Joshua is now awake but his eyes are still closed. He opened his eyes to see Grace beside him, she's still sleeping. He touched her forehead and this morning Grace's pain came out again.


"Grace. Wake up, you have a high fever, I told you not to drink last night.. " Joshua stood up from his bed and went down to the kitchen to get water and medicine.


"Sit down," Grace is half awake and her body is full of looking like insect bites. But that's her allergy. She can't drink much alcohol.


"My head hurts," She said while scratching her back. Joshua noticed that so he scratched her back. "What else hurts?"


"N-None," Joshua saw her eyes were already red.


'She's going to cry again'. He whispered to himself.


That's why he kept his cool and asked grace again.


"Tell me the truth, what else hurts you?" Grace is now sniffing as her tears drop. She immediately wiped it so that Joshua wouldn't see it.


But Joshua is such an observant boyfriend — that's why he noticed it.


"N-Nothing!"


"Oh really? Then, why are you crying?" Grace cried like a child in front of him. Joshua likes to annoy grace when she is sick because she cries a lot.


Joshua hugged her and tapped her back. But he is silently laughing. "Shhh, stop crying, I'm sorry,"


"Stop crying,"


"I-I have a headache," She said as she stroked her skin. "I know, I know," Her skin is full of red marks. That's why alcohol is really really bad for her health.


Joshua held her both arms and he looked at how red the rash on Grace's arm was. "This one looks severe, are you feeling itchy?" She nodded to him.


Joshua called his senior doctor who is mastered in dermatologist, he invited him to go in their house so he can check grace. "Get some rest, I'll cook downstairs,"


"I don't like being in here alone, I'll go with you," Joshua took the blanket behind her and wrapped it around Grace's body. "You look like a hot dog,"


Grace chuckled, and Joshua liked it. Even though Grace had the face of a ghost, he let it go because he didn't want her to get cold. Because their house is fully air-conditioned.


While Joshua was cooking and Grace was watching TV. She saw Vernon on TV "Oh? Mr chwe." Joshua turned to her.


"What about him?"


"He's on the TV I didn't know that his family is powerful, that's why the doctors don't want to touch him,"
