I did feel bad about punishing Park but I had absolutely no choice. If I didn't set it right with him, then everyone will do as they deem fit. I knew he understood where I was coming from though he must be pissed at me about using the "head hazer card".

I sighed as I went about my duties for the day. I had ordered Park to rest so he didn't turn up though he had come for classes. Lam told me that he had skipped lunch and been working in the library all the way. He had changed quite a fair bit from his early days during first year of university and was so much more dedicated to his studies.

Since it was already Friday, I wrapped up Sotus by 6pm so everyone could get an early start to their weekend. Lam and I went to the bikes and he was going off to meet Beam. I was about to go back to my dorm when I decided to text Park to find out where he was. He just sent me a picture of his assignments all over the library table with his grinning face in the background. Its already 6pm and I knew he has been there since 1pm. I asked him if he had dinner and he replied in the negative.

I sighed as I rode my bike over to the library. It closes at 7pm on Fridays so he was one of the last few left in the library. As I walked towards the library, he came out. He did look quite bad and tired.

"You ok? Why do you look so worn out?"

"It's been a long day. And I haven't eaten the whole day. Been very busy. And I think I may have a fever."

My eyes opened big when I heard that. I went up to him and felt his forehead. He was scorching hot. I sighed. I took his bag from him and told him I would send him home. He declined as his bike was here but I said nobody can possibly take it and he agreed. I stopped to buy dinner and sent him home. I hustled him to get a shower whilst I laid out dinner and went to get some meds from Pha from the neighboring dorm. I ran and got back on time just for him to come out of the showers.

He had some dinner though he struggled to finish it and took his meds. I went to clean up whilst he just stood at the entrance watching me. I turned to find him looking at me intently.

"You ok?"

"Yea I am... thanks Forth."

"Don't be silly. Why so formal? We are friends."

Park just nodded and smiled. He went to sit on the couch and I heard the TV. I smiled to myself as I finished washing up and keeping the dishes away. I always looked after these fellows in my group contrary to how I actually seemed. I went out and nearly laughed out loud when I saw Park sleeping away, with his mouth slightly open and the TV blaring away! I quickly took a photo to tease Park with it.

I went over and sat down and Park woke up, by the sudden movements. I laughed at him as I showed the photo. Park's face turned completely red as he tried to delete it. I chased him to go sleep whilst I took a smoke and watched some TV. He woke up around 1am, completely disoriented.

"You ok?"

"Yes. I'm just thirsty. How come you are here? Didn't go home?"

"I wanted to make sure you are ok. So I been just smoking and watching TV. Here you go. Drink the water and go back sleep ok?"

Park nodded at me. He drank the water and went off to sleep. I sat down and just kept watch lest he woke up wanting anything. I also took his temperature and monitored him.

Finally, Park woke up around 7am. I had just taken a shower and came out and found him standing in front of the couch looking lost.

'Parkkkk, you ok?"

He turned to look at me and grinned sheepishly.

"Na. I'm good. I just woke up so was a bit lost."

"How do you feel now?"

"Hmm better. Thank you na for looking after me."

"Na. All is good. I will get going ok?"

Park nodded at me as I took my dorm keys and left, ruffling Park's hair as I told him to take care. He nodded at me.

I went back and crashed in my bed though I kept my phone on loud mode in case Park needed me. I woke up around 2pm and found a couple of messages. I read through them and found out the boys were meeting for drinks though Park didn't reply. He had been awfully silent on the group chat. I opened my private chat and realized he had texted me on a food delivery for me. I opened my door and found the food package. I called him back as I went to my dining table.

"Have you eaten?"

"Yea I did."

"You better don't go out tonight. You are still getting well."

"I know."

"You better listen to me na."

"Or else what? You will complain to the Dean? Lam? Pha? Your parents? My parents? Huh?"

"Park! Don't make me come over there to knock sense into you na!!!"

Park chortled away endlessly on the phone. I growled at him and hung up, taking my lunch with me, intending to give him a piece of my mind. As I opened my door, there stood Park, looking a little too flushed for my liking but grinning away!
