Chapter 10
(Stay Away)
"Wrapped it back, I will prepare food for you when I get home."He uttered, packing his car properly.
"We are here sweetheart"Mr Walter uttered, getting down from his car. But he was astonished after Piper was full of blood.
"Aurora"He stuttered, forgetting his daughter.
"I wonder what's wrong with him"Kiara thought about getting down from his car with her back bag. She shut the door and still saw how dad was staring at something. She turned around and gaze came in contact with the nurses. She wasn't sure of who he was staring at, the loud horn from another vehicle snapped her out of those thoughts.
"Daddy, someone is horning,"Kiara uttered, shaking his arm.
"Oh, yes. "He stuttered moving away from the road.
"Old bug"Kiara called.
"That's my nickname, how did you get to know my name?"He asked, still using his other eye to search for Piper.
"Granny of course"Kiara replied, holding his hand but it seems Kiara noticed he wasn't concentrating.
"Concentrate daddy"She pulled his cloth.
"Okay"Replied and carried her.
"Old bug, are you not going to lock your car door?"Kiara scolded, hitting his head with her tiny fingers.
"Oops! I forgot"He smiled.
"I don't know why you are forgetting things which are unlike you"She scoffed.
"Am sorry if that actually made you mad"He apologized again.
"Why are you smiling every minute?"She complained.
"Oh my goodness, I hardly smile at my staff and friends, but I smile at you, Glory, Kimberly, summer and granny. Do you want to see dad's annoying face?" he asked, walking inside the hospital.
"No, I don't want to see your other side, your other face" She pouted, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"We are getting you an injection today,"Collins uttered, trying to create a fear in her.
Tears streamed down her cheeks fluently
"I don't want injections daddy,"She cried.
"What?? are you for real. Oh my gosh, don't tell me you are crying already"He exclaimed, stopping at the reception.
"Am here to see Doctor Murphy" he uttered, petting Kiara gently.
"Did you make any reservations?"the nurse asked.
"Yes, I made a reservation two weeks ago," he replied.
"Your card sir"the nurse asked.
"I'm not the one here to check up but my daughter,"he explained.
"Okay sir, her card and previous receipt"She asked and he gave her the card and receipt.
"I have seen the date you made the reservation, Doctor Murphy is waiting sir"She said handing him the pass card.
"Okay! thank you" he appreciated, and took the stairs.
"Why didn't you take the elevator?"Kiara said.
"It's crowded,"He replied. Walking down the passage.
"I just hope I am not going to get injected, I am scared daddy"she pouted.
"It's fine,"He replied, knocking on the doctor's door.
"Come in"was the voice that was heard.
  Mr Walter pushed the door and walked in with his shivering daughter.
"Oh!, Good Afternoon sir"Doctor Murphy shook hands with him.
"Good Afternoon Doctor Murphy"Collins greeted, taking his seat.
"Her tooth check up "Doctor Murphy asked.
"Yes."Collins replied, raising Kiara's head.
"Am I going to get a n injection on my bum?"she asked with teary eyes.
"Not at all sweetheart"Doctor Murphy uttered softly, carrying her away from Mr Walter laps.
"If he gets me injected, get him arrested daddy"Kiara screamed out as Doctor Murphy carried her away.
  Collins laughed, looking at his beautiful daughter afar as she tried to break free.
"I should use this moment to check on Nova, since she's hospitalized"He thought about getting up on his feet... 
"I should probably call her first and ask her which building and ward number is she."He thought and dialed her number. 
   After several trial, if finally got connected,,,
📞 Good Morning sir"She greeted.
📞 Morning Nova"He replied.
📞Mr Walter, I will come to work tomorrow sir"she stuttered, still wondering why he called her.
📞 Which Building are you admitted to and what's the number of your ward" he asked.
📞 Building Four Hundred and Sixty-four (464). Am in the first private ward in the building.
📞 okay, am in Montero Hospital right now .. I will visit when I am done with the things here, I will visit you"he uttered.
📞Mr Walter are you doing fine"Nova panicked on phone. In fact it was visible in voice.
📞I am fine Nova. There's someone you have been trying to see for a long period of time. I know you have been missing her a lot, don't worry, I am sure she will brighten your day."He uttered.
📞 Kiara"She screamed, almost falling down from her bed. Collins smiled at how immature she is.
📞 Yes, she's here for her tooth check up"He uttered, using his hand to arrange his hair.
📞 Okay sir, I will gladly wait for her "She uttered happily.
📞 Okay"He replied and end the call.
"We are done daddy"Kiara screamed, trying to get herself down from the nurse's hand.
"My princess can now use her teeth to chew meat anytime she wants"Collins uttered, pecking her cheeks.
"Thank you so much Doctor Murphy"Collins uttered, shaking his hand once again.
"You are welcome Mr Walter"Doctor Murphy replied with a soft smile and bowed to him.
"Let's go home daddy"Kiara uttered, getting down from his arms.
"We are going to see someone"Collins wink at his daughter.
"Really!, is it my mommy?"She screamed, almost jumping up.
"It's not Mommy okay,"Mr Walter scolded.
"Okay"She stuttered with teary eyes.
"Should I carry you?"Mr Walter asked.
"No, I want to walk,"She replied immediately.
"Okay"He replied walking out of doctor Murphy's office.
   Father and daughter lock their hands together showing the symbol of love. They were to take the next exit when someone bumped into them.

Piper ran out of the doctor's office furiously. 
"Why aren't the doctors helping, why are they busy today of all days?" Piper cried, using the back of hand to wipe her nostrils.
"I need to call Mom, it's just that she will be worried and that's not good for her , because of the condition"She thought, and had lots of ideas on what to do.
"I should go and get me Adams, before things get out of hand. He should just use his influence to get Riley treated.
  She kept talking to herself until she bumped into someone.
" So sorry" she apologized, rushing her words.
"You should have watched where you are going okay!"Kiara half yelled, pouting her mouth together.
"Am sorry dear"She apologized.
"Aurora,"Mr. Walter stuttered.
"Sir..."She stuttered, looking at his face.
