"I won't change my seat!!!!"Krystal screamed into the phone. She saw that many people looked over at her so she lowered her voice;

"Why?"

After listening to Leonard's lousy explanation that he had to give concerning his tattletaling on her,Krystal hung up.

She felt like strangling Leonard. How could he allow her father to upgrade their seats to the vvip section without speaking with her first?

"Were our seats changed again?"

Krystal looked at her side. She almost forgot that Alexis was with her.

"Yeah. Don't you feel that Leonard needs some disciplinary action?"

Silence....

Krystal felt like she was talking to herself. Alexis always ignored anyone she didn't want to talk to and that was alright but was she part of those people now?

"Who are they?"Krystal's eyes followed Alexis's and she saw a black luxurious car. She would have thought it was her car if someone was not coming out of the car now because the car looked exactly the same as the car she brought to the venue.

Krystal ignored the question. She would rather not answer than say she did not know. Why? Because the tree of knowledge back at the Lucas Feliz Teaching Hospital was her. She knew almost everything ranging from medical to social. She could feel Alexis eyes on her so she turned. She opened her car that she was previously leaning against and brought out a card. She raised it up for Alexis to see.

"He put the Vvip card in the car already. Let's go in."She extended her hand for Alexis to take and the latter took it.

They walked to the front of the 'Award Hall', an hall created solely for Award Presentation Ceremonies. The name said everything about the hall but Krystal felt like the owner was just too lazy to find a name for the hall.

When they got to the door,Krystal pushed it open .She pulled Alexis with her to the receptionist table and put her card down on the table. The receptionist recognised the card as the Vvip card so she stood up immediately,wanting to lead them to their seats but Krystal stopped her.

"What if other people came here in your absence?Just show me the way."

Someone else came to the table just then. He dropped his card which was identical to Krystal's own on the table and the receptionist stood up again. She was stopped again this time by a different person.

"What if other people came in your absence. Just show us the way" His words were the exact words Krystal spoke,the only difference being the 'me' and 'us' that was interchanged in their sentence.

Krystal traced the source of the voice and noticed that another man was standing right at the back of the one holding similar card as hers and boy.....his hair was silver. His head was bent so Krystal could only see his hair and the long coat he wore which reached up to his legs.

"What did he need that for?"Krystal wondered.

Everyone here came dressed in a particular manner but he was the only one dressed in casual but expensive coat.

"You just have to use the elevator over there. It goes straight to the Vvip section. If you need anything there's a phone in the section,just press any button and we will be right there. Have a nice night."The receptionist voice broke through Krystal's thought. Wait!!! What was that?

Have a nice night?

Was this some hotel or what?

Krystal didn't know why her thoughts strayed hearing that.

"Of course. It's normal,we are Vvip guests here so she has to say that."She berated her self.

The four of them walked towards the elevator. Ethan in front,Krystal and Alexis with linked hands in the middle and Kyle dragging himself forward at the back.

Few metres away.

A woman walked in the door and to the receptionist table. She dropped her card which was a VIP card on the receptionist table.

"You just have to go straight."The receptionist said,pointing in a particular direction. She didn't bother to stand up even though she was supposed to as she had seen people with superior identity this night and they didn't want her to stand up.

The woman was surprised. Though the receptionist was polite,her VIP card demanded for personal treatment but the receptionist did not seem to mind. She took her card and turned towards the direction the receptionist asked her to go .She noticed a very familiar person going into the elevator so she shouted;

"Kyle!!!"

She was about to walk towards the elevator but the receptionist stopped her.

"They wouldn't want any disturbance,ma'am."

Sitting opposite the two men that they shared the elevator with,Krystal and Alexis wondered what their identity was.

"We are starting the much awaited NMA award presentation ceremony and ...."

The voice of the MC drifted off as none of them in the vvip section was listening to her. The only award they were waiting for was the "Boss of the Operating Theatre" award.

The programme continued while the occupants of the vvip section busied themselves on their phones.

Perhaps because the MC had been informed of the presence of the anonymous big shots,he hastened the ceremony. Twenty minutes later,he had gotten to the highlight of the ceremony.

"Now to the most awaited award..."The MC's voice made four heads look up in the vvip section.

They adjusted their seats and fixed their eyes on the window-like television,Krystal and Alexis wondering why the men sitting opposite them only just paid attention to the program and the men,vice versa.

"The winner of this award once...."

Krystal and Kyle stood up simultaneously and walked to the backstage together with Kyle trailing behind Krystal.

"Do you need something from me?"Krystal stopped and asked the silver haired man who seemed to be following her.

"No "was the reply as Kyle bypassed her and continued on the way to the backstage.

Thirty seconds later,they both stood with some organisers of the award presentation ceremony,each wondering why the other was there.

Unknown to them,the organisers saw them as a couple who came to the award ceremony. They had deduced that one of them was the winner while the other came as the spouse so when the MC began listing the achievements of the winner,only Kyle,Krystal,some members of the audience,and Ethan were confused.

How could a cardio thoracic surgeon perform a brain tumor surgery on a five year old in an hospital that didn't have enough facilities and how could a neurosurgeon perform a surgery that entailed transplanting the heart of a Siamese twins joined at the lower abdomen?

They could sense some irregularities in the announcement.

Soo. the MC himself could see that what he was saying was not possible. He excused himself from the stage and quickly went back stage to confirm what he had been saying .

As soon as he appeared, everyone rushed to him.

"What's the name of the winner?" All eyes turned to Kyle who had just spoken. He felt that if there was really a doctor like the one the MC had just announced,then he himself could not be the winner.He just needed that last confirmation before going back.

The MC read the paper in his hand out.

"Dr. K.J Alexander"

"That's me but i didn't do those things you said earlier"Kyle and Krystal chorused ,then looked at each other, confused.
