I tried to persuade the doctor if it is okay to move Davis today instead. I have been feeling restless in the pit of my stomach about the whole thing and who knows what can happen again if he spends another night here. My biggest concern is how did Armani find out and I kept on wondering if he had anything to do with this thing. Unfortunately, I can't find answers to my question and I can't even confront Armani not to talk of questioning him because it will only get me into trouble. The least I can do for Davis is get him out of here and that is exactly what I did.
The doctor gave him a pain relief that will help him till we get to wherever we are going.
I didn't bring my car along with me because it was Armani's driver that dropped me off in the morning, making it hard for me to get him out.
I beged a nurse who seems to be extremely friendly to assist me in getting Davis out of the hospital so that I can call for a cab.
I gave the driver the address of our family's hospital. Even though Davis is against it, that is the only place I know that they can provide him a better treatment.
I make sure he was comfortable in the Vip room that was given to him before I say my goodbye.
"Davis, as much as I'd love to stay with you, I have to go back home to avoid Armani's wrath." I explained.
"It's fine, I can take care of myself. He said with a small smile. Thanks for showing up, it means a lot to me."
"You are welcome."
I begged the nurse that was told to attend to him to take care of him while I am away, and I gave her my number in case of an emergency.
By the time I got back home, it was already dark and Armani had gotten home.
I went into the kitchen to fetch something to eat. Turns out I didn't eat anything all day long. I was too busy looking out for Davis to
eat.
Jenny walked into the kitchen, looking worried. I guess she doesn't know am back.
The conversation I had with Hailey last night suddenly rushed back into my head, making me wonder what secret Jenny is hiding from me. What did she know that can save me from my misery that she refused to say?
Do I really have the right to hate her, when my father is the reason behind my predicament.
I don't know how long I stared blankly into space until Jenny's voice snap me back into reality.
"I didn't know you are back." She said, trying to start a conversation.
"I just got back and I'm starving."
"Your food must have been cold by now, let me microwave it for you."
I stood behind her in silence as my mind wandered off, contemplating whether or not I can trust Jenny.
"How is your brother?" She asked, breaking the silent.
I didn't tell her where I was going in the morning, how did she know I went to visit my brother? Is she spying on me?
"He's fine" I answered casually, not wanting to give her further details.
"Armani told me about it when he came back from work, she explained."
How close is she with him? If they are that close, how much did she knows?
Maybe you are overthinking it,my subconscious mocked me.
I took my food in her hands and went to the dining to eat.
She followed closely behind me like there is something she needed to know and it's starting to piss me off. But then again, I have to remind myself not to get mad at her or show it. "Where is Hailey?" I tried to break the silent because it eating me up.
"She has gone back to school. She left immediately after you in the morning."
"I didn't get to thank her for yesterday."
" I am sure she knows you appreciate her."
I finished my food as fast as I can so as to take my shower and have a long rest. I feel so tired right now.
"Good night, Jenny" I give her a side hug and walk towards my room.
I was stopped midway by Armani when he suddenly came out of his office.
"Hey" I greeted.
"Are you just coming from the hospital?"
"Yes" I answered curtly.
"I sent my driver to go back and pick you up, they said you have left already. Where did you go?"
"Hmm, Davis wasn't comfortable at that place so I had to switch his hospital."
"Oh, I see..." He said dismissively.
"Hmm, he told me about what happened. Thank you for telling me about him."
"Are you trying to ask me something?"
Caught! My subconscious mocked.
"No, I was just wondering if Father has anything to do with Davis and how you found out about it. Don't get me wrong, I am not suggesting anything, I am only asking out of curiosity."
"I don't have any answer to your questions."
What was I expecting? That he will start narrating what happened to me? Of course not.
I looked down sadly. It hurts to know that Davis had to go through that and I feel like it has something to do with Armani and his father. If it were to be Michael, I wouldn't have care to know what happened to him but Davis is the complete opposite. Yes, he is stubborn and he rarely shows the good side of him, but he is a good man.
Armani take a last look at me and said "sometimes, it's better to be left in the dark." He didn't spare me another look before he went into his room.
I sigh inwardly and went into my room too.
Dwelling on everything will only give me headache and Panic attack. Maybe I really shouldn't dig into things for my own sake.
I went into shower and let the cold water run down my spine.
I needed it.
Once I was done, I retired for the day.
What a long day, I thought to myself.
