The Mediums Help

Chapter 20

"Gym time?" Resa frowned as he read Silva's class schedule, him steps coming to a halt near another classroom window. He could see the lower field was deserted, the sun was hot. Resa thought for a moment before resuming him journey at a faster pace.

The pool room was his destination, but again the crowded corridor confused him. People were coming from opposite directions with wet hair, and many girls were carrying their wet clothes with extra plastic bags.

Silva was nowhere to be seen until the group disappeared into the classroom, and Resa ran towards the pool. The room was completely empty, but the water didn't seem calm enough for Resa to run and then rush inside.

He didn't see anything unusual, just Silva with slow movements, and both eyes starting to close. He quickly grabbed the girl, and brought her to the surface. Silva looked drained, but thankfully there was no blue color on her face. Resa's worried look was evident as he laid Silva down on the cold floor tiles.

"Silva, wake up!" said Resa as he patted Silva's right cheek, and then pressed on the girl's chest to make the water come out of her mouth. Several times, and the time was not so short, Silva ended up opening her eyes slowly after letting a little water out of her mouth.

A sigh of relief escaped Resa's lips, his gratitude to God coming out silently. While Silva who still had no energy frowned slightly, she looked at the strange guy who gave her a smile. There was gratitude in Silva for surviving, but there were many questions that she couldn't get out because she didn't have enough energy.

"Cold?" asked Resa before running to the lockers, he opened one without knowing the owner's name. He grabbed a white towel, and used it to wipe the water off Silva's skin.

The girl stayed still for a while until she finally closed her eyes again. Of course Resa was confused, without waiting long, Resa took Silva quickly to a safer, warmer place.

"Doctor, help me, Doctor!" cried Resa as he carried Silva in his arms, he slid the curtains over the patient's bed before putting Silva to sleep.

Tarisa arrived with a stethoscope, and a tension device. Her eyebrows knitted together when she saw the female patient drenched in unconsciousness on the bed. "Resa, what's wrong with her, what happened to make you wet like this?"

"Drowning Doctor, she drowned. I got into the water, and tried to bring her to consciousness. She came to for a short time, maybe not even a minute or two, but she fainted again after that," Resa explained worriedly.

Tarisa understood Resa's explanation, and called her assistant over while watching Silva's blood pressure, and her slightly slower heartbeat. The tiny body felt cold, and Tarisa was worried about some of the side effects Silva would have.

Resa went outside while Tarisa, and one of the nurses, changed Silva's clothes into warm dry clothes. The wet hair was also given a towel to dry quickly, there were no more wet clothes when Resa came to see. Everything looked fine now, and it was warmer because Silva was wearing a blanket.

"She's fine, it won't take long to wait for her to wake up. Now it's just you, when are you going to replace those wet clothes with dry clothes?"

Tarisa's question snapped Resa out of him reverie, he gave a smile before saying, "I don't have a new uniform, I'd better borrow the patient's clothes with the dryer that the Doctor usually uses for hair. Is that okay, Doctor?"

"Oh my God." Tarisa shook her head in disbelief, but there was a smile behind her annoyance for Resa. She went to her desk, picking up a fairly large hair dryer. She handed it to Resa who had followed her to her desk. "It takes a long time to dry your clothes."

Resa nodded his head as he looked at the red dryer. He knew very well about drying clothes taking a long time, but he also thought that it wouldn't take that long. He was so sure that he gave Tarisa a big smile. "I'm going to the restroom, Doctor, please take care of that patient named Silva. I'll be back after this uniform is dry."

"Taking care of patients is the job of medical personnel, you don't have to worry!"

Hearing that pleasant answer made Resa choose to leave immediately. He carried the patient's clothes, and the dryer to the UKS toilet. It was not far away, and as soon as he stepped into the farthest cubicle, his uniform had come off quickly, and the patient's clothes clung to his slender body.

Resa smiled happily, as he went outside to dry him school uniform. Fortunately it was not so wet after being in a dry place for that long. However, it was a pity that the uniform did not look as neat as before, when it dried it would definitely look very shabby. Resa was sure of it, but there was no choice but this. He didn't have enough money to buy a new uniform like his other friends, being poor was no fun. Struggling in everything without ever knowing what to do.

Resa felt so sad when he remembered that his sister didn't have enough money just to buy a new uniform, Regina had to accept used uniforms from neighbors who happened to go to the same school as her. However, the love given by their mother made them feel enough, even rich enough because they felt that not everyone could feel the love of a mother.

The uniform was already half dry, and the shirt felt very dry even though it was a little stiff. Resa borrowed a clothes hanger from the place without permission, and he walked away with the dryer that had done so much for his uniform today.

"Doctor, my uniform is half-dried. I borrowed a clothes hanger for my uniform now," Resa said to Tarisa who was busy reading a medical book.

"That's cool, so are you done with the tools?"

"Already." Resa handed the dryer to the original owner with a big smile. "Has the patient I brought in just now made any progress, Doctor?"

"Not yet, she's still fast asleep in her place. The nurse said she'll wake up soon, or maybe later. Just wait if you don't have an important class, but go to class if you have an important lesson!"

"There is no important class today, Doctor. She's much more important than today's lesson."

"You know each other?" Tarisa's brow furrowed, she gave a probing look. "Is she the lover you've never seen?"

"Of course not, Doctor," Resa replied quickly, and he added a rather crisp laugh at the end. "I don't have a lover, I have important matters to settle with this girl."
