A bright, refreshing morning.
"Aunt Poppy, please forgive me. It was accidental!"
"Rest, big bro! We all have forgiven you, and can you please stop your melodrama because it is making all of us gloomy!" a sharp yet pretty voice came.
"Wait who are you? I do no- oh, it's you, Anna. Can you please for-"
"Just shut up , big bro."
"But please forgive me because you know, being my cousin, I have seen you half-naked! Can you please for-"
"JUST SHUT UP BIG BRO!!"
"Oh, sorry! By the way, how much time it has been since I was sleeping?"
"Oh, it is not that big time, you know! You just slept for about five days straight!"
"Wait wha- (He coughs hardly)"
"Please give yourself a great rest, big bro! for these five days, I was taking care of you. And don't think that I saw your pen-"
"That doesn't matter. Since you are my doctor, it is completely okay. However, did you attend the school?"
"Yes why not! To become a great doctor, I need to read a lot!"
"But where's James? I can't see him!"
"Lil bro is in school. After you got admitted, he was also admitted, just barely passed!"
"What the he- (He again coughs hardly)"
"What did I say?"
"You said me to get rest and not to get melodramatic and tensed up!"
"Yeah, that's right big bro!!"
After several minutes, Godfrey came inside the room with a girl behind him.
"Hey darling, how are you now? Are you feeling better or this doctor needs to be changed?"
"No, I'm good. She is a great doctor!"
"However, I brought a special guest here! Guess who might be this interesting special guess?"
"Any colleague of you or aunt?"
"No!"
"So your childhood friend?"
"Still no!"
"So who is this special guest?"
"Your friend! Guess who now?"
"Jack?"
"No!"
"William?"
"No!"
"So who, maybe max-"
"No, it's my friend Friedrik's third daughter and fifth child, Mrs. Cassie Thorne!!"
"You are joking, right! I don't want to show my f*cking face to that lady!"
"Excuse me big bro, did you just called her 'lady'?"
"Yes, she's a mature dignified woman so that's why-"
"Hey Harley, are you doing good?" said the girl who was behind Godfrey.
"I'm doing goo- wait what the fu-"
"Just give yourself a beautiful rest" said the three in unison.
After some time:
"These are your swordsmanship notes, your geography notes, history, economics and Aura and Mana notes. Just read them carefully and do not damaged them, okay because I have personally made them with care!" said Cassie as she was gently rubbing her soft left hand on his wounded chest which was carefully wrapped by medicine and bandage.
The gentle rubbing was causing a sense of relief all over Harley's body!!
"Thanks for all the things that you did for me. I'm really grateful! Just please do not see me as a freak or a pervert because of that incide-"
"Can you please stop you melodrama!"
Seeing them interacting in such a way, Anna saw a couple in them. But she was just reminding herself,"They're just friends."
Suddenly, Harley got up, even though it hurted, but still he sat up, saying,"Won't you eat here?"
"No, I will have to go, since Ray is visiting our house for a 'personal' talk with my two brothers and my eldest sister you know."
"Why he will visit?"
"I don't know, he was saying that he would marry Lisa once he turned 25! By the way, the cause is only know to my brothers and eldest sister."
"What about you middle sister?"
"Oh, she just left to visit her fiancé!"
"Well, I think you should stay now! You took the trouble for visiting us and you will go without eating. Just call sir Godfrey and he will provide what you need- food, water, anything you-"
"I will just be here for about 10 minutes then my lil bro would come to pick me! I'll not be here."
"I think you two are acting like a couple, big bro and Mrs. Cassie!"
"Shut up, idiot! Do you have any idea what you are saying!"
