Carlos was not surprised that Javier came to Salamonsa.
Halfway through, the answer was:
-Paso.
Nilson agreed and hung up.
Even if he passes and Javier leaves immediately, it will be at least five days before he gets here.
After hanging up the phone, Carlos decided to make a trip to the hospital and made a point of going upstairs to check on the girl before leaving.
The girl was lying on the bed, her back to him, on her side and her head buried under the covers.
-Dear, you heard what we just said, didn’t you?
As he turned to go upstairs, he heard the door to his room close and wondered if it was Alba, and as he saw the girl curled up under the covers, he knew he must have just gotten up….
She sleeps moderately, never burying her head under the covers….
The woman under the sheets did not move and Carlos let out a sigh.
-Micaela, if you want to cry, cry in my arms….
Soon after, Micaela turned around to look, voluntarily lowering the sheets to look, her eyes reddened and so obviously stained with tears….
Carlos’ heart skipped a beat and he stroked her cheek.
-My dear, remember that our temporary separation is to be together forever.
Micaela’s eyes filled with tears and she sat up and hugged him, without saying a word for fear that if she opened her mouth she would cry first….
Carlos hugged her tightly and his deep voice sounded in her ear:
-At least the direction is becoming clearer, with Nilson and Mr. Nicolas working together it’s a matter of time before the puzzle is solved, don’t worry, eh?
Micaela squeezed herself tighter and tighter in his arms, and for a moment a single sound came out of her throat:
-Hmmm.
A mixture of repressed sadness and some touches of petulance made Carlos’ heart soften, and he hugged her tightly, rubbing her head with one hand, his voice a little more muffled.
-Since you’re not sleeping, why don’t you come with me to the hospital and check on Natalia? You can pick Mike up on the way back.
It’s good to cherish every minute together…
The woman broke away from him and whimpered, her voice a little hoarse.
-Good.
Carlos got up and went to the checkroom to get the girl’s clothes and sat down, his eyes a little deeper and a smile on his mouth.
-I’ll help you change.
At last a slight blush appeared on his slightly pale face and unexpectedly he was heard to spit out the word again:
-Well…
Carlos gave a sigh of….
He liked the girl’s shy look, and now the way she was trying to suppress her shyness and offering to say yes had a little more charm….
In any case, the girl fascinated him in every way….
After dressing her, Carlos felt the urge to take a cold shower and took several deep breaths before readjusting his mind and leading her out.
We all left together for the hospital.
Natalia lay in the intensive care unit, her pale face hooked up to a respirator, apparently as weak in survival as the doctor had said yesterday, so lifeless the whole person looked….
The doctor next to him said with some heaviness:
-The drugs to be injected we have injected, sent to the hospital in time, according to the normal situation, even if not awake, he should not be out of danger so far, and, according to today’s test results, there is a tendency of renal failure, which will cause a number of complications, I suggest to transfer him, to a distant place…..
To move away means to leave Salamonsa…
The doctor hit the nail on the head.
There were mixed feelings as they looked at Natalia, who was no longer proud of herself, and listened to the doctor’s advice….
The cell phone in Carlos’ pocket suddenly rang.
This time it was the girl’s cell phone, which was also in his pocket.
He pulled out and looked at the number with no name saved for a moment before he remembered who it was, took the girl’s hand and turned around to go outside to answer the phone.
The caller was Enrique, and as soon as he picked up the phone he rambled on:
-Carlos, yesterday you asked me to look for information about multiple personality disorder, I am not a great connoisseur but I have found someone who is of great help in your situation over there, he is a medical genius specialized in difficult diseases and also very involved in brain science in the last years, I told him about Salamonsa and he was very interested?
Carlos frowned and interrupted:
-Get to the point!
-The point is that he is Thiago Andrade and I have contacted him, and what’s more he is doing an academic exchange in Ode Nation and is willing to come to Salamonsa to see Natalia in person.
Nation Ode to Salamonsa is half an hour away by plane.
Carlos immediately ordered:
-Tell him to come right away.
