    George took out the papers and looked through them carefully. He also grabbed the imagery and


    inspected it against a projector. Then, he put everything back on his desk and looked at us.


    He smiled, amused by our anxiousness. He smirked so brightly. His ruby lips parted like at blossoming


    red peony.


    Colin and Felix were both handsome men, but they were attractive in their own ways.


    Felix was schrly while Colin was flirty. And George was simply exuberant.


    “So George, can you do it? What’s the chance of sess?” asked Matthew.


    “It’s not aplicated case. If I operate on him, I’ll say more than 90%. However, I need to conduct a


    comprehensive checkup on him before surgery.”


    I almost jumped from my seat and cheered. But Colin pulled me down and continued politely, ” Mr.


    George, what will happen if the 10% urs?”


    George nced at us, surprised. Then, he uttered, “I’m very confident in my own skill. However, I didn’t


    say 100% because oftentimes, this kind of case requires luck and human cooperation.”


    Then, he threw us a look of bemusement.


    “So, do you want to take your chances?” George lifted his chin proudly. “If yes, you’ll check in now.


    We’ll perform a check–up and prepare everything. I’m free the morning of the day after


    tomorrow.”


    Colin and I waited for Felix’s answer. He was the patient here. Even a skillful doctor had to rely on the


    cooperation of his patient.


    Felix raised his head and answered, “Yes.”


    Then, we scrambled to get Felix admitted. Colin made several trips between the school and the


    hospital. Matthew saw that we needed help, so he called Helen to assist us.


    I took out time to notify my parents and Felix’s parents. They were over the moon and said they would


    drive here. They would arrive in the afternoon at thetest. Aunt Mel was overjoyed. When she heard


    that Matthew had helped Felix, she cried and kept saying thanks.


    She didn’t have to thank anyone. Everyone wanted to help Felix. Besides, he got injured because of


    me.


    It was nearly 3:00 pm when Felix was checked into a single ward. None of us had time for

    lunch. That said, we were all very excited. No one made a fuss about hunger.


    I was exhausted. I had never been this busy before, so I sat on the chair and rested.


    Helen suggested we get food together. But Matthew said no and left with Helen, saying that he had a


    family gathering at night. He said we should use the time to rest properly. The meal could be saved for


    another day. It didn’t have to be on that day.


    Once Felix fell asleep, Colin woke me up, fed me some water, and opened a packet of bread so that I


    could nourish myself. We leaned against the chair and whispered to each other.


    “Felix will be cured tomorrow. Are you happy, Colin?”


    “Of course. Dad and Mom will be happy too. But there’s something else I’m happy about. Do. you know


    what it is?”


    I knew the answer, but there was no way I’d say it.


    “What?”


    “Don’t y dumb, you little devil.” Colin nibbled on my earlobes. His warm breath tickled my cheek.


    I dodged his assault and insisted on having him borate.
