Chapter 14 : Yolika says : it's only the beginning
Note : Sorry for the time it took for me to update . I needed inspirations and I've got them now . I tend to leave spaces before all my punctuations because I find it much neater and also , it's already a habit . So on with the storie !
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yolika and a girl were standing outside the canteen . The girl was hired to perform the deed . A rat like smile splitted across Yolika's face when she said it .
" Mabel , this is the packet , make sure you do it . "
" Well , of course , I am paid . "
" Add the whole packet in . "
" Hey missy , are you sure , don't you know how strong this stuff is ? "
" I know , you need not remind me . "
" A pinch of this powder could already melt quite a big portion of the stomach . The stomach acid would burn off the rest of the intestines . "
" I said already , I know that . "
" Fine then , once she's dead . I be smirking at you through the jail house window . "
" Oh , you're so nice , visiting me ? Huh ? Get on with your work ! "
" Hmph , jai ( good-bye ) . "
Mabel entered the canteen . She was a professional actoress . Her face was contorted into expressions of anxiousness and fear . Pirika saw that and invited her to sit with her group . Mabel gladly accepts . It was all going according to plans . Mabel grinned silently . Pirika happily introduced herself and her friends . Mabel in return introduced herself as a sister of a student here but she couldn't find him , and also got lost . She was very very good at spinning a lie out of empty space . Dumb people .
Later , Mabel offered to get the group some drinks , her treat . She went over to the drinks stand and bought five cups of colas , one for herself . After that , she went over to a corner at the wall . Taking out the packet from her pocket , she poured half of its contents into one of the cups , and briskly threw away the left packet . Half of it was already very well enough to kill , Mabel did not want the innocent girl to have a terrible death . Mabel took the tray and swiftly went back to the table .
" Here , Pirika " as she passed the cup of cola with the powder in it .
She later passed the rest of the colas to everyone else . Mabel smiled and acted very normally . Pirika whilst talking with her friends took a sip of the cola and went on to drink the whole cup . The deed was done . The poison would take very slow effect and only effect the victim after 10 hours , and until then when the poison had already spreaded out through the body would the patient feel that she had a fever .
The canteen bell rang . It seemed to be crying out for the little girl who had just believed too much in a stranger and was doomed . Mabel sighed . She then departed the group , taking one last glance at Pirika , Mabel shrugged and left .
Even though Yolika did not see any of the happenings , but she gave a sinister smile when she heard the soothing chime of the bell . It was over for Pirika .

The next morning , Pirika was sick at bed . It was time to go to school . Ren had dressed up and was already heading down the stairs . Then he heard some very violent coughing noises coming from their bedroom . He walked over and slit opened the door . Pirika was pale and lying weakly on her bed . Upon seeing this , Ren walked over to Pirika's bed .
" Ren-kun . " Pirika said hoarsely , her throat was already torn by the coughs .
" Pirika , daijobu ( are you alright ) ka ? "
" Mmm , mmm . " Pirika gave Ren a frail smile .
" I'll accompany you to the doctor's after I return . "
Pirika replied with another weak smile . Then she closed her heavy eyes . The poison was taking effect and Pirika only though that it was a normal fever .
Ren placed a hand on her forehead . It was burning hot . Ren placed a ear thermometer to measure Pirika's temperture . It was well over the dangerous fourty degress . Ren quickly tried to wake Pirika up but to no avail . Pirika was already falling to unconsciousness .
" Damned . "
Ren picked up Pirika and carried her quickly down the stairs and into the limosine . He instructed the driver to go to his private hospital and called his secretary to call on all the best doctor's there . In the limosine , Ren took an ice pack from the refrigerator ( you should know why there is one , I will not say more ) and placed it with a washed cloth on Pirika's head . Ren thought that it was just high fever .
The vehicle stopped at a traffic congestion almost ten metres from the hospital . Ren yelled fervently at the driver to go faster but as he knew it himself it was no use . He latched opened the door and picked up the still unconscious Pirika and ran towards the hospital . Ren ran passed the stuck traffic and honking vehicles . It was a car accident that was causing all this nonsense .
" This is absolutely needed . "
Beads of perspirations trickled down his handsome face . He took a glance at his Pirika , his heart wrenched . Then , the hospital mushroomed out of the street and it was just across the road . Ren ran across the road and was almost hit by a passing car . He cursed under his breath and ran over the hospital's doors . A team of smart looking doctors and efficient nurses were already waiting for them behing the door . Upon seeing the duo , three nurses ran over to Pirika and put her on the already prepared emergency laying bed , then speeded the bed over to the emergency room . The rest of the nurses had already ran over to the emergency room to prepare the materials for the patient and doctors . They had to be fresh . The doctors --- three of them in total , ran along beside the swiftly shifting emergency bed and discussed about the patient's situation and how to cure her best . The one of the nurses took all the necessary measurements and told them to the doctors .
Ren stood by the door and was briefed by the attendent on how long the operation would take and her situation now . Ren's faced frowned in sorrow when he heard that Pirika might not be able to survive . Ren sat outside the operation room , awaiting for the doctors to come out .
" The patient is now in a very dangerous situation , her stomach acids have been over-activated and they digested her stomach wall and now the acids are wearing off her intestines . She might not be able to survive . "
Ren's eyebrows furrowed in deep concern . Pirika had a very high possibility of dieing and he might not be able to over come that .
