Pick Up the Rejected Pure Love chapter 75

Chapter 75: Lies

＜1＞

I wanted to spend more time with Eunha as the school year is just around the corner.

Today, I was going to spend the day studying with Eunha, but one problem arose.

“…37.6 Degrees?”

My head was pounding and my body was shaking from the morning, so I measured my fever and it was 37.6 Degrees.

He’s on the verge of melting in the sweltering heat, but even catching a cold…

It seems that it was caused by sleeping with the air conditioner on recently.

Her mother went to see her father in Busan and she said she would come up tomorrow evening.

Yes. It’s not like I’ve never been sick alone, so there’s no need to worry.

I changed my clothes and headed to the local otolaryngologist.

As I put on my mask and waited for my turn, the nurse called my name.

“Lee Hangyul. I’ll come into the treatment room.”

“Yes…”

Is it because it moves?

My body was heavier than when I woke up.

Still, it was never to the point of collapsing.

“Yes. What brings you here?”

“Ah- I think I caught a cold. There seems to be a fever too. When I measured it in the morning, it was 37.6 Degrees.”

“When did you start doing that?”

“Since waking up this morning.”

“I’ll try again eleven. Wait a minute.”

The doctor measured the temperature with a thermometer and said.

“It is 37.8 Degrees. Don’t you have a cough or a runny nose?”

“I seem to have a little bit of a cough… I don’t have a runny nose. Can you prescribe a prescription for me just in case?”

“Yes. We will prescribe you a 3-day supply. It’s summer, so it might be uncomfortable, but make sure to sleep covered with a blanket.”

“Yes. Thank you.”

“Have a good rest. You know?”

“Yes.”

I calculated the medical expenses and took the medicine.

I was going to eat, but it was annoying and I was tired, so I took the medicine on an empty stomach.

Ah- I forgot to buy porridge on the way home.

I’ll deliver it later.

I’m so tired right now.

I washed up in the bathroom and immediately lay down on the bed.

“Ah- I have to tell Eunha that I can’t go today…”

I looked for the cell phone by her bedside and turned on the screen.

However, due to Eunha’s personality, it was clear that if she was alone at home, she would come to take care of her unconditionally.

There are only about 100 days left until the CSAT, and even Eunha could catch a cold if you make a mistake…

I decided not to say that I was alone at home until tomorrow.

“Kuhmm…! Hmm···! Ah- ah-“

After clearing his voice, he called Eunha.

After a few beeps, Eunha answered the phone right away.

I heard Eunha’s voice mixed with aegyo.

-Hello~ Why is Hangyeol~? Did you want to hear my voice from morning?

“Were you studying?

– No. I was thinking about it~

“Ah- Eunha. I called because I thought I wouldn’t be able to go to Eunha’s house this afternoon.”

At my words, the charm disappeared from Eunha’s voice.

– Huh? Why? What’s going on?

“I think I caught a cold. It’s nothing serious, so don’t worry too much.”

-Ah- Really? Do you have a fever?”

“Very little? But it’s nothing to worry about.”

-Have you been to the hospital? What about medicine? Who is at home?

“I went to the hospital this morning and got some medicine. My mother is at home.”

-Ah… You’re not going anywhere? Aren’t you alone?

I felt a bit of remorse, but I couldn’t help it.

“Yes. Stay at Mom’s house.”

– Yes? I get it right away Did you eat breakfast and medicine?

“I took medicine, washed up, and lay down.”

-Yes. Okay. Get some rest for now When you wake up, can you leave me just one message? It’s okay not to send it if it’s difficult.

“How difficult would that be? I’ll leave a message when I wake up.”

-Okay. Sleep well! Contact us anytime if you need anything. Got it?

“Yeah~ Sorry for worrying you.”

– No! Have a good rest – will you quit? Come on, take a break.

“Yeah~”

After hanging up the phone with Eunha, I put her cell phone back next to the pillow.

But her head kept pounding, making it difficult for her to fall back to sleep.

I slowly closed my eyes and heard the sound of my heart beating.

I tried to sleep with that regular sound as my friend, but it was not enough.

When I open my eyes, I see a pure white ceiling, and when I close my eyes, I can only hear the sound of my heart.

It seems like something like this has happened before… But the feelings then and now are not that different.

“It hurts, it hurts…”

As time passed, I felt sleepy little by little, perhaps from the medicine.

It seemed that my eyelids were gradually getting heavy, and then I was on the verge of falling asleep.

I hope you don’t get sick when you wake up.

Ding-dong-!

I don’t know how long I slept, but someone rang the doorbell.

Did a courier arrive?

I didn’t hear anything for about 5 minutes, then Ding-dong-! And the doorbell rang again.

“Is it urgent…”

I struggled to remove the blanket and sat down on the bed.

But as expected, I didn’t want to go out for a bit.

But it could have been something really urgent, so I made up my mind and got out of bed and headed for the front door.

“Who are you..?”

Maybe it was because I had just woken up.

As I struggled to open the front door, a beautiful girl was waiting for me.

I met eyes with the most lovely Eunha in the world.

“Huh…? Were you sleeping?”

“Galaxy…? Why is Eunha here…”

“I’m sorry I came to you blindly. Hangyul said he was sick, so I tried to bring him a cooling sheet and a few things, but I didn’t know Hanyul would come out…! Is your mother not at home?”

“Ah- that’s…”

Shall we say that he went out for a while?

But I don’t want to lie to Eunha that much.

But to be honest, I think Eunha would be very angry…

While I was pondering without even thinking about it, Eunha secretly checked the house.

“Is anyone here? Did you go out for a while?”

“Ah- will that come in for now?”

“Ah- can I? Then I’ll stay for a while. Hangyul, go lie down.”

I opened the front door wide and let Eunha into the house.

“Where is Hangyul’s room?”

“Ah- this way. I didn’t organize it.”

“It’s okay. Han Kyul’s complexion is so bad. Go ahead and lie down.”

Upon entering my room, Eunha immediately put me on the bed.

“I’ll stay until Mother comes and then go. Would you like an ion drink? Or should I put a heat cooling sheet on it?”

Eunha took out a few things from inside the plastic bag.

They were all things I bought because I was sick.

It was unreasonable to lie further to Eunha like this.

“Hey Eunha. Actually, my mom went to Busan.”

“Huh? He said he was at home earlier.”

“Sorry. Because I don’t want to make you worry. Mom is going to Busan to see her father, so come up tomorrow…”

“What-? So, did Han Kyul go to the hospital alone and stay at home all alone?”

I shouldn’t have told you.

No. Still, since she said she would stay until her mother came, she must have been caught lying anyway.

As I was unable to say anything, Eunha looked at me with a slightly brusque expression.

You’re going to get angry too, right? But now, even with ten mouths, there was nothing to say.

“Sorry.”

“Hmm- have you eaten yet?”

“Huh? Ah- I haven’t eaten yet.”

“Then lie down for a while. I will make porridge.”

“No. Just have it delivered.”

“No. Lie down quietly got it? Aren’t you going to say it twice?”

“Yes.”

“Come on, lie down. I’ll clean the kitchen. Can I open the refrigerator and take out the ingredients?”

“Yes. Are you okay.”

“I’m getting a good rest.”

Eunha carefully pushed my shoulders and laid me on the bed.

Then I got up and headed to the kitchen.

“I’ll leave the door open, so call me if you need anything. Got it?”

“Yes.”

Eunha started making porridge in the kitchen.

The sound of rattling and grinding ingredients reached her ears.

Soon, a delicious smell slowly drifted into the room.

I was so grateful to see Eunha lying on the bed and cooking from the back.

But… I kept feeling like I was getting a little angry.

From noble mtl dot com

“Now- ah~ do it. It’s cooled down in the kitchen, so you can eat it right away.”

Eunha, who has been making egg porridge, fed the porridge directly to her mouth.

Although it was slightly hot, Eunha continued to feed the porridge little by little.

“Is the liver right?”

“Yes. It’s so delicious.”

“Is there anything else you want to eat?”

As I shook my head, Eunha brought another spoonful of porridge to my mouth.

“From now on, I will eat it myself.”

“Would you like to? Here.”

Eunha passed the tray to me.

Without a word, I emptied the porridge that Eunha made.

“Give me the tray. I’ll put it in the sink.”

“Ah- I’ll do it. It’s not that painful.”

“I want to do it for you. Where are the medicines?”

It’s really okay… Eunha’s eyes were too stubborn.

“It’s on the table.”

“I’ll be back.”

Eun-ha hasn’t laughed once since she confessed that her mother wasn’t home.

Eunha was taking good care of me, but she seemed a bit angry.

“Okay- Here’s some medicine and water.”

After handing me the water and medicine I brought from the kitchen, Eunha sat down next to the bed again.

“Hey, Eunha.”

“Yes. Hangyeol.”

“I’m sorry I lied earlier.”

I apologized, but Eunha still didn’t smile.

“Let’s take medicine first. That story later.”

What should I do… It’s a little scary.
