Plop! Larry's penaccidentally fell to the ground.
What's wrong with me today? Why do I feel so weak? He rubbed his temples and thought to himself. Get a hold of yourself, Larry!
"Larry, are you okay?" Jessica asked softly as she walked in. She also placed breakfast on his table as she stared at his tired face.
"I'm fine." Larry shook his head.
"I bought you some breakfast. Here, you should eat," Jessica said as she handed it to Larry. However, Larry seemed to be in pain.
"What's wrong, Larry? Are you sick?" Jessica raised her voice worriedly.
For the past few days, Larry was unable to do anything as he had been feeling very weak and tired.
"Let's go. I'll take you to the hospital," Jessica said as she helped him to his feet and walked out of the office.
"What happened?" Caspian quickly asked as he ran towards them.
"Larry doesn't feel very well," Jessica explained. Caspian nodded as they both rushed him to the hospital.
Larry was arranged to take IV drips as he lay in bed. His eyes were closed and he looked exhausted.
"What's the matter with him, doctor? Is there something wrong?" Jessica grabbed the doctor's arm tightly and asked anxiously.
"He's overexerted himself. Please don't let him stay up all night again as his body has reached its limit!" The doctor spoke softly.
Jessica felt very sad as she looked at him.
Then, Larry finally woke up after a long time as he muttered repeatedly, "Joan, Joan, Joan..."
What a sweet couple! You're in terrible condition yet you're still thinking of her. Jessica sighed as she tucked his blanket.
