Hospital Life 2

The morning after hearing Lettie's story, I woke up in bed unable to move.

Not because my condition had worsened. Lettie and Miu were sleeping on either side of me.

Last night I had carried the sleeping Lettie to Miu's bed after she finished crying, then gone to sleep alone. 

So how did this happen?

"Hey, you two get up. It's morning."

I raise my upper body to avoid shoving the two of them out of the bed and call out.

But besides mumbling incoherently, they show no signs of waking. Alright, time to mess with them!

Poke poke. Pinch pinch. Pat pat... Hmm, I see.

Yup yup, nothing out of the ordinary. Good good. Both are the picture of health. 

But I should check just a bit more to be sure.

Just then Miu's eyes fluttered open and she met my gaze.

"Big brother? We can't go farther yet, okay?"

"Hm? What are you talking about? I was just going to fix your ruffled clothes..."
