CHAPTER 9: PROBLEM SOLVED
An hour passed. Cilan, Bianca, Frank, Flora, and Conrad waited for Hilbert to get up. But would Hilbert be cured? Let's take a look...
Hilbert was stirring during his nap. He was moving around. Eventually, his eyes started to open slowly. Bianca was right by his side, and so was Cilan, so they would be the first ones to see whether or not Hilbert was cured. And now is the time to see.
Hilbert's eyes opened completely. He looked up at Bianca and Cilan and smiled.
"Guys?" said Hilbert.
"Yes, Hilbert?" asked Bianca.
"Where am I?" asked Hilbert.
"You're in my house," said Cilan. "Don't worry - you're safe with us. Do you remember who we are?"
"Yes, I do," said Hilbert. "It's Cilan and Bianca. I remember who you are - you two are my friends."
Frank looked across the room. He saw that Hilbert remembered Cilan and Bianca.
"Cilan! Bianca!" said Frank. "What's going on with Hilbert?"
"He's cured!" said Bianca excitedly. "No more amnesia!"
"Amnesia?" asked Hilbert, looking at Bianca weirdly.
"This might seem a bit strange to you," said Bianca, "but you have had amnesia for the past 3 days. You couldn't remember my name, or anyone else's name, and you didn't take social cues well at all. You did quite a bit of crazy stuff while you had amnesia. Luckily for you, Cilan and I took very good care of you to make sure you were out of trouble."
"It does seem weird that I had amnesia," said Hilbert. "But thank you so much for helping me."
Hilbert and Bianca hugged.
"We'll take you to see your parents," said Cilan.
"Okay," said Hilbert.
Cilan and Bianca helped Hilbert up. The three of them, along with Frank, went to see Flora and Conrad. The couple were in the backyard, sitting under a tree. When Conrad and Flora saw Hilbert, they were excited.
"Is everything OK with Hilbert?" asked Conrad.
"A-OK," said Bianca. "Hilbert is cured of his amnesia."
"I am," said Hilbert. "How are you doing, Mom and Dad?"
Flora and Conrad got up and hugged Hilbert.
"Oh, Hilbert!" said Flora. "We were so worried about you. We were afraid that you wouldn't get better."
"Thanks, Mom," said Hilbert. "I appreciate it."
"We're glad to have you back," said Conrad.
"And I'm glad to remember you all," said Hilbert.
Bianca and Cilan were happy as they looked on.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the gate at the side of the house.
"Who could that be?" asked Frank.
"I think I know who it is," said Cilan. He walked over to the gate and opened it.
The person turned out to be Lenora.
"Lenora!" said Cilan. "We have good news for you! Hilbert is cured!"
Lenora went inside the backyard. She closed the gate behind her.
"Such a pleasant surprise," said Lenora. "That's why I came here - to see if that remedy worked."
"It sure did," said Frank. "Hilbert is all better."
"And Bianca and I helped Hilbert so much," said Cilan.
Hilbert saw Lenora. He waved to her.
"Hi, Lenora," said Hilbert.
"Nice to see you, Hilbert!" said Lenora. "Cilan told us about everything. You are lucky to have friends like Bianca and Cilan."
"I sure am," said Hilbert.
"We can thank you for getting us the book," said Bianca.
"I think you and Cilan are the heroes of this," said Lenora. "Without you, Hilbert wouldn't have gotten the help he needed."
"Definitely," said Hilbert. "Anything is possible with good friends. And I am thankful for that."
Awww. It seems that friendship is indeed a wonderful thing. And it is good that Hilbert had good friends to help him out.
