HOSPITAL***
“Huh!, Someone already paid for my brother’s treatment?” Sabrina asked looking surprised.
She was through with her shift in the Pork restaurant and has come back to the hospital to beg the doctor to commence treatment on her brother, that she was going to find a way to pay the bills, but to her surprised someone already paid for it.
“Yes, and your brother has already been treated, his going to wake up in no time” The doctor said.
“But who paid for his treatment doctor?” Stacey asked while Sabrina looks at him, hoping to know who the person was, atleast to thank him.
“Is something I shouldn’t tell you” The doctor said.
“Why not doctor? Why can’t I know the identity of the person who helped me out?” Sabrina asked.
“Because he doesn’t want you to know who he is…. All that matters is your brother is fine right?”
“That’s true…. I guess” Sabrina muttered wondering who he might be.
“Call me when he wakes up” The doctor said and leaves and Sabrina sits beside her brother caressing his hair.
“Who could be the anonymous person Sab?” Stacey asked.
“I have no idea Stacey, But what matters is my brother will be fine” Sabrina said caressing his hair softly.

How about Empire High? They usually give free scholarship to the less privilege every new session, all you have to do is take the scholarship exam” Helena said.
“Really Mom? With this empty skull of mine that can take in anything? How can you expect me to write an exam when I don’t even know the alphabet that comes after Q?” Paige said.
“That’s because you don’t want to learn”
“Mom, School is meant for those who have the brains, not for a coconut head like me, I better off helping you out” Paige said smiling and Helena sighs.
A car pass by and splash pothole water on Helena.

“Let it just slide Paige, let’s just go” Helena said.
“No mom, she deliberately splash water on you, So she has to apologize…. Apologize to her when my madness hasn’t yet loaded” Paige said.
