Jeongyeon was trying to sleep but had a severe headache when there was a late-night knock at the door. She groaned in pain and said, "come in."

Nayeon came in with a big smile, but it quickly faded when she saw Jeongyeon in pain. "What's wrong? Are you okay?" She sat next to Jeongyeon, showing concern, and felt her warm body.

"You're burning up," Nayeon said, checking her temperature by placing her hand on Jeongyeon's forehead. "My head is killing me," Jeongyeon replied. "Put your head here," Nayeon suggested, pointing to her lap.

Jeongyeon followed her advice, hugging her knees. Nayeon began massaging Jeongyeon's head and softly stroking her hair, bringing her some relief from the pain.

"Nayeon, I love you," Jeongyeon whispered before drifting off to sleep. Nayeon leaned in and tenderly kissed her forehead, whispering back,

"I love you more."

The next morning arrived with a clear sky, and Jeongyeon woke up before Nayeon, serenaded by the chirping of birds near her window. She found herself in Nayeon's embrace, inhaling her beloved's sweet scent.

Nestling into Nayeon's chest, Jeongyeon wrapped her arm around Nayeon's waist, whispering, "You're so beautiful," as she traced her finger gently along Nayeon's nose and playfully pecked the tip.

"I... love... you," Jeongyeon whispered again, writing the words on Nayeon's cheeks with her finger, prompting Nayeon to open her eyes and smile.

"Good morning, love,"

Nayeon greeted, embracing Jeongyeon tightly. Jeongyeon smiled back with equal affection. "Are you feeling better?" Nayeon softly inquired, planting a kiss on Jeongyeon's palm. Intertwining their fingers, Jeongyeon nodded and smiled at Nayeon, only to be startled by a knock at the door and the familiar voice they heard all too often,

"Ms. Jeongyeon, is Nayeon here?" It was her aunt, causing Nayeon to sigh in annoyance.

"yes, I'm coming," Nayeon replied, smiling at Jeongyeon. "Wait, okay, I'll get you something to eat, love," she said, causing Jeongyeon to blush. Nayeon couldn't resist teasing Jeongyeon's reaction, cutely aggressive, she kissed her passionately. "Idiot, go!" Jeongyeon scolded after playfully hitting her on the head.

"Why were you here?" Ms. Mun Young asked, crossing her arms. Nayeon tried to ignore her, visibly upset, but Ms. Mun Young grabbed her wrist, insisting, "I'm asking something!" "Her head was aching, and she couldn't sleep last night, so I was massaging her head. We just fell asleep together, that's it!"

Nayeon explained, glaring at her aunt before attempting to walk past her."Wait! It wasn't your job to take care of her," Ms. Mun Young stated, still standing with her arms crossed, tapping her foot on the floor.

Nayeon turned to face her, responding firmly, "Why not? She saved my life; why wouldn't I do it? I will, no one can stop me," she declared before walking downstairs.

In the kitchen, Nayeon swiftly prepared breakfast for Jeongyeon, making soup and porridge in no time. She then returned to Jeongyeon's room, where she found her drying her hair in front of the mirror, wearing a bathrobe. Nayeon placed the tray on the table and hugged Jeongyeon from behind.

"You shouldn't shower; you'll get sick," Nayeon advised, resting her chin on Jeongyeon's shoulder. "Oh, come on! I'm starting to smell bad," Jeongyeon replied, looking at Nayeon through the mirror. Nayeon smiled and playfully kissed Jeongyeon's neck, teasing,
