Do I Like You? (ENGLOT)

7: A Piece of the Puzzle

***

Hey there Nikitapjl, surprise!

***

Farrah was chasing after her soulmate.

She just got back from Indonesia and she can't believe her eyes when she saw that all too familiar figure of Charlie. Then she saw Nesa standing behind her and when her eyes landed back at Charlie, she saw pain flash through her glassy eyes. She mentally cursed when she saw her getting vulnerable like that.

So she ran after her and didn't mind running full speed just to catch up with the athletic Charlie.

She stopped because she lost sight of her and tried roaming her eyes everywhere to catch any glimpse of her. Then she saw a commotion just a few feet ahead. Thinking Char was in trouble, she immediately ran towards the crowd.

And there on the floor, a lady was sat on the floor while clutching her ankle. It was Charlie. She was running in high heels and made a bad step, twisting her foot in the process.

"Move!" Farrah made her way to her and held an arm.

"Don't touch me!" Charlie immediately shoved Farrah's hand away.

"But you're hurt. Let me help you." Farrah gently spoke, pleading her.

"I don't need help from the likes of you." Charlie's voice is strained due to the physical pain she's going through.

"Can please someone call a medic for her?!" Farrah just ignored Charlie's rejection. She's very worried and she just wants to make sure that she's okay.

"I'm a nurse." Someone in the crowd volunteered.

He approached Charlie and kneeled at her side.

"Hi, I am Timothy Chavez and I am a nurse and I will.be administering first-aid to your ankle. Is it alright eith you?"

Charlie nods.

"Thank you," Timothy smiles.

"Okay, first you need to lie down and I need you to straighten out your legs to the ground. Csn you do that for me, I'll help you."

Slowly, Charlie follows the instructions of the nurse.

"Erm, I need something to elevate her foot." Timothy expectantly asks the by-standers.

The attentive Engfa quickly handed him her neck pillow. The nurse took it from her and puts it gently under Charlie's aching foot.

"Okay, now I need something cold. Anything like an ice cold bottle of water."

Farrah's eyes darted to everyone on the crowd to look for anything cold. She then saw some kids drinking to-go cups of Mcfloat.

She approached them, "Give me that, all of it." Her tone was very demanding and as kids who are not aware of the situation in front of them, they refused.

She believes in the power of money and she needed to use it today. Unzipping her purse, she handed one blue bills each to the four of them and snatched their cups away easily because they were too busy at their newly "earned" money.

Farrah's head turned to every corner, looking for a place to dump the content of the cups. When she saw a flower  box near her, she ran to it to dispose the liquid and kept the ice. She now has a cup full of ice and quickly handed it to the nurse.

"Do you have a handkerchief?" He asks of her, unfortunately she doesn't posess one.

"I have mine in my bag." Charlie intervened.
