Year 9987, Day 1 of the Month of the Snow.
"Whoa." - Luciel exclaimed as he watched the snow descend until it fell to the ground.
It was the first day of the winter season, but it was already starting to snow. As its name indicated, in the month of Snow it was when it snowed more in all Skypea.
It was a month when many people caught colds, although this time, for the citizens of the Town of Hope there was not much problem, thanks to the appearance of Dr. Aris who arrived in town a few days ago.
Although of course, thanks to the fact that it was the winter season, the doctor would be busier, trying to cure the dozens of patients that they would begin to receive.
So much so, that within a few hours of this day he had already received three children who were beginning to show signs of colds.
On the continent of Skypea, hundreds of thousands of people died each year in these months when they became ill, there were worse diseases, but none occurred every year like colds, where young people were the main victims.
"Luciel, don't tell me that you're sick too." - Dr. Aris said when he saw young Luciel enter his clinic.
"Of course not."
"Did they hit you again?"
"No."
"So, what are you doing here?"
"Don Armando asked me to see if I had remedies for the cold, and if you do, buy them."
"Well, I have pills, and syrups, but is he sick?"
"No, but he wants them to prevent if someone gets sick treat him right away."
"Hm ... I understand, that's smart, although I don't know if it's okay, each person gets sick in different ways, some need more treatment while others with a good rest heal the next day."
"Whoa." - Luciel exclaimed again, seeing the snow fall.
"Beautiful." - said the Doctor's Assistant. His assistant was a woman who, like the doctor, hid her face with a mask, her name was Liz, and she was a person who spoke little, because whenever Luciel comes to visit the doctor, there have been very few times that he has heard her voice.
"Yes." - Luciel said.
"Do you love snow?" Asked the doctor.
"Yes, this day was the first time I saw snow, I never thought it would be something beautiful to see." - said the young man.
"Well, this month it will snow every day, so, you will see that soon you will be fed up with the snow, not to mention that you could get sick."
"Ha, I don't know if that's going to happen."
"Believe me, I went through the same stage."
"And Miss Liz?"
"Well, she has always loved nature."
"That is good."
"So is." - said the doctor who had already prepared what Don Armando asked for.
"This is for when you start coughing, and this is for the fever." - Said the doctor pointing to a syrup and some pills. - "If you have difficulty breathing or do not improve in five days, bring the patient to me immediately."
"OK."
"Well, and try not to get sick, I don't know if your body can handle the disease."
"Come on, I don't think a simple cold will kill me." - Luciel said.
But Dr. Aris just kept quiet, and not being able to see his face, Luciel did not know if he was looking at him seriously or calmly.
"Eh?"
"He was serious Luciel, you cannot trust yourself when it comes to your health, you must take care of yourself, and you should wear a coat."
"It is understood." - Luciel said that he took the medicines, paid the doctor, and said goodbye. - "See you."
"Beware!" - shouted the doctor who saw the young earthling run.
"Hm."
"What's going on?"
"I do not like him." - Liz said.
"Why?"
"Very weak ... very noisy."
"Well, he's an Earthling, and besides, all children are loud." - said Aris.
"It may be, but there is something strange about him, something that I cannot explain." - Liz said as she started making tea.
