"You shouldn't have waited for so long you know

"You shouldn't have waited for so long you know. If it wasn't for my nagging, I bet you would have never consulted."

-Lisa complained as I packed my medical reports into my college bag.

"I am just fine."

-I sighed for the 100th time today.

"Well, that's not exactly what your MRI report says."

-She arched her eyebrow, displeased. And sighed again.

Apparently, two days back I got a bursitis at my right knee. Though initially I ignored it, it worsened for the very next day, making it literally difficult for me to even fold my leg and walk properly. When I consulted the nurse in the medical clinic of the campus, she advised that it's better to visit the nearby hospital. Though I wasn't much fascinated about it, Lisa's constant grumbling gave me no choice. Anyways, the doctor's examination led to several tests, one being MRI. I don't know why he prescribed all these tests in the first place, almost emptying my wallet. Thank god I had my scholarship to coverup all these hospital bills.

"It's just a tiny ligament tear Lisa. Calm down. It will heal all by its own."

"Not if you strain your leg again."

"You know how I am into sport activities. This is common for such individuals."

-I let her know calmly. Yet, she bore a worried look on her face.

"What now?"

-I asked.

"It's just...I was thinking about something that the doctor said to me earlier, while you were changing your patient gown."

-She mumbled out, tone quite upsetting.

"Did he? Well, lets hear it then."

-I grinned, paying my whole attention to her playfully.

"He said that when he was running tests on you, he found something concerning. Like, there are signs that your bones were broken in several places and stuck back together."
