BXBX NOVEL Chapter 77 - Best Day Ever
"Adam is that you" she uttered as she stared at the young man\'s face.
"Yes aunt, it is me" answered Adam as he couldn\'t help but smile and have tears of joy.
All the hardship Adam had been through and everything he had experienced had paid off as he saw his aunt reawaken and she could now see how much he had grown.
"How long has it been," she asked seeing his face and body that looked much older than she last remembered of him.
"We can talk about that later, but let me call the nurses for them to check your body and see this miracle" stated Adam as he avoided her question and pretended to be shocked and overjoyed.
Adam was obviously elated that his aunt had finally awake, but he had to exaggerate and feign ignorance to how she had awoken, so that there would be no suspicion around him.
"Nurses quickly, come and see. My aunt suddenly woke up" called out Adam pretending to be overwhelmed as he dragged Cole inside.
The nurses couldn\'t help but be shocked as they saw Adam\'s aunt sat on the hospital bed with a confused expression.
She seemed healthy and also looked slightly younger as the pill not only recovered her body, but also improved it slightly.
"It\'s a miracle" wailed the nurse that returned to the room and instantly began regulating Adam\'s aunt\'s body.
"What happened?" asked his aunt who was baffled by the reaction.
"Is that Cole. My word, how long has it been" she asked as she recognised Cole\'s face.
Slowly the nurses began explaining to her what had occurred, but she couldn\'t accept that she had spent 2 and a half years in a coma, leaving Adam alone to fend for himself in the cruel world.
"So who paid my medical bills," she asked with a worried expression, dreading the debt that she may be in.
"Oh your adoptive son has been paying your medical bills and visiting you regularly" answered the nurse, who had seen Adam in the hospital many times and knew about his situation.
Looking at the child that she raised, she could no longer recognise him and saw a strong, independent, young man that cared for his unwell aunt.
She couldn\'t help but begin to cry as everything that occurred overwhelmed her in joy, confusion and sadness all at once.
"It\'s okay aunt, after they check on your body and you can leave, we can take you around. You haven\'t missed much anyway" reassured Adam as he hugged his aunt.
All the misery he had been through had all been worth it to see his aunt awaken, and Adam knew that if it wasn\'t for the Dungeon System he would still be working multiple jobs and struggling to afford his aunt\'s medical bills.
He also knew that without the system, he wouldn\'t have been able to get the B Rank Mortal Reocvery Pill that saved his aunt\'s life.
[Although your an annoying bastard. I must thank you and I will return the favour to you, your creator, or whatever bastard is behind this system] vowed Adam to himself as he saw his aunt\'s smile for the first time in years.
After multiple checks on her body, the doctors were shocked to find that her body had not only completely recovered, but was also very healthy and almost didn\'t have any issues at all.
All that was left was for them to pay their medical bills for all the checks, which Cole jumped in to pay for and they left the hospital together.
Adam lowered the Hunter\'s mind effect slightly, which he had learnt to control and balance with his own mindset, and enjoyed the day with his aunt.
He transferred 1000 gold into his account, without regretting his decision in the slightest, and spent the best day of his life with his aunt and Cole.
He took her clothes shopping and anything she remotely liked was bought for her by either Adam or Cole, who wanted to spoil her after all the time she missed and they went for a nice three course meal in an expensive restaurant that was delcious.
After spending the day together, neither of them could wipe the wide smiles on their face as they returned to their building.
Adam showed his aunt around his apartment and showed her the largest master bedroom that he had reserved for her, and she was continuously shocked by the wealth that Cole and Adam displayed.
"How are you two so rich" she suddenly blurted out as they sat together in Adam\'s living room.
"I am working for my father\'s business that is quite successful" answered Cole.
"And I have a small company that is development and had many jobs over the past few years to be able to afford your medical bills" answered Adam.
Both of their answers were honest, but were so vague, she didn\'t know what to assume.
"Well I am happy to see you both so grown, and living together" stated his aunt, assuming that it was Cole living in the third bedroom that they didn\'t enter.
Instantly the atmosphere was awkward, as Adam decided to clear up her assumption.
"It is actually somebody else that lives in that room that isn\'t Cole and she is my business partner" corrected Adam.
Instantly his aunt gave him a cheeky wink along with Cole, that annoyed Adam as he began to defensively explain the situation, causing his aunt and Cole to laugh at him.
Everything happened so quickly and they had a great day, that couldn\'t have went better. After Adam\'s aunt cooked them a nice meal for dinner, they all went to their rooms to sleep and Cole returned to his penthourse.
Adam was happy with how the day had turned out and the long awaited reunion with his aunt had finally occurred, however he couldn\'t shake off the shady feeling he had when he thought about his aunt\'s previous vegetative state.
