After few minutes of waiting, I went back to the guest room to see Kelly. She was lying on the bed in a curl up position and I noticed that she was calmly shaking. I ran closer to her and felt her forehead. She was hot. "Kelly, are you alright?! You look so pale. Wait for me, I'll be back!" I covered her body with a thick floppy blanket and then quickly ran off to kitchen to grab a hot soup for her so she can take medicines.
Her fever was getting worse. It was horrible, I don't know what to do. (O..O")
"Kelly... come on, let me get you up." I hold on to her back and help her sit. "You're sick. You have to take this soup." I gently blew the hot soup on a tablespoon and feed her. "How does it taste?"
She forced to smile while her eyes were tender and seemed so weak. "It's good. Thank you, Reid."
"You're my resposibility from now on, okay? Come on you need to finish your food, let me feed you. So you can take this medicine. My doctor suggests me to take this when I'm sick."
"Okay. I'll do it. Achoo! Oh, sorry for my sneeze." she laughed.
"Hmm, your cold is getting worse but you can still laugh that way? Stop it. You have to get well."
"Uhhh... don't worry 'bout me. I'll be better. Of course I got a caring and sweet nurse like you so I'll surely get well!"
"Alright. Alright. Come on, it's the last one." After she finished her soup, I let her take the medicine.

"Okay, just have a rest. I won't leave you." I sat on the right edge of the bed while holding her left hand. Then I put a cold wet towel on her forehead to reduce her fever. She closed her eyes and I let her sleep.
Time flies so fast. I didn't even notice that I fell asleep too. I woke up around 7pm, I checked my phone and received missed calls from Ashley. I was curious so I return the call on her.
"Hey, I'm sorry. I was asleep, I haven't noticed your call."
Ashley on the phone: "I was worried. Tracy was here a while ago. I heard her conversation with my sister. Is it true that she went over your house? Did she hurt you? Tell me, what happened?"
"I'm fine. Don't worry, okay? She didn't do anything wrong with me."
"Are you sure? How about Kelly? Is she there?"
"Yea. She's in trouble with sickness right now. I have to take good care of her."
"I've told you before to stay away from her, are you really okay?"
"Ash, don't worry about me. I can make it on my own. Perhaps, there would be no problem anymore. Calm down, okay? Hmm, I'll see you tomorrow. I'll hung this up now."
"Okay. Bye, take care of yourself. I love you Reid, bye."
"Alright. I love you, too Ash. G'bye."
