There, there.

See Kiekie, this is what happens when you eat an apple a day.

Does Kiekie really want Nienie to come home? Last I checked, she was eating an apple a day to keep the doctor away.

Kiekie, you must take care of yourself while Nienie is away. I'll be back in a few days, and if you're still unwell, I'll make sure to take care of you.

In the meantime, please do your best to follow your doctor's orders—stay hydrated, get plenty of rest, and avoid overexerting yourself.

Hang in there. I'll be home soon.

Are you up to date with your flu shot? Make sure you are, as the risk of illness increases during the colder season. Staying indoors makes virus transmission easier, and the cold weather dries out the mucus in our sinuses, making it harder to prevent viruses from entering our bodies.

Thank you for your concern—I take my precautions as well.

Hm, do you have outfits in mind already? Are we doing ugly sweaters this year?

Frisky Kitty, I'll be here when you get back. I miss you too.

Hmm, all right. I'll look into this in my free time. It's nice to know you've found something to enjoy, Nadine.

As do I, my love. When I return, we have a date to finish.

I miss Kiekie, too. (っ˃̣̣̥ -˂̣̣̥ς)

Consider it done. My caretaker shall have her own exclusive pampering session once she's done writing her reports.

Of course, my darling Kali. You can cuddle next to me on your next break. If you want, I can also give you a head massage to help you relax.

Kiekie. Shouldn't you be sleeping at this time? Are you unwell?

The weekend's only a couple of days away; you're doing so well. You got this.

I'll allow you to drink one sugary beverage of your choice, to balance out the torture you've been enduring the whole week. But not too much caffeine, and please avoid energy drinks as these are unhealthy for you in the long run.

Then I wish you good dreams tonight.
