A boy who grew into a robot

chapter 5

Mum was that worried she took me straight after our conversation and forgot to take the Chicken out of the oven. Mum was driving like she was trying to win the Grand Prix!
"Mum slow down we are going to get pulled over by the police if your not careful!" I shouted.
"The police is the last of my worries son"
We arrived at the doctors in a lightning speed of 10 minutes and I didn't want to go in. Butterflies were flying around in my stomach like i was on a swirly rollercoaster. The palms of my hands was as wet as a ocean and it was like I froze in time at the entrance of the doctors. Just staring at all the poorly people in the waiting room in a world of my own and I felt like I was barricaded in a prison with just my thoughts as my cellmate.
"Come on sweetie they won't bite you." Mum says trying to boost my confidence.
We walk in and mum talks to the reception lady and we take a seat. We waited for 20 minutes and then we finally got shouted "Jack Peterson please?" A nurse said.
Mum and I walked in and sat down.
"What seems to be the problem today?"says the nurse.
I was going to try and explain but before I could get a word in mum already blurted it all out. The nurse examined me right away and did lots of tests and we got the results.
"Okay so I don't want to frighten you but we don't know exactly what is wrong with you and we have never seen this on a patient before but we do have some good news and we know that it's something to do with your DNA in your body,we are going to give you some medicines to try and slow down the metal process."
We thank the doctor very much and I walk out carrying a bag of medicines. We arrived at home and dad was there washing the pots from dinner.
"Don't worry I left you two your dinner on the counter." He smiled.
it was 7pm so we had dinner and I went straight to bed after that. I laid in bed and I could hear my mum and dad having a conversation about me.
"What on earth are we going to do! I think our son is turning into a robot!"Mum panicked.
"Well they haven't said that he's a robot have they? So let's just wait until they get a proper diagnosis,come on darling let's not worry and go to bed."Dad says calmly.
After that I heard my parents come up the stairs and go to bed. I knew mum would react like this but I'm glad because she cares about me.
