Chapter 6:

Can love give you a second chance?

Love's conundrum


After Maya's final mission to protect Salam, I treated her wounds with the elixir of life, but not with intravenous or navel injections - directly into the intestine when she was shot by pineal bullet after taking her written and electronic permission - but by immersing in the fluid itself...The cure rate was over 300% and was an unparalleled success. That good night I invited Maya to dinner . I chose a brown suit with a white shirt and robots also came with me. I stood near the gate of the restaurant watching the floating screens that talked about the development of the city.

"I apologize for the delay, doctor... ".

"No problem... ".

I looked at the desired girl, she was shining in a long sunflower dress with a grayscale furry coat and black sandals. She braided her hair, gathered it backwards, and wore a number of jewellery around her neck, wrist and earrings. She looked like a gold in its expensive and freshness.

"After you, miss...!"

I opened the door of the restaurant for her to enter, she thanks me with blushing face. How much I love her politeness, respect and humility despite her high status. The menu was floating above the table top, and each of us had to tap the screen and select the dishes he wanted. The young woman chose a plate of meat grilled with seaweed, pickles and a glass of water. I ordered a beef sandwich with cheese and potato slices with a glass of mango juice. Maya was shy as some of the attendees were taking selfies – without me appearing. I love the way she looks when her face is blushed , innocent red and shy.

"It seems... L... It's a... D.... Date... ".

"I don't know what to say... You look beautiful as usual. ".

"Thank you... And you also look elegant after you decided to take care of your hair. ".

My face reddened and I looked down in shyness... She is right, today I did my hair to get her satisfaction and this is something that really pleases me...! .

"I have good news for you."

"What are they?! ".

"The elixir of life has finally succeeded... Your last wounds have healed more than 100 percent."

The robots displayed three-dimensional graphs that support what I am saying.

The scarlet cat rose up in joy:

"Really...?! So we're here to celebrate..?! Hooray! Finally...! You succeeded, doctor...! ".

I felt indescribably overjoyed and I saw happiness on Maya's face. We ate happily and chatted about the restaurant at times and about my work at other times. It was a night I've always dreamed of.

Maya, "Doctor... Can you put the elixir of life to one last test?! ".

Dr. Adnan "Good idea... I really like that. ".

"I have hybrid comrades who are looking forward to treatment with it. Their lives will be turned upside down if the treatment works... I bet on this. ".

"May I know the identity of these comrades...?! ".

"You'll know soon."

We left after we paid the account sharing after Maya insisted on paying too... We went back together to Salvator and it was the perfect opportunity for Talal to make fun of me.

A few days later, I had finished my scheduled surgeries that day. I headed to Chef Clark's kitchen to buy something to satisfy my hunger... I have worked 12 hours a day for my patients between surgeries and interviews, and I feel hungry enough. I went into the kitchen and didn't find the chef, but I found a hybrid girl with cat ears and silky black hair waiting for my order to serve me. I felt my heart beating so hard... This is the first time I've seen this girl here. It's new...! .

"Hello... How can I serve you?! ".

My face blushed as I looked at her vivid face until I felt ashamed as she looked at her eyes and clenched her palm on her large chest.

" That. I really haven't met you before here... ".

"You're right. I came to work here by the recommendation of bounty hunter Maya... ".

"Maya?! Are you serious?! ".

"Yes... I am very grateful to her... Anyway, what do you want to eat?! – she shown me a floating screen containing different types of food – this is what we have today from the honorary menu... ".

I hesitated while reading Chef Clark's varieties. But seriously I fell in love with this young woman.

"Mmmm... In the.... ".

"Salsabeel...! Stop wasting time and prepare La Santobrava sauce... ".

A big, bald-headed man said it as he tied his arms angrily...

"Yes, sir... ".

The black cat politely apologized and hurried to carry out the orders of the chef, who seemed to be superior to her . I quietly withdrew from the kitchen but I couldn't only think of anything but just this young woman called Salsabeel...

Robot 4 "Won't you buy sandwiches or meat dish ?!"

Dr. Adnan "I will just buy a ready-made sandwich from the sandwich machine... ".

I bought the sandwich and sat on the ground floor of the waiting room eating quietly. The hospital was peaceful and it was very beautiful. Sometimes we are attacked in the hospital – such as the incident of the little girl Salam – and there is no security , the hospital administrators need the help of bounty hunters. As I sat down, I glimpsed the young woman hurriedly leading her footsteps towards the exit, tears of sorrow waving from her. She was wearing a black leather jacket with jeans and a set of earrings over her ears. She was revealing her lean belly and the silver navel ring was evident that added to her beauty with a Gothic touch. I went to her immediately and grabbed her arm, affected by her tears.

"What's wrong, miss?! What happened...?! Why are you crying?! ".

She replied to me, tears running like a river :

"And what do you have to do with... In this, you... Doctor?! Will you let go of my hand... Please...?!".

Salsabeel flicked her hand to Let me go, but I hurried and stood in front of her:

"Am I the reason?! Am I the reason that made you cry?! ".

"Let ... Leave me alone, Doctor...! ".

Robot 1 "Maybe you should listen to her wish... ".

Dr. Adnan – with a serious look – "I insist on helping you. It doesn't matter if I am the cause of your problem... Now can you calm down, miss?! ".

I took a handkerchief out of my white coat and gave it to her to wipe her tears. After she calmed down, I asked her to go to my office. .. In the office, I offered her a modest cup of coffee from a nearby coffee machine and a delicious piece of cake that looked like her.

Salsabeel – take a sip of coffee – "Thank you for your words and your kind origin, but I have to leave immediately... ".

Dr. Adnan, "But you didn't tell me what your problem is?! It pains me to see you sad in a place where we are not used to seeing sadness... I promise I'll help you. ".

The young woman hesitated a little after standing firmly holding her bag and her body language telling her haste and confusion with confused eyes

.

"Well... I have a brother who had a problem at school and the principal called me today because she would fire him... ".

"What?! I'm sure there is a misunderstanding...! ".

"Well, excuse me... Thank you for your generosity."

I stand up from my seat:

"Can I come with you?! I'll help you as much as I can. That's a promise. ".

"Well... As long as you insist on this... ".

We waited together on the street of the developed city. She rented the BMW economy vehicle and the young woman gave him the location specifications via the wireless network... The driver was generous to serve us drinks until we arrived, but the young woman politely refused as anxiety took her away. We reached the desired school in five minutes... It was a modest elementary school with limited technical services. We just went to the principal's office and found the little boy, Salsabeel's brother in the hallway, sad, and as soon as he saw Salsabeel, he came towards us with tears running from his eyes.

Salsabeel – holding the boy – "Tell me, Mukhtar, what is the matter?! Did you cause problems to people around you?! ".

Mukhtar – wiping away his tears – "No... I did you sister told me... I did not insult or harm anyone. ".

Salsabeel " what a good boy... – she hold him down give him a sandwich that she brought for him – this is for you , polite boy... ".

Then she looked at me:

"This is my brother and he is called Mukhtar... He is a hybrid of the jellyfish breed and our difference is... "

"Adoption... ".

The black-haired woman marveled at my quick thinking as I knelt down and shook hands with the gray-haired little boy:

"My name is Adnan... Nice to meet you... ".

"And I was pleased with you, too. What are these balls around you?! ".

Salsabeel smiled and asked permission to enter the manager to understand Mokhtar's problem. While I talked at length with the eight-year-old about my robot buddies.
