[at the doctor's office...]
Hater: (poked his head in) Hello?
Doc: [looked up] Oh hello, Lord Hater. Heard abt the retirement from the nurses
Hater: Yeah... Anyway, I need to check with how my condition is. I have been taking the needles.
Doc: Word travels fast ard here. Right, hv a seat n I'll do the chk up
Hater: (does so)
Doc: [does all the necessary chk up, then wait for the prognosis on the computer]
Hater: And um... I've also spat up some black stuff as well.
Doc: Oh, already? [got the prognosis] Well, ur still within Stage 1, n the black stuff ur spitting up is phlegm from by-product of the bitter after taste ur getting from ur taste buds. It'll go away once u reach Stage 2, as well as ur taste buds will recover from there, bt u should be prepared for the power hay wire. Judging by ur current metabolism, u might reach Stage 2 in abt 6 mths to a yr, 2 yrs at most
Hater: I see...
Sylvia: (was walking down the hallway searching for restroom) (think)
Hater: :( But I'm still not sure how to tell them...
Sylvia: ? (hides herself and listens closely)
Doc: The sooner the better. It's not gonna be easy to try n come up with an excuse why ur suddenly shoot rays n lightning everywhere, or whenever u use ur powers it might blow up in ur face
Hater: ^^;; Yeah, I know that.
Sylvia: :^)
Doc: Anyways sooner or later they're gonna question it, n they're gonna know, especially wen u reach Stage 3, which is quite painful as the haywire continues inwardly in ur body n it'll be obvious to everyone's eye. N wat if something happens n no one could help u bcoz they don't know how to deal with u? This cancer is not something to take lightly of
Hater: I get it but...it's hard...
Sylvia: ... :(
Doc: [sighed n patted his shoulder] I know, it's hard for me too to keep a secret like this n keep a straight face wen I know tht Lord Hater, the man who saved us frm our dying planet, is dying himself. Just try ur best n try to do as many things that'll make u happy as possible
Hater: I can try...
Sylvia: ... (makes her leave)
Doc: :) Good. Now I'm gonna go get ready with the nurses. I heard there'll be a farewell party. Don't worry, I'm staying on with u. Someone's gotta keep an eye on u ;)
Hater: Heh, figured Wander would do that. :) And thanks. (gets up and makes his leave)
Doc: Don't forget to carry on with ur prescription. U don't wanna miss out on the good food u might wanna plan to eat in ur bucket list
Hater: (nod) Got it.
[everyone was gathered at the entertainment hall, celebrating the farewell party] (party) (party) (party)
Sylvia: (came up to Wander) :)
Wander: Hey, Syl! :D [puts a party hat on Sylvia] Glad u could join us! U managed to find the restroom?
Sylvia: Yeah, and also... (paused, not sure if she should inform Wander of the news she heard)
Wander: Yeah? :) [gave her tht naive innocent expectant smile]
Sylvia: Uh...Never mind. Anyways, is there any jellyfish pie? (hearteyes)
Wander: :D Seriously, u n ur jellyfish pie. It's right there at the buffet table. Go help urself
Sylvia: :) Sweet. (heads for buffet table)
Wander: [did a toast n clinked glasses with a few Watchdogs] (cheers) [sees Hater come in] Hatey~~ (wave)
Hater: Heh, hey. (wave)
Wander: Come, hv a drink with us :D
Hater: :) Okay.
Wander: [pours him a glass, then raised his own] Cheers to those starting their new lives! May they be happy with wat they're looking for! :D
Watchdogs: Hear, hear! :D :D :D
Sylvia: :) (raised her glass)
Hater: :D (raised his glass)
[they partied for a while, giving well wishes to each other]
Westley: [hears some whisperings from the others n made his way to Hater] Lord Hater, sir!
Hater: Please, Westley, just 'Hater' will do.
Westley: Eheh, right, Hater, sir [whispers to his ear] One of the guys spotted Commander Peepers alone in the main meeting room. They tried to invite him to the party bt he doesn't want to. Maybe u can try to persuade him here
Hater: He's still here? But...He might not...
Wander: Wats wrong? Anything I can do to help?
Hater: He doesn't seem to understand that this is something I need to do...
Wander: Who're u talking abt? [confused since he couldn't hear wat Westley has just whispered to Hater]
Hater: It's... It's Peepers.
Wander: :| Oh, he's still here? Then wat r u waiting for? Here's ur chance to talk n explain to him properly again [starts ushering him]
Hater: ^^;; Okay, okay. (makes his way to where Peepers is)
