“Yannis, make yourself at home, and don’t be shy,” Nathan said, his voice warm and mellow, as he placed the cookies between the two youngsters.

“Got it,” Yannis replied, his eyes crinkling into a gentle smile. He gazed at the tray of cute little cookies. Each cookie was made with care, all in Zinnia’s favorite shapes.

“Sit down. I’ll check your pulse,” Zinnia said. She set aside the cookies, eager to find out how Nathan was really doing.

Nathan sat down beside her and extended his wrist. Zinnia placed her fingers on his pulse point.

The living room fell so quiet one could hear a pin drop. Zinnia knitted her brows. Yannis shot a glance at Nathan. Nathan gave a slight shake of his head, signaling Yannis to stay calm.

“Master, I can’t shake the feeling that something’s off with your body,” Zinnia murmured. “Now that I can finally feel your pulse, it just seems like you have a bit of pneumonia.”

Zinnia focused intently, her fingers lingering on Nathan’s wrist as she carefully assessed every nuance of his pulse. Overall, there were no major issues, just persistent pneumonia.

Yannis’s eyes flickered as he listened to Zinnia’s diagnosis. ‘Nathan’s condition is so critical, yet all she could detect was pneumonia. Just how transcendent Nathan’s medical skills?‘ he thought to himself.

“Let me check your other hand,” Zinnia said, frowning. ‘Something still feels off,‘ she thought.

Nathan hesitated for a split second but still extended his hand. Zinnia had barely placed her fingers on his wrist for a few seconds, and Nathan said, “See? I’m fine, Zinnia. The little buns I baked are ready. I’ll go get them.”

Nathan withdrew his hand, stood up, and headed out. Zinnia withdrew her hand, unconsciously rubbing her fingertips together. She seemed lost in thought, pondering the pulse she’d just taken.

Yannis subtly observed Zinnia’s expression. “What’s wrong? Did you notice anything off?”
