Chapter 744: WHO IS THIS MAN?
Keira woke up because she heard the sound of Mika's crying and this worried her a lot because it was unusual for the little girl to cry like that.
Therefore, she was so surprised to find that Mika was sleeping alone until morning while Kia was nowhere to be seen. Kia hadn't come home even until this morning, that of course scared Mika who couldn't be calmed down now.
Luckily, Keira didn't take long to contact Kia, and as it turned out, Kia was already near the house and not long after that she rushed back.
It was just that Mika was sick now. Her little body was burning. She was too emotional and apparently had been crying for two hours, because she didn't find her mother beside her, but Keira didn't hear her.
Mika had a weak body, and if she was too emotional like now, she would fall ill.
Even though it was nothing to worry about and so far she would only get a fever, but still it made Kia uneasy.
"Looks like I have to take her to the doctor," Kia mumbled, as she hugged Mika.
She herself felt a little dizzy because after the long shift last night and lack of sleep, not to mention she had an exam in less than two hours from now.
But, Mika was sick and she couldn't just leave her like this. Moreover, if this little girl got sick, she would become very fussy and didn't want to be with anyone but her mother. She wouldn't even want to be with Keira.
"But what about your exam?" Keira asked. She knew that this exam was very important for Kia, otherwise she would have to repeat a year.
If she wanted to reschedule, she should have done it one week ago and it couldn't be done suddenly like this. Therefore, Keira could feel the frustration that was felt by Kia now.
"I have to take Mika to the doctor," Kia said in a slightly trembling voice. She was aware of the consequences, but she couldn't leave Mika, especially since the exam would take almost half a day.
Mika's situation would only get worse if she wasn't by her side. It could be said that this was the emotional dependence her daughter felt on her.
"Okay, I will accompany you to find a taxi," said Keira, she then immediately ran into her room to get a jacket, even though she was very sleepy earlier, but now her drowsiness had completely disappeared and she didn't think that she could sleep anymore.
But, before Keira came back, someone was knocking on their apartment door and this made Kia confused, because there were not usually guests this early.
Holding Mika in her arms, she then opened the door and how surprised she was when she saw who had come.
It was Misha. The man was standing right in front of her apartment door with a face that looked hard to read.
"What did you come here for?" Kia asked sarcastically. She wasn't surprised at all when she found Misha knowing exactly where her apartment was.
One other thing that was on Kia's mind was; what else might Misha know? She hated it when other people tried to find out about her, especially people she didn't expect like Misha.
"I heard Mika's cries on the phone earlier," Misha said in a low voice, his eyes fixed on Mika who was still sobbing a little. "What's wrong with her?" he asked.
"Nothing, now leave." Kia was just about to close the door again when Misha held it back. It was hard to fight him when she had to carry Mika, therefore, Kia couldn't close the door. "Get out of here, Misha. You're not needed here."
Misha was the last person she wanted to see now.
But, before their conversation could continue any further, Keira had come out of her room wearing a jacket and carrying a purse and without looking at who had come, she then asked.
"Who is that? We're going to the doctor now, right?" she asked while tying her hair, but then her question stopped in her mouth when she saw Misha's figure. "Who's he?"
Keira approached Kia because she could feel the tension in the air and how Kia's body stiffened when facing this man.
"What happened? Who's this?" Keira asked in a low voice, she was just about to ask whether she should call the police or not. She found it strange because even though he was handsome and educated and looked very attractive, this man kept staring at Mika.
But, before she got an answer from Kia or asked more about him, the man had already spoken.
"To the hospital?" Misha repeated in a voice that sounded very cold, now his sharp eyes were directed at Keira which made the woman feel her heart beating very fast because of nervousness. "Who is sick?"
Misha wasn't sure if it was Kia's roommate, because she looked very healthy and Kia was fine when they parted in the car, so that left him with his little daughter who was still crying now.
"Mika is sick?" Misha asked again because no one answered him at all.
"It's none of your business," Kia said curtly, she then took her bag and immediately walked past Misha with Keira following behind her.
Keira still hadn't been told directly about the man's identity, but it seemed she could guess that the man was Mika's father, but why did she feel his face was familiar? She felt his face was very familiar like she had seen it somewhere. But where?
Could it be because he was handsome that she felt that she had seen the man in an advertisement? Probably a model? Or at some place…
Keira shook her head and reminded herself to ask Kia after all this had settled down, because now Kia seemed to be really panicking seeing Mika was sick.
But, before the elevator doors closed, Misha had stopped them and forced himself into the elevator as well, not giving Kia or Keira a chance to escape from this cramped place.
Then, Misha swiftly pressed the button for the parking lot above the lobby, which now became their first stop. That way, Misha could invite the two of them to get off on that floor.
"My car is here," Misha said in a firm voice, he left the elevator open, while he didn't get out, so the elevator couldn't go down.
"I don't need your car," Kia said angrily, because Misha was slowing things down and she wanted Mika to be checked right away.
"It will be faster than you guys looking for a taxi at this hour," Misha explained again, but Kia just glared at him.
Actually, Misha wanted to grab Kia's hand and force her into his car, but he didn't think it was a wise move for him to take if he wanted to get close to Kia again.
Therefore, he used all his patience to get Kia into the car with him.
"Stay away from the door, Misha!" Kia growled in a sharp voice. "Stop being so childish!" she cried in annoyance.
Meanwhile, Keira could only stare at the interaction between the two of them because she didn't know what to do at a time like this. This was a family matter if she could say to the least.
"Stop being so stubborn," Misha said, his voice calm, even though Kia looked really stressed right now. "We have the same goal to help Mika not be in pain anymore. Come with me."
Keira looked at Kia and then Misha alternately, before she spoke softly, she was afraid that she would cross a line.
"We should go with him," said Keira, who immediately got a fierce glare from Kia, because her friend didn't support her at all. "I mean, our main focus is Mika, right? If we wait any longer, she'll be in more pain, and it's difficult to get a taxi after all."
What Keira said was true, but Kia still felt reluctant, especially when she had to give into Misha.
But, no matter what, what her best friend said was true, she had to prioritize Mika over anything else.
Therefore, although Kia felt very annoyed and displeased, she finally agreed to Misha's request and stepped out of the elevator.
Kia still remembered where Misha parked his car earlier and immediately headed there.
"Who exactly is he?" Keira asked in one sharp breath when she saw the car Misha was driving. She was not a car enthusiast, but at least she knew expensive cars and what was in front of her could be said to be a very expensive car.
On the other hand, Kia didn't answer the question and immediately got in the car. She sat in the back, while Keira sat beside her, leaving Misha sitting in the front alone, which made him look like a chauffeur to both of them.
"Kia, don't you want to sit in the front?" Keira whispered because she felt bad, especially since she couldn't possibly sit in the front, it would be even more awkward.
However, Kia ignored the request and it seemed Misha didn't think much of it either and immediately started the car and drove away from there.
Along the way, Misha called someone and from the conversation, it seemed that he was asking someone to prepare a room and a pediatrician for Mika.
Who exactly was this man?!
