After Johann left, Luke opened the thermos flask and poured the oatmeal into a bowl.

The oatmeal was still warm as it was cooked not long ago. He placed the bowl on the table to let it cool down for a few minutes. Then, he grabbed a spoon and walked to the bedside. “Have some oatmeal, okay?"

Luca nodded.

She was well aware of her current condition, so she knew that she could not behave unreasonably. She should eat more if she could.

Luke picked up the spoon, sat down on the chair beside the bed, and fed her with the spoon.

Luca tried to open her mouth. She could only manage to open it slightly wider. Her cheek muscles seemed to burn. It was as if they were protesting against her trying to open her mouth.

Luke could not bear to see her in pain when he realized she could not open her mouth. He picked up the spoon and said, "Do you want to try using a straw?"

Luca nodded. It would be easier for her.

Luke picked up a clean straw and put it in the oatmeal, then he moved it closer to Luca's mouth.

She slowly sucked on it. However, Mrs. Nancy was unaware of her condition now. She cooked the oatmeal with some milk to make the oatmeal more creamy and fill up her stomach. The oatmeal was too creamy for her to suck it through a straw.

The nurse came in as she was supposed to give Luca another injection. She frowned when she saw her trying to drink the creamy oatmeal with the straw. "The oatmeal is too creamy."

"She can't take creamy oatmeals?" Luke was startled when the nurse said so.

The nurse shook her head. "It's not that she can't take it but the patient still can't eat with a spoon. She can only use a straw to take food. If the oatmeal is too creamy, she won't be able to suck it through a straw."

Luca stared into space as she let go of the straw. Indeed, she only managed to drink a little after sucking it for so long. Luke was stunned. He thought that it was because she refused to eat the oatmeal and she was trying to brush him off, which was why it took so long for her to eat it.

He did not notice all these minor details.

After all these years had passed, he was no longer able to take care of someone as well as he was able to in the past. He did not even notice these details.

Luke could not help but blame himself. The nurse looked at the creamy oatmeal and asked, “Did you cook it with milk to make it that creamy?" "I thought oatmeal was supposed to be cooked with milk," Luke explained.

The nurse shook her head. "There's no way she can drink it like that. Why don't you get someone to cook another serving and send it here? It's difficult for her to take such creamy oatmeal in her current condition."
