Rhehan opened his eyes widely staring at the dangerous looking people around him. Holy s.h.i.+t!!! Are they going to beat me? Or worse they are going to make me promise s.h.i.+tty stuff! I am dead! Oh G.o.d! I did ask for a family, but I never asked for the complications and boring lectures they bring along! What should I do? Maybe if I pretend to have lost my memory? Will it work? It is worth a try!
"Ummm! Who...who..are you all?" Rhehan frowned looking at the four angry birds standing around him.
They all frowned, looking at each other in confusion.
"Why is he asking that?" Lillian frowned gaping at the boy in horror.
"Rhehan! It"s me Master Lee! That"s your mother Lizie and you aunt Lilly!" Xio Lee, pointed out his finger towards each one, looking at the boy"s reaction carefully.
"Ughh? Really! I don"t seem to remember anything!" Rhehan frowned looking at Xio Lee. He was already feeling quite energised due to the long hours of glucose intake. He was not really, having any dizziness or any weakness anymore. But, he then started to pretend as if he was in great pain. "Ahhh! My vision is so blurred and my stomach hurts!" Rhehan placed his hands on his stomach and frowned.
"I will go and call the doctor". Lillian panicked and rushed out of the room, instantly.
She rushed outside towards the doctor"s office, knocking its door rapidly. "Doctor! Doctor! Please come fast!"
The aged doctor hurriedly opened the door, looking at Lillian. "What happened mam?"
"Rhehan...Rhehan has lost his memory! Also, he is in terrible pain. His ...his vision is also blurred!" Lillian panicked, while rus.h.i.+ng back to the room, along with the doctor.
"Huh?" The doctor frowned listening to Lillian"s words. Amnesia? In dehydration? Thats a first! Let"s see, what the boy is upto now!
They both entered the room and saw everybody was looking at Rhehan with tense and teary eyes. Rose was sitting in one corner, almost on the verge of crying, looking at Rhehan and Xio Lee was extremely restless, sitting besides Rhehan holding his hand, lovingly. Elizabeth was sitting on the other side, caressing his hair.
Rhehan was secretly enjoying all this attention, not willing to tell the truth at all now. Ahhhh! That"s life!! Just enjoy!! Father holding hand. Mother patting my head, wife looking with loving eyes. Wow! I think, I can continue this for a few more days and then pretend to be fine all of a sudden!
Lillian too sat down besides Rhehan, holding his other hand.
Rhehan grinned further, inwardly. Let us not forget aunt c.u.m mother-in- law, too holding my hand. This is so awsome! You are so brainy Rhehan! I am so proud of myself at times!
The doctor stepped foreward, looking at the dramatic people sitting besides Rhehan. He rolled his eyes looking at them and stepped closer to study Rhehan"s face.
