Charlus sighed. He did not want to be the powerless person but Hebe was stronger than Charlus. Charlus wasn't against knowing powerful people, but he felt he would be safer if he was more powerful.
Charlus got to thinking. Getting near his source of power. That was death. But where would he find death?
Suddenly Charlus realised something. The hospital. Hebe said she could see the birth of children. But a hospital was also a place of death. Life and Death are truly hand in hand.
Charlus decided to first cook up a meal. He made some spaghetti for Hebe. He then thanked her for the advice and went outside the house.
Charlus suddenly realised that he no longer had a car. Thanks to the incident where he crashed the car, Charlus was left without one. He decided to go back to the same place where he bought the other car.
Charlus checked his inventory. He only had around $40000 left. Charlus didn't want to spend too much money on this car.
Charlus went to the place and saw a familiar person. It was the same person from who Charlus had bought the dodge charger. Charlus went up to him.
”Hey! Nice to meet you! Was there anything wrong with the car you bought?” The Latino walked to Charlus.
Charlus recalled the state of the car when the truck crashed into it. He smiled awkwardly at the man.
”Yeah, about that... I'm going to need a new car.”
The Mexican man was confused.
”Why? Was that car not enough? Or did it get damaged?”
Charlus chuckled. ”Okay... something kind of happened to the car and I can't use it anymore. Nothing wrong with the car though.”
”Okay...” The man said awkwardly. ”Then why did you come here?”
”I want another car now. Same kind of car.” Charlus said.
The man thought for a while. He looked around and spotted something.
”That Camaro has been here for a month. But the price is around $25000. And I can't give you the keys just like I did last time though.”
Charlus sighed.
”Fine then. I can buy it using a proper card this time.”
Charlus took out a card from his pocket. It was a credit card.
The man smiled and then chuckled.
”You... you can't buy a car with a credit card. The limit is $20000 for most cards. And they don't let you buy huge items like this without some kind of... identification.”
Charlus laughed. ”I'm pretty sure you won't have a problem with this though. Why don't you just swipe it?”
The man took the card and went to the small structure near the cars. Charlus followed him. The man entered the structure and went behind the counter there. He took out a machine and put in $25670 into the card machine.
The man swiped the card and the machine processed the payment. The payment was accepted. The man handed the card back.
”You have really generous payments man. I suggest you to get an excuse to tell your parents. And don't involve me.” The man chuckled with that remark and gave the card back. He also took out some papers.
”These are the registration documents. Do you have insurance?”
Charlus shrugged.
”You should get it soon. And I am hoping that you have a driver's license.”
Charlus chuckled. ”Yeah, I got it around a year ago.”
Charlus took out a card and showed it to the man. The man looked at it and gave the keys to the car. Charlus took them and went to the Camaro.
He entered the car and put his hands on the steering wheel. He put the keys in and started the car. He drove it out from its place and started towards the hospital.
Charlus parked in the hospital parking and entered the hospital. He entered the reception area and saw many people waiting for their turn. Charlus walked up to the counter.
”I'd like a check-up, please,” Charlus told the receptionist.
”Yes, one moment. Name please.”
”Charlus Black.”
”Yes sir. Could you please wait your turn? The waiting time is around 1 hour. Also, please fill out this form in the meantime.”
”Sure.” Charlus took the form and went to sit down. Charlus sat beside a kid in the wheelchair. He filled his form up quietly. Once he was done, he looked around. He saw that the room was quite lethargic. Charlus looked at the kid beside him.
”How's your day?” Charlus asked him.
”It's pretty average. What about your's?”
