Chapter 454 - Maximum Of One Week (1/2)

At Life Hospital

Cali got her tests done and then after two days went back to the hospital for the result of her CT scan and followed up with a check-up with Dion. She forgot about it but Dion kept on calling her to go and see him.

”How come you're such a nagger doctor.” Cali mumbled as soon as she entered Dion's clinic. Dione heaved a long sigh seeing her. He had a long face and looked very worried while looking at Cali.

”Did you keep a log of how frequent you are having a headache and rate the intensity and how long it lasted? And how often do you forget things in a day?” Dion started and Cali grabbed the pad Dion gave her.

”Here doc.” Dion looked at it with a serious face. He rarely accepted patients since he was more focused in running the business but Cali was a special case. He forwarded her result to her sister as well to hear her comment.

Cali pouted her lips and mumbled, ”You're making me nervous with that serious face of yours. Is it that bad?”

Dion paused for some time and looked at Cali.

”Cali, I'm sorry but we saw a clot in the CT scan.” Dion started and showed her the picture while he explained everything to her.

Cali was stunned when she heard the details and felt really sad for the strange turn of events. She had barely started living her life. Imagining the sad faces of her grandfather, nanny Shine and specially Rui made her feel depressed.

”Are you saying that there's also no assurance of being normal once you operate and remove that clot?” Cali whispered.

”It's a fifty fifty chance, Cali.” Dion replied. His eyes were full of sympathy for the sad result he had to relay to a good friend.

Cali glanced at the ceiling trying to hold back the tears that were filling in from her eyes. She could imagine the worried face of Rui in front of her eyes and that broke her heart. She felt her whole world crumble at that moment.

”So if I don't get the operation done I will die? Basically, if I want to have another chance to live… I need that operation, but still there's a fifty percent possibility that I might have extreme side effects like memory problems impaired speech, coordination, balance or worst won't live, die as well along the run?” Cali murmured, stuttering.

”Cali, please don't lose hope. My sister will do the operation on you and I'm sure

Everything will be fine Cali,” Dion comforted.

”Can you keep this up to you please Dion? I mean from Rui? Please don't tell him about this… I beg you.” Cali hysterically pleaded.

Dion did not answer and kept staring at her, so Cali grabbed his hands and gently pressed it while she kept on begging him to keep it a secret from everyone, especially Rui.

”Please Dion… Let me be the one to tell it to Rui?” Cali repeated.

”Alright I will not say a word to Rui but your grandpa should at least know about it today itself.” Dion insisted.

”Alright you can tell my grandpa about it but not to Rui. I will also talk to grandpa not to tell Rui. Promise me Dion!”
