Chapter - 5 Love of Lisa's father made her lost in words

They stopped pedaling near the three-way roads. Kenyan said bye to them and left.

"Bye!" Xiye and Lisa waved at him. Then, Xiye pressed the pedals and moved.

"Are you crazy?" Xi Ye asked.

Lisa ducked her head, bit the bottom of her corner lips, and held the bike seat. "Okay! I won't do it anymore," she declared.

They reached the home,stark also came there when Lisa got off the bike, and he stood the bike on the wall and then locked it.

Lisa and Xi Ye kept glancing at him without winking.

Then, he directly entered his home by using the staircase, while Lisa was seeking his sight.

Xiye turned her head toward Lisa, who was watching stark's absence with unwavering eyes. She shook the bicycle to get her attention and said, "Keep it in your mind!"

Lisa looked at her and wriggled her head up and down.

Xiye left with a bicycle.

Lisa's lazy and messy steps showed her disappointment with his attitude. She went directly into her room, took off her bag, and put it on the table.

A few minutes later, she came out of her room wearing short-sleeve dress pants. She leaned on the sofa and took the remote from the table. She was watching Tom and Cherry on TV.

Her mom came from the kitchen with a pocketful of snacks, then gave them to Lisa and sat near her while she was chewing the chips. They are watching together.

A few hours later, her mom snatched snacks from her hand and said, "Go and do your homework."

She turned her head immediately. "Mom!" she ranted and stood up as soon as she saw her mother's face. Her noisy steps made her mom wrinkle her face.

In a stark house, stark mom knocked on his room door with a cup of milk in her hand.

Then, the door opened, and he went to sit at his table.

She walked near his table and asked, "How was your first day in school?" She puts the cup on the table.

"Nothing to say, mom," he said while writing homework with an indifferent expression.

"Really!" she drawled after seeing him without any excitement.

He nodded his head.

"Then... what about Lisa?" she queried.

He stood up quickly and caught a glimpse of her eyes. "Nothing about her!" he ranted, then started to write again.

"Oh!"

"Okay," she smiled and rubbed his hair gently, leaving the room silently.

In Lisa's home, her mom looked at the clock while resting on the sofa. She realised it had reached midnight, and then she came near Lisa's room and knocked on it constantly.

Lisa muttered and squeezed her eyes, then got up from the bed and opened the door with her lazy hand.

"What now!"

"I have finished my homework, mom," she said, lowering her voice and squeezing her eyes with a long face.

"Lisa, the time is twelve. Dad hasn't come to the house yet," she fluttered.

"So what?" Lisa's relaxed posture made her mother more scared.

"Dad didn't answer his phone, go and look for your father." She handed her a coat and pushed her out of the house, then locked the door.

"Mom! mom!"

"You go, mom!" she yelled at her mom through the locked door.

Lisa wore her coat, stepped like a dinosaur on the staircase, and folded her fingers tightly as her wrist vessels burst.

Her whole body shivered while walking on the cold street. So, she put her two hands on the coat pocket with trembling lips. Her shoulder also kept trembling.

She walks along the dark road, looking at each shop. But all shops are closed except the ice cream shop.

She took her hand from her pocket and moved quickly to the ice cream shop.

She pointed in that direction and asked, "Madam, Did any middle-aged man cross this way?"

"Sorry! I don't see anyone." The shopkeeper nodded her head.

Lisa politely said thanks to her. Then she kept walking along the road.

A few minutes later, she noticed a phone near the riverbank, walked near it, and took it. She turned the phone back and forth and realised that it was her dad's phone.

She looked at the forest, which was near the riverbank. Her pupils got wide as she realised something. Then she ran towards the forest.

"Dad!, Dad!" she shouted.

A few seconds later, she heard the sound of a wolf. She ran towards the sound of the wolf's direction.

She looked at her dad, who was unable to escape from the wolf. He was stretching his arms like a stick in front of him.

The wolf frowned at him with thirsty eyes.

Her eyebrows rose, and her pupils got wild-eyed. "Dad!" she screamed.

The wolf moved its eyes to her and stared at her with a furious look.

"Why are you here?" her dad yelled at her.

"Dad!" She screamed and covered her face with a hand while the wolf jumped on her.

At the time, her dad barely punched the wolf with a timber cane. Then he pulled her and ran towards the river. The wolf fainted on the ground.

They panted by bending their posture by pressing the leg elbow. "Why are you here, dad?" Lisa asked, gasping.

"I mistook the wolf for the dog, so I followed a wolf cub that went directly to its mom. That was the mother of the pup wolf." He was embarrassed and rubbed her head nervously.

She laughed and gasped. "But, why?" She asked.

"I wanted to prize you the puppy," he emphasised while looking at the surface.

She stopped laughing and uprighted her head. She kept glancing at her dad crowingly.

"Come on, Mom is waiting for you!" she concluded, embarrassed, when her dad gazed at her, and then they started to walk together.

The next morning, the sun peeked out from the sea.

Stark woke up from his bed, and Lisa also woke up from her bed.

Lisa got ready for school. She walked to her room to get her bag.

When she bent over to take the bag, the chain peeked out from her dress. She uprighted and touched the chain. "Did he forget about me or is he pretending?" She talked to herself and kept touching the chain.

"Lisa!" Lisa heard Xi Ye's voice.

"I'm coming!" Lisa replied.

"Why are you coming late?" "It's very late!" Xi Ye yelled at her.

"Sorry!" Lisa got on the bike in a hurry.

Thereupon, they reached the school. The class started before they reached the classroom.

"Teacher!" Xi Ye gasped.

"Yes!" The teacher let them in without asking anything.

They moved to their seats, rushed, and took things out of their bags. At the time, Lisa's pencil fell under the table, so she bent to take it. Her chain peeked out again. It caught stark's attention.

He rubbed his forehead by blinking his eyes often, then fell on the table as his view got gradually dimmer.

"Stark!" Kenyan tapped his shoulder. But, there was no movement in his body.

"Teacher, he fainted!" Kenyan shouted.

All the students' eyes turned to the Kenyan seats.

"What's wrong with this person?" "He is acting differently today," Larzhy said, giving a wince.

"What happened?" Lisa freaked out and ran to him.

"Splash the water on his face," the teacher ordered.

Kenyan did it, but he didn't wake up.

The teacher called the ambulance. The ambulance came there. Kenyan, Lisa, and Xiye got along with him.

in the hospital.

His mom came there with a flustered body. She asked Lisa, "What happened to him?"

"He suddenly fainted, aunty," Lisa explained.

Nervous attracted his mom to peek in the I.C.U. often.

A half-minute later, a doctor came out of the ICU. All of them went closer to the doctor as the stuttering pushed them.

"How is he now, doctor?" his mom asked.

"There's nothing to worry about, he has amnesia. Memories will come and go like this, so it's common," the doctor convinced them.

"Thank you so much, doctor," his mom said politely.

"Amnesia?" Lisa rolled her watery eyes at stark's mom and raised her eyebrows in a bewildered face.
