His Crazy Maid

The light flicker on and off as Larry walked through the lobby with some other nurses.

He adjusted his coat and grunted.

“I thought I put Sam in charge so why do I have to be disturbed yet again.”he said.

The light flickered back on but, it soon went off.

“And what the hell did the electrical is doing up there.”he added with a light scoff.

They entered the ward, passing by Annie who had her face buried in her legs.

Sam looked back at Larry and heaved a sigh.

“Thank God you’re here.”he mumbled.

“I don’t know you’re this incompetent, Sam. Anyways, what’s wrong with her?.”Larry asked as he moved closer to Annie’s mother.

“You should stop being rude, Larry.”Sam sighed.

He was tired of his childish attitude.

“I already run a test on her and according to it, she has appendix.”he explained.

“Oh, well then. Go prepare for a surgery.”Larry stated.

“Where’s her guardian?.”he asked the nurse.

“She’s outside. She’s the one we passed by minutes ago.”she replied.

“I will talk to her. Start preparing for the surgery.”he directed and stepped out.

He saw Annie, her face still buried in her legs.

“Hey, little miss.”Larry called in a whisper.

She jerked and slowly raised her face up.

She stood up immediately.

“Doctor, how is my…”

“Follow me.”Larry said and started walking away and without hesitation, she followed him.

They got to an office and he brought out a key and inserted it inside the keyhole.

The door opened and he pushed it in and walked away to his desk and Annie also entered.

“Please, tell me, doctor, what’s….”

“The door please.”Larry said instead while pointing to the door.

Annie stared at it then sighed getting what he’s trying to say.

She walked to it and close it.

“Good, now, do have your seat please.”he said and gestured for her to sit down.

She nodded and sat down.

“What type of relation did you share with the woman.”he asked as he pulled off his coat and hung it around his chair before sitting down.

“I’m her daughter. Tell me, what’s wrong?.”she asked.

“Did you know she is diagnosed with a disease called appendix?.”he asked and she nodded.

“Yes.”

“And you didn’t get it treated?.”he scoffed.

“We… we didn’t have the money they required us to get for her surgery.”she explained.

“And I believe you’ve got the money. She’s currently in the critical and final stage now and the stage is quite difficult. We would need to operate on her soon, the lastest time is in the next two hours or else, we will lose her.”he further explained.

Annie’s eyes dropped down.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Wh… wha… what?… please… please sir.. I.. I…”she stuttered.

Larry went through some files and slide a particular one to her.

“Here, we would need your signature before we can commence on the surgery.”he said.

Annie took the file and studied the content in it.

Her eyes widened in shock.

“#100 million dollar$. Where the hell do you want me to get that?.”she shouted.

Larry gazed at her gently.

“Little miss, you have to get the money in the next 30 minutes and I don’t really care about where you’re going to get it. It’s either you get it or you let your mother to die. The next thirty minutes will determine that tho.”
