Mr. Grouper POV
Today, I didn't feel good. I had a really bad cough and it hurt so bad, but thanks to the 2 guppies I love the most (Molly and Gil) that gave me a blanket and a glass of water, I could probably feel better. But, I gotta see a doctor.

Mr. Grouper: Um..hi.

Nurse #1: Hello, have an appointment today?

Mr. Grouper: Yeah..I have a bad cough.

Nurse #1: I'll send doctor cortez to check your cough.

After a while

Mr. Grouper: *Humming*

Dr. Cortez: Tino Grouper?

Mr. Grouper: That's me.

Dr. C: So, I hear you have a certain cough. What's wrong?

Mr. G: Well, this morning I wasn't feeling well and I was still coughing in school, but apparently my 2 students gave me a glass of water and comfy blanket to feel better, but I'm still coughing.

Dr. C: So, did you drink medicine before going to school?

Mr. G: Yes, but it didn't work.

Dr. C: So, we're gonna do some tests and see the results of what's happening in this situation.

*After a few tests*

Dr. C: Okay, it says....oh, my.

Mr. G: What?

Dr. C: I'd rather show you it than tell you.

*Sees paper and appears to have cancer and other certain problems*

Mr. G: No..no. *Laughs a bit* This has gotta be a joke..

Dr. C: No, it's not. These don't lie.

Mr. G: But..my students love me like their dad, even Molly. If I tell them, they'll be heartbroken and sad forever. They need me.

Dr. C: I know, Mr. G, but you gotta tell 'em. It's fine. Mr. Grumpfish can take care of them, they love him as well.

Mr. G: I know that, but what if they miss me a lot?

Dr. C: They can visit you here in the hospital. Just relax, okay? You can call Mr. Grumpfish right now and we can get you some rest later, okay?

Mr. G: Okay. Thanks.

*Doctor Cortez leaves and goes to another patient and Mr. G thinking in head*

Mr. G: (I hope he accepts it. Molly won't like to here the news, neither the others. I love them like family as well. Ok, here goes nothing.) *Dials Mr. Grumpfish's phone number*

Mr. Grumpfish: *Hello?*

Mr. G: Hey, Mr. Grumpfish, can you take care of the guppies everyday?

Mr. Grumpfish: *Why?*

Mr. G: Because I have to stay in the hospital and I have some certain problems.

Mr. Grumpfish: Wh-what? But, they need you!

Mr. G: *I know, but I gotta stay here so they can help me.*

Mr. Grumpfish: Okay.

Mr. G: *Also, you can tell them the news. I just want them to know because they'll be growing up soon and they need to know our honesty and truths.*

Mr. Grumpfish: Ok, bye.

Mr. G: Bye, it was nice talking to you..

Mr. Grumpfish: *Yeah.*

*Hangs Up*

Mr. G: *Sighs*

Dr. C: Okay, come with me to this room.

With The Guppies

Molly: I hope Mr. G is okay.

Gil: Yeah, me too.

Mr. Grumpfish: *Comes in* Hey, kids.

Guppies: Mr. Grumpfish?

Nonny: What are you doing here?

Deema: Wait, where's Mr. Grouper?

Mr. Grumpfish: *Sighs* He's at the hospital.

*Molly & Gil look at each other nervously*

Guppies: Why?

Mr. Grumpfish: I know you'll be shock about this, but he told me to tell you the truth to you guys..He's got cancer and other certain problems.

Molly & Gil: *Gasps*

Deema: Wait..

Oona: What's cancer?

Nonny: Cancer is a diseased caused by an uncontrolled division  of abnormal cells in a part of someone's body.

Zooli: It means that it's bad and dangerous that it could kill you.

Molly: But..but..he'll come b-back..right?

Mr. Grumpfish: *Swims to Molly and hugs her* We're not sure.

Gil: Can we visit him though?

Mr. Grumpfish: Yeah, we can. But everything will be okay. (Hopefully.)

*Cellphone rings*

Mr. Grumpfish: Hello?

*Dr. C chatting on phone*

Mr. Grumpfish: Oh, okay..

*Hangs up*

Oona: What is it?

Mr. Grumpfish: We can't visit him later, he needs some rest and some medical care from them. We'll visit him tomorrow, okay?

Molly: Y-yeah.

Gil: Molly, we'll be okay and he'll be okay. If we give hope.

Molly: I guess your right. I'm gonna write him a card and bring him a flower.

Gil: I'll do that too.

Mr. Grumpfish: *Smiles*
