After a few minutes, Hugo knocked on the door. Augustus opened it and took the tray containing porridge from him.
Lucia assembled the mini table on the bed and Augustus placed the tray.
"Let me help you." Lucia said as she picked the spoon contained with porridge and blew it gently.
When the temperature is right, she brought it to Louise's lips and she ate it obediently.
This made Lucia smile.
Louise then wondered who she was.
"I'm your nanny. I was the one who took care of you during this five years." Lucia said.
"Five years?" Louise couldn't believe it. She thought she was just sleeping not long.
"Yes. I will tell you more when you are fully healed." Lucia cut the remaining questions she had in her mind but this didn't stop Louise from asking other questions.
"Then, how old am I now?" Her gaze contain the naivety of a young girl.
"You are about to turn 18 in new year." Lucia said with much difficulty.
The different emotions that she had in her came surging in form of tears.
"Why are you crying?" Louise asked innocently.
"I'm just happy that you finally woke up." Lucia scooped another spoon of porridge for her.
Louise obediently ate it.
"Don't cry, you're wasting your beauty..." Louise had a cheeky smile on her.
This made Lucia laugh a little.
Augustus stayed silent. He was sitting on the sofa while he intensely gazed at her. It was like he was engraving all her emotions and actions in his soul.
His eyes never left her.
Louise frowned. She stared at the man who was staring at her intensely.
"Who is he pretty sister?" Louise decided to call Lucia that and asked her.
It took long while before Lucia answered.
Pretty sister?
"Well, that's..." Lucia didn't know how to explain things to her.
"I'm Augustus." The man said. He didn't say anything else.
"Hello." Louise smiled at him. "Are you a friend?" She asked after.
"En. I am." The man answered.
She happily ate the porridge from Lucia after confirming Augustus' stance.
After she finished eating, Lucia took the mini table off from the bed and put away all the dishes.
Silence permitted through the air but it didn't take long when there was a knock on the door.
Augustus stood up and opened the door. Brandon was panting but his excitement and joy couldn't be hidden.
He walked towards the bed and put his duffel bag on the sofa along the way.
He sat beside the bed and stared at the young woman across him.
He was glad. Really, really glad thar she finally woke up.
He tried to calm himself as he is a professional.
"Hello, I'm Dr. Lei." He introduced himself.
"Hello Dr. Lei." Louise smiled.
"Do you remember anything?" He asked gently. "Your name, do you remember?" He added.
"No. Pretty Sister told me my name..." Louise said. "Am I dying Dr. Lei?" She asked while panicking.
"No you're not. I tried my best to heal you so nothing will happen to you." Dr. Lei smiled and said.
"Come, let me check you if you are ill or not." He playfully said but he placed his stethoscope over her clothes.
The cool metal made her jolt and her fine baby hairs stood up.
After some time, Brandon withdrew his apparatus.
"Nothing's wrong with you so you will not die." He said..
"I thought I'm dying Dr. Lei. Some men chased me... And I'm afraid." She said while her voice quivered.
