Tiny Truth
He was still wearing the black jacket he wore in the morning. His meeting with Aaron got into him, he thought of everything that just happened as a sign he needed to take the huge deal. He stopped at an alley, entered and sat on a garbage box which hasn’t been used for a while. With his right hand he rumbled in his pocket for a stick and a match. Within two minutes he was already smoking. Someone dressed in a black jacket and dark sunshades entered. She appeared to be hidden as she wore a scarf which covered from her mouth down to her jaw. The only visible feature of her body was her hair, it was ginger.
“You look really terrible.” The stranger muttered, as she took the burning cigarette from Wilson and stamped the light off it.
Wilson remained unbothered as he watched her, he had no business talking or making a fuss. He dared not do such.
“Get hold of yourself, it’s just the beginning and there’s more work to do.”
“You think I’m daft?” He asked in laughter.” I have everything figured out. I’m doing just fine.”
” This better be good news, I’m taking no more failures from you.” She warned.
“I respect you for a reason, don’t make me your enemy.” Wilson warned, taking off the black shades to show how serious he was.
“You are nothing without me Wilson.”
” Fuck you asshole.” He yelled at her.
She sighed pitifully before leaving, but a warning trail off from her mouth as she was leaving.
“You will regret this action and come to apologize.”
“Fool.” Wilson muttered under his breath as soon as she was gone.
His phone vibrated and it was a text. He grinned.
Just what he had been waiting for, he thought.
He walked out of the alley not following the direction he had entered, a car pulled over just in front of him and a chauffeur dressed in a funny white suit rushed immediately to open up the door.
” What’s your command sir?” The chauffeur asked, immediately he got to his seat and started the car.
” To the hospital. The usual.” He answered with a devilish smirk on his face.
“Okay Sir.” He answered as the car was ejected in motion.
The route was quite lonely and no clear sign of living things existing. The only thing was the long tiled road that led to where only the two men in the car knew.
The car drove for another 20 minutes before it got to a building which looked like a hospital but on closer inspection it hasn’t been used for a long time. Immediately they entered, the big gates were closed making a loud chatter.
“Get me the doctor,” Wilson ordered.
He entered the only clean part of the building, an office which hadn’t been affected by the earthquake.
The doctor came after a minute or two, looking scattered and untidy. The lab coat he wore was old and had brown patches all over that loved like tobacco stains. He had freckles around his nose which spread to both sides of his chin. The doctor was accompanied by a fierce looking man who wore a black vest and a Jean pant. The vest looked undersized because of his muscular nature, but he looked scary with his small eyeballs . On his left hand, he had the tattoo of a Scorpion just above his wrist.
“How is she?” Wilson asked, without wasting more time.
“She’s still sleeping but she’s stable.”
“That’s what you tell me each time I come. It’s the fourth time.” Wilson yelled.
” But there’s improvement although I doubt if she will be able to recognize anyone.” The doctor explained with trembling hands. Wilson turned to look at him sharply.
” The fall damaged her nerve tissues. She has no memory of the past.” The doctor explained looking away from Wilson.
“Damnit!” He yelled, hitting the table with his fist.
” That was not the plan doctor, you know it.” Tiny bits of saliva came out of his mouth as he ventured out his frustration.
“It was beyond my control, the damage was done already.”
” Out of my sight. Make sure you take care of her and get her to fuckingly remember every damn thing.”
“I’m not sure it’s possible. I have no information about the patient.”
” You dare go against my authority?” He rushed as he grabbed the doctor’s collar.
” I will do my best.”
It seems like his statement made Wilson more angry as he punched him hard on his lower abdomen. The doctor fell down on his knees as blood expelled from his mouth. He groaned in pain as he held his stomach.
” Do all you can. Get all the information from him.” He pointed to the huge man with the tattoo of the scorpion.” He will give you the information you need.”
” Take him away,” He ordered.
They were just a few steps away from the door when he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket.
” Who the hell is this?” He asked in anger.
He didn’t bother to check who the caller was, the call ended and he felt relieved the phone vibration was freaking him out.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The phone vibrated again and he brought it out to smash it in anger but the caller ID made him change his mind. It was Charlotte.
“Why did it take you long to answer?” She screamed.
” Say whatever, I’m not in the mood for your silly questions.”
” For a moment I will pretend like I heard nothing because of the issue on ground.”
” What do you want, this time?”
” Antonio is the father of Ariel.”
” What! That’s bullshit!” He roared in disbelief after some seconds.” Where did you get such information from?”
“Antiono’s mum called me few minutes ago, asking if I had a daughter with Antonio , ”
He breathed out softly, Charlotte was used to creating issues. ” That doesn’t prove he’s the father.”
” I thought so, but she also talked about them carrying a DNA test.”
” Maybe he’s suspicious. Hold on, Mia and Antiono were intimate?”
