33. Love Brutally

Claude found himself inexplicably drowsy every day. His body felt twice as weak, he had been experiencing severe exhaustion, making even the simplest movements difficult due to overwhelming drowsiness.

Every day, Kane diligently fed Claude, always by his side at meal times. As time passed, Claude felt his condition worsening, unable to even go to the bathroom without assistance, always needing to be carried.

His legs couldn't even support his own weight, almost as if he were paralyzed.

"Kane...," Claude murmured weakly. Despite it being morning, when one should feel refreshed after a night's sleep, his body felt utterly drained. Kane faithfully helped Claude clean himself in silent.

"I'm tired," Claude said faintly, drowsiness struck him once more like a speeding truck.

"Just go back to sleep," Kane nonchalantly replied.

"Kane...," Claude couldn't hold on any longer before drifting back to sleep.
