A little trip cost nothing

“Eat more you need to regain more flesh you look pale,like a vampire” Aria said adding more food to her plate.

“I would prefer a zoombie”scar answered as their eyes met,a shiver ran down Aria's spine gosh she can never get used to this cold gaze.

scar froze as a sharp pain tore through her abdomen,accompanied by a splitting headache,she gasped one hand on her abdomen another on her head as she slowly slide to the floor.

“Fight,fight,fight,fight”the chants grew they wanted blood she'll give them a free show,she studied her opponent,first law of winning is understanding your enemy,you should know them as much as you know yourself to be able to predict their next move.

she steadied herself,they were both injured and weary,her opponent struck first she didn't attack just defended,she dodged strikes keeping herself centered,soon her opponent grew tired with a swift kick connecting to her jaw she knocked her down.

“Scar,scar,scar, scar, scar” the chant was thunderous,she fell on her knees gasping for breath,broken once again but alive.

She opened her eyes staring straight at the crucifix on the bedside,oh just so nice,she passed out again, stressing the poor woman,she cursed herself as she took her bath.

“What are you doing here”the voice asked sternly,she didn't raise her head,

“Taking care of these pretty babies”scar answered as she continued her transplanting.

“You are sick,stand up and go back home,not home I'm taking you to the hospital” Aria said her voice filled with worry.

Scar stood up”I don't want to”

she packed her tools and left leaving the older woman in concern slowly morphing to anger.

scar laid curled in the bed the pain is much,to live is hard,to die is harder,there was a gentle knock on the door.

“Come in”she said sitting up,as Aria stepped in,she sat close to her holding her hand.

“How are you feeling now” she asked her voice with concern.

“Fine”scar answered coldly.

“Seriously fine,you are anything but fine,scar people who are fine don't lose conciousness four times in just two weeks, they don't scream and cry in their dreams,they don't constantly feel pains”

Scar lips curled upwards as their eyes met concern and cold.

“So what I'm not fine,I'm dying what are you going to do”

“I had a daughter,she's dead,was falsely accused,sent to jail she never came back,I just can't watch another girl I could save die in front of me”she squeezed scar's palm as she said it.

“You've done enough,you feed,cloth, shelter me,and I sincerely appreciate,you don't need to go an extra mile, you've already done enough and thank you”

“Scar, allow me to be a mother once again is that to hard to ask”

“I'm not replacing any dead girl”she said coldly removing her hand from Aria's

”and my mother is dead”

Then she turned over pulling the duvet over her head, Aria stood up her expression visibly hurt,with one last glance the older woman left the room.

  

Scar sat before the doctor “your test results will be out in two days,for now take care of your health and don't forget to take your drugs,eat healthy,no need to talk much I'm sure mon will do that for me”the doctor said.

Scar looked at him surprised he should be in his early thirties,with brown hair and brown eyes,he looks like someone you can meet in a Subway and trust immediately.

“You are her son”scar asked still surprised.

“Yeah she didn't tell you”he asked.

“No she didn't she just sent me over with this letter, nothing more”

Scar placed an envelope on the desk,he picked it and opened it,a smile lighting up his features as he read the contents.

“Seriously,she said I've abandoned a lonely old woman, Aria is anything but old,that sly woman,well lucky her my shift will soon be over,and I'll be taking you home just as she requested”he looked at her with a smile,is he always smiling,she thought.

“Sure I'll just go get the drugs from the pharmacy”

Scar walked out with her prescription,well she had to come since Aria won't let her be ,what hurt can a hospital trip cost,but of course it would cost a lot.

She turned a corner as she bumped into someone their eyes met as recognition flashed in his eyes.”li…sa”he called in shock,she fixed her face cap properly, spared him a single glance,then she walked away her expression blank.

Damian shivered as he rushed to his car,he picked his phone as he dailled a number.

“Damn bro she's back,I saw her with my two eyes,she stared at me blankly like she lost her memories she looked like she's been through a lot man”he got in and drove off.

     Cindy dropped her bag on the desk as she hugged Ethan he was facing the glass wall watching the bustling street beneath,he turned with a smile.

“How are you today” he asked her a hand wrapping round her waist.

“Fine just went for some wedding shopping,still can't believe we are getting married”she said looking at him dreamily.

The moment was cut by a phone ringing , Ethan picked the call,

“Where”a pause.

“You serious”

He turned to Cindy as the call ended,

“Cindy you said you wanted to see your sister who put to bed at the hospital right,saint ….”he seemed to have difficulty remembering.

“st Catherine of sienna”she asked wondering why he's suddenly interested.

“Let's go see the baby”Ethan was already on the move.

Cindy picked her bag following him closely.

“Hi pretty”

Scar looked up to see Domnic,he's ditched his scrubs, dressed in just jeans and t shirt,he looked younger,she stood up as they walked into the lobby.

“Thanks for staying with my mom”

Scar scoffed he's obviously looking for anything to talk about.

“She took me in when I had no one not the other way round”

“Yeah I still appreciate knowing there's someone in the house with her puts me at ease”she looked at him.

“Is that why you never came to see her in the past two weeks I thought she had no children”Domnic looked away embarrassed.

“Just the house holds too many memories,you heard about Summer,it just hurts,and mom won't leave the house,the farm and farmhouse,defines her life,after dad passed away it held her together”

Scar felt the pain raw in his voice,she held his hand to give him a sense of comfort.

They walked out coming face to face with them,Cindy hand wrapped round Ethan's arm, looking like every couples dream,she squeezed Domnic's palm instinctively,her eyes went colder as her face remained emotionless.

Cindy gasped at the person before her as she held tighter to Ethan's arm,her face turned pale, Ethan looked amused as he smirked.
