Throughout the night, Lycster woke up every few hours or so to check on his sister. He was relieved to know Vy was no longer having a fever. To check on her breathing, he placed his head on her chest and listened to her heartbeat.
It sounded a little offbeat, but Lycster did not think too much of it. After all, his sister had not fully recovered just yet. It was normal for this to happen. Vy also stirred awake soon after. She opened her eyes to see her brother's smiling face.
She held out her hand to touch his cheek as she smiled weekly. Vy wanted to speak but her parched throat forbade her from doing so. She ended up coughing violently. Lycster immediately went to find her some water.
He soon returned with a glass of water and quickly fed it to her. After taking a couple of sips, Vy took in a couple of deep breaths before she attempted to speak again.
"Thank you," she said with a smile as she pats Lycster on the head.
