Inside Hyoseop's tent.
"Hyoseop ah... sorry for late"
"Ji..woo?"
"Yes, it's me"
"I feel dizzy..."
"Here, eat these medicines" he sits up and follows Jiwoo's orders.
"Ugh..." groans.
"You can lay down now. I'll tell Joohyuk and Sungjae to wipe your body later. I'm gonna cook some congee for you"
"Jiwoo..." he grabs her wrist.
"Hmm? Do you need anything?"
"Do you...hate me?"
"I will never hate you, Ahn Hyoseop"
"Since that day... you've been... avoiding me. I'm sorry...."
"There there. I hate one thing about you. You always apologize when it's not even your fault" he smiles. Jiwoo smiles widely as she can see his sweet smile.
"Sorry.... it's like my habit"
"Enough.. I'm gonna make some congee for you"
"Thank you"
The next morning.
Jiwoo awakes by the sunlight pokes her eyes. she stretches her arms. She yawns and hugs herself as the air is kinda chilly in the morning. She wears a hoodie over her tee. She walks straight to Hyoseop's tent. She opens up the zip a little bit and peeks from outside. Joohyuk and Sungjae sounds asleep. Hyoseop's face looks fine, better than yesterday. Suddenly, Jiwoo coughs and Joohyuk awake by that. She mouths to him "I'm sorry" and Joohyuk mouths to her "It's fine".
Jiwoo points at Hyoseop as she curious how he's doing, is his body burning again. Joohyuk checks his temperature. Joohyuk does thumbs up as to tell that he's doing good, no more fever. Jiwoo thanks him and zip close the tent. She walks to the small fire and warm herself up. Their teachers and other students awake earlier to prepare breakfast. Jiwoo heats up the leftover congee last night.
"Morning" Sungkyung walks towards Jiwoo while hugging her body.
"Morning too"
"Is that for me?" she sits beside Jiwoo.
"It's for a patient, miss"
"Oh, I see. I see"
Almost ten in the morning.
"BREAKFAST KIDS" The teaches uses megaphone.
"Sungkyung-ah, can you go wake Minha and Momo up?"
"Yeah, sure" Sungkyung leaves.
"Come on!" Joohyuk pushes Sungjae who still in his blanket.
"Morning to you two" Jiwoo smiles.
"Morning" Joohyuk greets her while stretching.
"Breakfast's ready at there"
"Come on come on" Joohyuk pulls his friend's hand who still sleepy. Jiwoo smiles as she finds them so cute. As she done stirs the congee, she put them in a bowl and goes straight to Hyoseop's tent.
"Hey" Hyoseop smiles.
"Hii" Jiwoo puts the bowl down.
"Thanks"
