Love Syndrome (Day/Itt) - Book 1 (Authorized English Translation)

Chapter 3

"What's wrong? Why are you calling?" Itt answered the call curtly.

(You dare to talk to me like that, Itt?") Said Day on the other end of the line.

"Whether you're here or there, I'm going to talk to you like this, so what do you want? Didn't you call your brother just now?" he asked.

(How do you know I called my brother?) Day asked.

"Well, I'm having lunch with his group," said Itt.

(You're sitting eating with my brother. Does that mean your friend Gear is there!?) Day asked aloud.

"Why are you yelling?... well... then... I have something else to say, "said Itt.

(What?!), Day asked.

"Night and Ai 'Gear... are back together," said Itt, preparing to take the phone away from his ears because he thought that Day would be angry, but unexpectedly, he was calm.

"Hey, Day... hey... were you shocked to death?" Itt murmured.

(You're the one who will die... I'm not going to pick you up today. Go back to the condo by yourself.) Day said with a calm voice.

"If you aren't going to pick me up, then can I go home?" Itt asked immediately.

("Whenever you get back to the condo, shower and get dressed. When I finish my business, I'll pick you up.") Day didn't answer his question, but Itt knows that Day will not let him go back home.

"Then how can I enter your room? I don't have a keycard or anything." Itt said irritably.

(Go to the condominium office. I will ask for an extra card and inform the concierge in advance.). Day said again.

"Yes," he inevitably replied before ending the call.

"Why does my life have to be involved with someone like him?" Itt grumbled before sitting down to eat with his friends.

After finishing his meal, Itt walked with Four, but he dragged Itt to follow Gus. Four and Gus clashed a little, but Gus was dragged by his friends.

"Why do you always provoke him like that, Four?" Itt asked curiously.

"It's nothing. I'm just annoyed with him. A single mother fucker, nosy, good at acting, not afraid of anyone," Four said.

"But I think you tease him too much. Do you secretly like him?" Itt teased.

"You don't need to know about me, but you, you sick bastard, have fights with any woman? Damn, your neck is full of marks," Four changed the subject. Hearing what Four said, Itt immediately adjusted his shirt collar.

"Oh, you don't have to know. You still won't tell me your business," Itt said.

"So, are you going to the bathroom? Or not?" Itt asked for change the subject.

"No, better get back to our group," said Four before heading back to his group of friends with Itt following behind.

After class ended, Itt hurriedly ran away from his friends because he feared that they would find out that he had no one to pick him up as he had said.

At first, Day said he would come get him, but then he told Itt to go back to the condo alone. Itt doesn't like taking taxis, but he doesn't know which bus lines pass in front of Day's condo. So, he opted to take a bus instead of taxis. Itt decides to ask a young student standing at a bus stop.

"Nong, can I ask you something...? What bus goes through line XX?" asks Itt.

"Oh... line XX... You can take the subway, "said the woman. Itt remembered that there was another option besides the bus. The subway. He looks at the station. If it was a normal day, he would have walked, but now Itt was in so much pain from his bottom that he couldn't walk.
