The young doctor continued to speak.

“Has she been overly stressed lately? Make sure she eats well, and her stomach condition can’t be neglected any longer. It needs to be taken care of.”” His fingers gently brushed the sweat from Maja’s forehead, lingering there momentarily.

“She should be fever–free in about an hour. Have the kitchen prepare something stomach–friendly for her. She hasn’t eaten in two days.”

The doctor chuckled.

“I won’t ruin a friend’s reputation.”

Maria found his voice incredibly soothing and gentle. With a bit of worry still lingering, she headed downstairs.
