"I…" Huo Xiang started to speak.
He wanted to say that he did, but the moment he saw Huo Yao's all-knowing eyes, he could not finish his sentence. After a pause, he finally admitted the truth.
"… I forgot to take the meds."
Huo Yao finished the rest of the apple and got up without saying anything.
A sense of fear arose hastily in Huo Xiang's heart when he saw his little sister suddenly leave. It felt as if he had been caught by his teacher after not doing his homework.
That was odd. Why would he feel this way?
Huo Yao went to get a glass of water and handed it to Huo Xiang expressionlessly.
Huo Xiang took the glass from his little sister in an uncharacteristically obedient manner and instinctively retrieved the bottle of medicine from his pocket without waiting for her to say a word.
In a meek voice, he said, "I'll take it now."
