Chapter 8: Revealed and Revealed
"What is it?" Trish asked her curiously.
"Well, I know I shouldn't be feeling this because I'm with John." She stopped and kicked a stone with her flats.
"Spill it out already. We won't tell anybody." Amy said impatiently.
"Well…" she said but stopped again, thinking of how to tell the girls about it.
"How many times have you said the word 'well'?" Trish poked her side.
"Alright, alright! Well, at breakfast today. When the three of us were talking and discussing whether John should have a check up or something, I noticed Randy kept looking at me. And when he left, he winked at me and I felt butterflies in my stomach. I think I'm attracted to him, but it's so wrong! I mean he's John's best bud!" she exclaimed exasperatedly and shut her eyes close.
"I don't know what you are worrying about." Trish said finally and the two other divas looked at her intently.
"Huh?" Stacy asked, her expression puzzled at what Trish just said.
"Yeah, huh?" Amy agreed.
"Well, you said you're attracted to him." Trish repeated what Stacy said earlier. And Stacy just nodded and waited what Trish is going to say next. "You don't have to worry, it's just an attraction! It's not like you're cheating on John because you're attracted to his best friend." Trish explained. Stacy kept quiet and looked at her feet while walking.
"Yeah, I guess you're right!" she said finally and raised her chin high.
"Let's just go shopping!" Amy exclaimed.
"Wow! I didn't know the mall is so near to the hotel!" Stacy said when she realized they are now standing in front of the big structure. And the three of them went inside and started their shopping.
Meanwhile, John was on his way to the doctor in his Ferrari 612 Scaglietti. It was still early so he was sure that he'd be the first patient in the doctor's office. Which is good, John thought, he'll get out of the hospital early. When he reached the hospital, he immediately parked his car in the parking area and went inside. He looked for the floor and room number of the doctor's clinic in the directory. When he found it he took the elevator and went to Dr. Parker's clinic.
"So Mr. Cena what do you want to see me about?" the doctor asked him and John explained what was happening to him the past days.
"I've been feeling dizzy all the time. And I have a hard time to breath." He said as Dr. Parker slid his stethoscope onto his chest.
"Go on… Take a deep breath…" the doctor instructed him and John followed. "So what else have you been feeling?" the doctor asked him to tell him more.
"And just this morning, my nose bled for no reason." He said.
"I would suggest that you undergo several tests to determine what is wrong with you." The doctor said as he was writing in his prescription tab. He handed a piece of paper to John.
John went out the clinic and proceeded to the front desk and handed the prescription tab. A nurse motioned for him to follow and John followed the nurse inside a room. A medical technologist immediately attended to him. And the medical technologist took 15cc of blood sample.
"The result will be out after an hour, Mr. Cena." The medical technologist told him.
"Then would you kindly forward the result to Dr. Rowlands? Thank you." He said and went out the room. He stayed in the hospital cafeteria, thinking what the result will be. And once again he lost his appetite of his food. He just played with it the whole time.
'An hour has already passed maybe the results are already in Dr. Rowland's clinic.' He thought to himself as he got out of his seat.
When he reached the doctor's clinic he saw Dr. Rowlands studying his laboratory results. He knocked on the door to get his attention.
"Oh! Mr. Cena… Come in, come in. I'm studying your laboratory results." The doctor looked at him seriously.
"And?" he urged the doctor to tell him more.
"And it shows that you have decreased red cell and platelet counts." The doctor continued.
"And what does that mean?" he asked, his heart beating faster in the minute.
"It is really low. Though I can't be sure of what is wrong with you. I'm still waiting from the other test results. Such as staining of cells with various chemical dyes to help me examine their appearance, analysis of molecules on the surface of the cells, and analysis of the cells' genetic material, collected from your blood sample." The doctor continued to tell him.
"Will it take a long time?" John asked again, referring to how long the results will come out.
"Just a few minutes from now…" the doctor said while looking at his wristwatch. John waited patiently inside the office when a piece of paper was ejected from the fax machine.
"Ah, here it is." He said as he stood up to get the piece of paper that contains the results. He returned to his seat and started to study the results. His face was really serious that it scared John a bit.
'Doctors are always serious.' He thought to himself, in attempt to calm his nerves down. When the doctor finally put the results down, he removed his glasses and stared at John.
"What does the results say?" John asked nervously.
"I'm sorry to inform you Mr. Cena but based on our findings, you have leukemia." The doctor said calmly.
