Day 3 (III)

When I entered our room, I immediately lie down on the bed and covered myself with a blanket.

"We'll just call you when it's time to eat." I heard Coleen say.

"You can chat us on gc when you need something huh?" Laura said. I just nodded.

When they left, I suddenly stood up and goes straight to the bathroom to find a basin. I took a towel from my bag and soaked it. I put the wet towel on my forehead to reduce the heat of my body. I have to take care of myself because no one will take care of me now. I don't want to be a burden to them and I want to be with them in the activities that will be done tomorrow.

I haven't even fallen asleep when the door opened and Lovie entered.

"Please take care of yourself," Lovie said worriedly.

"Of course. We still have activities tomorrow." I said, smiling.

She dropped some medicine on a table near me. "Drink it but your stomach must be full. What time did your drink your medicine earlier?"

I looked up at the ceiling and remembered what time I have taken the medicine. "I forgot but I'll take medicine at 8 pm."

"All right. Rest first, we'll call you when it's time to eat." Lovie said before she left the room.

I closed my eyes again to go to sleep but just a few minutes later I opened my eyes again when I heard a knock on the door. I stood up even though my body was weakening. When I opened it, I saw Yohan and he was carrying bottled water.

"I just want to give this to you. Just drink a lot of water, okay?" He said briefly.

I took the bottled water. "Yes, I will. Do you wanna come in?" I opened the door widely.

"No. You need rest." Yohan replied while smiling at me.

"Thank you for this," I said in my weakest voice but I was forced to smile.

Yohan waved at me before he left in front of me. I went back to bed and wrapped myself in a blanket. I felt someone enter but I didn't pay attention, maybe it was just Sheena. I just fell asleep but not continuously because my eyes were watering and it is so hot.

"Louise?" Someone calling me outside.

I got up from the bed and opened the door. It was Jacob and Johan. They went here just to see me and check if I'm fine?

"C-Come in," I said sluggishly.

"Are you feeling better?" Jacob asked as they entered the room. I sat on the bed and soaked the towel in the basin.

"Not yet," I replied.

I just looked at the two of them as they roam their gaze inside of our room.

"W-Why are you guys doing here?" I asked while I'm lying down.

"We just want to check on you," Jacob replied.

I closed my eyes because I was drowsy but I couldn't sleep continuously because from time to time someone came in and knocked on the door. I was not seriously ill and we were not in the hospital for them to visit me. They can enjoy various activities outside of this room. I can't understand their brain cells.

"I'm sorry. I can't entertain you guys right now." I said as I adjusted the towel on my forehead. I looked at them again and they were just standing beside my bed.

"It's okay," Johan said.

"You can leave now and enjoy your vacation. You don't need to worry about me." I said again.

"You look weak right now and we can't stand to see you in that kind of state," Jacob said. He contradicted what I have said.

"But I'm okay. I just need to rest and sleep continuously." I said. I want them to let me become a nurse of myself.

"Then sleep. Don't tell us that you're okay because you are not." Jacob said so I made a face at him.

"Let me take care of myself just for once," I said before I closed my eyes.

I heard the footsteps so I thought they would leave me. "If that's what you want then I guess we'll leave you now, Louise. Just take care of yourself better and we'll wait for you outside of this room." I heard Johan say. I'm familiar with their voices because I'm their fan.

"Jacob let's go. Let her rest." Johan called Jacob but I guess the latter is still standing beside my bed. Even if my eyes were closed, I feel someone is staring at me.

"I'll stay here. I'll take care of her." Jacob suddenly said. I suddenly opened my eyes and sat down in no time because of what I have heard. Is he crazy? An Idol will take care of his fan? What the heck! Why is he like this?

"Ne?!" Johan asked in surprise. He still standing at the door.

"Ha?! But I can take care of myself. You don't need to lock yourself in this room with me. Just enjoy your life with your friends." I frowned at him. I know Jacob is a man of his words. If he wants to be with me, he'll stay beside me no matter what pushed I would do with him.

I know I'm just a fan so I don't need somebody to look out of me, especially the RealSeven. But Jacob is different, he will do whatever he wants. He's not afraid of anyone.

"I said I'll take care of her." He said it again while looking at me.

"No. Even if I'm just a fan you would follow what I have said. Go, enjoy, and live your life." I glared at him. I want to kiss myself for being brave.

"No." He said while glaring also at me. "I'll take care of you. I'll lock myself with you. Just sleep and I'll watch over you." He's pulling a chair and sat there.

"Ehem." Johan coughed to catch our attention. "I'll leave you two now. Louise, you're losing so bear with him."

He left us already so I decided to lie down again. I can't sleep because Jacob is here and he's watching me. I'm like in a prison and I can't do anything to get rid out of this room.

Yesterday I fought with Karl and now Jacob is getting into my nerves. The silence is getting awkward so I thought the topic was with our same hobby.

"Oppa, what's your favorite book?" I broke the silence between us.

"Hmmm ... I don't have any favorite book," Jacob replied.

"But you have a lot of books? Did you have read it all?" I asked again.

"Yes, but I haven't read it all." He said.

"How much do you love reading?" I asked again. I remember his dream date was on the beach with his partner then they read books together. That's so sweet.

"I love to read because you can get knowledge and wisdom by reading a book." He replied.

"Yeah agree and sometimes you can share the wisdom that you've got from your favorite book," I said while looking at the ceiling. "You look like a smart person when you read."

"Yes. But sometimes I can't understand what I'm reading. It's like huh? Then I will read many times the lines that I couldn't understand." Jacob said, laughing out loud.

"Oh! You're right! I have experienced it too. Especially if there's a deep word that Merriam could only understand." I said while laughing.

Jacob and I just talked about the books and random topics. Until I fell asleep without realizing it.
