Distant Love

It was 7:00am as Chris woke up from bed, he had such a great night that the alarm didn't bother him in the morning.

Oh no, am late for the meeting; Chris murmured as he stood up and rushed to the bathroom.

He took a bath and got ready in a hurry, he went downstairs in a rush, he didn't even notice his father in the leaving area reading news paper. He took his car and drove in a rush.

As he arrived at the office he went straight to the conference room. Luckily the investors are just arriving, so the meeting haven't started yet. He leaned against a wall as he catch his breath.

After the meeting which ended at around 10am, he went to his office and sat on his swivel chair. As he turned the chair left to right having thoughts about what he wants in life. Suddenly his phone rang, he snapped back to his senses and leaned to check who was calling him, and saw it was Nathan.

Hello, how are you Mr. Officer?; Chris asked jokingly.

Am doing good Mr. Corporate.; Nathan replied as they both burst into laughter.

So whats happening?; Chris asked calmly

I have some good news for you, we caught Tim. Turns out he and his cousin have been wanted for several **** cases, and his birth name is Richard Blaze; Nathan answered.

Wow, he is a real mess. Well thank you, i knew i could trust you with this work. Thanks alot; Chris replied as he hung up the phone.

As he rest back on his chair, his phone rang again. This time it was an unregistered number, he hesitated but he pressed the answer button.

Hello, is this Mr. Christian Mark?; a deep voice on the other side asked.

Yes, who is this please; he asked feeling curious.

This is Dr. Diego from St. Peters Hospital, I will like to inform that we need you here ASAP; the man answered with a serious voice

Chris wondered why the sudden call as he took his car keys and went out, he called his fathers secretary(Mr. Wong, who has been with the company for 10years, he is Mr. Marks most trusted friend and staff) and told him he was going out so he should take care of the office.

He took his car and drove off to the hospital.

Upon arriving the hospital, he went to see the doctor, he knocked as he opened the door to the office.

Ahhh, welcome Mr. Chris, have a seat; Dr. Diego said as he point at the chair infront of his table.

Thank you, so why did you call?; Chris asked looking confused.

I have some good news concerning miss Sophie's health; he said with a smile on his face.

Oh that's great; Chris replied as he felt relieved like a bucket of ice water was poured on his body.

So whats the good news?; Chris asked looking anxious.

Well today miss Sapphire was able to.......; Dr. Diego couldn't finish as he was interupted by a nurse

Doctor your attention is needed in room 25; the nurse requested

"Hmmm, thats sophie's room"; chris thought to himself

Ok then. Mr. Christian, i think you should just come see for yourself; the doctor requested Chris as he opened the door.

Ok lets go; Chris replied straightening his body.

As they reached Sophie's room, the doctor opened the door and ...........
