Next, he needed to carve the symbols of Telepathic Formation onto these seven circular stone pieces.
Before he knew it, half an hour had passed.
Cordelia was the earliest to get home from work. When she realized Emrys‘ room was locked, she could not help but ask, “Rys, what are you doing in there?”
“You’re back, Delia.” Emrys huffed as he opened the door.
She cast him a puzzled look. “Why do you look so exhausted despite being at home?”
“I did some handiwork.”
“Handiwork?”
Cordelia froze for a moment, recalling a joke Ninette had made before. The latter had said that the “handiwork” that boys referred to was different from what one generally assumed it to be.
Her face instantly turned red, and she shot Emrys a peculiar glance. “Got it. I got it. It must be hard on you to live with us girls.”
She consciously guided him back into his room, giving him the space and time needed to complete his “handiwork,” even closing the door behind him, respecting his need for privacy.
Emrys was at a loss for words.
He stared at the incomplete formations on the table, deep in thought. The odd glances Cordelia had given him earlier only added to his contemplation. I’m really doing actual handiwork!
Later that evening, during dinner, Emrys could not shake off the peculiar gazes from the three
women.
Caylie served him a steaming bowl of lamb stew with white radish and smiled. “Emrys, here you go. I made this for you. Delia even went out of her way to get some exquisite spices from the store to make this dish extra flavorful!”
Yelena also chimed in with enthusiasm, “Rys, in the future, if yo come to me. I do my best to help you out.”
have any needs, you can always
Emrys felt increasingly uneasy throughout the meal as if he was sitting on pins and needles.
The next day, he went to Apricot Hall with Caylie.
Early in the morning, Apricot Hall was already bustling with business, even more so than during Lincoln’s consultation hours.

Among the visitors, not all were seeking medical treatment. A significant number sought Duncan’s expertise to maintain their general health and well–being.
Emrys did not disrupt Duncan’s work. Instead, he assisted the latter by administering acupuncture and prescribing medication for several severely ill patients.
“You finally appear, Dr. Lund.” A smiling woman entered Apricot Hall, carrying a little girl in her
arms.
Upon seeing Emrys, the little girl exclaimed, “Dr. Lund!”
“Hey, Nancy.” Emrys gave her a smile and stroked her head.
He then shifted his gaze to the woman. “Has your daughter fully recovered from Cold Syndrome?”
“Yes, yes. Nancy hasn’t experienced any illnesses since the last time you performed acupuncture on her. Dr. Lund, we’re here to present you a commendation banner as a token of our gratitude.”
“Thank you.”
Emrys graciously accepted the offer, recognizing the sincerity behind their gesture. The gift might not have been extravagant, but its significance was not measured by its price but rather by the sentiment it held.
“We shall not disturb you any further, then. Nancy, say goodbye to Dr. Lund.”
“See you, Dr. Lund,” said Nancy.
“See you, Nancy.”
The smile remained on Emrys‘ face as he watched the mother and daughter duo leave Apricot Hall. At that moment, he realized it was these simple yet profound encounters that brought the greatest joy to a doctor’s life.
However, just as the mother and daughter were about to fade from his view, he caught sight of a furtive man following closely behind them.
Emrys‘ face darkened, and he swiftly turned to Caylie and said, “Caylie, I’m going out for a while.”
Without delay, he left Apricot Hall and discreetly trailed the man, confirming his suspicions that the man was indeed tracking the mother and daughter.
Unaware of the potential danger, the mother and daughter continued on their way.
Emrys eventually arrived at the slums, where the sound of a heated argument reached his ears from a distance away.
The crease on his forehead deepened. He quickened his pace and got into the woman’s house, only to see her hugging the little girl while there was a bright red mark on her cheek.

The man, on the other hand, wore a fierce expression and continued to shout at the mother and daughter, even making threatening gestures as if he was about to hit the woman.
Witnessing this scene, Emrys felt anger welling up inside him. He strode forward and firmly grasped the man’s fist, delivering a powerful kick that sent the latter flying.
