Theo was taking off my coat when he paused in his action. He lowered his eyes to look at me, his eyes filled with
a hint of delight. "I'll take you to the hospital for a health check-up tomorrow." "There's no need for that." |
decisively refused because | thought it was unnecessary. "The hospital isn't a good place to go to. There's no
need to go there if it's just a minor thing."
Theo kissed my forehead and said with a smile, "We need to perform a body check once every year. Since you
haven't done one yet, you might as well treat it as a health check-up." "Alright then."

Since he insisted that | get a health checkup, | had no reason to refuse.
When he had helpedchange into my pajamas, | lay in bed and was so dazed that | planned to just go to

Theo remembered that he was going to taketo the hospital to get a health check-up, hence he woke up very
early this morning and got into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
| nestled on the sofa in the living room, yawning constantly because | was sleepy.
This was so strange. Why was | still so sleepy when | slept so early last night?
Theo was making a bowl of oatmeal. He poked his head out from the kitchen. "Do you want any honey?"
| yawned so hard that even my tears rolled out. "Sure."
Looking at the foggy weather, | kind of did not want to go out anymore.
It must be really cold outside today. It was the kind of coldness where no number of layers would warm one up.
Theo was done making the oatmeal and walked out of the kitchen with an apron on. He asked with a smile, "Do
you want to have scookies? | can make sfor you."
I waved my hand and replied in a hoarse voice, "I don't have an appetite. I'll just have soatmeal. Since
we're going to the hospital, let's take Munchkin there for a check-up too. Fortunately, traffic won't be very heavy

Though I figured it was nice being crippled too because it was so comfortable that way.

City. Shouldn't we, as the hosts, find a tto invite her out for a meal? Besides, | don't feel comfortable
knowing that she's still dating Jordan."
Theo nodded and blew the oatmeal in the spoon. "You can ask her to cover and stay here or book a hotel for
her. It's not safe for her to be in Whaldorf City alone. It's best to take care of her." "Jordan probably won't hurt
her, right?"
After a series of incidents, my perception of Jordan changed from him being a cold and indifferent person to a «
sinister one.
