Gabriel lifted the herb cloth up by himself. ”I can carry things you carry Itsuki. It's going to pour rain here shortly.” He looked at Subaru and waited to see what he would say.
Subaru picked up Itsuki and started leading the way. ”If you say it like that then we shall rush back now and make sure that we miss the rain.” He leads the way back to the house. They reach the door as the rain slowly starts. He opened the door and stepped inside with Itsuki.
”Papa, I got a little wet. Will I be okay?” Itsuki looked at his clothes concerned.
”You can take your son and warm him up. I will help prepare some medicines down here while you help him warm up and get dry.” Gabriel bowed and started to light all those candles up. He went to the table and started with fever medicine. He poured that into a bowl and set it aside. Then he made a pain relief medicine. As he worked he didn't think about anything else but getting it done to go back home.
Subaru came back to the room and saw that Gabriel had made ten different medicines while he was helping Itsuki warm up. ”So fast. This would take me a week to prepare this much.”
”This is almost what we use in the hospital during one day of work. I have to stay ahead or else the patients are the ones that suffer.” Gabriel stopped what he was doing and looked at Subaru. ”Sorry, I tend to get carried away. I hope that this is the same way you make them. I made what I thought the people here might need.”
Subaru tested a little of each power and nodded his head. ”There are some slight differences but yours is better. I was thinking that we could go to the inn and get some dinner. Itsuki wants to have Mari's cooking. That is if you do not mind the company?”
”I do not mind. I will teach you how to make all of these at the hospital. I will need to catch up anyway. This is in good faith with a prosperous working relationship.” Gabriel bowed to Subaru.
”You can leave these and I will wrap them up overnight. I am glad that we will be building a long-lasting working relationship and friendship.” Subaru bows back and lifts up Itsuki who was hiding behind his legs.
”Let us be off then.” Gabriel walked back to the doorway and changed his shoes and looked at the rain as it got heavier. ”Are you sure that you want to go out in this weather?”
”Errrr, Itsuki? I think that it would be best that we cooked at home. The weather is dangerous, Okay? We will eat Mari's cooking another day.” Subaru let Itsuki down.
Itsuki looked out the door and saw that rain. ”Okay, but what about Elder Brother?”
