217 - Check Up
Consuming medicine all the time isn’t good for your body because medicines are made to treat a certain sickness. One or some of its contents should have a different effect on the body even though it worked well as combination in the medicine, and that effect may not be harmless.
For an example, you are having a headache and you area taking a pill to cure it. That pill, maybe an aspirin, might cure your headache half an hour later. But if that was consumed regularly, you will have heart complications before you know it. Because it was not for regular consumption, and most medicines are like this. Medicines are not vitamins after all.
He couldn’t believe Miria had to consume that multiple times because the doctor diagnosed her with some kind of… Innate fever. There is no such thing as innate fever.
‘I know I’m not from here and there’s a possibility that kind of disease exists, but still, that’s crap,’ Jai thought.<

The Last Thunder 218 - Pediatrician?
Entering the place, Jai distracted his gaze around the room. Across from the door was a desk with a lamp and stationery which Jai was sure the registration. Also because there was a woman sitting behind the desk and writing something, and two doors on each sides.There were two homey couches leaning against both walls with a pot of plant at both ends, and two coffee tables to complete the waiting room. There was something like a jug, but it had a faucet, and there were stacked wooden cups on the stand beside it. Jai assumed that was a water dispenser for the guests to serve themselves a cup of drink while they wait.The walls were dyed in pastel green with big white stripes and decorated with a picture of an anatomy of human’s digestive parts and funny masks of animals. It seemed like a family friendly place. There’s also an aquarium on the right wall beside the plant which contained several colorful, living fishes that would distract children enough to pas
The Last Thunder 219 - Usha’s friend
Barun and Miria left the doctor’s place with Usha. This time, however, Usha wiggled his way out of Miria’s arms. The kitten jumped to the ground and ran down the stairs, before then stopping right at the end of the stairs.“Usha?” Miria called. She was a bit surprised that the kitten suddenly jumped down, because he was behaved since they left home.Usha stretched his body and yawned quietly. He then looked at the two of his human friends and said, “Since he’s gone, I’ll protect you.”Barun chuckled as they descended the stairs too. “Run along, kitty. But don’t go too far, alright?” Barun said, thinking that the kitten wanted some playtime.Usha blinked slowly. “What? No, I’m not here to play. Maybe later, I kind of missed that lady blue bunny,” he said. But of course, no one but himself knew what he was talking about. To others, it would only be ‘meow, meow, and meo
The Last Thunder 220 - Miria meets Darisha
Usha rubbed his head to the blue rabbit’s puffy chest in affection. “See you again, lady bunny.” The rabbit responded with a few lick to his head.“Thank you for ordering us, sir and missy!” the driver said to Barun and Miria. Then he waved at the kitten. “You too, little kitty!”Usha meowed at the driver and walked to Miria’s side. Barun thanked the driver and left with Miria and Usha to the alley.Miria giggled as Usha brushed against her calf. “That driver is very kind.”Barun chuckled as they turned an alley. “Yes, he is. And Artie is the name of the rabbit, yes?”“Oh yes, it’s like the short for Artaglia, our minister,” Miria said. “I wonder if he was inferring to that…”Barun chuckled and shrugged. “Who knows, dear…”&nb
The Last Thunder 221 - Miria meets Darisha (2)
Usha looked at his female human and was a bit confused by how red she had become. She was only kissed by another female human after all. He kissed her many times on her hands and both her cheeks, but she didn’t respond like that. He narrowed his eyes as he could feel a small spark of jealousy coming from deep inside him.The minutes passed by with Barun and Miria talking to each other about Darisha, while Usha focused his attention towards the kitchen where the fat human, the twin boys, and the female human were currently cooking something. Delicious aroma permeated the air and Usha couldn’t help but feel his mouth watery from the smell. He didn’t eat human food that often, but human food tastes delicious to his tongue. Just, they’re probably too… Something they call salty, and sweet, but at least Usha could stand leftover fried potato sticks back then.Ten to fifteen minutes later, their order was ready and Da
The Last Thunder 222 - Consultants (1)
Their time in Darrion’s house was fun. Darisha seemed to like Miria a lot and wasn’t hiding it at all. The woman even told them that how she would love to take Miria out on a walk together, just the two of them. Miria was delighted, but she had to refuse because she got tired easily and their walk would be ruin.Darisha told her that it would be just fine since it’s just a walk, so there’s no rush. Miria was still uncomfortable with the thought, but her face showed that she would want that too.Darrion had to leave because he had work to do, but he promised Jai he would tell Carrola and then inform Jai. The three villagers of Letush stayed for lunch at Darisha’s house before then leaving. Darisha made the two men promise to bring Miria for a visit every week, and as usual, she never accepted a no. Also, since they were stuck with Darisha until almost three PM, they had to cancel their shopping plan which no one regrette
The Last Thunder 223 - Consultants (2)
He made his way south from Atla Square. The second person he’s consulting this time was Doctor Tate, a vein doctor. Jai asked Carrola what a vein doctor is and the scholar told him that the doctor deals with the muscles in the head. Jai guessed he must be some kind of neurologist because it involved people’s head and neurons are similar to vein. That made Jai wondered if the term nerve system had been found here.Jai adjusted his scarf to cover his head like a veil before crossing the East Main Road and walked to the southeastern part of the kingdom. He remembered this was near the Southern Market where they went to in the second race. He checked again the address on the paper and it said that the doctor’s place is near the market. Since Jai wasn’t familiar with the kingdom yet, he knew he’s vulnerable and more prone to get lost, so he asked some people on the way that didn’t look like hooligans or anything similar. Some house
The Last Thunder 224 - Doctor Prime
Because the sun was still high in the sky, Jai chose to visit Doctor Prime right away. But since his grumbling stomach asked for food, he considered buying snacks in the market to eat on the way. He decided to go to the food stand he came to before. He considered that as an exchange for the direction the owner had given him.“Here you go, sonny!” the owner said after handing Jai the meat bread and fried potato he ordered.“Thank you, sir,” Jai replied, receiving the food.The meat bread was wrapped in a brown paper and was warm, while the fried potato was put in a container made from a thicker paper. The meat bread was almost similar to a burger, but the meat inside was cooked with spices and seasonings that made it smell so good, and the bread was softer. Jai’s mouth became watery by how good the meat bread smelled like, and he decided to just eat the foods right then and there. When he was done, he bought a drink for take away and
The Last Thunder 225 - Asking permission
Jai had this small light of hope in his heart when he left Doctor Prime’s office. The way the doctor told him about how he’s going to examine Miria first somehow indicates that this doctor is serious about his job. To him, being a doctor means saving life of others, and how they treat those lives who need their help determines how serious they are in the expertise.Of course, there are also wicked doctors like in the movies or real life experiences, and that also concerned Jai for a moment. Like, what if this is a scam? Or what if this doctor turned out to be a psychopath and Jai indirectly helping him get his next victim? But Jai erased those thoughts aside. From their interaction today, Jai assumed that Doctor Prime is legit.‘But the real question is, how can I coax Miria to have another checkup with a different doctor?’ Jai thought as he jogged around the village.He had woken up early, right
