"Linda, are you off work yet?" Mika's familiar voice came over, sounding kind of tired.
"Yes, Dad," Linda said. "I planned to call you when I am back home. I'll be there soon. I just got off the bus. How is my mother?"
"She is fine, don’t worry. The doctor said she will be okay after surgery." Mika told her.
"That's great." Linda finally felt relieved.
Mika said, "Your friend came today. She found the best surgeon for your mother. She said the surgeon is an expert in this surgery with 30 years of working experience. She also brought 50,000 in cash."
"My friend?" Linda stopped, startled, "Which friend?" She didn't remember having such a rich friend.
"Her name is Catherine."
Catherine went to Forewood?
Linda quickly returned to her senses. "What did you just say? She brought you 50,000? How much will the operation cost? Why did she bring the money over?"
"It takes 40,000," Mika told her. "Now with the new surgeon, it may cost less than 40,000. Because of Catherine, we’ll get a discount."
"Why did she take so much money over?" Linda was very upset and anxious, "Did you take it?" She didn't want to owe others too much!
"I chased downstairs to pay her back, but she refused. She asked you to pay back the money you borrowed." Mika was heartbroken, "I thought the 40,000 was your savings..."
Savings?
How could she, a new graduate, have so much savings?
"Linda, I just transferred 40,000 dollars to you. Check it out." Mika said, "She said you borrowed it from your new boss. Pay it back, Ms. Collins said she doesn’t need the money and you cannot pay it back. Of course, we won’t take it for granted. But at least, you’ll have more time."
"Where's her? Is she still there?"
"She has returned to Arkpool City."
