I intended to pretend to be asleep, but I accidentally fell asleep instead. I think I became too tired from watching all that madness. I woke up when I heard a knock on the door.
"Come in," I answered, sitting up on the bed. The family doctor walked in.
"Were you sleeping? I'm sorry, should I come back?"
"No, not at all."
"Okay," he said, drawing closer to me. "How are you feeling?"
"Tired. I just feel tired, that's all."
"Beta Benjamin was worried, so I'm going to check your BP, pulse, heart rate, and all of that. I hope you don't mind."
"No, I don't."
He did some checkups, and after that, he concluded that I was in great health.
"I was just mentally stressed," I murmured.
"Oh, I see."
"Tell Beta Benjamin not to worry about me; I'll go to bed after I take a shower. I won't be able to join them for dinner."
