the doctors bowed to him with immense thankfulness and ran away from the scary ‘beast's’ presence.
Garret immediately turned and focused all his concentration on the centre of his current attention. He sat close to the bed blankly staring at the unconscious face wondering how his eye would look like, how his voice would sound like.
“Ron called, he found the man’s identity” said Stevens prompting Garret to avert his eyes from the unnamed man.
“His name is Liam Wang, the CEO of Wang Multinationals…in other words...we are screwed” spoke a nervous Stevens but Garret only heard half of it.
“Liam Wang…I love…the sound of it” whispered Garret smiling wide at the man with affection.
Stevens could not believe what he was witnessing. He previously at the villa did think that Garret was showing too much care for the stranger but ignored it. Watching his friend of three years he could not help but doubt his sexually. He always viewed Garret as a hunky playboy notorious among the company of beautiful women, he never gave any Gay vibe, not even once.
‘One can never really predict human beings and their deep hidden desired no matter how long you know that person’ thought Stevens.
“What was he doing strolling down a deserted road so late at night in such a bad weather, what were you thinking?” Garret questioned the unconscious man.
“Should we inform his family? May be the cops?” asked Stevens scratching his ears.
“Not the cops...It might cause problems for his reputation call his family...How come no one is looking for him…?” asked Garret through his teeth.
“Hey don’t be all judgmental now you don’t know his situation…” reasoned Stevens.
“I want to” quietly confessed Garret.
Within an hour of filing the hospital paper with Liam’s real name three men in black suit followed by a petite woman in pink and blue approached Liam’s ward. Turnedp out his family was searching for him with full intensity.
“Hello I am Jill Anderson, Mrs. Wang’s personal Assistance we are very grateful for your help, if you don’t mind can we ask few question regarding the accident?” asked Jill with a charming smile.
“I Hit him with my car…it’s my fault… I’ll be escorting myself to the police station I’ll make sure everything is handled quietly…” declared Garret in single breath with a blank face.
The women’s smiley face immediately twusted in anger, she wanted to explode but was dumbfound by Garret’s casual response “What…you….We should be saying that...we’ll make sure you get what you deserve” growled a fuming Jill.
The three men in black motioned to step in front of Garret to apprehend him but something in his glare made them freeze in their track. Garret walked out of the room but not before managing to steal a glace of the peacefully sleeping man. Stevens followed behind.
An irritated Jill violently dialed a number then took a deep breath to compose her voice “Hello Madame…yes I talked to the doctors he is fine…the culprit was the one who admitted him to the hospital....yes I’ll send someone right now...sure”
After instructing the men in black she stood in front of Liam’s bed with tears and fire in her eyes “You’ll pay for it...whoever you are “ promised Jill looking at the door with determination.
