Love would be with You~Part 3

I ramble and wobble myself to the Hospital Lobby, hoping i could see him. I want to see you, Ed, where are you??? I keep on murmuring to myself. My eyes are swollen, thanks for the tears that i had weeping vigorously yesterday night. Now, i am really weak. I didn't have a bite of food, not a loaf not even a biscuit since....since yesterday morning. Now i am starving and hungry but i don't have the urge and appetite at all for even a loaf.

"Department of Pedriatics, Pedriatics....Peds." I am murmurning softly to myself while i am glancing through the Hospital Board of Directory.

"Oh...third floor." I wobble myself again into the elevator, gently and nervously press the number three button. Ed, you know, i have been missing you. I know you won't just dump me like that, aren't you?

"Ting!!!" The elevator has reached to third floor and i slowly step my right foot out from it then follow by my left food. Oh Gosh, i feel so dizzy. Damn it, i should have taken the loaf which offered by the nurse a while ago in my designated ward. I mean my room.

Slowly and silently with the help of the signboard, i walk pass doors by doors. Lastly i see it, Department of Pedriatics and Clinic!!!! "Oh ya!!! Thank God." I whispered to myself.

I push the door handle and go in.

"Hello, i am sorry, is...is...is Dr Ed Kan En Tung here? I have urgent things to speak to him." My tears start to well around my eyes area, it seems i have already met and found him but eventually i haven't. I am looking at the nurses with my blurred vision and teary eyes.

"I am sorry Miss, Dr Ed Kan is on leave for...for..." The tall boy-hair cut nurse browses through her file on her table. "He is on leave for two weeks, it's honeymoon leave. Do you have a message for him? I can jot it down for you Miss."

"Arrrr......Emmm, i am sorry, he is married?" I am trembling in fear, the most fearful day in my life has finally arrived.

"Oh ya, he is, he just got married last Sunday. Very sweet isn't it? Dr Ed Kan is a nice and humble doctor." The tall nurse is smiling sweetly at Joyce. She is hateful. I hate her.

"Ok, thanks lots. Thanks very much." I walk out from the clinic and sit down haggardly on the seats available outside the clinic, seats for the visitors and patients while waiting for meeting up with the doctors.

My head just drop onto my lap and i burst into tears.

"Miss, are you alright? Miss miss...." An unfamiliar voice reaching softly into my ears. Of course it would be very much unfamiliar Joyce, you don't even know anyone here, you bloody know anyone here and you are the patient here. Of course it's very unfamiliar.

I look up with my red teary eyes. A tall and fair guy is standing right in front of me, he is with his spectacles and white labcoat. He looks friendly and very much courteous.

"I am fine, thanks. Nothing...just that, i am fine." I replied in soft trembling voice.

"Come, have this..." He passes to me a packet of Kleenex tissues.

"Thanks lots..." I open up the packet with my shaky fingers. Most probably because i didn't have any foods since yesterday morning. I don't have much energy. If you pushed me now, i swear to God that i would fall down awfully in a second without a single warning.

"Are you sure you are alright? You seem upset. Are you looking for someone in that Pedriatics Clinic?"

"Ahhhh.....nope, nope at all. Actually i am the patient here and i just thought of walking around in this hospital to ease my boredness. But too bad, i have got lost because you know, this hospital is huge and i don't really remember things well. That's why i cried because....because out of the sudden i thought of my beloved Labrador dog. I have been missing him very much."

"Oh ok...i see, i thought you are in pain or what. I got scared out of nothing then."

"Well, i am sorry...Emm, actually i am hungry, really hungry. Do you know where is the cafeteria here so that i can get a munch on something? I haven't been eating since yesterday morning."

"Sure, come, i show you the way, it's at the first floor." He gestures his hand on his way, walking to the elevator.

"By the way, are you a doctor here?" Joyce asked out of her curiousity. She thought maybe he would know Ed, maybe he is one of Ed's good colleagues.

"Nope, i am not a doctor...Many people used to mislead me as a doctor but i am not. I am a pharmacist. I prescribe and organize drugs to patients, i mean medicines." He smiles in a genuine way.

"Oh...i see, nice meeting you." Joyce stares at him and at that moment, she misses Ed very much.
