Chapter 6 Do You Want to Make One?
On the bus, Ebony Gibson sat on the front seat. She closed her eyes to rest her mind. Look backward, Rita Obrien and Teri Holland sat together while Jacob Silva sat singly. Lloyd Vasquez sat in the corner in the last row. He looked alienated from others.
People were startled because of the bump of the bus on the way to the airport.
Ebony Gibson looked backward. She was about to see whether all guests were all right, but finally she found Lloyd Vasquez in the corner looked even worse.
It turned out that he was fine after health examination yesterday. Why was he still so weak? Was he made from glasses?
Ebony Gibson frowned and said to the driver, "Find somewhere to stop the bus ahead."
The staff was confused, "What's the matter?"
"I want to go to the public lavatory." Ebony Gibson said calmly.
"..." Finally, the staff had to ask the driver to stop the bus ahead. Keeping guests from going to the lavatory would be an inhumane action.
Ebony Gibson ran away after getting off the bus. When she got back, she held a brown transparent glass in her hand, which looked like coffee.
Rita Obrien took the chance and said, "I also want to drink some coffee."
Ebony Gibson glanced at her coldly.
Rita Obrien, "..."
Ebony Gibson got on the bus and walked to the last row. The driver started the bus suddenly, making Ebony Gibson swayed and sat next to Lloyd Vasquez. Their bodies are close together.
Ebony Gibson sat a little far from him hurriedly and gave the glass to him, "You'll be better with this."
Lloyd Vasquez looked at her and compressed his lips. There was some sweat on his forehead. He took the glass from Ebony Gibson and found that the glass was still hot, which could be used to warm his hands up.
"Drink it." She urged when seeing him sitting still.
Lloyd Vasquez asked coldly, "Do you have the license of traditional Chinese medicine practitioner?"
"Yes. I have! You ought to follow my words and drink it. If you have some problem after drinking it, I will take the responsibility." She said impatiently. She caught Lloyd Vasquez's hand rudely and tried to take his pulse.
The girl's hand felt warm. But on the contrary, his hand was cold.
Lloyd Vasquez was reluctant to leave the warmth he felt at that moment. He curled his fingers slightly.
However, the girl shook off his hand, "There's nothing serious with you. You just have a low fever. You will recover after drinking it and sleep for a while on the plane."
The medicine was made up by herself in the medicine cabinet of the drugstore. She used ground electuary.
Lloyd Vasquez looked at her quietly with his black eyes.
Ebony Gibson was a little fretful, "Do you want me to feed you?"
"That's OK." The man said suddenly.
Ebony Gibson, "..."
"You are so idle that you still have time to play jokes. Drink it. I'm so tired that I don't want to take care of a patient during the journey." After that, She stood up and walked towards her own seat.
Other guests knew that Lloyd was ill then. No wonder he looked so chilly, which made them dare not to greet him before. They all stood up immediately and wanted to go backwards to show their concern.
Ebony Gibson in front of the bus said suddenly, "Sit down and fasten your safety belt. You will die if there is an accident because you haven't obeyed traffic rules!"
"..."
People around turned quiet suddenly for a while. They had to go back to their seats and fasten their safety belts for the steward's prestige.
However, the staff tried to avoid all cameras to go backwards to show their concern. If Lloyd had something serious here, they would lose everything, even their underwear.
They were relieved after knowing that Lloyd was better and had drunk the electuary given by Ebony Gibson. They thought that the electuary was something like Radix Isatidis or Compound Ganmaoling Granules, so they didn't worry too much. They said that they would ask someone to take him to the hospital immediately once they got off the plane.
The bus got to the airport finally. Unexpectedly, Victor Torres had arrived.
Victor Torres looked at Ebony Gibson in the crowd. His handsome face turned more chilly. He had knew everything. Ebony Gibson took the place of Alfredo Stokes to be the steward. To make her more decent, she was called steward, but in fact, she was just a servant who would care for other guests' trifles.
As a servant, how dare she play tricks on him this morning. He would let her come to no good end for offending him!
When thinking of that, Victor Torres noticed suddenly that Lloyd Vasquez was also behind the crowd.
On amusement circles, Lloyd Vasquez was known by everyone.
Victor Torres just paused for a while, then he ran towards other guests, "Why do you get here so late? I thought you have left. Eh, Lloyd! I haven't expected that you will also be here. I am so excited for I haven't expected that I could have chance to join in the same show with you. I'm your fan. I've seen every film you starred in at least ten times. Can you sign for me? I adore you very much!"
He took out a piece of paper and a pen while speaking.
Lloyd Vasquez frowned. His chilly face turned colder.
At first, Ebony Gibson was standing by. Then, she walked forwards to stood between Lloyd Vasquez and Victor Torres.
Lloyd Vasquez was puzzled then. He looked down on the little girl with his black eyes. The girl in front of him was as high as the height of his chest and she had long hair which was like algae.
"He is uncomfortable. Why do you still ask him to sigh for you?". Ebony Gibson looked up at Victor Torres. She sneered, "Would you like to ask him to play a spectacular bicycle kick for you, my dear boy?"
Victor Torres paused. He felt embarrassed at that moment with some paper and a pen in his hand. He looked at Lloyd Vasquez hurriedly, "Sorry, I don't know that you are uncomfortable."
And then he looked at Ebony Gibson, "However, you don't have to tell me that in this tone, my dear steward. Oh, by the way, the staff said that we should assemble at seven this morning, but why did you tell me that I should assemble at seven thirty? Do you do something just to aim at me deliberately?"
Victor Torres had imagined that Ebony Gibson would be panic-stricken when he asked that. After all, she would be caught unprepared if she was debunked in the show.
However, Ebony Gibson smiled after hearing that, "Do I aim at you deliberately?"
Ebony Gibson looked gorgeous and fair. She glanced at him with her beautiful black eyes directly, "Why do I have to aim at you deliberately? If you want to make a key, you have to pay three yuan. If you want to make three keys, you have to pay ten yuan. Do you want to make one?"
"You..." Victor Torres was stupefied.
He hadn't expected that Ebony Gibson would abuse him in front of all guests and staff in the live broadcast!
Was she mad?
Victor Torres stared dumbfounded.
"You..."
"You, you, you, what do you want to say?" Ebony Gibson said without thinking, "Can't you speak? Can you straighten your tongue? You stammered and droned. Let me tell you. From the aspect of medicine, your teeth were related to your left cerebral hemisphere. Has you thought that you have suffered from cancer with your left cerebral hemisphere for you can't speak clearly?"
"Ebony Gibson!" Victor Torres was out of control and yelled loudly.
"Why do you call your dad?" Ebony Gibson said lightly.
"You... You..."
"Don't you want your air ticket?" Ebony Gibson didn't want to talk more with him. She raised her chin and glanced at the clock in the airport terminal, "We'll check in at eight. If you don't get your ticket at that time, I won't wait for you, my unfilial son."
