SURVIVORS
Chaptre 95. Felix Ockhenliche,
That afternoon.
Tok..
There was a knock on Robert's door. Robert opened the door, and there appeared a servant standing in front of him.
"Mr Glenn wanted to meet with Mr. Robert and Dr. Chandra." the waiter explained.
"Ah, fine. I'll call Dr. Chandra in the next room for a moment" Robert replied.
The three men went down the stairs to the ground floor. The waiter led the two towards Glenn's study.
Tok..
The waiter knocked on the closed door.
"Get in." I heard an answer from inside.
The waiter opened the door and let Robert and Dr. Chandra in. Then the door closed again.
"Please sit down."
Glenn got up from his seat and greeted kindly.
Robert and Dr. Chandra sat down, ready to listen to what Glenn wanted to talk about.
"I went to my parents' house this afternoon. My father has been sick for a long time. But our healer still can't cure him. I was talking about your arrival with Dad. And after being persuaded, the father finally agreed to let Chandra's doctor examine him. Is the doctor ready?"
Glenn asked directly at the point. He doesn't like pleasantries very much.
"It's like this. I am a doctor. But I did not bring any inspection equipment with me. There are no medical devices like the ones we use in this world. I'm worried, if I can't help much."
Dr. Chandra explains the real condition. However, Dr. Chandra has no idea how the healer works in the fairy world. Is it like a traditional Chinese doctor who uses acupuncture or some kind of magic?
Glenn seemed to be thinking hard.
"As an early diagnosis, may I ask how your father's condition really is? Early pain and all?" ask Dr. Chandra who can't bear to see Glenn hold back in disappointment.
"Well, I'll say everything I know." replied Glenn.
They talked for a long time in that closed room.
As the dinner bell rang out, the three of them immediately got up.
"Well, it's time to eat. Let's go there together" Glenn asked.
In the dining room, all the team members and Randal were already waiting. All stood up as Glenn walked in, followed by Robert and Dr Chandra.
Ting..
Glenn tapped his cup until it clinkled. Before long all attention was directed at him.
"Well, tomorrow I'll take you all to visit my parents' residence. You guys must be tired of staying here, right" Glenn smiled.
"Can we see the atmosphere of the city? We want to know what the world's cities and markets are like." asked Niken eagerly.
Glenn nodded.
"of course. After the visit, we'll cross the city if you like." Glenn smiled broadly.
"Now please eat,"
Then the atmosphere of eating malan was more boisterous than usual. They are very enthusiastic because tomorrow they can see the beautiful city in the fairyland.
Until just before bed, Niken still continues to babble.
"I can't wait for tomorrow" his face looked excited.
Angel closed the pillow over his head, because he could not bear to hear Niken who continued to talk even though no one answered.
*
In the morning they were all well-groomed. All lined up towards the dining room as the breakfast bell rang out. Quickly the breakfast was not how soon it was spent. Glenn was nowhere to be seen at the dinner table. There was only Randal accompanying.
Randal points the way to the teleportation spot. A few moments later Glenn appeared. He wore different clothes this time and looked even more handsome.
Laras glanced at Angel whose face began to meet red. Angel simply bowed and hugged Laras' arm harder involuntarily.
"I can crumble into a peddle if all the women here fall in love with you" whispered Laras into Angel's ear.
Angel's face grew redder, and could only swerve to the level of the Baras who smiled seductively.
"Okay, we're starting."
Glenn's voice gave a cue. A bluish-green light surrounded the entire teleportation area. Then the light disappeared back.
"Welcome young master," greeted a middle-aged man with a warm smile.
"Uncle Houx, how are you? When did you get back from the border?" Glenn hugged the man no less warmly.
"I just arrived last night young master. Who're they?" asked uncle Houx pointing towards Robert and the others.
"Ah, these are my guests. I'd like to introduce you to my father" explained Glenn.
"We have arrived" Glenn said with a bright face.
"Welcome to the residence of master Felix Ockhenliche," uncle Houx bowed his body a hint of respect.
"Master's been waiting in the side garden with Madam."
A male servant approached Glenn.
"Good."
Glen continued his steps towards the park, followed by team member Robert.
In the beautiful garden, under the beauty of the orange flowers from the vines that cover the gazebo, there appears a man who began to age sitting casually in the company of a woman who still shows her beauty.
"Ayahanda, Mother," Glenn half squatted on the floor.
Robert and his team were surprised to see this ordinance. They immediately crouched down following what Glenn had done. It seems Glenn's parents aren't just anyone in the country. It looked as though Randal and Uncle Houx were on their knees as well.
The man's hand was raised.
"Stand up" he said in a weak voice, then coughed.
They all stood back up.
"Dad, how are you today."
Glenn approached his father. Kiss his mother's hand and get a kiss on her left and right cheek. So did his father.
Robert wanted to rise up to follow, but was unsure. So he glanced at Randal who remained standing in his place while shaking faintly.
Glenn introduced Team member Robert one by one. Glenn's mother and father were a little surprised to see Angelina, but were able to disguise their expressions quickly. Old Uncle Houx just regained consciousness, after being elbowed by Randal.
They were having a casual conversation when a servant led the healer into the room.
As usual she checked on Glenn's father's health development and gave him a prescription to prepare. When the waiter wanted to receive the prescription medicine as usual, but Glenn immediately grabbed the prescription paper.
"Dad, you've been sick for years, but I've never once made your medicine. This time allow me to boil the medicine myself for dad. Can I?" glenn asked seduce.
"As far as you are. Do what you want. You haven't been home in a long time. By boiling the medicine, then you'll be longer here."
Glenn's mother answered the question. His father just agreed.
"Thank you mother" Glenn looked overjoyed.
The physician finally left after giving some advice.
"Doctor Chandra, can you accompany me to boil the medicine?" ask Glenn diplomatically.
"Ah, of course. With pleasure."
Doctor Chandra nodded in understanding.
"You please have a conversation with your father and mother. Don't worry, they're very good." Glenn's smile grew to see his mother's suddenly enlarged eyes.
"Servant, take the road to the medicine-making place." Glenn ordered the waiter. They go on.
Glenn showed Chandra the prescription paper. But Chandra's doctor was at a loss to read the curly, ornate letters.
"How do you read this?" ask doctor Chandra innocently.
Glenn immediately stopped his way to hear the question.
"Can't you read?" glen's brows tightly linked. All feelings are coming towards him now. If Dr. Chandra can't give you a good reason, then it'll be bad.
"Our writing is different from this. Please get me a paper and a pen so I can write it down and understand what's written in this prescription" explained Dr. Chandra.
"alright. Waiter, get me a paper and pen later." Glenn said to his servant.
"Good young master. Please young master, this is the medicine storage room." The waiter unlocked the door of the medicine room.
They're inbound. The distinctive aroma of spices filled the room.
"Is all this medicine available?" glenn asked while handing over the recipe.
"I will prepare sir. Lots of stock, all there is. Yesterday Uncle Houx brought quite a large supply of medicinal ingredients back."
The servant took the medicinal ingredients deftly. They are arranged in a tray in the order of the recipe.
"Call Robert. These are all medicinal herbs, different from my treatment. Robert may be a little more savvy of spice medicine" whispered Dr. Chandra to Glenn.
"Now you call my guest Robert at my father's place, and bring him a paper and a pen. Hurry." Glenn ordered.
"Good young master." The waiter disappeared immediately.
"If it's not like this, how does a doctor prescribe medicine at your place?" Glenn wanted to know.
"In most countries in our world, the medicine provided by hospitals and prescribed by doctors is a factory drug that has been in the form of pills, capsules, tablets, syrups or injections. So we don't know what the real ingredients are in the medicine" I'm Chandra's doctor.
"Wahh, that's great. So the doctor just prescribe a drug for one disease and the patient just take the drug that is ready to drink? No need to be hard to boil and long huh?" Glenn was completely unexpected.
Then he asked what it was like to take pills, capsules and even injections, leaving him shocked.
"Injected?" the question is getting confused.
"The drug is a liquid, then inserted in a tube. At the end of the tube there is a hollow fine needle to place the medicine out. The needle is stuck into a vein, and the liquid medicine is pushed into the blood. It's called an injection, a drug injected with a needle directly into the blood."
Doctor Chandra patiently explained all of Glenn's questions.
