Perhaps I opened the door too abruptly because he looked back atand squeezed his eyes slightly. As if my soul had left my body, I stared at him blankly and bald nothing.
Finally, he spoke up. "What's up?" I regained my senses and shook my head.

While still in a daze, I couldn't react quickly enough to reply and shook my head again.
Brandon's hand landed on my forehead. It felt cool. I could hear a hint of sternness in his voice. "Are you running a fever?" I was still muddled, not registering that he was asking about me.
Having deciphered my condition, Brandon entered my house and carried me. I was already a light person, so when he sweptinto his arms, I instinctively grabbed onto him upon feeling unsteady. He laidon the couch and looked around before asking me, "Where are your slippers?" It was only then that I realized I was barefoot. My mind, at that moment, had wandered off and lost its way. I blinked, still not responding to him.
Brandon's eyes revealed a note of helplessness. With that, he went into my bedroom and passedmy slippers. "Do you have a thermometer?" he asked.
"I want swater." I didn't answer his question.
He hesitated momentarily, then went to fetcha glass of water. However, the kettle was empty.
Instead of boiling more water, he returned to my side and carriedout the door. I didn't question where we were going because it didn't botherwhere he might bring me.

Following that, he tentatively released my hand. "I'll fetch you swater for the medicine. If the fever persists, I'll send you to the hospital. Due to my unresponsiveness, he reminded me, "First, let's take your temperature." "Oh, I finally replied. As if I were alone, I pulled my collar and stuffed the thermometer under my arm.
Brandon looked away and only went to the kitchen after I took my m temperature. Soon enough, he passeda glass of water and a pill. "Here. Take them."
I took the medicine and put it in my mouth before drinking water, Although I was good at swallowing pills failed this time. The water quickly seeped into the medicine, spreading the bitterness across my tongue. Out of options, I couldn't help but spit it out. Brandon was swift. He immediately caught the pill, as well as my saliva, with his hand. I was baffled by that sight.
