"Will he die?"

I glared daggers at Daniel after asking that utterly stupid question. We were now on the waiting room while Cross was on the ER for operation. 

"Do you want him to?" I retaliated as I crossed my arms glaring at him.

"Heck of course no, sorry, I'm just in a panic. I don't know what to do" he ranted as he went back into pacing back and forth on the hallway. He must be, really. I could tell they were good friends even if they were the opposite of each other. 

I placed my hand on either side of my head as I looked down on the floor and sighed. He's strong. He can do this.

I tried to remind myself. The doctor said the bullet went quite deep, when we were asked how it has come to this we just said he was hit by a stray bullet and  quickly dismissed them so they couldn't ask any more questions and suspect something. Plus, if this ever goes to the police, we will be in big trouble because;

1. Kayasa is an influential gang and I know they have connections here in the Philippines. Right now, we can't trust anyone but ourselves, especially now that many people can be lured by money.

2. They may hack into the polices information about us if we reported therefore knowing where we are ( Thank God my phone was designed not to get track by unwanted guests), speaking of phones I should really tell them to get rid of theirs since it wasn't throughy protected, there's really a high possibility they could track us.They even managed to hack the system of the agency. 

3. If many people knew about what we were trying to find, more bad guys may come after us.  

"Stop it Daniel, it's getting annoying" I tell him, it was really annoying and dizzying seeing him walk back and forth.

"I can't. I always do this when I'm nervous" he replied as he continued what he's doing. I groaned. Fudge.

The door burst open and I quickly stood up. The doctor came out still with on her mask and gloves. I looked at her expectantly and hopefully. 

"Your boyfriend is fine now"

I let out a relieved breath but nearly choked as I processed what she thought I am to Cross. 

"No, he's not my boyfriend but thank God he's fine" I shook my head but still smiled as I let myself loosen up.

"Yes! Can I see him now?" Daniel looked beyond happy. 

"Well, yes, after we move him to his room" the doctor answers with a smile and walked away to take care of some business. 

We decided to go to the first floor so we could pay for the hospital bills. After we were done filling some details and paying we went to find Cross' room. We were about to go in the elevator whe I noticed  there's a group of men who had just entered the hospital. And surprise, surprise, there was the symbol of that gang stitched on their jacket, an orange dragon circling on its tail. 

How amazing. 

Fuck, they managed to track us here .I looked around and spotted that there was a CCTV camera who was like staring right at us.  They must also hacked into the hospitals system. Well, what can you expect from an infamous gang?

I pulled Daniel towards the elevator faster. 

"Wha---

I quickly pointed at the group of guys who seems to be asking a nurse, that was the last thing we saw as the elevator closes. I pushed the third floor button. 

"How did they know? We're dead" and here he go, again.

" I think they've hacked the CCTV's of the hospitals because they knew Cross was shot" I concluded as we waited for the elevator to stop. 

"And Daniel?...." I called his attention and he looked at me whilst biting his lower lip nervously. "....no one's gonna be 'dead' as long as I'm here" I say as the elevator opened and I got out. 

"So what are we gonna do next?" He paced with me seeming a bit calmer than before. 

"We should get out of here" I opened the door to Cross room where he was sitting on the hospital bed. There was an adhesive bandage and sterile gauze wrapped around  his shoulder where he had been hit. 

"Hey..."He clearly saw our troubled and serious faces. "...what's happening?"

Daniel and I glanced at each other as he closes the door behind him. 

"We have to get out of here before those goons get us!" Daniel blurted out that made Cross eyes widen. He looked at me for answers and I nodded at him. Daniel handed him his shirt and  we helped him dress up as he was struggling. We then got out of the room and into the hallway, the elevator suddenly opens and I immediately pulled them inside a room the closest to us. I caught sight of those goons in it.

I opened the door a little to see and I was right, it was them. I looked around the room and noticed there were uniforms of nurses and doctors here. I looked at them and back to the uniforms. They quickly reads what I was thinking and got their own uniform from the hangers. 

After we were done changing we slowly got out and acted normal as we wore our own facemask. Cross and Daniel was dressed as nurses while I was in a lab coat. We walked to the direction of the elevator without turning our heads ever so slightly. I knew they were now searching Cross' former room. 

We entered the empty elevator and when the doors was closing, a hand suddenly slid in stopping it from fully closing. It was one of those guys. He glanced at us for a moment and went it and all of us froze. The elevator slowly descended and the space was eerily silent. 

"Excuse me" the guys suddenly says with a heavy Japanese accent. He fished out something from his pocket I was ready to knock him off when I realized he was just showing me a picture. 

"Have you seen this people?" He asks as he points at the image of us three as we were hopping in the car while they were shooting us. I felt Cross and Daniel froze beside me.

I shook my head silently a little bit rigidly and he just nodded his head. 

"Oh okay" he puts the image back on his pocket. I looked down and when I did the face mask fell. He looked at my face and instantly recognized me.

"It's you!" he was about to get his gun from his back when he was quickly knocked down by Cross with a punch straight  on the face. Daniel and I gaped at Cross. 

"I still knew how to punch'" he says shortly and I rolled my eyes and the elevator dinged signaling we have arrived into our destination. I picked the mask off the floor and put it on. 

The elevator opened and we saw people waiting outside the elevator. They looked shocked as they saw the figure that was slumped on the floor and back at us. 

"Sorry, I had just found out he was cheating on me" I say dismissively and the three of us got out, with them parting for us. Some nodded their heads and some just looked at the unconscious man on the floor with shock.

We exited the hospital and into the parking lot where my car was.  We took off the uniforms and threw it on the garbage bag as we sat on my car. I started the engine and immediately drifted off. Just as we were a few meters away, the thugs also exited the front door of the hospital as they look at our car speeding off. 

"That was close"
