Fever rush

Scene 1 - A bunch of 10 colleagues taking a lift up to office
Bimbo: Hey, why didn't EK join us for lunch today?
Colleague A: Oh her son is sick, so she gotta stay home n look after her son.
Bimbo *very loudly: Huh? Her son got dengue fever ah??
-- Sudden awkward silence in lift.......
Colleague A: Errrr... I didn't ask but hopefully not so serious.......

Scene 2 - A colleague has dengue fever and was admitted to hospital
Me: Let's go visit LC in hospital today (Tuesday)
Bimbo: Aiyah, today I got appointment leh... Actually I prefer to visit during the weekends. Can ask her to stay until weekend or not?
Me: Time to update my blog............................................
