Chapter 15 - Lover?

...

As soon as thought about it, I couldn't help but act on it. I took out the business card given by Sis Lin and turned it around to read the number.

I dialed that number and waited for the call to be picked up. It kept ringing for a bit, before it was finally picked up and a very feminine and charming voice came out from the other side.

<Hello. This is Doctor Lindie. Who is this?>

I couldn't understand why, but happiness seemed to explode within me as I heard her voice.

Sis Lin's voice sounded very exhausted though. Being a Doctor, she must be very busy at the moment with patients in long queues.

"B-Big Sis Lin? It's me, Carene."

<Carene?! Ah, so you finally remembered your Sis Lin, huh? How are you now? The appointment of yours is tomorrow, I think>

Sis Lin teased me as she tried to ask about my well being.

S-She remembered about me.. I guess she really never meant to ignore me.

Back in the past, I was really close to her when I was younger, probably 7 or 8 years old I think. I didn't have any siblings, so I always treated Big Sis Lin like a real sister. Heck, even she saw me as a naughty younger brother.. I hope she did.

What really hurt me though was that, like everyone else in my life, she too walked away from me so suddenly.

Even if she went to study, she could have visited me once.. even a post card would have been good enough.

All these years, I always thought that I did something wrong and drove her away from me. I thought that she didn't want to see me again.

I suffered so many sleepless nights in anxiety, hoping for her to return.. some day.

And now, she suddenly became so close to me all of a sudden.

Why did she left so suddenly without saying anything?!

Because of my past experiences, I am really scared thinking about the possibility of others abandoning me.

I don't want to be left behind... I don't want to be alone again.

"Yes. But, I came to my College today and... I need a Medical Certificate for my leave without notice." I reclaimed my senses and spoke about the events today.

<Oh? I am leaving for home right now. Where are you right now? Are you still at the Campus?>

"Un. It's the Saint Albert University. A-Are you really coming here right now?"

I had a really hard time hiding the surprise in my voice. Sis Lin wants to come over?

<Of course I am. We can discuss everything at my home later. Wait for me. I am arriving there at top speed!>

"D-Don't get injured alright! Drive safely." Her last remark really freaked me out. I certainly don't want her to suffer any mishap because of me.

The call became disconnected as I put my phone back in my pockets.

I only have to kill some time now, huh? I haven't eaten anything since the morning yet though. Let's get something from the cafeteria.

...

There were long queues in the Student's Cafeteria, so I had to get my lunch at the Teacher's Cafeteria instead.

The difference is that the food here is way better, but at a cost. The Student's Cafeteria is funded by the local government so it's obvious why it would be so crowded.
