Outside the hospital gates, Millie was roused from her slumber, her senses plagued by dizziness.

“Here we are.”

With a swift exit from the vehicle, Millie unexpectedly collided with Leon and Lois, emerging from the hospital. In Leon’s hand dangled a small bag of medication, suggesting their visit aimed to tend to Lois’ wrist injury.

The texchanged bewildered glances upon their encounter.

Donned in a meticulously ironed dark overcoat, Leon exuded an air of sleek sophistication. Lois, likewise, showcased elegance in her formal dress, culminating in a harmonious pairing.

Conversely, Millie found herself in a state of disarray, her wet clothes clinging uncomfortably to her form.

As Leon’s ebony eyes fell upon the drenched Millie, a perceptible narrowing occurred.

“Millie, why are your clothes wet?” Lois instinctively grasped Leon’s arm.

Millie smoothed her messy hair and clothes, a smile on her face as she explained, “I got caught in the rain. It’s alright; they’ll dry.”

“You can use this to clean up.” Handing over a fragrant handkerchief, Lois expressed her thoughtfulness.

“Thank you.”

Accepting the handkerchief, Millie began wiping her face, inadvertently revealing strands of hair adhered to her forehead. Tearing them away elicited a wince. A self-conscious smile graced her lips;

embarrassment was her companion.

“Is everything alright with your grandmother? What brings you to the hospital at this hour?”

Millie shifted her gaze towards the inquiring Leon, only to avert it as his eyes met hers.

“Yes, my grandmother’s condition worsened, prompting my rushed arrival.”

“Stay optimistic; everything will improve.”

A gracious smile punctuated Millie’s words. “Thank you for your kind words. I should head inside now.”

A final gaze was cast towards Leon. A suppressed sigh escaped her lips as she bit down on her lip, aching to implore him for an immediate operation on her grandmother. Yet, a stark understanding pervaded her – such a plea would only subject her to humiliation.

With a sense of urgency, Millie departed swiftly.

After a brief interval, Millie halted, pivoting to face the hospital entrance. There, she observed Leon accompanying Lois into their vehicle under the shelter of an umbrella.

Her fists clenched in frustration as she surveyed the departing luxury car.

Her grandmother’s situation grew dire by the minute. If only she possessed something of value to Leon, something to barter in exchange for his intervention in her grandmother’s surgery.
