If The Moon Can Be Counted As A Star - Chapter 14
The walls that were made from her past and present pressures was gradually taking over her emotional state. She does not even know that it was there all along as she grows up.
Xiao Mei Zhi glanced around the room, “You can let go of me now, Mother. I do not feel comfortable.” Noting that there were audience , for her it was already to much of attention.
Misses Zhi laughed good-naturedly as she released her, “I did not know my daughter is a shy person.”
The Doctors inside the room held a respect at Misses Zhi. Xiao Mei Zhi could tell that in their gazes.
Doctor Gmeis stepped forward, “So how are you feeling little Zhi?” She was not ready to be called ‘Little Zhi’. She looked at her mother to remind Doctor Gmeis about her name.
Misses Zhi understand her daughters eye gesture, “Yu jie, she does not like to be called little Zhi.” Doctor Gmeis smiled at her strangely, “Alright I shall call you, Tiny cactus!”
And at that point Xiao Mei Zhi does not know how to make Doctor Gmeis stop calling her with those different names. However, she responded back to her question, “I feel fine now.” She observed the hard-shoe on her left foot. It was protecting the bandage inside of it as it also provides protection from her wound.
“And your fever?”
“It calmed down, I guess.”
“Then our Tiny Cactus can go home!”
Misses Zhi glanced at her daughter and said, “Just let her call you whatever she wants. It would not hurt you. So do not think too much about it, ok?”
“Besides you would not stay on your old house now.” Doctor Frei naturally said it as if Xiao Mei Zhi would agree with it. This Doctor Frei , he was made to be confident but he can not just directly say that to her! Where would they even go and stay now?
Xiao Mei Zhi had to bite back a curse. She was not used to saying ‘Takoyaki’ as a curse. But it made her calm down when she highly disagrees. But even she was like that her mother knows what to do with it.
Misses Zhi lessened her gazed at Doctor Frei, “Give her five days to decide.” The only thing that matters to Misses Zhi was her daughters decision. She can not force her to do something that would be against her will.
Doctor Frei glanced at Xiao Mei Zhi, “I will give her two days to decide and that is final.” Misses Zhi was caught of guard, she was about to stand up from the bed but Xiao Mei Zhi stop her.
She did not dare to be mad and could only obediently agree the two days of deciding whether to move out or to stay. But what was there to think? She was not interested in moving out.
“I want to stay!” She bravely said her choice but Doctor Frei only handed a card to her mother with his phone number written down on it as his first response to her.
And his second response was, “Your mind will change within two days.. Just call me if you can not handle the pressure.”
