In The Eyes of the Beholder

"What is wrong with her?" Max asked as Sae came out of the room where Aliya laid with Ellie.

"I don't know." She said, looking just as confused as Max is. "She seems like she has a fever but her temperature is normal."

"We ran some tests and sent them to the laboratory." Ellie said, "Hopefully they will be able to tell us what is wrong."

Sae placed her hand on Max's cheeks, "Don't worry too much right now ok? We will do whatever we can to help her."

"Thank you." He said, looking at them.

He felt impatient and at the same time very annoyed with what is happening at the moment.

But he did not want to take out his anger at the two as they are trying their best and he knew that. He just wished he knew what was happening.

"Let her rest for now. I will be looking over her ok?" Sae said smiling softly at him.

"Sure." He said, looking into the room at his sister breathing heavily. "Shouldn't I look after her?"
