Sitting in the room alone with Syaoran's food Felix drifted into my thoughts of what had happened the day before.
______
The day before
" If I may ask, how much do you remember?"
Felix asked the boy, he had given hope to his older brother his close friend that his little brother will be alright and there will be nothing to worry about.
His heart was racing faster than a horse running away from danger, and that was really harmful for him and he knew that.
"I- I don't remember much because my memory is hazy. I know that I know you both but I just can't get my words out. I know you are my father and you are like a brother figure to me but I can't remember anything else than that. When I try to think more about it, my head hurts. I -I'm sorry." The boy replied with a face full of guilt, a reaction thatthey both weretoo familiar with. He was feeling guilty for not absolute reason again.
"Maybe we should let him rest for now." Syaoran's father suggested.
"That would be great." Felix replied as he turned to face Syaoran," Don't worry it is common for people to have some missing memories or confusion after waking up from a long sleep."
"Don't pressure yourself too much, no one will force you to remember at once. Just take care of yourself." Syaoran's father said as he and Felix stood up to take their leave.
As Felix gathered his stuff to leave Syaoran's father gave the boy a hug once again and they both left after a minute or two.
_______
'I think I am going crazy. I keep making mistakes over and over. How can I forget that people usually should not be pressured right after they wake up from a coma? I think I alone put a huge amount of pressure on him. I even slapped him it didn't hurry much right? I am so dumb, I am so dumb.' Felix thought as he felt like to bang his head on the nearby wall.
______
' This weird pattern looks weird. It seems to originate from beneath the heart. Is this some birth mark kind of thing? If it is they it would be so cool.' Syaoran thought as he stared at his back tracing the pattern with his finger.
"Now that I got a good look at myself, I seems to be pretty young. Maybe around 11 or 12 if not younger."
"I should probably shower up quickly, it is quite awkward to wait for someone alone in their room. He probably already think that I am a madman after all I said yesterday. Why did I say all that?" Syaoran said as he headed to the bathtub.

After a while Syaoran came out. He was dressed in a white shirt with a few frill and black pants.
"You surely took your time." Felix said as he heated the food with his magic.
Syaoran simply just nodded and sat opposite to him.
"Come sit beside me." Felix offered.
"Why?" Syaoran questioned as he raised an eyebrow.
"Seems like your memory is still in a very bad state. Let me remind you that I said yesterday that if you fell asleep for the whole day without eating then I will feed you myself." Felix said with such politeness that it sent shivered down his spin.
"You-you don't have to do that you know? You don't have to trouble yourself with stuff like that. I am perfextly fine. I can feed myself." Syaoran tried to decline the offer.
"Don't worry young master, it is not a problem at all." Felix insisted.
"Okay, just a curious question, there isn't poison right?" The younger one asked the older one pointing to the food in his hands.
"My, my, why would you think that? How can I?" The older one said, the creepy smile still plastered on his face.
"Now, get over here."
Syaoran then followed without any question.
Since the food was so delicious, Syaoran had no complaints anymore. He was after all eating something so delicious after such a long time.
Long time? It's only been like a day since he haven't eating right?
_______
"Since you have been unconscious for a long time it is common for you to forget many things. So, feel free to ask me whatever you want, okay?" Felix offered his help to the boy as he placed the tray on the table.
"Alright, thanks but, what about when you are not around." Syaoran asked.
"Don't worry, if I am not there Weilhem will be there to assist you, afterall I am a busy man. He should be waking up here any minute now." Felix said as he checked the time.
'Weilhem, huh? If what I know is correct then this Weilhem person is my personal butler and childhood friend. It is still such a damned thing that I can only remember things about people that this boy know and not the faces. It seems to me that I have to meet the people in person to remember their faces. Such a drag.' Syaoran thought.
Knock knock...
"There he is-"
Swish ~
Before any of them could answer the one behind the doors it fell open as a young man a few years older that Syaoran ran to where he was and hugged him.
"Oh my, you are back." The boy said squishing the younger one in his arms.
"Hy ya ase hodnh mee to tighljh( hey you are holding me too tightly.)" Syaoran spoke with his words unclear but Felix still understood what was happening.
"Now now Weilhem, I know that you are quite excited to meet you friend after such a long time but you might send him into a coma again if you do that any longer." Felix said as he brought his attention to the boy who was looking like he could die any moment.
Weilhem quickly let Syaoran get out of his little hug.
"Oh! Are you hurt anywhere? I can bring you something if you want." Weilhem asked.
"So how much does he remember?" The butler asked the doctor.
"Maybe only a little, but I am pretty sure that he doesn't know anything about the current situations around." Felix replied.
"I am assuming that I am incharge of his education." Weilhem stated.
"Yup, then I will be leaving him in your care. I got some stuff to do. Okay?" Felix said as he got up.
"Sure go ahead after all it is my job to look after him. I was away for just 2 days and you woke up
" Weilhem said.
"I never would have thought that you would have been one of the people on the busy side." Syaoran commented.
" Was that for me or him?" Felix asked Syaoran.
"Both" He repy.
"Rude" Both the unserious adults said in unison.
"Even if I look like that most of the time I just lazily lie around, I am a pretty busy man. See you guys around. If you need any help that Weilhem cannot provide you, then feel free to come to me." Felix replied as he winked before leaving.
"That won't be necessary." Weilhem gave out a tried sigh.
"Now, where should we start from dear young master Syaoran?" Weilhem said as he again redirected his attention towards Syaoran.
" Let's start from family." Syaoran said.
"Very well"
