One Night Surprise

65

Its been two days since LJ doesn't seen his wife. All he did is drowning his self with alcohol. Sometimes he wishes that what happened to Prey isn't true that all of this is a nightmare.
His parents doesn't know yet. They are in America on vacation and Ramon giving the responsibility to his son to run the company on behalf. Only his sister Lara knows the accident she is fuming in anger to her brother LJ.
LJ begging and asking a favor to Lara not to inform their parents about the accident, he doesn't want to ruined their vacation and LJ might afraid of the health condition of his dad Ramon. He will accept the consequences later he thought. He knows that his parents is excited to their first grandchild but he failed to take good care of the baby and his wife.
Lara agreed to not telling their parents for now and for the reason of their parents health.

He doesn't have a courage to go home where Prey and he lives. He decided to stay in his condo. His sister Lara not wanting to comfort or talk to him.
Sometimes he opens his window looking down, smiling like a fool wanting to jump to end his life but he knows it will never take away the pain it only gives more pain to his parents and to the people who will left behind. He started to throw the things he can grabbed and start to break it.

One day LJ got courage to see Prey but before he can near to the door where his wife at there are two men guarding the door. He knows Prey's dad will do anything to avoid LJ seeing his daughter. He is not joking in breaking the ties with LJ. Conrad is a loving father who will do anything to protect his daughter not letting anyone to hurt her again. Losing a grandchild and seeing his daughter unconscious is breaking his heart.
LJ disguised himself as a doctor just wanting to check and get near to Prey just once. He got the clothes from Austin who is at first against the plan of LJ to wore his clothes but give in but in one condition LJ won't caught disguising as a doctor because Austin knows he will be in trouble if someone recognizes LJ.
The two men looking at him with suspicious.
"I'm here to check the patient." He said.
"The doctor is checking her a minute ago." The man said.
"Really?! But I need to check her vitals." LJ lied.
"Can you remove your mask, I want to see your face." The other man said.
"What?!" The drop of his sweat flow down to his forehead. He wipe it immediately with his handkerchief.
Its so hard to convinced them.
Suddenly the man phone rings.
"Who is calling you?"
"Its boss." He answered.
"Boss there's a strange doctor here he wants to check the vital of Miss Prey but a minute ago it was checked by the other doctor."
"What boss? You want me to check his ID? Yes boss." The man turned his gaze to LJ.
"Show us your ID."
LJ shows the ID of Austin.
The man examine the face on the ID and looking back to LJ.
Only the eyes of LJ is visible because he is wearing a mask.
"Do you think I'm still joking!" LJ said not wanting to get caught. He acts a little angry.
"Go on." The guards convinced with the ID and the little angry acting of LJ.
When he goes in the beeping sound of the machine is the only he can hear in silence.
His tears began to fall when he see Prey laying on the hospital bed.
"I'm sorry I did this to you. I'm sorry!"
He grab Prey's hand wanting to hold her.
"I'm sorry Prey!"
He felt the finger of Prey moving.
He wipe his tears and keeps calling her name.
"Prey?!"
He observed with a little movement of her hand.
"Prey?!"
Prey gently open her eyes.
"Thank God you are awake." He felt joy and sorrow at the same time.
She was hyperventilating.
"Prey?! Are you okay?"
Prey stares at him.
"Who.... who are you?" She mumble.
Her eyes began to close again and a loud beeping sound of the machine starts and Prey is having a seizure.
The two men who is guarding outside went in and saw LJ at the state of panicked.
"Call the doctor!" LJ shout.
The two men got confused.
Why he needs to call a doctor when he is a doctor.
"What are you standing for? Call the doctor!"
The two men then realized that LJ is a fake doctor they rushes to call a real doctor.
The nurses and the real doctor checking Prey's vital signs.
"She is having hard to breathe I need suction." The doctor shout as he tries to stable her vitals.
"No.. no.. She is having a cardiac arrest." The doctor inject the adrenaline injection.
A minute later her heart regain a normal rhythm.
The doctor sigh in relief.
"Thank God she is stable now." The doctor said.
There is an evident uncertainty in his face when he turned to LJ not recognizing who is this doctor he haven't met.
"Who are you?" He began to question.

As expected LJ got caught and Conrad fuming of anger putting LJ on jail by deceiving his bodyguards.

Lara got a call from Austin telling her that LJ was in jail.

"Have you lost your mind!" She look LJ unbelievable.
"Please calm yourself and can you just get me a lawyer."
"Stop going back to the hospital will you! It takes time to heal a wound. How can you be okay showing your face to them?" Lara gritted her teeth.
"Can you just lower your voice."
"How can I forgive you when Prey is still unconscious." Lara began to break down letting her tears fall.
"I'm sorry." He mumbled.

A minute later Lara compose herself.
Their personal lawyer arrived.
He explained that identity thief is a crime and the victim can press charges against LJ.
LJ can get out of the prison if he can prove that he did not have any illegal intention.
LJ may be able to have his identity thief charges dropped if the victim of that identity doesn't pursuing to sue or file him a case.
Since Austin is his friend and he is aware of the plan he will not press charges or file a case against LJ.
