Test
Chapter 73. [At The Vet]
"...... Ugh."
I get up from the bed with a slump.
Looking out the window, it was already dark.
"Wow, it's already midnight. I must have woken up at a weird time."
Unbeknownst to me, I had changed from my school uniform to pajamas.
My mom had changed my clothes while I slept.
I turned around on my way to school after that. My mom was still at home because she had a late shift today.
When she saw me coming home right after I left, she was surprised, "What's wrong?" She was surprised.
When I complained about my headache. She stopped sucking on the cat's stomach.
She stopped sucking on the cat's belly and called in sick to middle school.
I went straight to bed and went to sleep.
So far, so good.
"Wait, late at night? Gyaaaaa!? I missed the stream!?"
I collapsed in shock.
Damn, I've done it.
It's impossible to watch all of the streaming in real-time.
That's why I was so selective!
I'm feeling much better now.
Let's check the archives now and heal this sorrow.
"Before...go ho ho ho. I'm a little thirsty."
I leave my room and go to the living room. It's dark because no one is home.
I was too lazy to turn on the light, so I relied on the light from my phone.
I'm used to it.
I took a cup of tea out of the fridge and drank it right there.
"Phew. Well, I was supposed to stream today. Hmm?"
I thought I heard a voice.
It was coming from inside the room.
"Who's there?"
I moved around, wary of the drownings, and reached the light switch.
With a snap, the light came on, and I finally recognized the voice's owner.
"What, a cat?"
There is a cat pattern in this line, isn't there?
I joked as I turned on my heel and said, "Well, stream, stream."
-I'm in pain. Meow.-
"What?"
-Help me, nyaa...!-
I rushed to the cat.
There was nothing outwardly strange about it. At first glance, it seemed to be just lying there.
-What's wrong?-
-My stomach hurts-nya.-
It was not a mishearing.
The cat suddenly jerked itself up. It's peristaltic in its upper body and vomited with a gasp.
"'-Oh, hey!?- Oh no! Don't ask me what I should do in this situation! -Wait a minute. I'll help you!-"
I took control of my phone and started looking up vet clinics.
***
We then visit a small clinic.
It was dark inside.
Is this what a vet is like?
I could smell the smell of animals and chemicals.
"It's okay, kitty. I'm not scary."
My mom's baby talk was not so babyish now.
It was fortuitous that my mom came home soon after that.
"Excuse me, doctor, are you ready yet?"
"I told you to wait, didn't I?"
My mom asked but was shooed away.
It had already been a while since I filled out the medical questionnaire.
It seems that there is only one elderly male staff member here now.
Would it take this long when no one else waiting to see a doctor?
Or is there something else that needs to be done first?
When I arrived there, I had to call out loudly several times for him to come out from the back.
"Um, are we there yet? I've been waiting quite a while already."
"Huh... Oh, I see. This way please."
Finally, the patient is ushered into the examination room.
My mom exhaled with "relief."
This is the only vet around here that's open late at night.
If she couldn't be seen here. She would have no place to go.
-I'm scared! I hate it! Help me!-
The cat on the examination table gets out of control and tries to run away.
A staff member restrains it.
"Well then, I'm going to draw blood..."
The staff member sticks a needle into the cat's leg.
The cat yelps, -Gyaa! gyaa!-.
"Oh... No good. She has, uh, thin blood vessels. So, let's do it again. Please hold him down, mother."
"Yes, yes."
-Oh, no! Aah! -Gee!
Two or three times, he inserted the needle, and finally, he took the blood sample.
The cat's legs were covered in blood.
"I'm done. Well, please wait while I examine it."
The staff member said this and went into the back of the room.
My mom hugged the cat as it tried to escape from the examination room.
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry, that was painful. It hurts."
-Let go of me! I don't want to do this anymore!-
The cat clawed and clawed, trying to escape from her arms.
My mom's shoulder streak was also bleeding. Still, she didn't let go.
I felt so sick I wanted to throw up.
My head was beyond hot. It hurt.
"Huh. ...... Ugh."
"Iroha, leave this to your mother and wait outside. You're not feeling well today."
She worries that I thought the sight of blood made me feel sick.
No, I don't.
My eyes were glued to the door leading to the back.
As I opened my mouth to speak to my mother, a staff member returned from the back.
"Okay, I'm going to inject you with some medicine."
The staff member takes out a syringe.
He grabs the cat's legs, still in my's arms, and...
"Wait."
I realized I was holding the staff member's arm.
I was throbbing.
And painfully, my brain was burning, and the door leading to the back of the examination room was half closed.
From the back of the room, I could hear voices, many layers of voices.
-Enemy-.
-Enemy-
-Enemy da-
-Enemy-
-Enemy...-
-This guy is the enemy...-
