As Rosy let himself in, at Lisa's room. Lisa he becomes vigilant and alert. she had been lost in her comics world. as she listened someone else foot steps. for the precaution, she lets it in under the bad sheet and kept pillow over it.
she spinned to see. and uttered to her mouth. " oh, I thought. it would be dad again." she sighed.
as, her dad had come home. first of all he got himself to see Lisa. and inspected is she alright. in the afternoon, every half or one hour, he had been called her to know about her condition.
it is her dad's virtual image in her mind.that no matter how busy he is. but he won't stop caring about their family.
Rosy just came to take bath. she stride towards her side and stopped in front of her. she asked to her anxiously " did your fever go down?"
" how does it look." she jerks her curly hair back side and asked her in irrational voice.
Rosy gazed at her for friction second. and, scrutinized her. then, speculatively said "you must be fine now. or else, you wouldn't be able to read comics." she had seen her hide it.
her secret about craziness for comics happens to know by everyone in this house except mom and dad. if someone saw her room from the front. he would absolutely give nine out of ten points. it is so clean and organized. that no one could could speculate. that her drawer would be wade from unnecessary hobby goods of her. it was more likely kind of heap of garbage. she never allowed anyone to touch her stuff. as, her mom was also unaware of it.
" she lay down over her bed again and squinted at her and said feebly "had you eaten?"
Lisa was famished. but she would never like to eat porridge which had been especially made for her. she had thought that she would get over from hunger.she said to herself ' just hold up it's only one day.'
even,her dad and mom had urged to her several times to eat. but she made an excuse every time.she asserted ' she would go downstairs to eat herself after some rest. she is sleepy.'
but, right now she was out of her limitation.she can't afford it anymore. she was so feeble that she demanded to Rosy "give me one potato chips packet. it should be in this drawer." Rosy takes a cue from her. it is the first time she allowed her to touch her stuff.
as, she gets to open drawer. Lisa gazed at her and startled. she asked to her "what happened to you." she was asking about her injury.
Oliver sounds come in her ear. he was saying. "nothing, it was an ferocious girls' spar. it is just a minor dint. if I hadn't come to do meddling. then, it would be as drastic as you can't image it."
Rosy have been paused to hear it. and Lisa was looking at him. and tried to fathom him." "so, your face distracted by them." she ironically said.
"you may say that it is outcome of ferocious battle. and I am the one who got it."
"don't you want to say anything" his gaze had been shifted on Rosy.
Lisa gets up on the bed, curiosity flaring in her eyes. and giving her incredulous strength. she asked him " didn't dad ask about it to you?"
he comes over and sat on the side chair. and casually crossed of his hand to each other on his sleeve.and said " "yes, he asked and I concocted a story. for her reputation. I said it was an accident. and I was the one who reprimanded by him." he was starring at wall to shift his eye.
she didn't utter a single word. she was paused like sculpture. her eyes was looking at toes of herself. perhaps, she didn't find the way, how to explain it.
Lisa felt unexplecible stress of silence. so, she tried to change topic. she had been lack of talking subject.
so, she abruptly asked to him "did you meet her, today? how long has it gone?"
as, Rosy listened it. she dashed toward bed. and started saying without asking.
" sis, do you know what happened today? you should have to look at brother's appearance.
I was oblivious. I should taken one photo to show you. it was very funny." she grinned.
Oliver and Lisa were being aghasted by her quickly change. Oliver wanted to disrupt her patter but he failed.
Lisa muttered " i missed an interesting moment today. it's my bad."
as, they were busy on their conversation. her mom appeared in front of them. and said to them " what on earth are you doing here?"
" go downstair, don't you have to get supper."
" both of them scooted to abstain by mom's eyes. her mom twisted towards her and said with smiling face to her to eat. she was stood with a bowl. Lisa knew what would it be in this bowl.
her mom said to her. "you haven't eaten whole day. you just took a bit of transfused. this time,i will not go until you eat all of it." she was nagging her. but it was waste. she already was so hunger that she could eat anything.
she already had been forgotten hunger when she was talking to them. but now, it roused again. she swigged all to glut of her empty stomach.
her mom now, taken place of chair. she thought, she must be very hungry. she asked her to one another bowl. but she totally denied her request. she said "I am full. I don't want it anymore."
she thought everyone had come to know about her condition. but, only one who didn't come to saw her was Heloice.
