"But before that... "
The doctor went back to his serious tone as he whispered once more,
"You might need to know that I'm also a Ghoul. "
I gulped.
I knew that he was also a Ghoul but his seriousness just sent shivers down my spine.
"You don't need to fear though. I won't simply devour anyone, including you. I'm like your father, we're on the good side if Ghouls. "
I slowly nodded and relieved by his words. Then he looked at his watch on his wrist followed by a surprised expression. He immediately stood up and said,
"I t-think that's all for now, I'll tell you more tomorrow. "
I looked at him surprised...
"I'm sorry, but I'm 5 minutes late for an appointment with a patient. You should rest for now since you just woke up from an accident. "
He made a small bow and left the room in a rush.
Now the whole room fell silent for a moment, then came the sound of birds chirping and seems like there's a busy city outside the window.
I looked out through it with hundreds of question in my mind. I only remained still and spaced out.
A few moments later, the door slid open again. I turned my head to face the door, hoping it was the doctor but unfortunately it was just a nurse, she was holding a tray with some food on it.
She entered the room and closed the door. She smiled at me after realizing that I was staring at her. Then she walked towards me, as she sets up a small table in front of me and place the tray on top.
"Little miss, here's a meal for you. "
"T-thank you. " I replied her.
She smiled and said,
"Please enjoy your meal. "
I looked at the tray that contains a cup of hot cocoa and a sandwich. I took a deep breath and let out a sigh. Then I picked up the cup of cocoa and slowly drank it.
