" Okay... Mmm... Okay" the doctor chanted as he examined Carter's mouth with a flashlight.

" And... Okay" he said turning the flashlight off and then turning to look at us while Carter closed her mouth.

" Soooo...." Louis began and the doctor cleared his throat.

" Well, it looks like the lisp isn't gone yet" he began.

" Wait what?" Harry said in shock.

" What do you mean it isn't gone yet?" Liam asked and the doctor took a glance at Carter before looking at us.

" A lisp doesn't just take a short time to heal, it actually takes a maximum of three months, but in serious cases it can be extended" the doc explained.

" So you mean, she's back to stuttering again?" Harry asked and the doctor nodded

" Absolutely... But don't lose hope, with constant communication, all will be well" the doctor said before leaving the room.

I looked over at Carter and saw that her eyes were already teary and I went over to her and gave her a warm hug.

" It's okay, C, youll do better" I said then she sniffed. Oh no she's crying.

" But I thought it wa...s g... gone, w...why n...now?" She asked and the boys came over at hugged her.

" Hey almond, no need to cry, you'll be fine" Harry said trying to calm her down but she just seemed lost in her problem.

" Sweetie" Liam wiped her face with his hand right before giving her a kiss on the forhead.

" Come on, let's go get ice cream" Louis said before lifting Carter and putting her on his waist.

Then we all left the kiddies ward then the hospital.

" Feel any better?" I asked my sister and she nodded with a little smile as she ate her strawberry flavored ice cream while I ate a vanilla flavored one.

" Look Carter, I know you're not happy with what the doctor said but believe us, we're gonna be there for you, we're gonna support you and we believe that you'll be well again." Niall said and the boys murmured in agreement.

" T...thank you... So much" Carter said and we all smiled at her.

" And besides there is something we'd like to tell you girls" Harry began therefore catching Carter's and I attention.

" Well considering that you girls have been with us for a while, we've decided to give a part of childhood that may be a memorable experience for you" Louis said and to be honest, I was so confused.

" What do you mean?" I asked then the boys shared a look. Well something's fishy here.

" You girls..." Niall began.

" Will be..." Then Liam.

" Attending..." Then Louis .

" School." Harry ended the sentence and my eyes and mouth went wide.

" SCHOOL?!?" I screamed and they were all taken aback by my sudden outburst.

" Yes" Louis nodded and I sank into the couch.

" Why?" I asked.

" We want to give you a part of childhood, that's why" Harry said and I sighed.

" Is anything wrong?" Niall asked. I thought for a moment then shook my head. I wasn't ready to tell them what's wrong.

" When do we start?" I asked.

" Monday" they all said. Well today's Thursday soooo okay.
