Megan hands him her phone, "Call him now. You need help immediately." She was not going to let more time go by without him getting help.

Roman sighs and he takes the phone with a heavy sigh. He presses the button for the doctor to call and he waits while leaning back onto the bed. After a few seconds the call is connected and he listens while breathing becomes erratic from the amount of stress this was putting on his battered body.

After the call is over Megan sits beside him, "What did he day?" She was scared that things were so bad nothing could be done now.

Roman nods his head slowly and he groans again trying to keep what little strength he has left. He spoke calmly and slowly "He said he's on his way now. He said he'll examine me when he gets here and he'll decide whether or not I need to get sent to the emergency room"

"Thank goodness." She let's out a shaky breath, "Finally you'll be treated properly." She was beyond relived he would get the treatment he needed and would feel better.

Roman nods slowly once more and he closes his eyes letting out a small exhale, "At least I won't be a burden to you anymore or a headache" Roman smiled and he looked over at the time, the doctor would be coming any minute now.

Megan frowns realizing she might have made him feel that way with how she was acting, "You were not a burden...or a headache. I was just worried about you Roman."

He smiles and he opens his eyes and looks over at her, "I know" he speaks softly and he lays down on the bed again as his eyes flutter close from the exhaustion. The doctor would be here any minute now and he wanted to rest until the doctor arrived.

Doctor Ryan walked in with Apollo, Roman's younger brother. They looked the Same, the tall muscular built and handsome face. The brothers had different eye colors as Apollo's was black and he had dirty blonde hair. He was shorter than Apollo too. Megan smiles greeting the men at the door.

"Please come in, He's resting in my room." She was nervous because she had no idea what would be decided. Would she still get paid? Would Apollo waltz in here and take him away without her getting what she was promised?

"You took after my brother?"

Megan nods, "My grandma was a nurse in the past, she did all she could."

Apollo stares at Her, "Thank you for what you did."

"I did what anyone would do for someone in need."

"My brother isn't just someone in need. He is not a simple man, he is dangerous." Apollo said with a grin.

"I know. He was still hurt." Megan says ignoring Apollo's statement about Roman. 

"Shall we go inside now?" She quickly says changing the subject quickly.

Roman lays in bed with his eyes closed as he listens to the voices coming inside. He hears his younger brother speak and he smiles slightly. Roman's breathing begins to become a little erratic as he waits for the doctor to examine him, he was feeling a little uneasy from being in this state in front of his brother also he was starting to feel lightheaded again.

"Brother. Are you okay?" Apollo rushed to his side, "We were all worried brother, why didn't you call us earlier?" Apollo had brought along 10 armed men. They were surrounding the area to make sure nothing happened to him again.

Roman shakes his head slightly as he struggles to speak properly. He has difficulty responding right away to his brother's concerns due to how lightheaded he was feeling right now, "It's fine...I'm fine...just exhausted." His breath was getting erratic again and he could tell he was about to pass out from exhaustion again.

"You dont have to worry. I have been handling everything. I also got you a spot in a private hospital." 

Hearing this Megan's heart sank. She didn't like the thought of Roman leaving her for some reason.

Roman nods slowly as his eyes begin to flutter, he was going to pass out again and he knew it. The exhaustion was starting to overtake every aspect of his body and he could feel that he was starting to slip back into unconsciousness, "I trust you...just make sure she doesn't worry too much..." He spoke softly as he closed his eyes and started drifting off to sleep.

Apollo turns to Megan, "I'll be taking my brother now. Thanks for your help." He looks at his brother, "My brother will surely get better soon and crush his enemies."

Megan didn't say anything. She didn't know what to say. Roman was sick and he would be getting the help she wanted him to get. She didn't get why she felt sad.

"Okay then." She forced herself to say. This was not a farmiliar feeling. She really didn't like it.

Roman smiles softly as he listens to the two speak, he was glad his brother was stepping in and helping him out. His body was feeling heavy again and he felt like he was about to pass out a handful of times in just the few minutes that the doctor was examining him. He had to keep his eyes open if he didn't want to worry Megan but the drowsiness was overwhelming him.

Megan didn't even think about the money now. She just felt bad. Like she was losing something.

Megan walks over to him, "Take this bracelet. It protects you from harm. You need it to keep you safe." Her grandma was a spiritual woman and followed their ancient African traditions all the time. So when she made this bracelet Megan knew she had to give it to Roman.

He opens his eyes and he stares at the bracelet as he takes it. The heavy drowsiness was making it difficult for him to speak so he nods his head lightly in acceptance. He could feel his fingers begin to feel numb and his muscles felt weak as he had to put more effort into just holding the bracelet.
