Chapter 42

I paced around in the living room. The bedroom door was opened by a sleepy Minhyuk. He looked at me as he rubbed his groggy eyes. "Hi." he said "You're up early today." His voice was sore. 

"Do you want some breakfast?" I asked. "I will make some before I go--" I stopped and looked at my friend. He wasn't his usual happy and playful self. He walked to the sofa with slow and weak steps and slept again. 

"Minhyuk" I called "Are you okay?" "You don't look so well."

I walk towards him. He lay down on the sofa and did not answer. I moved my hand to touch his forehead, check and let go so quickly. "You're burning up!" I exclaimed. I got up to take a wet towel but was stopped by him. 

"No… I'm fine." He said. His face had gone feverish red. 

"You need to rest now, okay?" I told him.
