Chapter 3- the visit to the doctor

1st April 1997

Junxi birthday and April fools day

Queen Elizabeth hospital.

Jun Xiong and Mei Mei brought Junxi for his regular checkup in the hospital.

That day Meixue also came to the hospital to look for her uncle, Junxi doctor, Kenneth Wong.

She walked towards Kenneth office and saw Junxi with his parents at the blood test room. She heard them scolding him and pointing their fingers on his head.

In the blood test room.

Mei Mei kept pointing her finger at Junxi's head….

"See! What kind of son you have?! If not because of my dead sister I also wouldn't bother to marry you and look after her useless son!" Mei Mei said angrily.

"Guo junxi! You’re are such a jinx! Why are you so useless?! We have given you so many kinds of treatments and pills yet there are no any changes in your illness!? What have you done and what kind of friends you have?! Doctor Wong even said it maybe worsen?!" Junxiong asked angrily.

Junxi kept crying and never replied.

Meixue overheard everything and dashes in shouting at Junxi’s parents.

"How can you say these things to him!? He is your only son!" Meixue asked angrily.

"Xiao xue, please wait outside of my office first. These are my clients and patient. You will affect them." Kenneth said.

Junxi pushed them away and ran out of the hospital. He hide himself at the hospital top floor garden. Meixue rushed up to the top floor.

At the hospital top floor garden.

Junxi was sitting on the edge, crying. Meixue has never seen him cried before.

"Jun..Junxi, are you alright? Please come down from the edge first, we can talk things over.” Meixue asked.

"Go away! Get out of my sight! I don't want to see anyone!" Junxi shouted loudly.

This moment, Meixue hugged him tightly. He cried on Meixue arms for almost fifteen mins.

"Are you feeling better now? My uncle is still waiting for you to go to his office to listen to your medical report. Don't you want to listen to your medical report?" Meixue asked.

"Nothing much to know. My mum passed away when I was ten years old. My dad and my step mother, which is my mum sister brought me up. My mum died of leukaemia. I maybe diagnosed with leukaemia too. My dad have been abusing me since my mum passed away. He always felt that I am a nuisance, and I was the one who caused my mum to die." Junxi replied crying.

"What kind of father he is!? Crazy old man!? And where are your two best friends?! Shouldn’t they be accompanying you today?!" Meixue asked angrily.

"I..I asked them not to come with me today. I am meeting them in the evening for dinner. Do you want to join us?" Junxi asked.

"If you go down with me to listen to your health report I will accompany you the whole day." Meixue replied.

Junxi nodded his head and went down with Meixue. His parents were still in the doctor's office.

Meixue and Junxi knocks on the door and walks into the office.

In Kenneth office.

"Who is she?!" Jun Xiong asked sternly.

Suddenly Junxi grabbed Meixue's hand...

"She is my girlfriend. We are together for three months already." Junxi said.

Meixue got a shocked and pull off his hands….

"Junxi, stop talking nonsense here. I…I am here only to see my uncle. We are just friends." Meixue replied softly.

This moment, Junxi forcefully hugged Meixue and kissed her.

She got stunned and slapped his face hardly. Junxiong wanted to slap her back, but Junxi shielded her and got slapped very hard till his mouth bleed badly.

"Junxi! Why did you protect her?! She slapped you!" Junxiong asked angrily.

Junxi pulled Meixue and ran out of the hospital.

Outside of the hospital.

It started to rain. Meixue and Junxi were standing in the rain.

"Are you crazy?! I am only 13, and you tell your dad I am your girlfriend?!" Meixue pulled Junxi shirt and asked.

"But I really wished you can be my girlfriend. Can you please just act as my girlfriend?" Junxi asked.

Meixue have yet reply to him, but he already fainted on the spot.

Junxi was pushed to the emergency theatre.

Outside of the emergency theatre.

"Are you really Junxi's girlfriend?" Mei Mei asked.

"Yes." Meixue replied softly.

"You can forget about your relationship with my son! My son may not even live till 21 years old! Doctor Kenneth will need to take another test for him which is a bone marrow extraction. He suspect Junxi may have blood cancer, Leukaemia." Junxiong said.

"So what if Junxi have leukaemia?! I am still willing to be his girlfriend! I will regret to be with him!” Meixue replied seriously.

One hour later.

Kenneth came out of the emergency theatre.

"Uncle, how is Junxi?!" Meixue asked anxiously.

"We will be preparing him to take a bone marrow test tomorrow morning. He is having a fever now. Xue, please accompany him today. He kept calling your name when he is in coma in the operation theatre." Kenneth replied.

Junxiong and Mei Mei looked sternly at Meixue.

"Mr and Mrs Guo, Junxi needs some friends to accompany him during the extraction cos it will be very very painful." Kenneth said.

"Whatever you wish! As long as he is willing to do the extraction test!" Junxiong angrily replied.

In the ward

Meixue siting next to Junxi.

"A reminder to you, you can only accompany him tonight. After that please leave him!" Junxiong said.

"Of course I will." Meixue replied.

An hour later, Junxiong and Mei Mei left the hospital.

A few minutes later, Junxi phone rang. Meixue answer it….

”Hey bro! It’s already 5 pm! Where are you?! Are you still in the hospital?!” Mingguang asked anxiously.

“Hi Mingguang, I am Meixue. Junxi fainted and is still in coma. I doubt he will be able to meet you and Jiacong tonight.” Meixue replied.

”Meixue?!” Mingguang asked surprisingly.

Jiacong snatches over his phone…

”Hey Meixue!? What are you doing in the hospital?!” Jiacong asked anxiously.

“I happen to be in the hospital to visit uncle Kenneth. Coincidentally, Junxi family doctor is also uncle Kenneth.” Meixue replied.

”it’s already close to 6. You are not going back to Peng Zhou?” Jiacong asked.

”I am staying in the hospital to look after Junxi, he is doing the bone marrow extraction test tomorrow morning.” Meixue replied.

”Oh, ok.” Jiacong said.

Half an hour later, at 6pm.

Junxi woke up and saw Meixue sleeping next to his arms. He lightly touched her face…..

"Meixue, you are so beautiful." Junxi said to himself smilling.

"Oh, you are awake?" Meixue asked.

"Didn't you said you hate me why are you still here?!" Junxi asked angrily.

Meixue hold Junxi hands...

"Junxi, I will accompany you here tonight. Whatever you want I will try to fulfil you, but you must agree to one thing. You have to do the bone marrow extraction test tomorrow." Meixue replied.

"I am thirsty, I want to drink water." Junxi said.

Meixue poured a glass of water for him. Junxi drank up the glass of water.

"Junxi, my uncle have arrange to do a bone marrow extraction at 9am tomorrow. He suspect you may have early stage of leukaemia." Meixue replied.

Junxi threw the glass on the floor.

The nurses heard glass shattering sound from Junxi ward and came in and see…..

"Is everything fine?" The nurse asked.

"Fine, he is just throwing tantrums." Meixue replied.

"I am not doing! I would rather die than do that horrible extraction!" Junxi said loudly.

Meixue immediately locks the door.

"What do you want me to do if you go for the extraction?" Meixue asked.

"I want to kiss you and hug you. I…I am very scared! I scared I will die!” Junxi replied crying.

At this moment, Meixue took off her jacket and blouse, leaving only her bra.

”Please wear back your blouse. I do not meant to ask you to take off your clothes. I just need someone to hug me to sleep tonight. I feel very unsecured.” Junxi said.

Meixue wore back her blouse and lie beside junxi. She hugs him tightly.

”Does this feel better for you? Don’t be afraid of the test tomorrow. I will accompany you to do the test.” Meixue asked.

Junxi never reply and hugs her back, kisses her passionately.
