– What am I, rest! My brother comes in tomorrow.
Hearing my brother’s two words, Cuong was very surprised and asked:
– Older brother? Who is your brother?
The girl was stunned to realize that she hadn’t introduced herself yet, so she softened her voice and said:
– I forgot to introduce myself to you, I am Mr. Khac’s sister Hanh. I work here so he asked me to take care of him while he was away.
Because Khac never told the story of having a sister, Cuong said with some doubt:
– Are you really Khac’s sister? Why have I never seen her mentioned before?
– Well, doesn’t my brother have to tell you everything?
He looked back at the girl talking to him. She did indeed resemble Khac, but the way she talked made him uncomfortable. It feels like this girl doesn’t like me. Taking a breath to gather courage, Cuong raised his head and asked Hanh:
– I have a feeling, it seems like you don’t like me.
– That’s right, because I was worried about you, my brother was injured and couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night, and had to come to your house to find you to see the situation. My brother’s health is not good, so I have to stay up all night to take care of him. Please put yourself in my position and feel how you can stand by and watch your only relative regardless of his health, taking care of someone who doesn’t know how to take care of himself. Can you like someone like that?
Only now did Cuong realize that this girl didn’t like him because she missed her brother. Unexpectedly, there was someone who loved his brother so much. Feeling jealous of this colleague, Cuong smiled wryly and said to Hanh:
– I’m sorry! Sorry for making everyone worry. Thank you two people for taking care of me recently.
************************************************
Hanh said angrily:
– No need to thank me. Next time you want to die, go a little further away! Otherwise, jump into the river, jump off the building, or hang yourself to die quickly. Don’t live half dead like this, just to make others suffer!
Cuong was very surprised by Hanh’s words. Until now, he had never seen a girl so stubborn and cruel. Furthermore, he is also a doctor. He said softly:
– Really sorry! I will take good care of myself, I will definitely not let you see me again. Thank you so much.
Seemingly satisfied, Hanh smiled and said:
– That would be good too! The hospital offers a place to lie down. And the cemetery also saves a lot of land. Stop resting! I also visit other patients.
Hearing what this girl said, Cuong didn’t know what to say except to laugh.
– Thank you! Take care of me.
Hanh had approached the door, she stopped, glanced at him sideways,
– From the moment I woke up until now, I thank you a lot. Save your energy! Remember to lie still and not move.
Having said that, Hanh walked out the door, leaving Cuong lying there alone. This time, I don’t know if it was because of sleepiness, because of the medicine, or because of exhaustion, Cuong fell asleep without realizing it. When he woke up, he saw Hanh and Khac standing there. Seeing that he was awake, Khac quickly went over to ask:
– How do you feel inside? Does it help at all?
Cuong was about to sit up, but Khac pushed his shoulder down and said:
– Do not move. What if there’s a problem?
Hanh told Khac:
– Assured! He can’t die, don’t worry.
Khac turned around and blamed his sister:
– This girl! Can’t you speak nicely?
Hanh pouted:
– You said it very kindly.
– You want me to go home and tell mom, right?
Her voice was a bit sulky:
– Why do you always bring your mother out to scare me?
– Because of your unpleasant personality, only your mother can cure it.
She pretended to be angry and said:
– Huh! Don’t bother talking to him anymore. I’m going back to sleep.
– Oh, don’t you have breakfast?
She did not turn back, waved her hand to signal and said:
– No, eat it yourself. Every time he brings food, it’s thanks to him. I can’t swallow.
Khac smiled and shook his head as he watched Hanh disappear. He is really helpless over this younger sister. A little sister full of thorns, but her heart is softer than water.
– Your sister is really special!
At this moment, I turned back,
– Yes, he’s a bit special, his mouth always makes others uncomfortable, but his heart is very kind. – Having said that, Dac turned around and asked Cuong: – How are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?
– I’m fine, I feel very well. Please help me complete the procedures for me to be discharged from the hospital! Lying here is so boring! I want to go home and rest.
With a stern face he said:
– Let you go home, so you can drink more alcohol?
Strengthening neck tendons:
– I don’t drink.
Khac was a bit angry when he heard Cuong speak. He frowned and shouted:
– You didn’t drink but your stomach bled to the point of fainting and had to go to the emergency room?
Knowing he was wrong, Cuong stammered and said:
– I…
– Stop talking too much! I’ve decided, you stay in the hospital for a few days to get better! I told everyone at the hospital not to let you leave the hospital.
– You…
– What are you? Stay here, please. Oh, I forgot, the creator Hanh spoke a bit harshly, but it didn’t mean anything. Don’t take it to heart!
– That reminds me, why didn’t you say you have a younger sister? It made me think you only had a younger brother.
Khac said in surprise:
– I don’t have a younger brother. There is only one of them.
Cuong’s facial expression appeared in many states at the same time. Half surprised, not believing my ears, half doubting Khac’s words. Cuong asked again:
– So the god-damned younger sister, the evil girl that you often talk about, refers to her?
– But who else should I say? Do you think it’s a boy?
– Yes, I thought it was a boy.
Khac laughed loudly, patted his shoulder and said:
