Lunch break was over and Kayla and Alvira had no choice but to depart and meet later in their apartment after work.
"So....so you mean to say that you didn't get the chance to thank him?" Alvira asked, still stuck on the matter.
A nod from Kayla answered her query. She nodded in understanding.
"The guy you ran into at the local restaurant was him?"
"I... don't know. I wasn't fortunate enough to see his face clearly in that alley. But they both have the same facials from what I've remembered." Kayla voiced out.
"Then why couldn't he remember you atleast a flash?"
"You know what let's live it here, our break is over you have to run along now before your arrogant boss realize you are not present." Kayla told Alvira seeing the girls persistence in the matter.
After heaving a sigh Alvira said. "Fine. I'll get going then."
They both stood and gave each other a hug and a cheek to cheek kiss before exiting the restaurant together. Going their separate ways.

Alvira hadn't been able to concentrate through out work. She didn't know what was keeping her mind distracted and occupied but she felt uninterested in anything and everything. Even when Kathy came to her with the aim of keeping her company, she outrightly rejected her.
"What's wrong with you today Al?" The annoyed Kathy whined out, not liking the sluggish Alvira today.
"Are you in a bad mood? Oh wait who is....Mr....bi billionaire yes, Mr billionaire you talked about in your drunken state last night?" Without even waiting for her first question to be answered, Kathy immediately threw another which she was so curious to learn about. And successfully, this particular question got a reaction from Alvira as she instantly still in her activities.
Turning a glance to Kathy, Alvira slowly asked her. "What Mr billionaire?"
Seeing the confusion etched on Alvira's face Kathy inwardly thought that maybe she hadn't remembered what happened the night before. Smiling widely she started. "You said something about mmmm.... Paying Mr billionaire a visit and something like that...." She reminded.
Immediately Alvira heard this from Kathy, her eyes twitched. Putting on a dumb look Alvira acted like she knew nothing. "I don't know what you are talking about kath, or are just here to explore some Gossip rather than help me work?" Alvira raised her voice a little pitch higher to atleast make the girl stop her insensitive questions.
"No need to get so worked up, hmph you are starting to act like Kayla, her influence on is just too much. Hmph I'm out."
Alvira paid no attention to her useless jittery and noise and just let her do how she wish and leave.
Sighing for the upteenth time, Alvira felt so downcasted at this point. The discussion she had with Kayla came crashing back. Making her wonder why someone will just disappear like that without notice after saving a soul.
It brought her back to the thought of the stranger she took to the hospital. Why did he suddenly disappear on her? They are all the same!. She screamed in her mind throwing away the thing she was holding.
Alvira placed her hand in her side pocket and pulled out a piece of paper. She looked at it for long time. "Scumbag!" She said then started to tear it to shreds.
It was a check which was by the side of the bracelet she picked up that day from the hospital. Of course no one else could keep that except from him. It was a pretty huge sum of ten million US dollar. 'He didn't have to slap it in my face that he is some wealthy heir. Who wants your money.' She muttered as she kept shredding little by little.
