Chapter 11 - Everybody Lie 11

Renelle walked hurriedly toward the changing rooms. With her memories of so many years working in this hospital she knows exactly where the staff changing rooms are, so Renelle headed to that place to solve the problems with her clothing.

But Renelle never thought that Cameron would follow her.

"Renelle, that is not the bathroom, it is the staff changing room. The women's bathroom is over here"

"Ah! Why did you follow me?" Renelle was surprised when she was about to enter the changing room.

"Follow me. Since you do not know the hospital yet because it is your first time here I thought you would not find the bathroom easily"

Cameron took Renelle by the hand and pulled her gently.

Renelle resisted at first.

'What a soft hand...' ×2

Renelle and Cameron had the same thought.

"But... But do you not have to be with your patient?"

"Nn. Chase and Foreman can take care of the others. That reminds me of the second reason why I came for you..." Cameron shook her head.

Now that the patient has a confirmed diagnosis she can forget about medicine.

Since the moment she heard Wilson and Dean Cuddy betting on her boss's paternity strange feelings have been circling in her heart and her mind has been filled only with getting to know this little girl.

"What second reason?" Renelle asked with curiosity, since she could not help resisting being pulled by Cameron.

The physical strength of her new body unbalanced her. As a mature man of two lives who is strong and with a great height of more than one hundred eighty centimeters seeing that a thin and young woman can hold her by the hand and pull her surprised him.

"How did you discover that the patient had neurocysticercosis?"

"I... I have studied medicine since... Always? My mother taught me, my family is of doctors in the Country of the Dragon" Renelle was breaking her head to think of an excuse.

Remembering the past she had given herself in this body. Then she had no choice but to throw all the blame on that invented mother and family.

"House did not tell you? By the way, where has House been hiding all this time..."

"Ahem... I do not know..." Renelle felt embarrassed and nervous. If Cameron is in sight she cannot use that illusion ability to change her form.

"You never know where he gets into. This is the bathroom for exclusive female staff. You can enter calmly, I will be here outside"

Cameron pointed to a door with the bathroom sign, it has a sign above the door with the word written in black -Occupied- that seems to light up when someone is inside.

Renelle stared at the door and then looked up at the young doctor who was looking at her with an expression of supporting her and encouraging her.

'Sigh ~ Now what do I do? I really did not want to come to the bathroom...' Renelle House sighed but had no choice but to enter the bathroom.

After closing the door Renelle was left with the image of Cameron making signs while she entered and closed the bathroom door.

'she is not going to leave...' Renelle knew she had to solve this problem. If Cameron stays with her all the time she cannot change to House.

Renelle must find a solution in the book. If the book gave her the idea of using a kind of body illusion magic so that everyone could see her as she is in this life perhaps it has the solution.

"Wow... Why is the women's bathroom better than the communal bathroom we men have?" Renelle murmured as she turned and saw the bathroom.

The bathroom has good white lighting, on the left there is a section with a cubicle with a door where the toilet is.

"Why a cubicle inside a bathroom that is already private and for one use?" Renelle murmured upon seeing that there is no logic in the bathroom design.

In front, to the right of Renelle there is a long counter with the sink and a large mirror covers the entire wall.

Renelle approached the counter-sink, looked at herself in the mirror.

Renelle could see a young girl, very pretty with beautiful clear blue eyes shining full of vitality.

The skin of the girl in the reflection is so white but without losing the healthy tone, her almost platinum blonde hair was tied back but had loose and rebellious strands of hair everywhere.

Upon seeing the clothes she is wearing when looking down, she started to feel strange.

'No wonder people look at me strangely. This clothing is a disaster... Wait! Why did I not think of using the illusion to change my clothes?' "AH! plas" Renelle gave herself a slap on the forehead.

"Good! Book, help me think of something!" Renelle waved her hands and a black book of codex style appeared between her hands. Renelle then placed the book on the bathroom counter and opened it. But the first thing that came out of her mouth was a complaint.

"Damn height! Why do they make the sinks so high!" Renelle could barely see herself over the bathroom counter with a height she calculated as one hundred forty centimeters and the height of the counter is about one hundred ten centimeters more or less.

After grumbling for a while, Renelle started to read the open page in the black book.

"Uhnm... This segment talks about the transmission of energy... Here is about movement and here is the flow...

Normally these things mean the same but... Transmit. Can energy be transmitted outward?"

Unconsciously Renelle after reading used her right hand to turn the page as anyone would do.

But Renelle was surprised to see that she could turn the page. In a book it would be normal and there is nothing to be surprised about. But this book is special, it almost does not leave the pages it contains free to be opened!

"... With this can I make a doll?"

The information on the new page of the book gave her the idea of creating a puppet, an illusion with an object as an anchor to create another -Me- with which she can communicate and even interact as if it were her real body.

Renelle then took a bill from her wallet. She made some folds and transmitted vital energy to it.

Renelle already had five minutes in the bathroom and in her feeling she thought she had already taken too long and Cameron outside could worry and enter.

The bill folded like a diamond with easy origami returned to the pocket in the dress pants that are too big for Renelle.

"Thanks! You came up with a great idea~" Renelle happily took the book in her arms and gave it a kiss.

Afterward, the book disappeared after transmitting feelings of happiness and joy to Renelle.

Renelle looked at herself in the mirror and smiled. She opened the water faucet and rinsed her face. Afterward she took some thick paper napkins from the side and dried her face and hands and left the bathroom.

"... The vital signs tests show that the patient is healthier than a horse."

"Renelle! Ready? Let's go to your dad's office, maybe he has already gone there." Cameron ignored Chase who was informing her of the patient's condition and greeted Renelle cheerfully.

When Renelle came out, the handsome young doctor named Chase was informing Cameron of the tests.

Renelle did not worry about how Chase found them. And after solving the identity problem, she no longer felt nervous.

"Yes... Maybe.." Renelle only spoke.

Cameron approached and took Renelle by the hand again.

"I can go alone..."

"Jejeje, do not be shy..."

Renelle tried again to free herself but Cameron did not let go easily.

"She does not seem to be the daughter of ..."

"Shhh!

So, Renelle tell me more about yourself. Did you come to America with your mother? Where is she..."

Cameron silenced Chase before he could say something and calling the attention of the little blonde-haired girl she started a private topic.

Although Cameron herself did not know why she had started with a question about the little girl's mother.

"She stayed in the Country of the Dragon..."

"How? Then who did you come with?"

"Alone, I... My mother sent me to meet my father." Renelle went blank. She had not yet consolidated a good excuse to solve the problem of -why she is here-.

Renelle cannot say that her mother simply died and she traveled to America to find her father, that could attract more problems.

Besides, even if her mother died, that does not mean she does not have other family. And what airline would let a young girl travel alone.

It is more believable to say that it was her own mother who boarded her and gave permission for her to travel.

But Renelle did not know what Cameron was thinking.

Cameron upon seeing Renelle's nervous look and how she diverted her words and her gaze away from her thought she was lying, that maybe she had somehow run away from home to meet her father.

Besides, Renelle's clothing that she is wearing now, or attempt at clothing, indicates that Renelle arrived without luggage. If a mother sends her child to her father's house the safest thing is to equip a lot of clothes and other basic needs.

In the mind of this idealistic and empathetic young doctor that is what a young and enthusiastic girl like Renelle who has only known her mother and has a longing to have a father would do. Run away from home.

Now Cameron is thinking about how to take care of this little one, she has been working with Doctor House for a few months and knows what kind of man he is. House does not seem like someone responsible who would take care of someone else if he barely takes care of himself, much less of a delicate young girl around sixth or seventh grade.

In the mind of the young female doctor, a whole movie is being created and playing.
