Chapter 1829
“My teacher’s Health is going down the drain, all I can do is to buy him some time”
The Prior bowed his head and didn’t utter a word.
“I get it, do your best, III help you, he finally murmured after a moment
Larkin walked to Abbot’s wooden desk
Everything on the table was just as he left it
The spot where he first read the Bible, standing on a little stool.
Larkin quickly wrote down a medication list
It included some rare drugs that you can’t find in your average pharmacy.
So Larkin made a call and got someone to ship them special delivery from B City
The Prior got straight to work
He went out in the middle of the night to pick up the medication according to Larkins list.
By morning, the drugs Larkin needed were quickly delivered to the monastery,
Larkin divided the drugs and handed them to the Prior, “Til come by every day to give my teacher crystal healing”
“Much obliged.” The Prior nodded quietly, then said, “L”
He just couldn’t bear to lose the Abbot
The thought of living without Abbot by
Left him feeling lost at sea!
side
“I understand.” Larkin patted the Prior’s shoulder gently.
The Prior glanced at him, instantly feeling a little more at ease, “You’ve been up all night, get some rest”
“Okay”Larkin nodded.
He took one last look at the closed door before leaving Abbot’s room
But Larkin didn’t head back to his quarters to rest
Instead, he waited on the path where Erica would pass by when she came out.
It didn’t take long.
Enca, still half-asleep, followed the Sisters out.
“Mr. Carter, waiting for your wife bright and early, are we?” A Sister jested.
Larkin was an interesting guy, always looking like he’s got his head in the clouds, totally aloof
But when it comes to his wife, he’s a sweet and caring man.
Wherever she goes, he goes.
“Larkin, what brings you here?” Erica perked up at the sound of “Mr. Carter,” and trotted over to him.
Just one look, and Erica knew something was off
Larkin was wearing his pyjama t-shirt and pants.
He was usually pretty vain, he wouldn’t be caught dead running around in his sleepwear
And NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
“Why are you wearing mismatched slippers? This one isn’t yours, is it?” Erica grabbed Larkin’s hand, looked down at his feet, and asked quietly
Larkin didn’t have the mind to worry about what he was wearing after the night he’d had.
“No wonder it felt a bit off” He looked at the shoe on his right foot, it was a bit small
“You guys go on!” Erica waved at the Sisters, took Larkin’s hand, and started toward his quarters, “I hope the guy whose shoe you’ve got hasn’t left yet!”
That night, Larkin was in the dumps.
He kept beating himself up
Looking at his teacher’s symptoms, he went through every medical knowledge he had in his head.
But there wasn’t a single method that could save his teacher’s life.
Enca’s hand, warm, held his cold hand
His whirlwind of emotions, at that moment, got a huge relief
It felt like a ship tossed about in the stormy sea, finally returning to its safe harbor
