"Is this really your grandfather?" asked Marsha.
Daniel nodded. He was very concerned to see Lee. The look of grief was evident on his face. Obviously very different from the Daniel that Marsha knew.
"Besides grandpa, who do you have?" asked Marsha again.
"A younger brother. His name is Jo. I left him with the neighbors." Daniel is getting sad. His mind was actually split in two. Thinking of Lee as well as Jo. He hoped his neighbor really took good care of Jo.
"On the other hand?" asked Marsha again.
Daniel shook his head.
"Never mind. Don't bother him again Marsha. Let's get out of here and talk somewhere else," Rachel said.
Daniel ushered the two of them to the front door of the room. He didn't forget to thank Rachel for helping him. After the two left Daniel immediately went into the room.
Daniel looked at himself in the mirror. It's very dirty. Incidentally there is a bathroom, Daniel immediately decided to take a quick shower. He was worried that if he took a long shower, Lee woke up and found no one by his side. But until Daniel finished bathing, Lee remained unconscious.
Daniel's stomach, which only had two bites of sweet potato in it, began to rumble. He was hungry. But Daniel brought no money at all. Daniel took a deep breath. He must be hungry. He certainly can. Finally Daniel decided to watch the television in the room. His hand reflexively turned on the television and used the remote even though he had never seen it at Lee's house before.
Incidentally, when Daniel turned on the television, news of the bridge construction was being carried out live. It seems that the channel is specifically broadcasting the news. After all, many people say that bridge construction is carried out with special techniques that can build bridges quickly. A large company undertook the entire construction of the bridge and carried out tests of their machines and techniques. Lee said residents were asked in turn to help as little as possible. But Daniel did not know if the job was very risky. I don't know what happened until Lee fell into the abyss.
Daniel fell asleep with his head on the edge of the bed. While his body remained sitting on the chair. He woke up two hours later with a hungry stomach. His stomach started to hurt from bloating. Daniel didn't know how he could survive without eating.
Suddenly the door opened. Rachel came in with several nurses to check on Lee. When finished the nurse came out first and there was only Rachel.
"All body conditions are stable. Head is safe too. Only legs left, Lee should be awake soon," Rachel said.
"Thank you," said Daniel again. At the same time, he heard a loud rumbling sound in his stomach. Daniel's face immediately turned red. He was sure Rachel would have heard him.
A nurse came in with food in a stroller. Some of the food is a bit different. And some are in the box.
"This is for Lee, when he wakes up. While this package and this lunch box are for you."
"What is this? It seems I have troubled you," said Daniel feeling uncomfortable.
"Just eat. Here's a change of clothes. I'm sure you didn't bring a change of clothes and no money." Rachel really cares about Daniel.
"Thank you," Daniel said with a smile.
Rachel was stunned for a moment. Luckily Rachel was able to cover it and immediately chose to leave.
"I'll go first," Rachel said.
Daniel immediately sat down and ate voraciously. After being full, he immediately changed his clothes. Who would have thought that the clothes that Rachel gave fit perfectly and they also looked very expensive. Daniel looks different in that outfit.
"I have to keep these dirty clothes," said Daniel, putting the dirty clothes in the plastic. When he got home, he would wash the dirty clothes and return the clothes Rachel had lent him.
Daniel immediately tidied up all his things. Meanwhile he walked to the window and saw all the routine outside the hospital. The community looks very busy. There are many vehicles and other facilities that never existed in his village.
"Daniel..."
The weak voice startled Daniel. He immediately returned to Lee's side. Turns out he was aware.
"How are you?" asked Daniel.
"Not bad," said Lee. He tried to sit up but felt pain.
"Don't move yet. You need to rest a lot," Daniel replied.
"Where's Joe?" Lee asked.
"I had to leave it at Uncle's house near the house. Because I can't cross Jo with the bridge still like that. But how did you fall?" asked Daniel.
Lee was silent for a moment. He seemed to remember what happened to him.
"When I was helping with the bridge work. I've used their best protection. If I fall, there is a rope that protects you from falling. However, while working I saw a beautiful woman wearing black clothes. Her face was very sad. I saw her smiling at me. Woman it was in the abyss, to my surprise I fell. The safety they put on me should have left me hanging in the middle. Surprisingly, the safety rope broke and threw me off. Before I lost consciousness I saw the woman right in front of my face. 'give me back my husband ', he whispered. After that I don't remember anything," said Lee.
"I hear this is like fiction," Daniel muttered.
"You think I'm joking? That woman is the woman in the cave I told you about. But why is her soul wandering around," said Lee.
Daniel did not understand what Lee said. But he also did not argue. It could be that Lee was telling the truth and it could be that it was just a hallucination.
"You're very well dressed," said Lee.
"This is Rachel's loan. My clothes are dirty. The girl also gave me food, just when I was hungry. Rachel said Grandpa saved her. So, Rachel bears all the costs for this hospital," said Daniel.
"Is that true!?!" Lee fell silent. He had no recollection of ever helping a girl named Rachel.
"How are you, Grandpa?" asked Rachel who walked in with a smile.
"Do you remember me?" Rachel asked again.
"You? Princess Rose?" Lee asked.
"Right. I'm a doctor now. You don't have to worry about hospital fees anymore," Rachel said.
"Gosh, you've grown," said Lee.
"You know that," said Daniel.
"Rachel used to be our neighbor. But because her father worked here. Rachel and her mother moved too."
"I'm glad you still remember me," Rachel said.
"But since when did you have a grandson this big," Rachel pointed.
"I ordered it online," said Lee.
Rachel immediately laughed. "You still like to joke about your body condition."
"Drink," Rachel picked up the glass of water on the table. Meanwhile, Daniel checked Lee's food.
"Soon the bridge and all the facilities in the village will be finished. Maybe I'll bring Jo here, so you get well soon and don't think about the child's condition," Rachel said.
Lee wasn't smiling at Rachel's words. He smiled because he saw Rachel often glancing at Daniel.
