Chapter 40 - Meeting The Doctor
After leaving the royal palace , Aria and Bekora went towards a six star hotel near by . On the way Bekora asked Aria how she was able to meet madam Margrethe . Aria explained everything in detail and Bekora started to laugh . Aria also laughed a little . When they arrived at the hotel , one of Bekora's assistants booked a vip suit for Aria .
" Well then , I will come and pick you up in the morning . After we finish the meeting with the doctor , we can discuss about booking a ticket for your family to come . " said Bekora in a calm tone .
" Yes ! Good night Bekora ! See ya tomorrow ! " said Aria in a polite way .
" Good night Aria ! " said Bekora and entered the car then left .
Aria looked at the hotel from outside one more time . It was a beautiful building and worth of the six starts it had . The entry was surrounded by little crystal like lights . Aria entered inside then a worker there helped her with the luggage. When Aria arrived at her room she rained amazed . The room was like a big private flat and the angles were all filled with gold decorations . That single room had a private living room inside , a large bathroom , a double bed and two couches with a Tv attached at the wall . The TV was as big as the wall page .
" The world of the rich is a total different one from the one I live in . It's so amazing ! " said Aria while looking at the suite .
The lamp in the bed room looked like a giant diamond that had stuck in the ceiling . Aria sat on the bed while looking at the lamp .
' Money sure makes the difference. I bet people like them have never experienced what economic problems are . ' thought Aria , loosing herself in deep thoughts . She remembered the time her family was in serious economic crisis , her father would dink a lot then beat her and her mother . At that time she did all she could to keep her brothers and mother safe by looking them in a room and suffering all the beating by herself . There were times when he would gamble and when he lost he would beat Aria's mom to relieve his anger . Her uncle's wife would encourage her uncle to break of ties with her dad , to leave him be and not help him with money anymore but the money he gave were the only source of income for Aria's family . She had tried in every way to drift a wedge between the two brothers and slowly she was achieving it . Her father was the first one to have success in the family and he helped the other family members to become powerful too but the moment he faced a problem they didn't even bother in helping him anymore . As a result her father became an alcoholic and gambler . In the latest years he had begun to mend his way now that even Aria was contributing too , in the monetary part . Then Aria remembered Aden's face and smile that made all those stressful and sad thoughts fly away .
She got up from the bed and looked from outside the window , the beautiful view of the city .
" Life really is unfair but I will never give up . For my family and for myself , I need to work hard so that we can have a happy ending . " said Aria while still looking at the view .
Despite being in one of the most luxurious suits in the best hotel of Denmark , her mind couldn't think about anything except resolving Aden problem . All that beauty seemed totally unattractive to her .
Mooring finally came . Aria hadn't slept well because of the anxiety she felt about the meeting with the doctor . When she looked at her phone she noticed that doctor Flaubert had written to her and giving her the address and time of the appointment. He had arranged the appointment faster than expected.
' I am impressed how doctor Flaubert managed to get me an such an appointment so fast . He really isn't someone to be underestimated . Thank to him I won't have to wait for six months . ' thought Aria happily when seeing doctor Flaubert's text .
It took half an hour for Aria to get ready and then she called Bekora to come . Bekora told Aria that he was already downstairs waiting for her .
When hearing this Aria rushed downstairs as fast as she could .
" Morning ! " said Bekora .
"Morning....! " said Aria with a half dead look .
After greeting each other both of them entered the car . Today , Bekora wasn't wearing a formal costume , he was wearing a white shirt with black pantaloons and scarf , white trainers and a classy leather jacket . He had a classy style today , not the usual formal one . Aria thought that he was rather handsome when seeing him .
" You look rather tired ! I made sure you had the best room in here . " said Bekora a bit confused while driving.
" No , the room was beautiful ! .... I am simply worried about the meeting with the doctor . You know , to me , nothing could make me feel at ease when I know my family has a problem." said Aria with a warm smile although you could clearly see the dark circles in her eyes .
" Don't worry ! Everything will be fine and you will definitely get a positive answer , I am sure . " said Bekora with a smile, looking at Aria in a warm and encouraging way .
" Thank you for the good words , I really needed them . " said Aria in a bit of a happy tone .
" You're welcome ! "
They arrived at the hospital faster then expected . When Aria got out of the car she looked at the big building of the hospital. She felt a chill through her body . Her legs froze and weren't able to move . Bekora noticed that Aria's anxiousness about what she could hear and the fear of a negative answer had made her unable to move .
" Aria , shall we go ? " said Bekora with a warm tone while going near her .
She took a deep breath and then nodded .
" Let's go ! " said Aria with determination .
' There's no use allowing the fear to block me . I am here already so I should be brave and believe that everything will be alright .' thought Aria .
Aria went to the reception and asked the receptionist to lead the way for her . Bekora followed Aria to make sure she would be alright . They walked a bit and took the elevator cause doctor Endre's office was on the third floor .
" We have arrived ! This is doctor Endre's office . " said the receptionist and then left .
Aria looked at the door for a bit then turned towards Bekora .
" Can you please wait for me here Bekora ? It won't take much time . " said Aria .
" Okay ! I will wait here ! " said Bekora and sat on a seat outside the door while Aria entered the doctor's office .
The office was big and very clean . On the white walls there were some posters of children and a bed . There were also two bookshelf full of medicine related books . Aria noticed that doctor Endre was looking at a file with full concentration.
' Will he really help my brother ? ' thought Aria .
" Doctor Endre ! " said Aria with a serious tone and he raised his head to look at her .
"My name is ..." said Aria but was stopped by doctor Endre .
" 'Aria ' right ? " said doctor Endre when looking at her .
" Yes , doctor ! " answered Aria politely .
" Okay ! Doctor Flaubert told me a bit of the situation . So shall we discuss your brother's condition ? " said doctor Endre while extending his hand towards the chair , telling her to sit down .
Aria nodded and then sat with her heart in her throat .
