One chilly morning, Gojo woke up feeling unusually fatigued and feverish. He tried to brush it off, but as the day progressed, his condition worsened. By the time Amayra visited him after her office work, it was evident that he was quite sick.

Amayra : *worriedly* Gojo, you look awful! You should have called me earlier.

Gojo : *weakly smiling* I didn't want to worry you. It's just a little cold.

Amayra immediately took charge, her concern for Gojo overriding everything else. She gently guided him to lie down on the couch and took his temperature.

Amayra : *frowning* You have a high fever. You need to rest. I'll make you some soup and get some medicine.

Gojo : *gratefully* You're an angel, Amayra. Thank you.

Amayra fetched a blanket to keep him warm, made a bowl of warm chicken soup, and ensured he had enough water to stay hydrated. Her nurturing side came out fully as she tended to him with unwavering dedication.

Amayra : *softly* Here, drink this soup. It'll help you feel better.

Gojo : *taking the bowl* Thank you, Amayra. You didn't have to do all this.

Amayra : *smiling* Of course, I did. You always take care of me. Now it's my turn.

After making sure Gojo had eaten and taken his medicine, Amayra sat beside him, gently running her fingers through his hair. She hummed softly, trying to soothe him to sleep.

Amayra : *whispering* Just rest now, Gojo. I'll be right here if you need anything.

Gojo looked up at her with gratitude, his heart swelling with love for the woman who cared for him so deeply.

Gojo : *hoarsely* I love you, Amayra. You're the best thing that's ever happened to me.

Amayra : *leaning down to kiss his forehead* I love you too, Gojo. Now sleep, and get better soon.

Over the next few days, Amayra continued to care for Gojo, ensuring he had everything he needed to recover. Her constant presence and tender care helped him regain his strength. As he started feeling better, Gojo couldn't help but feel an even deeper appreciation for Amayra.

Gojo : *smiling as he regained his strength* I don't know what I would have done without you, Amayra.

Amayra : *teasingly* You'd probably still be lying on that couch, refusing to admit you're sick.

Gojo : *laughing* You're probably right. But seriously, thank you for everything.

Amayra : *softly* Anytime, Gojo. We're in this together, remember?

Gojo's illness and Amayra's unwavering care only served to strengthen their bond. They realized that no matter what challenges came their way, they would always have each other to lean on.
