Chapter 3

Hospital.

A male, older reindeer was lying on a hospital bed. He was attached to a heart monitor and a drip. He had a remote controller in his hand and was flipping the channels on the television that was attached to the wall, almost in the corner. The man's name was Rudolph Holiday, the father of Noelle. Most of his friends called him Rudy for short. His appearance was that he had a narrow face, dark hair and wears a thin moustache and a goatee…he also has a deep voice. The only thing he's wearing and the only attire available to him is a hospital gown. Rudolph was in hospital with a rare disease and that the doctors can't figure out what it is or what's wrong with him, other than a simple symptom that he barely eats and bleeds whenever he goes to the toilet, the strange thing is…it doesn't hurt him.

He was still flipping through the channels and couldn't find anything good to watch.

RUDOLPH: Nothing! Nothing good on at all. Not even sports. (There was a light knock on the door) Come in.

The door opened and Noelle popped her head in.

NOELLE: Are you awake, daddy?

RUDOLPH: Nope. Still asleep. (He chuckles) What you're looking at is an out of body experience version of me.

Noelle giggled. She loved it when her father was in good spirts, especially since he's been stuck in this hospital, what feels like a lifetime. Noelle walked over to his bedside and put a bag on his desk.

NOELLE: I got you a few things.

RUDOLPH: You didn't have to do that, sweetheart.

NOELLE: It's…not much, just a few grapes…and a nutrition drink.

RUDOLPH: Ah, the ol' cliché hospital gift. Thanks, sweetie. I'm sure I'll make an effort to eat them at some point.

NOELLE: How are you feeling?

RUDOLPH: I'm fine. I feel fine. Pooped a little bit of blood earlier…but I guess you didn't want to know that, did you?

NOELLE: No, not really…

RUDOLPH: (Smiles) Well then, how are you…?

NOELLE: Um. (Grins) Yeah, I'm okay. I guess…

RUDOLPH: You do look a little perky.

NOELLE: I do…?

RUDOLPH: Yeah, you do. Something good happen?

NOELLE: You…c-could say that!

RUDOLPH: Well, go on then. (Sits up a bit more) Spill the beans. Wait, let me guess…(Thinks for a second)…did you chuck your job in?

NOELLE: No.

RUDOLPH: Ah, I know. You punched that idiot Berdly in the face, didn't you?

NOELLE: (Laughs a little) No…

RUDOLPH: Oh. That's a shame. God, I hate him…I'd chuck him out the window if I see him. The Nerdly shit!

NOELLE: It's…definitely got nothing to do with the boss.

RUDOLPH: Hmm. (Looks at Noelle carefully, trying to get some sort of hint) Is it…love? (Noelle blushes furiously) It is, isn't it? You've found someone.
