Chapter 32: dles. Ah, Sounds Delicious.

True to my words, as soon as we got inside the carriage, it rained. It wasn't exactly a drizzle, it was a heavy downpour. It made me think that there might be a storm incoming. Thunders flashed loudly which made the two children flinched. Lost was even whimpering beside me.

I looked at the shivering Lost and moved to unstrap my cape to wrap it around her small shoulders. Then my eyes traveled to Nathaniel who was still carrying the little boy in his lap, being bundled with a cape as well. It might be from Uno…

The carriage sped up and not long after, we had finally reached home. George and the others were outside, carrying umbrellas. As soon as we got inside, I turned to Erin.

"Please ready a basin with warm water and a towel then bring it to the room beside mine," I ordered. Erin then immediately acted and left to fulfill it.

Nathan, Lost and I made our way to the said room where the little boy is then laid out on the bed. Mari and Lily quickly closed the curtains so that the cold wind wouldn't go in. Erin then came in a little later carrying all the things I had mentioned and placed it beside the bed.

Nathan frowned as he saw me wringing the warm towel off excess water.

"What are you doing?"

Without glancing at him, I started wiping the boy's body.

"Cleaning him, of course."

"The others can do that," he replies.

"Well, I could too, so I am doing it," was my retort, and continued moving my hands.

He did not talk after that, and just let me do as I wish. Mari was helping me wipe him off while Lost, on the other hand, was at the bedside watching me with her big doe eyes. Upon seeing her state, I glanced at the others who were waiting at the side.

"Could you help Lost clean up?" then turned to Lost, "Are you hungry? You can come with these big sisters and eat. You don't have to worry about your friend, we will take care of him. I promise."

Lost blinks then gazed at Freesia and the rest for a moment before nodding.

"Okay," she says while smiling cutely.

She hops off the bed and follows them outside the room. Nathan was still at the side, awkwardly standing there as he watched us do our tasks.

"Do you want me to do something?" He says afterward.

I glanced at him in question, "Hmm? Like what?"

His brows furrowed, "I don't know. Anything that could help?"

'Err, we kind of got this in the bag so I don't think there is one… Ah!'

Grinning, "Oh, you can stand there by the bed," and pointed to the side where I could see him.

Nathan was confused but followed me anyway.

"Then?"

"Just stand there," and be our eye-candy. Fufufufufu~

He blinked at me in puzzlement, "That's all?"

"Yep!" I replied and glanced at him.

Nathaniel looked doubtful, but heeded to my command and stood there rigidly. It was mildly amusing how he seemed to take it so seriously.

My eyes take note of his appearance. His hair was a bit wet from the rain and parts of his long-sleeves clung to his body, accentuating those muscles. Mari, who got distracted for a moment, instantly reddened and quickened her pace.

'See. He sparks inspiration.'

Lily brought me a change of clothes for the little boy. It was sizes bigger for him but this will do for now. We don't have any clothes for children here anyway so we don't have any choice but to settle with this.

'I wonder where did she get this from'

The door to the room opened and came in George with another older-looking man with him.

"I have brought a physician, milady," he voiced out and ushered the older guy. "This is Haudie, Herman's family doctor."

Doctor Haudie fixed his monocle and greeted us warmly.

"Good to see you again, young miss."

As I looked him over, I suddenly remembered where I saw his face. Right! He came in and checked on me when I was bawling my eyes off on the first week that I got here. He kept asking me things but I had never really given him any attention because I was seriously panicking at that time.

'Ah, that feels so long ago now…'

Remembering that day made me flushed. That was embarrassing on my part.

I offered him a smile, "Thank you for coming here, Doctor. I will leave him to your hands."

I stood up from the bed to let him do his check-up. He checked his pulse first and then touched his forehead before proceeding to check the little boy's eyes and mouth. After all that jazz, he straightened his back and turned to us.

"Is he going to be okay?" I inquired, throwing a worried glance at the little fella on the bed.

"It is only a simple flu, nothing that couldn't be cured. He only needs to take medicines and rest and he would recover within a week," the doctor replied as he started writing prescriptions on his notepad.

"I will give him a shot for now," he added.

'S-shot? Does he mean those scary things that are called syringes? There is something like that here either?'

I averted my eyes when Doctor Haudie pulled out a syringe. Listen here, I mostly fear nothing, but needles? It scares me. It's an irrational fear that came from the thought of the needle being lodged into your veins.

Imagine-- ah no, don't imagine!

I peeked through the sides if he was done doing the thing and sighed in relief when it was over.

"We only have to wait for his fever to go down and he would be fine," he stated.

"Thank you, doctor," I murmured and gazed at the little boy's face again.

He being here is already deviating from the plot. I don't know what will happen in the future now, but I hope this impulsive move of mine won't ruin it.
