***************************************************************************************************************************
Kim Jiwoong, the eldest member of Zerobaseone, woke up feeling unwell. His head was pounding, and he felt a wave of dizziness as he sat up. However, he remembered he had to attend a variety show with Hao and decided not to tell anyone about his condition. After taking a shower, he came downstairs and saw Hao making breakfast for them, as they had to leave early.

Hao glanced at Jiwoong, noticing the paleness of his face. "Hyung, are you feeling okay?" He asked, concern evident in his voice. Jiwoong forced a smile. "I'm fine, Hao. Just a little tired."

Hao nodded, though he felt unsure about the answer. He decided to keep an eye on Jiwoong. They ate their breakfast in peace and silence, as the other members were still asleep. After finishing breakfast, their manager arrived to pick them up. Before leaving, Hao wrote a note, "Food is in the fridge.Just reheat it." and placed it where the others would see.

They soon reached the shooting location. During the shoot, Jiwoong tried his best to mask his illness, but Hao kept glancing at him, concerned. After forty minutes, the shoot was over, and they headed back to the car.

In the car, Hao asked again, "Hyung, are you sure you're okay? You don't look well."Jiwoong sighed "I just have a little headache." Hao placed the back of his hand on Jiwoong's forehead. "Hyung, you have a fever." He said, worry, creasing his brow to which Jiwoong didn't respond. He leaned back and closed his eyes. The manager glanced at them through the rearview mirror. "How's Jiwoong's temperature, Hao?"

Hao replied, "His skin definitely feels hot." The manager instructed, "Hao, stay with Jiwoong. Both of you can catch up with practice tomorrow." He then drove them back to the dorm and helped Hao carry Jiwoong inside.

In the practice room

Upon arriving at the company, Taerae asked the manager, "Where are Hao and Jiwoong hyung?" The manager explains,"Jiwoong has a fever, and Hao stayed with him. Continue practicing; they'll catch up later."

The members, feeling worried about their eldest hyung, continued their practice.

MEANWHILE AT DORM

Hao filled a basin with cold water, prepared a towel, and went to Jiwoong's room. He took a seat beside Jiwoong and placed the wet towel on his forehead. Then, he headed to the kitchen to make porridge and grabbed some fever reducers with a glass of water.

Returning to Jiwoong's room, Hao set the food tray on the table beside the bed and gently woke Jiwoong. "Hyung, you need to eat and take some medicine." He said softly.

Jiwoong was feeling weak. He allowed Hao to help him sit up. Hao fed him the porridge and gave him the fever reducers. Jiwoong fell asleep almost immediately after taking the medicine. Hao, sitting beside him, eventually leaned back and fell asleep as well.

When Hao woke up, it was almost evening. He checked Jiwoong's temperature and was relieved to find it had gone down a bit.

Hao went downstairs and saw the other members sitting on the couch. "When did you guys get home?" He asks. Ricky replied, "Just a few minutes ago." Hanbin asked, "How's Jiwoong hyung feeling now?" Hao responded, "His temperature went down but not fully. I'll cook dinner."

The members nodded and went to freshen up while Hao prepared dinner. A few moments later, they all sat at the dining table. Hao made a special soup for Jiwoong and told the others to start eating while he took it to Jiwoong's room.

When Hao entered the room, Jiwoong was already awake. "Hyung, I brought you some soup." Hao said, handing him the bowl. Jiwoong drank the soup gratefully. "Thank you, Hao, for taking care of me."

Hao smiled, "No need to thank me, hyung. Just get better."

After finishing the soup, Jiwoong was tucked back into bed by Hao. Hao then joined the other members for dinner. They chatted and laughed, easing the tension from earlier. After dinner, everyone went to their respective rooms, and Hao took one last look at Jiwoong before heading to his own room.

NEXT MORNING

Jiwoong came downstairs, feeling much better. Gyuvin greeted him, "Hyung, how are you feeling now?"

Jiwoong smiled, "I'm feeling better, thanks."

They all sat down for breakfast, laughter spreading across the table. After finishing their meal, they proceeded with their schedule, relieved and happy that their eldest member was on the mend.
