Chapter 08: Hospital.

Finally, Arthit was now in his car, and ready to pick Mint up from Knot's house.

While on the way, he couldn't help but to feel kind of anxious about earlier.

He was too busy to think about earlier that, he even forgotten that he was Infront of Knot's house.

He got out and was greeted by a beaming smile of Mint. "Papa!" She screamed and run towards him. Arthit bend down then opened his arms to hug Mint.

"Papa, i missed you, so much!" She said and kissed his cheek.

"Oh, you sure do." Knot said, with a pout.

"Did you bring any trouble to Uncle Knot?" Arthit asked, patting his daughter's head.

He stood up and faced Knot. "Thank you for taking care of Mint." He said and smiled.

"It's a pleasure. We also love Mint being here around." He said and pinched Mint's round fluffy cheeks.

"Hihi, uncle!" Everyone was found of the cuteness she shown.

"Alright, let's go now." He said and Mint nodded her head.

She run back inside to get her backpack and came back.

"Ready?" Arthit asked and Mint nodded her head.

The two bid a goodbye to the couple and gotten inside the car.

While upon buckling her seat belt, she suddenly asked her papa.

"Papa, why uncle Knot do not know mama?" She asked.

Arthit looked at her in shock. "You asked them?"

She nodded innocently. "Why papa?"

"N-nothing. It's just......" Arthit was now felt like he was thrown a bucket of water. He couldn't think of good alibi as for now.

"Well, mama....she....."

Luckily, Mint was always distracted so, Arthit found a way to change the topic.

"Oh, right. Mint, Nana asked how are you, earlier."

"Really, papa? You talked to Nana?" She asked with sparkling eyes. "Yes, and i told her, you are doing good today." He said and Mint smiled.

Oh, how this little munchkin missed her own grandmother.

On the way home, Arthit kept steeling some glance on Mint.

Arthit wasn't okay to lie to the both of them. In fact, he have a heavy heart, lying to the two. It was really troubling him everytime. But, he was left without a choice.

After Arthit reached their house, Mint already ran towards the door. Arthit chuckled to see this daughter of his getting excited.

He opened the door with his keys and took of their shoes. And put their bags to the sofa.

Mint run upstairs to her room to play, while Arthit was heading to the kitchen to grabbed a glass of water.

But then, he was startled when, his daughter shouted, "Ouch!"

He rushed up to her and when he entered the room, Mint was unconscious.

He rushed forward to pick her up and rushed her to the car. He gently lay down his daughter to the backseat and he went to the driver's seat.

He drove off to a near hospital.

The most nearest hospital was only a few miles away, so Arthit reached there before 30 minutes. He hurriedly pick Mint into a bridal style and rushed to the doctor.

"Help me, please!" He pleaded, the nurse then came to him with a stretcher, "Lay her here, sir." The nurse said, and Arthit did what he was told.

He layed her down, and the nurse rushed in to a room, Arthit was then, stopped by the nurse and told him to wait outside. And a doctor entered in.

Arthit was anxious. He was walking back and forth, trying to sneak a glance.

After a few moments, the doctor came out and the curtains were set in the sides. Arthit looked at his daughter who was laying into the stretcher, sleeping peacefully.

"How was my daughter, doctor?" He asked.

"Don't worry, Mr. It wasn't really serious at all. She just blacked out. She just had some trouble of breathing that caused her to black out. Don't worry, she'll regain consciousness soon." The doctor explained.

Arthit sighted of a relief, he thought, his daughter was in the worst condition. The doctor then, told him to leave and he nodded his head.

After the doctor left, he went forward to his daughter and sat next to her.

"Mint..." Looking at his daughter, laying infront of him, a tear escaped his eye.

He caressed her small hand and kissed it. He was happy that he knew Mint was okay. All his worries a while ago were vanished.

Holding her small cheeks, Arthit couldn't help but to smile.

After a while, Mint regained consciousness and asked her papa, "Where am i?"

"You are at the hospital, hunny. You've passed out." Arthit paused, "What happened, dear? You scared me, you know."

"I am sorry, papa. But, i was just reaching something from the shelf."

"Its okay, Mint. Just, never do that again, okay? If you need something from ghe top shelf, you could just call me instead."

Mint nodded and smiled at Arthit who was nearly crying. But, just as the father-daughter have the moment, thw doctor entered and told them that, they could go home since there will be no more observation that will do.

But, before the two leave, the doctor reminded her to be more careful and Mint nodded and said, "I will, Mr. Doctor!"

Arthit and Mint finally reached their house.  Arthit then he asked Mint if she wanted to eat something, because it was getting late and the two haven't eaten anything yet.

Mint then said, "I want steam eggs!"

Arthit then, made his way to the kitchen, holding Mint's hand.

Mint sat down to her chair and watched her papa cooking.

Mint was all fascinated on how Arthit cooked and even complemented him.

After that, the two ate their dinner like usual and Mint was talking all that happened to her today at Knot's house. On how, Tew nearly burnt the kitchen just to chase their dog.

They just talked to it for hours and they didn't even notice that it was getting late.

Mint had told Arthit a lot while he, was just silent and, when Mint asked about his day was,  he just simply replied with, "It was good."
