Chapter 7

Sound of motorcycle engines were heard when ISE went towards the cavernous room full of all types of transportation. From bicycles to limousines littered the very large room. In the area where the motorcycles are located, she spotted all five repairing testing three motorcycles. She leaned back and observed the five of them. She is still quite amazed from the recovery made by Q and Ro. The treatment is still on going, but both young men are now heading to a full recovery. In her mind though, both still needs some rest and recuperation. She just sighed deeply, but, that wouldn't happen given their restless nature. Hence, she took up there offer of services to repair her vehicles as D referred to as the haven. She stood there for quite a while when Q noticed her presence. He waved her over and she went down and approached them.

"How are my babies?" She asked. She closed her eyes and listened to the roar of the engines. "Nice adjustments you all made." She remarked and smiled.

"You just listened." D grinned but impressed.

"Mmmmm." She just replied. She inspected the other two while keen on listening. "A machine is like an orchestra, a tune out of place does not make it a good engine." She nodded satisfied and straightened. "Come on guys, enough for now. Let's eat." She motioned for them to follow her.

"I can't wait to taste the meal she prepared." Q replied, smiling.

"Everything she prepares is mouth watering." D replied, rubbing his stomach.

"The ferrari is next on my list." F declared and looked at D smugly.

"You…!" D sputtered.

"Now boys," Marie interjected before D could answer. "There are lots of cars for all of you to tinker around."

"But, but, but….." D whined. "I want the Ferrari!"

"Have some spring roll you big baby." T shoved it to D's mouth and settled himself into a seat. The group gathered in the garden for their afternoon tea and lazed around to enjoy each others company and their surroundings. Walt cleared his throat and looked at ISE. "Could you please tell your pets to not look at me like they're going to eat me?" He shuddered nervously.

"They will not harm you Walt." ISE replied smiling. "They are just fascinated with you."

"But not to me." He muttered. Marie patted him on the back for assurance.

"They will eventually ignore you husband." Marie assured him with a smile. "Won't they?" She asked ISE.

"Eventually." ISE replied, smiling. "For now, sir, bear with it."

He nodded. "How is your hospital?" Walt suddenly asked. ISE did not reply at once but continued to sip her tea. They all looked at her silently.

"Overrun by Romefeller." She replied. She did not notice the enclosed fists of the five gentlemen. She sighed deeply. "They want the control of the hospital turned over to them. Hence, they assert their presence in every facet of hospital administration. But, the stockholders are bent on not giving in to their demands." She smiled. "That always gives us strength."

"It is a measure of comfort." T replied. "Hear, hear!" He raised his cup for a cheer.

"Hear, hear!" The rest echoed.

"I hope that this government will turn out for the better." Marie stated hopefully.

"Hope so." Walt replied.

"Please let us discontinue." ISE replied. "I want to hear something positive." She propped her elbows on the table and rested her chins on the back of her hands and smiling widely towards Q and Ro who are sitting in front of her. "How are my patients?"

Q and Ro flushed pink and nodded their heads. "Fine!" Both of them blurted out which caused the rest of the young men to snicker. Ro glared at them.

"Is that fine…FINE… or fine that is FINE?" ISE asked, secretly amused by the reaction of the two. She suddenly blurted out, "Why can't you tell me?" She asked smiling widely. "Why? You both looked healthy as a red tomato." At that point the rest bellowed with mirth. D doubled over causing his chair to overturn.

"Hahahahahaha…" D gasped. "Tomato!" F stood up and helped D to sit up. He is smiling widely and looked at everyone. He is secretly grateful that they have known Walt, Marie and Isis Erin. He settled into his chair again and lifted his cup of tea to sit.

"We are fine." Ro muttered while Q nodded his head in agreement.

"I agree." ISE replied. "But both of you still have a long way to go." She sipped and regarded his patients seriously. "Another year of therapy is needed." She declared. "No party breaks gentlemen."

"We promise." Ro and Q agreed. Glad that their doctor is quite a mother hen with regards to her patients.

"The last x-ray revealed that the bones, muscle and tissue have all healed nicely." She smiled over that fact. "That is a good sign." She sipped again at her tea. "Six months from now, I let you handle my ultra light and see if your body can carry out the G-force." D, T and F stopped smiling and just gawked at her.

"But you promised us too!" D whined and glared at her.

"You three will also be flying as their back-up." ISE replied. "Is that satisfactory?"

"Yes!" T and F replied and glared at D, daring him to refuse. "It is satisfactory." D replied in small voice and smiled at both of them. Appeased, T and F settled again to enjoy their cup of tea.

"I can't wait to see you guys to fly those ultra lights." Walt replied. Marie just nodded her head happily.
