Now that Ming was in middle school and Tofu was in primary school she had to come back home alone. Ming would have self-study classes after school. To not waste her time Ming asked her to go back home and take rest.
Where can Tofu take rest? She was busy trying to find different ways to lose weight.
In the morning she would eat less saying she feels greasy, at lunch, she will have different excuses and at night she would eat before Ming comes. To quicken the speed of losing the weight she also coupled her dieting with exercise.
Earlier she would only exercise during the day, now that she was being ridiculed, she started doing it two times. Once in the morning while later after coming back from school.
One morning, Ming went to wake her up as usual. Ming noticed some unusualness in her face.
Since it was more than a week Tofu had started losing weight the effects which were not visible were now clearly visib
Since Shen Yi was looking at Tofu from the moment she picked up the books he was also the first one to notice when she fell down.Quickly running towards her Shen Yi straightened her body, he sat down on the ground with his legs folded and adjusted Tofu's head on his lap.Touching her face and patting her cheeks Shen Yi called her name. He touched her hands followed by her feet. They were cold, like ice-cold making him frown.Everyone else was a minute late than Shen Yi. Even the teacher was just standing and only reacted when Shen Yi called her out loud.Quickly running to Tofu's side she asked anxiously, "What happened?"Following her even Barbie ran to them, nervously asking, "What happened to Tofu? Tofu" She started calling out loud to Tofu who was not responding and lying without any motion."Quick, call emergency!" Shen Yi shouted towards the teacher.
The principal was also informed about the matter and was just about to call the parents after Tofu was taken by the hospital.
Soon the ambulance reached the hospital. The emergency doctor fed some sugar in Tofu's mouth on the way making her feel better.After reaching the hospital Tofu was injected with infusion laid with nutrition and Ming was arranged to stay with her in the ward.
As soon as Tofu shouted Pain, Ming's hand stopped midway. Frowning, he again helped her to lie down.Ming then took a cotton ball and dipped it in water. Taking the ball closer to her lips, Ming dabbed it on her dry, crusty lips.
Tofu felt sad hearing Ming apologizing to her. In her eyes, her Brother Ming was the best. He was omnipotent, he was intelligent, he was a great chef, he was an amazing tutor and whatnot.Tofu knew, her Brother Ming always tried to be best because he did not like being the second or third. He never followed the crowd and made his own way out.
"Mu Yan Mei!" Ming repeated in a soft voice with knitted brows.As much as Ming can remember, she was the girl who probably liked Shen Yi and would always pick a fight with Barbie and Tofu.
Ming made sure that Tofu was asleep before leaving the room. If it could have been a normal day, he would have not cared this much. But from the moment he has seen Tofu lying on the stretcher, motionlessly with her pale face, his heart has been shrouded in fear of losing her.The only thing that he ever wants to see on her face is now happiness and smile. Ming ma
The next day, Tofu woke up naturally, and like the original Tofu, she had a huge portion of her breakfast before going back to school along with Ming.Inside the classroom, as soon as Tofu entered Barbie and Shen Yi surrounded her while asking her about her health. Apart from them some other classmates were also generally concerned about her health and asked her if she
