Greg opened his eyes slowly. He was greeted by foreign darkness. Where was he? Greg tried to get up but he collapsed immediately. He still felt a terrible pain from his stomach.

"Where am I?" Greg asked himself.

Slowly, his sense came back to him. Finally, he saw unfamiliar ceiling above him. He felt IV attached to his hand. And then, he felt something…, someone held his hand. He saw a man sleeping beside his bed.

"Sidney…,"

Sidney was sleeping. His head was on the bed. Greg had never seen his twin brother like this. His hair was a complete mess. He hung his jacket, leave him with his crumpled shirt. He put down his glasses on the night stand. Greg examined Sidney's face. There were dark circles under his eyes. He looked so tired.

"Uum….," Sidney yawned a bit.

Sidney opened his eyes. Greg watched silently as Sidney woke up. He smiled when Sidney stared at him, right in the eyes.

"Greg…? You're awake?" he said.

"I am…, Sid…," Greg answered with a hoarse voice.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah."

"Thank God!" Sidney sighed as he put his glasses back.

Awkward silence.

"Where am I?" Greg said.

"Caduceus."

"How?"

"I…. I brought you here," Sidney said, "I found you at your house 3 days ago."

"What? I've been unconscious for 3 days?" Greg was so surprised to find the truth.

"I found you there. Laying…. Unconscious….," Sidney muttered to himself.

"Sidney…?"

"You were so cold… So pale…" Sidney began to tremble.

"Sidney, are you alright?"

"I called Caduceus," Sidney ignored Greg completely, "they brought you to the emergency wards. They said that there were a lot of poisons in your blood. Your vitals were dropping fast. They almost lost you…,"

"Sidney!! Calm down!!"

"I thought you were dead," tears began running down his face, "just like her."

Greg didn't know what to do. He couldn't stand seeing his brother like this. Sidney cried so hard. His body was shacking. The night of his wife's death still haunted him.

Greg forced himself to sit up. He hugged his brother tightly. Sidney began to sob on Greg's shoulder.

"Why, Greg?! Why did you let this happen to you?! Why I must saw someone I loved dying again?" Sidney cried.

"I'm sorry Sidney," Greg said to him, "I'm sorry."

They just hold each other for a long time.

"Promise me that you will be okay," Sidney said, "don't you ever dare to leave me alone!"

"Ok. You can count on me Sid," Greg whispered to Sidney's ear, "I won't leave you, you know. You are my little Sidney after all."

Sidney pull out from his brother's embrace, blushing, "Greg! What are you doing?!"

Greg chuckled a bit, "It's always fun to tease you."

Sidney wiped his tears. Greg just smiled as Sidney blushed deeply.

"You know, it reminds me of the old days," Greg said, "you always slept at my room whenever you were having a nightmare."

Sidney blushed again. He never forgot it. He always came to Greg's bedroom whenever he was having a nightmare. Greg always calmed him down. He hugged him and whispered comforting words. After that they would sleep together. And then, the nightmare disappeared.

"Yeah, you are right," Sidney fixed his glasses position, "but now, you sleep! I must go back to work."

"Heh…! Look at you," Greg sad, "I was the one who take care of you. Now you are the one who take care of me."

"Everybody change, Greg."

"Yes, of course…," Greg smiled to Sidney, "but we…? We never change."

"What do you mean?"

"You are still my little Sidney."

Sidney smiled, "Shut up, Greg."

The brothers laughed. It's been a long time for them to laugh together like this. They smiled to each other. Sidney stared at Greg for a long time.

"What is it Sid?" Greg asked.

"Nothing. I just remembered that I heard your voice when you collapsed."

"Wow, Sid. I don't know you can do telepathy."

"Sleep, Greg. I think you've lost your mind."

"Ok, big brother Sidney." Greg laid down.

"Get well soon, Greg. I'm tired being your big brother."

Sidney went out from Greg's room.
