The next thing I find myself doing is going to the hospital the next hour and finding my sister, who had transferred from the clinic she had worked in.
"Scarlet? What's up?" Alex is worried because if I couldn't help it, I didn't like going to hospitals.
"Soryu. Is he okay?" I ask her quietly as we walk together, side by side.
Alex is handed a medical sheet and she passes it to me.
"Soryu will be fine, Scarlet. Although he will be complaining of a headache for a couple days." she chuckles stacking more and more files onto me.
"Is this really the life of a doctor?" I ask. Couldn't help it, curiosity got the better of me.
Alex gives me a sideways glance, before replying, "As real as me or you."
Taking the files from me, Alex opens a door with her employee passcode.
"He is down the hall to the left, third room." she says before walking off.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Entering Soryu's room, I am pleasantly surprised to find the rest of the bidders in the rather large space.
All eyes turn toward me.
"Scarlet?" Soryu says from his place on the bed.
"Yeah its me Soryu." I say walking to his bedside.
I take his hand firmly in mine, "Are you okay? What happened?"
"We were attacked in the shipping yard."
I inwardly cringe, he didn't even known who he fought. "I'll text her and find out if she knows." I hated lying to him, but had to be done. Until the day I am able to reveal myself or they find out who I am, I will have to continue this little charade.
"No, Scarlet, I don't want you involved in this."
I chuckle, "Already more than you should know." I was practically signing my death certificate by saying that.
I smile and leaning over I kiss his cheek, before saying, "Get some sleep."
His eyes flutter closed and I figured that he had been fighting to stay awake.
I mutter, "Seriously though."
"Scarlet?" I recognize my sister's voice from the doorway.
I turn to face her and she has a look of pure fury in her eyes. Shit.
Something must have happened to get my sister mad, because, yeah she gets mad, but never that pissed.
"I'll see you guys later." is all I say before rushing out the room to join my sister.
She was walking with determination toward the ER.
"Alex, wait!"
She whirls around and grabs my arm, and proceeds in dragging me along with her.
She stops in the waiting room, and I come face to face with a man, who I knew would be my demise.
"Lucifer."
