Some minutes later, they were seen running around the kitchen like kids.
Anthony couldn't resist smiling along when he heard their laughter from the bathroom he was taking his shower.
"Big Sis and Brother Amos are at it again," He chuckled and continued with what he was doing.
After he showered Anthony didn't have to wait long before Joanna served lunch.
"Brother Amos, aren't you gonna join us for lunch," Anthony asked the guy whose attention was immersed in the laptop lying on his legs.
"You know he can't eat our food so why are you disturbing...,"
"And who says I can't eat your food huh?" He questioned. He took his gaze off the laptop screen for a moment.
"You can eat human food now?" Anthony asked with widened eyes.
"Yeah, I can. As long as your Big Sis is the one who fed me, I won't reject," he responded jokingly. "You know what I mean, Joan," He said and winked naughtily at her.
Anthony shifted his attention to Joanna sitting by his side. "Big Sis, do you also feed him even though he is all grown up?" He asked innocently.
Joanna choked on her food and coughed repeatedly.
Amos sprang up from where he sat, rushed to the kitchen and reappeared in the sitting room with a glass of water.
"Have water," He mentioned. He stretched forth his hand so that the glass of water was within her reach.
Instantly she snatched the glass of water from him and gulped it down.
"Hey, Little man, why did you have to ask your sister such a question," He scolded. "Do you want to choke her to death by...,"
"If I end up choking to death it will be your fault and not his," Joanna cut him short. She coughed some more.
"Ok, I won't say a word so take a deep breath and try to calm down. Don't forget your little man doesn't even understand the hidden meaning behind his question," He grinned and returned to his seat.
"You...," Joanna stammered while pointing her hand at him.
She continued to eat when he acted as if he was not the one she was talking to.
After the meal, Joanna and Anthony spent time together while they let Amos work without any disturbance.
When he was done with his piled-up work it was night.
"Joan...," Joanna placed her index finger on her mouth and pointed at the bed where Anthony lay.
She carried her chained handbag and her cell phone and approached where he stood.
"Let's talk in the sitting room," she suggested and led him to the sitting room.
"Are we going out on a date?" He asked, beaming. He reached out his hand and held her hand.
"I didn't know you made such an arrangement...,"
"Sorry, but we aren't going on a date. I dressed up because I want to drop by somewhere...,"
"Is this about Audrey?" he asked softly. "If you are worried about her...,"
"I want to go home. I need to get Little rice ball's stuff that he will need for these three days. I also need to inform those at home that he is with me," Joanna explained in a soft tone.
"Do you want me to follow you...,"
"You don't need to worry about me. I can handle things by myself. Also, I will need you to watch over him in case he wakes up," She muttered with a smile lingering on her lips.
"I know you want to spend time with me and I also want the same thing. I will be back before you notice it," She assured him with a smile.
"Really?" He asked. He guided her hand and brought it to his face.
"I promise I will be quick about it," She promised. She stroked his face for a few seconds and removed her hand from his face.
"If you encounter any problem make sure to call me. I will run to you whenever you need me. You know that right?" He questioned.
He cupped her pretty face with his cold palms.
"Of course, I know that," She replied. They talked for a few more minutes. He escorted her downstairs even though she told him that she was fine.
Joanna's first destination was her home. She wasn't surprised to see that apart from the guards; there were only two maids at the mansion.
She quietly went to his room and picked all the things she believed Anthony would need during his stay with her.
She also picked a few clothes from her room. With none to disturb her, she completed her task in less than fifteen minutes.
"Zara," Joanna called out to the maid that walked past her.
The lady with shoulder-length black hair paused. She spun and looked at Joanna.
"Which hospital are Laura and her mother admitted to?" Joanna demanded in a gentle tone.
"I overheard the other maids saying they were admitted to Z . A Hospital," Zara relayed the information she got.
"Ok," she replied casually. She proceeded to the door almost immediately.
"She wasn't at home when Madam and Old Madam were rushed to the hospital so how did she know they were taken to the hospital?" Zara mumbled, her gaze focused on the door Joanna walked out from not long ago.
After leaving her room, Joanna hailed a taxi a street away from her home. The journey lasted for fifteen minutes.
Joanna paid the cab man her fare and stepped out of the car. Standing outside she gazed at the tall building.
"So this is where all of them are?" Joanna muttered. She strengthened the collar of her shirt and adjusted the way she held the bag in her hand.
"The last ten hours must have been hellish for them. I can't wait to see the condition they are in," Joanna grinned. She approached the automatic door.
Entering the hospital Joanna didn't bother to ask the nurses at the reception which ward her family members were admitted to. But their scents lead her to the room they were in.
When she got to the ward they were in, she paused at the door and tried to compose herself.
