Following the incident of Hedrick not getting up and his condition worsening, Rita went out and called for a doctor. When the doctor arrived, he made an examination diagnosis before he prescribed something for him.
" His body condition is currently too weak because of excess loss of blood. He has also not eaten or drank anything for some days making his condition severe. Here is a prescription you should give to him before it gets out of hand." said the doctor as he took out a piece of paper and handed it to Rita.
" Thank you Doctor for your time. " thanked Rita with a slight bow of the head.
" Not a problem. It's my duty."said the doctor as he waved his hands.
" This way." Rita carried the doctor's bag as she led him out of the room.
A few moments later, Rita returned with a few herbs and headed out to prepare them. Holding the bowl of medicine on her hand, Rita held Hedrick up and began helping him take his medicine.
Unfortunately, Hedrick's body was too weak that he couldn't even swallow so the medicine just flowed out of his mouth down onto the bed and robes.
" How annoying. Now you can't even swallow medicine on your own. What am I now supposed to do?"complained Rita as she went deep in thought.
" I'll just blow the medicine into you. Hehehe... you thought you would die in my hands. Too bad your plan won't work with me here. " said Rita as she put her hands on her waist with a smile.
Following that she held the bowl and poured the liquid into her mouth. Placed her lips against his and blew the medicine into his mouth then down his throat.The procedure continued day after day for almost a week as until Hedrick slowly gained consciousness but Rita was not around. With his weak body and pale face.He slowly got up dressed up in new robes, organised the room,laid the bed and moved out of the room. He moved to the reception where a middle aged lady was seated looking at the tavern opposite the inn in deep thought.
" You should forget about him and move on.He no longer remembers you." said Hedrick as he looked at the direction of the tavern.
" Ohhh... seems you have gotten better.You were totally unconscious when that little girl brought you in."
" It was her fault that I was in such a state.All heroes love beauties."
" Hahahaha... when will you save a beauty like me."
" The day we meet again."
" By the way, how long has it been since I was brought in?"
" About one week I guess."
" Ohh...this seems a bit troublesome.Okay have a nice day Her majesty."waved Hedrick as he moved out of the room.
" What a sweet talker!" said the lady with a sweet smile.
" Aaa... wait a minute! How did he know who I was thinking about?"
Upon moving out, an aroma of delicious food spread through the air causing his stomach to have weird sounds.
" I should first go and have some food. I'm so hungry."said Hedrick.
~The Inn~
Rita moved into the room only to find a well organized room staring at her with no one inside.
' Why do I have a feeling that something is about to happen?Why do I feel I'm about to get angry?"murmured Rita to herself.
She checked the bathroom and toilet but no soul could be seen.
" Where on earth have you gone you bastard?" shouted Rita angrily.
She then quickly moved to the reception where the middle aged lady was seated quietly.
" Have you seen a young boy around 16 or 15 moving past here?" asked Rita anxiously.
" Ohh... it's you. He just moved out and said goodbye.He said you were the one who caused him to be in such a state." said the lady with a little laugh.
' Bastard I'm going to kill you.'
Looking at Rita's angry face, the lady giggled and then spoke.
" Don't get angry, I think he should be in the restaurant eating."
" Okay, thank you very much." said Rita as she took off.
" These young kids." said the lady while shaking her head.
~In the restaurant~
Hedrick was seated as the waiter arrived and simultaneously a angry face appeared before Hedrick.
" Two bowls of noodles and a jar of wine please." ordered Hedrick.
" Please a moment sir." the waiter said as he moved away.
Hedrick then turned and looked at Rita's face and was stunned for a moment before he regained his composure.
" Where did go without telling me?" asked Rita abruptly.
" Madam Rita or should I call you Rita." said Hedrick as he teased.But before she could reply he continued and he waved his hand.
" Whatever, I'm right in front of you.This is the only place I have so far gone to."
" Then why did you leave without telling me?"complained Rita not willing to lose out.
" Come on. First of all it's all because of you that I'm in this condition.Second, all you did was feed me medicine. Aaa... wait a minute!" said Hedrick as he suddenly looked serious and faced Rita in the eyes.
" I know I was very weak that I can even swallow. How did I manage to take the medicine?"
" Of course I use my mouth... to feed you" suddenly stopped mid her statement and looked at Hedrick whose lips were twitching holding in his laughter.
" What did you do?I don't believe you." said Hedrick and then burst out laughing.
" Why are you laughing?"
" I'm wondering if news spread out of how our dear teacher hit a student and then took advantage of him when he was weak.What could people think of you."
" You jerk.I swear...!"
" You... you better not tell anyone if not I'm going to kill you."
" okay! okay ma'am. My mouth is..." Hedrick gestured with the expression of zipping his lips.
" Okay let's first eat the food is here." said Hedrick as he pointed at the waiter.
