3 Love at First Sigh

Liling drew nearer to where her mom lay motionlessly. Her face paler than she had ever seen it. She knew her mom had High Blood Pressure but this was the first time she fainted due to it. She sat near her mom and interlocked their hands, she couldn't lose her, she got no-one else.

Liling stood and made for the door and closed it behind her quietly. She exhaled and dragged herself to the lobby, thinking of how to tell a nurse or a doctor, anyone at all she could find to help her call her dad. As she entered the lobby, she saw a male nurse, smiling she walked up to him and greeted.

"Hi, my name is Liling "

The nurse looked up from the file he was holding, only to be faced with a beautiful woman, big eyes, round face, deep dimples on both sides of her cheeks as a result of how wide she smiled.

"Uh.. Yeah, can I help you "

He forced himself out of his trance and replied almost immediately.

"Yes, My mom is admitted and I can't reach my dad, can you please help me call him?"

Liling asked batting her eyelashes pleadingly

The male nurse withdrew his eyes from her face and stared at her head, to keep his pounding heart at bay, he hadn't seen such beauty in his whole life.

"Yes sure, you can use my phone" He replied as he brought out his phone from his pocket.

"No I mean, you should.. like.. call him yourself "

Liling tried to sound polite as her cheeks reddened out of sheer embarrassment.

"Okay.."

The nurse replied and started typing on his phone then put the phone to his ear.

Liling was surprised, how did he know her dad's number, but out of curiosity, she still asked.

"You know my dad's number? "

It was then the nurse came to his senses. He looked at her then at his phone. His face turned red like tomato.

"Oh... Yeah.. what's his number?" He asked trying to cover his embarrassment. Liling chuckled as she told him her dad's number, his name and her mom's name.

After three rings, he finally picked his phone.

"Is this Mr Lee Liang"

The nurse asked in a professional tone.

"Yes it is, how may I help you "

"Your wife Lee Ah Kum is admitted in First Concept Hospital, you should come down immediately"

"Okay, I'll be there in about thirty minutes "

Mr Liang answered after about five seconds lapse. The nurse cut the call.

"Thank you Nurse"

Liling replied gratefully.

"Nurse Chang Ming, thank you, but I have to go now, my mom may have woken up"

Liling answered as she withdrew her hands from his grasp.

"Wait, what did you say was your name?"

Liling smiled a little, as she took a good view of the nurse's face.

"Liling, ...Lee Liling"
