Chapter 826: IN THE END, THEY DIDN'T CARE
"You also know where I live?" Alia asked while following Misha out of his office carrying her backpack. This man walked very fast.
"Yes, I know." Misha stopped walking then looked at her. "I have been to your house."
"Oh, yes, I forgot…" Alia completely forgot about that fact. Too many things had happened these past few days, so she forgot some things that she didn't think were too important to remember.
"Or is it one of the side effects of the disease you are suffering from?" Misha frowned.
The question sounded like Misha was trying to mock her, but in truth, he was really serious about this. He was concerned about it because there was a possibility that Mika would experience the same thing. Would Mika become forgetful like Alia too?
"No, of course not, I just completely forgot about it," said Alia hurriedly, waving her hands.
"It's good then," said Misha while nodding with satisfaction and then continued walking.
On the other hand, Alia looked at Misha in disbelief. She didn't expect that Mr. Tordoff could be this annoying. How could her sister like a man like this?
The two of them walked toward the lobby, where two cars were already waiting for them there.
"Will will drive you home and tomorrow, he will pick you up from school. You just say what time you want to be picked up," said Misha.
"Okay," Alia said obediently, but then she reminded Misha again. "Don't forget what I asked for."
"I'll pass it on to Kia, but I can't guarantee if she'll consider it or not, you better not let your hopes get too high."
Alia nodded. "Yes, I know."
And after that, Misha got into the car, but from the rearview mirror, he could still see Alia who was staring at his car while getting into the car that had been prepared for herself.
Among the Lyrants, Misha felt that Alia was much better.
But, for now, Misha was more concerned about Mika and Kia. He just wanted to be beside the two of them as soon as possible.
It was just that, when he arrived at the hospital, Kia was fast asleep and only his mother was there.
"Don't be loud, Kia just went to bed, she hasn't slept since last night and looks tired all the time," said Candice in a sad voice. "I have asked the psychologist to come here, so she can talk, but she doesn't want to say anything."
With Kia, they didn't only have to think about her physical health, but also her mental well being, because after all, she had just been discharged from the hospital and now she couldn't take her medicine regularly.
Even though the dose of medicine had been increased, it didn't really have an effect on Kia, because she was facing a very bad time in her life, knowing that her only daughter was lying helplessly in the hospital.
Of course, it would affect her mental health as well. Google search 𝗳𝘳ℯ𝑒𝓌ℯ𝚋𝐧oνe𝘭. c𝐨m
"How about mom going home first with dad to rest? I'll be on guard here." Misha suggested and Candice nodded in agreement because she also knew that Misha needed some alone time with his family.
"Okay then, mom will come again tomorrow afternoon, okay?" Candice rubbed Misha's arm and looked at her son with sad eyes. "You also have to take care of your health. You've been working so hard taking care of them both, it must have been really hard and difficult for you too."
"Yes, I understand, mother. Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself," said Misha, assuring his mother.
"Okay then, mother will go first." Candice then kissed Misha on both cheeks and walked away from there after strengthening her son.
And after Candice left, Misha took a quick shower and got changed. The change of clothes that he had requested earlier had arrived and after that, a doctor and nurse came to check on Mika.
There was still no change, but her condition was not getting any worse either, at least there was still hope.
And after chatting for a while with the doctor outside the room, because he didn't want to disturb Kia who was sleeping, Misha returned to the room and found Kia sitting hugging her legs.
"What did they say?" asked Kia in a weak voice when Misha came into the room.
"Still the same, but the doctor said there is still hope, don't worry too much about this," Misha said, sitting beside Kia and hugging her body. "We will see progress after getting Alia's medical history, because it seems they have the same illness."
He was relieved when Kia rested her head on his chest and leaned against him. Misha felt that Kia had allowed herself to rely on him.
"So?" asked Kia again after a few moments of silence. "Have you got the medical history?"
Kia didn't know what to expect. Would her family provide it? If what they said about them starting to realize their mistake was true, then they would definitely provide the medical history.
Only, if they refused, Kia didn't think that she would be surprised by the rejection.
"Misha?" Kia raised her head as Misha didn't give her an answer and looked at the man's face. "Tell me honestly, what really happened?"
Kia could see there was conflict in Misha's eyes. He seemed to be contemplating the best way to convey this to Kia, but she just wanted to hear the truth.
"Tell me honestly, what really happened?"
Misha nodded. He would feel uneasy if he kept this from Kia, especially since he had promised to pass on what Alia wanted to tell Kia. "This morning your family came to my office."
"My family?" Kia sat up straight now.
"Yes, all the four of them."
"Including Alia?"
Misha nodded.
Kia didn't expect that even her sister would come. Both her parents and Daniel would not have allowed it, therefore, what might have happened was; it was Alia herself who insisted on going with them.
"Then? What happened?" asked Kia impatiently. "What are you talking about? Did you get that medical history?"
Kia felt that Misha didn't speak quickly while she felt very uncomfortable waiting for Misha to tell the whole story.
But, in the end, Misha told Kia what happened and also how they demanded to give the medical history to Kia as long as she agreed to meet them and discuss what had happened four years ago.
Hearing all that, Kia felt like laughing out loud, she shook her head and laughed.
"Even until the end, they didn't think about Mika, their granddaughter at all and just wanted to satisfy their desire to get some justification for what they did."
Kia felt stupid, she shouldn't have felt hurt anymore when she heard that, but she was still hurt. Moreover, the anger she felt was really unstoppable. Her heart ached.
Even to the end, they didn't care about the health of their granddaughter and also Kia.
It was very selfish of them to ask such a thing.
"Okay, if that's what they want, I'll meet them," said Kia. If indeed they wanted to meet her with the leverage of Mika's health, then Kia would give them what they wanted. "Let's hear what kind of bullshit that they will spit."
"You don't have to do that." Misha cupped her face and looked at her deeply. "After they left, a few hours later, Alia came back. She said that she was willing to give permission to take her medical history at the hospital where she was being treated."
After that, Misha told what Alia asked her to say.
"She doesn't insist, if you don't want to meet her, then it's okay, she will understand and will still give permission to take her medical history." Misha stroked Kia's head gently. "I asked Will to pick her up at school tomorrow. Would you like to come?"
Kia lowered her head and bit her lips lightly. "I'll think about it," she said in a whisper.
"Okay then, now, sleep again," Misha said as he lay her down on the bed. "You need rest."
Kia then curled her body and adjusted her body to be able to look at her little daughter. Mika had been unconscious for over a week and she missed her bright laugh so much.
Day by day, Kia increasingly felt that she was very tired and powerless to do anything.
And then she closed her eyes, feeling Misha's hand gently stroking her head.
She was grateful that she had Misha now and he was so reliable.
"Sleep, Kia…" Misha then leaned over and kissed Kia's head.
========================
Alia came out of her school just as the bell rang and immediately dashed toward the parking lot. She had memorized the license plate number of the car and saw Will leaning against the car.
The man waved his hand at her and Alia immediately ran toward him.
"Have you been waiting long?" she asked.
"No, I just arrived fifteen minutes ago," Will said politely and then opened the car door for her.
"Thank you," said Alia who then immediately went inside, but how shocked she was when she saw someone already sitting there. "Sis Kia?" she asked in disbelief.
Kia was sitting inside the car, staring at her with a soft smile on her lips.
Alia didn't let her hopes get high at all, because there was a possibility that Kia wouldn't want to meet her and she could understand that.
But, now, when she saw Kia in person, she couldn't believe what she was seeing.
"Alia," said Kia.
