＜1＞
I decided to go see cherry blossoms with Hanyul this weekend.
I was looking forward to it, but I am currently in a very bad condition.
I had a little fever and going to school was a bit difficult, but I decided to go to school.
As soon as I opened the classroom door, Han Kyul greeted her and shook her hand.
She waved her hand with difficulty as she looked a little strained.
But as soon as he saw me helpless, Han Kyul immediately got up from his seat.
“Eunha. Are you sick?”
Han Kyul approached me and looked at me worriedly.
She didn’t want to worry, but it was so hard that she couldn’t fake a face.
“Yeah… I’m a little unwell today.”
“Shouldn’t I be taking a break from school? Why don’t you tell the teacher right now and rest at home?”
“Ummm…Not that much. I took medicine in the morning and I think I will be fine if I rest for a while.”
Even after saying that, he was always looking at me with a worried expression.
“If it hurts too much, leave early. Understand?”
“Yes. Don’t worry.”
“Even if you say that with that look on your face… Sit down. Let me know if you need anything.”
“Yes. Thank you. I won’t overdo it, so don’t worry.”
As soon as I sat down weakly, I fell straight down.
Kkeuh… I don’t think it’s been a long time since my body was this heavy.
Today, the wind coming through the window felt cooler.
I tried to close the window properly, but my body was heavy and I couldn’t move.
But then I heard the sound of a window closing with a thud.
Since there was only Han Kyul in the classroom, it must have been Han Kyul.
I should have raised my head and said thank you, but I didn’t have the strength to do so.
When I was about to say thank you later, something was placed on my back.
“It looks like it will be cold, so I will cover you with my clothes. Get some rest. Call me if you need anything. I’ll stay by your side until Jeong Ha-rim comes back.”
“Ehhhhh”
I spoke with my face down.
Hangyul stayed next to me without saying a word until Harim came.
“Why are you sitting in my seat?”
Eventually, after Harim came, we had a short conversation and conveyed the situation.
Hangyul continued the conversation with Harim in a very low voice.
“Eunha is sick. Call me if you need anything.”
“Um- shouldn’t I be leaving early?”
“It’s not like that. If it’s too bad, I’ll leave early.”
“Yes.”
“Yes. I will go to my seat.”
I could feel Han Kyul rise from her seat.
I decided to say thank you later.
Harim sat down in her seat and spoke softly.
“Eunha. Let me know if you need any help.”
“Yes…”
I raised my head for a moment during morning ordinance, and during class, I only raised my head, but I didn’t listen to the class.
After lunch, all I wanted to do was go to the health room and rest.
No. Is it okay to leave early? It hurts so much.
Harim said that my complexion looked very bad.
“Eunha. My complexion is really really bad. Why don’t you just leave early?”
“Hmm…Really should I do that. It seems to be more painful than in the morning.”
“Let’s talk to the teacher and go home. Take a taxi.”
“That should be the case… I tried to stay until the end if possible.”
“Let’s go. He could have gone to lunch.”
I stood up with Harim.
As if he was looking at me, Han Kyul came straight to me.
“Why? You want to go to the infirmary?”
“Eunha, I thought it would be better to leave early, so I’m going to tell the teacher and come back.”
“Yes. I hope so. Go home and get some rest Is anyone at home by any chance?”
“Um- you must have a brother.”
“Yes. Come on, go to the office.”
“Yes. Don’t worry about Han Kyul, let’s go eat.”
“Don’t worry about me.”
“Then see you tomorrow.”
After a short greeting with Han-gyeol, I went to the teachers’ room and told the teacher.
Harim called a taxi in front of the school and I got home a little early.
My older brother, who was watching TV in the living room, looked at me in amazement.
“Leave early?”
“Yes. I’m not feeling well.”
“Have you been to the hospital? Will you come with me?”
“I have household medicine. I think you’ll be fine if you eat that.”
“Have you had lunch?”
“I have no appetite. I’ll get some rest.”
“Draw. Send me a message if you need anything.”
“Yeah..”
As soon as I entered the room, I changed my clothes.
I was on an empty stomach, but after taking my medicine, I went straight to bed.

After pulling the blanket up to my chin, I went straight to sleep.
My head was pounding, but I was drowsy, probably because of the medicine.
In the midst of such pain, Han Kyul kept coming up in my head.
Han Kyul isn’t my guardian, and I shouldn’t think of him when I’m having a hard time…
But… I want to see it.
＜2＞
How long did you fall asleep?
I don’t think I slept soundly.
Even though I woke up, I closed my eyes for a long time.
It’s less than in the morning, but my head still throbs.
I wanted to drink water, but I didn’t have the strength to go all the way to the refrigerator.
In the end, I sent a message to my brother on the cell phone next to my bed.
I sent a brief ‘Bring me some water’ .
1 Disappeared right away, but it wasn’t long before a sound could be heard from outside the room.
My sister is sick, but what are you doing if you don’t bring it right away?
Still, I decided to thank you for taking care of me.
Soon, my door rang twice.
“Come in…”
It was a very small voice, so it probably didn’t reach beyond the door.
Normally, my brother would have come in without hesitation, but he did not come in today.
In the end, I opened the door with a heavy body.
“Since when did you knock so well…?”
I couldn’t see well because my eyes were half closed.
But as soon as I opened the door, the person I saw wasn’t my brother, but Han Kyul.
No matter how bad my condition is right now, seeing my brother and mistaking him for Han Kyul… That’s serious.
After rubbing my eyes, I looked at his face again, and he still looked the same.
“Huh?”
“Ah- Eunwoo hyung said I should go out in the evening. He stayed with me and left 15 minutes ago.”
“Uh…?”
“I got a call from Eunwoo hyung and he told me to deliver a bottle of mineral water to Eunha.”
Tak-!
As soon as I realized that what was in front of my eyes was constant, I closed the door.
I crawled onto the bed and called my brother on my cell phone.
Click- and my brother answered the phone.
“Why is Han Kyul in my house…?”
-Hangyeol? I called to see if you were okay, so I told you to come home if you’re worried.
“What if I call a busy kid like this…!”
-You seemed very worried, so I thought it would be better to see it for myself. And in the evening, I had to go out, so it was a bit like leaving me alone.
“Mom or Dad. You should have contacted Hyunjoo unnie…”
-Am I stupid? Of course I did. Mom and Dad said it was impossible today, and Hyun-ju also said it was impossible today. I couldn’t help it, brother.
“Haa- ok. I’ll just hang up.”
-Uh. Leave a message if you need anything. I’ll buy it when I get home.
“Yes.”
I put down my phone and headed back to visit.
After exhaling once, I quietly opened the door.
Hangyul was still standing holding a bottle of mineral water.
“You keep annoying Hangyul… I’m sorry.”
“Friends can be like that. Living water here.”
“Ah- thank you.”
“Is… Am I in the living room?”
“No… Come in…”
I opened the door wide and brought Hanyul into the room.
“How are you feeling?”
“It’s better than breakfast…But the room is a bit messy because I couldn’t organize it. I’m embarrassed.”
“Not at all. Is it very tidy? It smells good.”
“hahahaha… Ah-don’t stand, sit down. It’s okay to sit in a chair.”
Uh, the hair is a booth and faces the only unprotected state …
Still, when I saw Han Kyul’s face, I felt relieved and felt very good.
I was also thrilled to think that he was worried about me enough to contact my brother.
“Then I’ll sit down without hesitation.”
Hangyul dragged her chair to the side of the bed and sat down.
I carefully sat down on the bed.
Han Kyul saw the water bottle he was holding and reached out to her.
“Give me the water bottle. I’ll open it.”
“A- I can do this much alone.”
I opened a water bottle myself and took a sip.
I closed the lid and put it on the bedside table.
“Have you eaten?”
“No. Not yet.”
“Do you want to eat first? I’ll buy you some porridge.”
As Han Kyul tried to get up from her chair, I quietly grabbed hold of the hem of Han Kyul’s clothes.
Then he spoke in a strained voice.
“I’m not hungry… please stay by my side…”
As soon as he heard my voice, Han Kyul sat down again.
“Did you… Worry a lot over there?”
That’s a very petty question.
I know that when I’m sick, I have no choice but to answer these questions.
Even though I can tell by looking at his expression, I wanted to hear Han Kyul’s voice in person.
Even if I wasn’t by your side, I hoped that I would be buried in Han Kyul’s daily life.
In response to my question, Han Kyul smiled lightly and said,
“Yes.”
“Really?”
“I couldn’t play basketball.”
Laughter burst out at Hangyul’s mischievous smile.
“Poop-! Are you really worried?”
“Yeah. I was really worried. All day I thought about Eunha.”
Ah really… As time goes on, I think I’ll like Hangyul more and more.
“Actually…I can’t help but think about it.”
