Last night I had a bad headache, and I didn't feel well.
This morning I still didn't feel well, so I didn't go to work.
My wife said, "You're sick. Go see a doctor at the hospital."
We took a taxi to the hospital.
The doctor asked me, "What's bothering you?"
I said I had a headache, I was very tired, and I didn't want to eat.
The doctor said, "It's nothing serious. You're just too tired."
He gave me some medicine and told me to take it three times a day.
He also said that for the next couple of days I should rest more and drink more water.
On the way home, my wife bought me some fruit.
Now I'm already much better.
