Mabilis kong piniga ang bimpo bago 'yon ipatong sa noo niya. I sighed and looked at her properly, bumaba naman na ang temperature niya pero need niya pa rin mapunasan. Pangalawang araw na ngayon pero hindi pa rin siya nagigising.

She's still not responsive, meaning it's painful. I want her to drink medicine but I can't give it to her because she's still unconscious. Kaya pupunasan ko na lang siya hanggang magka-conscious siya.

I looked at her features, and saw a mole under her eyes. It was so pretty. She's like angelic when she's sleeping. There are a lot of minimalist tattoos around her arms, and neck. It looks good on her, her face looks younger and yet she's older than me.

She's 27 years old.

And yet mukha pa rin siyang bata. Some of the tattoos consist of knives, guns, butterflies, some of the words like law, frère and words like run and free.

She looks so badass in these tattoos but isn't it bawal in her job? Does she keep these things hidden?

Or maybe because she's from another country, and maybe it is legal?

"Why are you so beautiful?" I blurted out and chuckled at myself. Inalis ko pa ang harang ng buhok niyang wolf cut.

Luxian doesn't know that he's falling even more...

I smiled to myself and took out the towel on her forehead before putting on a cool fever again and a blanket.

She looks so much better now and good thing she didn't know that someone is taking care of her. Maybe I should just tell her that Dionne made me go here.

Pumunta ako sa kusina at naghanap ng apron pero kahit apron ay wala siya. I sighed. I quickly washed my hands and took out some ingredients to make porridge.

Mabilis akong nagluto ng lugaw na kakasya para sa kanya, at nagluto ng fried chicken na maliliit ang hiwa para hindi siya mahirapan kainin. I made sure that there were no bones left and I made a sweet sauce but I doubt that she can taste it.

After cooking, I made sure to boil some water because I will make her some tea that she can drink.

I smiled to myself and my ears quickly perked up when I heard the door open.

"Fuck, Westly. Why the hell did she even take care of me?" narinig kong saad ni Nico habang naglalakad. I quickly smiled at myself because she was finally conscious.

When her step foot finally came here in the kitchen, I quickly smiled and I could see her being frozen in place upon seeing me.

"Why the fuck are you here?" she asked and raised her eyebrows to me. Oh, she's in a bad mood. She's grumpy.

"Because you are sick," sagot ko at nakita ko siyang natigilan. I just smiled at her. "Do you want some tea? It's much better if you drink some hot tea instead of a black coffee this time."

She groaned at me. "How did you know I'm sick?"

Why is she grumpy right now? Maybe because she's sick. I quickly went to check up on her. Ini-angat ko ang kamay ko at pinatong sa noo niya at mainit pa rin siya.

Natigilan naman siya nang maramdaman ang hawak ko. Mabilis niyang pinalo ang kamay kong nasa noo niya kaya natigilan ako. She's grumpy and brat again.

"I'm worried about you, you are not coming to my house or to my cafe. You never messaged me and I became so worried, then Dionne came up to me and told me to take care of you since you are sick," sagot ko kaya napabuntong hininga siya at parang gusto niyang manapak.

"Why did you even take care of me?"

"Because I want to take care of you," bulong ko at tiningnan siya sa mga mata niya na natigilan dahil sa mga sinabi ko.
