"Austyn...??" Silva says in shock "What is he doing here?" Silva thought as she continued to walk toward Rogan, Looking at him as if she was asking him. "I- Austyn, it's not-" Rogan stuttered. "...she's.. still with you." said Austyn in disbelief. Rogan watched as Austyn's anger rose, he didn't know how to explain, he was lost for words.

Austyn looks at Rogan, He saw the rage that was building in Austyn's eyes, and it was most definitely stronger than what he saw during their high school days. "I was a fucking FOOL to listen to you." Austyn says before he decides to leave, his eyes shifted to Silva's, The beautifully innocent-looking dark brown eyes he hadn't seen for 15 years. "Why'd you lie to me?" He asks Silva, heartbroken. She looked down, in means of avoiding eye contact as well as the question that she, to this day is still ashamed of.

Without another word, Austyn leaves the office causing Rogan to follow up with him "Austyn wait! Listen to me first-" Rogan shouted "I'VE SEEN AND HEARD ENOUGH ROGAN, PLEASE GET OUT OF MY LIFE ALREADY!" Austyn shouted back. "AUSTYN PLEASE IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK, GIVE ME A MOMENT TO EXPLAIN! Rogan shouted again as he tried to grab Austyn's attention. This is the first time he cared about someone misunderstanding him, he usually wouldn't care how someone misunderstands and wouldn't explain a thing, But somehow... Austyn was different.

"Rogan, I've had enough." Austyn says as he was about to reach the stairs when he felt Rogan grab his arm, turning him to look him in the eyes "WAIT, PLEASE AUSTYN! ... jeez, you're fast." Rogan took a moment to take a deep breath. "let me explain." he continues, out of breath. "What I said about her is true, I do not have any interest in her anymore but-" he continued before he felt a sharp pain under the left side of his chest, Rogan grips his chest in pain, falling to his knees, He groaned in pain as he gripped into Austyn's arm.

Austyn panicked and didn't know what to say or do, he was going through a Rollercoaster of emotions and was not thinking properly. "a-are you okay? I-.. I didn't mean to-" He said as he kneeled in front of Rogan when suddenly he heard Silva shout in panic "ROGAN! HERE-here take this." Silva rushed with a pill and handed it to Rogan with a glass of water, she helps him take the pill and caressed his back "Give him a minute."  she told Austyn. "Do you feel better?" She asks Rogan as she holds his hand, Austyn looks at their hands, Still feeling furious but now wasn't the time.

"Do you need to go to the hospital?" She asked, Rogan lets go of Silva's hand and grips Austyn's hand instead before groaning in pain again, he started to sweat from the amount of pressure he felt. It caught Austyn by surprise but for some reason, he didn't hesitate to hold Rogan's hand. "Can you speak or not?" Austyn asks Rogan as he tried to look him in the eyes, Rogan shook his head 'no'.

"Call someone, anyone. Let's take him to the hospital." Austyn told Silva. "Hey... At least try walking with me. on the count of three try standing up, I'll help, alright?" Austyn says to Rogan who was still in pain, Austyn placed Rogan's right arm over his shoulder and grabbed Rogan's left side abdomen In support to help him stand up. "one..., two..., three-" Counted Austyn as he helped Rogan up, he groaned loudly in pain. "Come on, let's try walking now." Austyn helps as he slowly took a step forward with Rogan. "Silva, does he have anyone to take him to the hospital?" Austyn asks Silva who was contacting someone. "yeah he has a personal driver." She replies.

"let's hurry before anything happens." She says, they followed behind her into the elevator. "we'll go from the back door, we don't wanna attract attention." she informs as she presses the (G) button.

{At the hospital}

"Unfortunately, his condition isn't getting any better so for now, we'll give him a Heparin injection and then see what we can do. He may have side effects such as Headaches, dizziness, and nausea, so he must stay for at least a day until he's healthy enough to be discharged from the hospital." The doctor explained to Silva, she nodded and gave him a sad smile "Thank you, Doctor." she replies.
