Fleeting Midsummer ✔(COMPLETE)

Chapter 28: Disfigured (1)

The weather became warm day by day, just as the shivering at the swimming pool classes decreased gradually. Many classmates that could not swim before could already swim two laps in the swimming lane. As for me, who was naturally afraid of water, I flopped around in the water for quite a while. When I stood up, I realized that I still remained stubbornly in place. I hadn't even swam for a meter! The sterilized water that I had swallowed into my stomach had been drunk in vain yet again. Every time Julie watched me swim, she would get incomparably depressed: "Even if you're really a lump in water, you should still be able to move ." Then, she would conveniently submerge herself in the water to watch Fang Yuke swim by. This scum!

I was worrying about my swimming technique, which wasn't allowing me to move anywhere, when unexpectedly, something more worrying occurred.

After four months of swimming lessons, my whole body became so itchy that it became difficult to tolerate it. At the start, I hadn't minded it much. I thought that it was just some pollen allergy. At this time and season, the pollen fell down like snow. Originally, I felt it was romantic, probably because "Winter Love Song" had become super popular lately. The typical scenario of the male and female leads who would cuddle together in the midst of the great snow that swirled in the air hadn't even ended yet. I walked two times underneath a willow, trying especially hard to pursue a goal stubbornly. After I had finished, I would become The White Haired Girl because cotton had fallen all over my head.

But after I woke up the next day, there were countless dots of different sizes and shapes all across my face and body. They looked like the dots on Buddha's forehead and they had been spread everywhere below my hairline. When I looked into the mirror, in my heart, I thought I was finished. I was disfigured even before I had done any plastic surgery.

Julie awoke early in the morning and looked at me hazily and she was so shocked that she screamed. After that, the other two were woken up and simultaneously came over and stood in a circle to look at my new appearance.

These people whose hearts was full of uselessness, only said one sentence after having their fill of watching me: "It looks like you have to depend on something like the Safflower Oil medication in order to cure this, or you could also go to the hospital to take a look."

Hence, the group of us rushed towards Haidian Hospital, which was the nearest to the school, so fast as if we were robbing a bank. The school's clinic was often called "Entering Heaven". Even if I died, I would never risk my honor and glory.

The skin doctor put on his gloves and pinched the bumps on my leg and asked, "Is the place you live in clean?"

Out of the four of us, none of us dared to speak because we were all too awkward to answer.

I could only stiffen my neck and say, "Anyway it's no problem for people to live in."

The doctor continued to ask, "Do you have any feelings of nausea?"

When Julie heard this, she quickly pricked up her ears. I knew that it was just because she was interested in things that appeared to hint at pregnancy.

I shook my head.

The doctor asked a few more simple questions before deciding that that I had an acute case of hives. He prescribed me some medication before allowing me to go home. Luckily, this illness was not contagious. If it was quick, I would recover in 2 weeks. It was just that within these 2 weeks, I would have to suffer from itchiness that I could not scratch. This was a torment for me.
