Luigi is six year old in this chapter. This story happens during the My Baby Brother Luigi story. It happens in the next month of chapter five.
Out of all the games Luigi's friends taught him, handball was his favorite. It was where there a wall and it's one vs one, If one player miss hitting a ball or player hit a ball on a ground, he or she is out. The winner will win and compete another player. It took him a while to understand it but eventually he got the hang of it and loved it. One day, they had been playing for hours and all the kids got caught up in the game that they almost didn't realize that it had started to rain. Soon, their feet was covered in mind and their hair and clothes were soaking wet.
"Luigi!"
Luigi turned around to see his older brother Mario calling out for him with a umbrella. The red Italian man motioned to him that it was time to go home. Luigi said bye to all of his friends and followed his brother back to their house.
Before he could enter the house, his brother led him to the entrance of the kitchen so he wouldn't track mud through the living room. He helped him clean up and get ready for dinner.
"How was your day Luigi?" Mario asked at dinner.
"It was great!"
"Every day is with you." Mario teased.
Luigi laughed. "Yeah, I guess. We played that handball game again. But then it started to rain and you told me it was time to come home."
Although he loved for Luigi to be out with his friends, Mario always made sure a he's accompanied him and watched over him during the day. He understood himself that he was being overprotective but since he meant so much to him, he wasn't going to take any chances. Mario couldn't forget how well he took care of Luigi.
They continued to talk about each others days during dinner. Suddenly, Luigi sneezed.
"Excuse you." Mario smiled.
Then he sneezed again. And again.
"Luigi, are you okay?"
"Yeah. My nose just tickles." Mario looked at him before he continued to eat. He hoped he wasn't getting sick.
He sneezed four more times.
"Okay, that's it. Go to bed"
"Mario, don't you think you're overreacting?" Luigi asked.
"I don't care. I don't want you sick."
"Yeah, but I'm fine okay." Luigi said. But then, he sneezed again, causing him to hit his head on the table.
"A-achoo!"
Luigi put a hand on his older brother's arm. "Mario, I'm fine okay."
"Achoo!"
Mario glared at his little brother. "That it, go to bed young man, I'll call the doctor."
Mario were in Luigi's room as he watched the doctor take his temperature.
"Well Mr. Bruno, you're right." The doctor said.
"I told you." Mario tells Luigi playfully.
"However, there is nothing to fear."
"There isn't?" Mario made his way and sat beside Luigi on his bed.
"No. It's only a little runny nose. He'll be fine." The doctor put up his equipment as he explained to his brother what needed to be done. "He just needs some rest and warm soup. Either way, he should be feeling better by tomorrow. But Luigi," The doctor made sure the boy was looking at him before he continued, "no more playing outside in the rain. And that goes for you Mario."
Mario thanked the doctor as he left the house.
"I don't like this." Luigi whined.
Mario brushed a hair away from his hair. "I know bro. But it will be okay. You'll feel better soon. I promise."
"What am I going to do now? I don't even feel like leaving the bed. Wait! I don't have to!" Luigi smiled. "You can read me a story or play a board game-"
"Or you can rest. Like the doctor said Luigi." Mario said as Luigi pouted.
Mario laughed as he watched Luigi slurp away the last of the chicken soup.
"Was it good?"
"Yeah." He smiled. Mario took a napkin and wiped the drop of soup that fell on his chin while he was slurping the soup. He thought about him taking etiquette lessons whether there a royalty coming to visit the kingdom or a ball in Peach's Castle. He didn't want to change him but it wouldn't hurt either. Perhaps Peach should join him too.
"Do you feel better?"
"A little. I'm still very tired."
"The doctor said you needed rest."
"But I don't want to sleep. I'm too wide awake."
Mario laughed. "You alway awake."
"Well, if I can't play outside or play games, what can I do?"
"Do you want me to read to you?"
Luigi's eyes lit up. "Sure!"
Mario got up and walked over to his bookshelf. Since he was starting to learn how to read and write by himself, he was getting a love for books, he's blaming Toadsworth for this ever since he give Luigi a history lessons since he's not ready to go to school and not at all, Mario is also force to join them since someday he's might rule the kingdom and become King of the Mushroom Kingdom since he's dating Princess Peach. A few weeks ago he asked him if he could have books for his room. It wasn't hard for him to say yes. He walked back to the bed and joined Luigi on the mattress.
"Oh! That's my favorite." He said with a runny nose. He wiped his nose again with the handkerchief as Mario opened the book. It was the story about a young girl receives a beautiful wooden Nutcracker as a gift from her favorite godfather. The girl and the Nutcracker set off on a fantastic adventure to find the Sugar Plum Princess, the only person with the power to break the enchantment curse and stop the evil mouse king. Although it was November, Luigi still loved Christmas, he loved the pictures the book had of the Land of Parthenia. It was colorful, treats, and looked like lots of fun.
"Can we go to see the ballet one day?"
"That sounds nice. First, let me get you feeling better. Luigi?"
"Okay."
Mario began reading and Luigi followed the words as he spoke. He loved his brother's voice. It was sweet and pretty like him. About half way through the story, Mario felt a heavier weight on his side. He looked down and smiled. As he was reading, Luigi had fallen asleep and was now resting his head on his arm. He set the book down on the bedside table and moved his body so he was laying down again. He wiped Luigi nose and tucked him in, planting a kiss on his forehead.
"Goodnight my little man. Feel better."
Luigi woke up to the sun shining through his room. He didn't remember falling asleep. He sat up and took in a deep breath. He smiled.
He wasn't sick anymore. It was just like the doctor said. He wasn't sure if it was the soup or the sleep, but he suddenly felt so much better. Luigi jumped out of bed and ran to find his older brother. He found him in the kitchen making some breakfast.
"Mario! Mario! I feel so much better!"
"You do?"
"Yeah, listen." Luigi took a deep breath through his nose. "See? I'm not all stuffy and runny anymore! I feel great!"
Mario Chuckle. "Oh Luigi, I'm so happy." He knelt down to hug him.
"Can I go out and play with my friends now?"
Mario laughed. "A few things first. You need to eat breakfast and then I want the doctor to check on you. Just in case."
Luigi smiled. "Okay."
After breakfast, the doctor visited Luigi again and wasn't at all surprised to see that he was right. Luigi was completely better and he ran out of the house to find his friends.
