Chapter 9

Visiting hours has ended minutes ago. The group of worried trolls had left the troll from Space's hospital room. Michelle,Joey,David and Buddy steps outside but, the lady from the front desk has stopped Milton from leaving. The gentle troll stands at the front desk.

"Mr Moss,we have a bit of a problem...", the lady says honestly and unhappily.

" What is the problem? ",Milton asks concerned.

The Reggaeton troll sighs then grabs some forms on a clipboard from under the desk. The problem is financial and medical care. The female troll hands Milton the important forms then starts explaining the problem.

" Well,the patient has no ID and we don't have any information about her. We can't access her medical care if she even has or contact anyone. Plus her treatments and care are costly...",the worker explains professionally.

Milton understands the problem. If the troll he found is going to stay here and be treated then someone has to take of the expenses and support her. The male Pop troll knew he can't just leave knowing this. He did pay for all of treatments the stranger got today but, he feels like couldn't leave her with issue. It is clear to him she went through way too much already and he didn't have the heart to leave these serious bills for her when she wakes up! Milton immediately makes a decision in that moment.

" Give her my Medical Care and you can contact me if something happens.",Milton says seriously.

Then Milton starts filling in his information and Medical Care details in the form with a blue pen. He wants to do this. He wants to help where he can. The female Reggaeton troll wants to make sure that Milton really wants to go through with his decision. Nobody is forcing him to do this.

" Are you sure about this,Sir?",the woman asks.

Milton couldn't be more sure about his decision. He finishes filling all of the important details in. Then he puts down the pen and hands the forms over to the woman. He gives her an small and sure smile too.

" I'm sure.",Milton says sure and confident.

The woman nods her head understandingly. She takes the forms then quickly puts the information into her computer. Once everything is done she turns back to Milton.

" Need anything else? ", Milton asks.

" No,Sir. Thankyou for the details. That will be all. Enjoy the rest of the night. ", the woman says politely and professional.

After that moment Milton says Good bye and thanks the troll for telling him the problem. Then he leaves the hospital. Soon Milton and his parents are back home. David and Buddy had went back to their home as well. Milton sits down on the red couch in the TV room taking everything in. He'll never forget this day...

The TV room is medium size. The walls are white with pictures on the wall. There is a big window made up of three windows together on the right wall and has silver curtains covering it up. The big carpet on the wooden floor is light blue and takes up the whole floor. There is a nice coffee table in the middle of the room. The TV sits on an black wood and simple entertainment center which is against an wall.

The TV room is opened up by an large brick arch which allows access to the rest of the house. Two armchairs and the couch surround the table at their own angle. There is also small pretty vase of flowers on the coffee table sitting between the pile of magazines and the TV remote. The lighting is bright and is from an energy saving light blub.

Milton sighs quietly to himself. His mother is in the kitchen and he hears her turn on the kettle. Milton doesn't react to it because, he is still processing everything. Then Joey walks into the TV room and looks at his son. Milton doesn't notice his father.

" Are you okay,son?",Joey asks softly and caring.

Joey's voice snaps Milton back to reality. Milton turns his head to his father and pauses for a moment. He guesses he is fine. This situation with the troll he found at the river worries him. It worries him very much to be honest!

" I'm fine,dad...",Milton replies softly.

Joey can tell that what happened today is on Milton's mind. It is also on Joey and Michelle's minds too. None of them had been in this kind of situation before! It's a lot to take in... Then Joey sits down next his son on the couch. The father and son look at each other as they talk.

" We all are worried about her but, she will be fine. The doctors and nurses will make sure of that. ",Joey says comforting.

" I don't doubt that at all. ",Milton admits honestly.

Joey puts an hand on Milton's shoulder. The younger adult notices the action. The older man smiles at his son. Milton becomes confused by his father's actions. He didn't understand why his father is smiling.

" I'm proud of you,Milton.",Joey says honestly.

Milton becomes more confused. The confusion appears on his face and Joey notices it. Milton blinks a few times not figuring out why his dad is saying this. It seems out of the blue to him.

"For what?",Milton asks confused.

" For saving that girl. Whether you believe it or not you had the option to leave her in the forest to die but, you didn't. And you didn't have to stay in the Hospital to make sure she was okay. Your a strong young man for doing the right thing and you have a big heart. That's why I'm proud of you...",Joey explains honestly.

Joey meant every single word. He couldn't be prouder of Milton. Joey and Michelle did their best raising Milton and he is happy to see the person Milton became. All Joey wanted Milton to do is to be happy,to take care of himself and do the right thing... What more could an father ask for? Unless you count wanting grandchildren but, it's way too early for that!

A smile forms on Milton's face. Hearing what his father said made him feel better and more easy. Milton is happy about making his father proud. Life isn't always simple and easy for Milton but, he knew he could always count on his parents to understand and support him.

"I honestly just did what I thought I had to do. Thank you for telling me that, dad. ", Milton says honestly and sincerely.

" Any time...",Joey replies happily.
