"Yashiro has a fever?!"
"senpai is sick?!"
"It appears so," the teacher simply sighs.
Nene lets out a weak cough and then sniffles. As she grips the sheets.
......
At the start of the day, after Hanako and Kou waited for her patiently to continue their cleaning progress. After an hour or so, she still hasn't shown up so they decide to look for her.
Hanako floats into the infirmary with a smile on his face, "good morning my lovely assistant time to get up-"
to their surprise, Nene lying face-first on the floor. Her appearance phased in and out.
"ako kun..." she mumbles.
"Yashiro?!"
The boys lift her up, laying her back down on the bed.
Unfortunately, she was dead weight was hard to peel off the floor.
"senpai is- heavier to hold than I remember. ," Kou comments.
Hanako laughs at the other boy's struggle before stopping midway, giving him a stare, " I don't recall you holding Yashiro that. Since when did that happen''
Kou suddenly felt intimidated, "uh-"
"no...not heavy.." Nene frowns with closed eyes. The two boys look towards her.
"my ankles are the skinniest thing in the world" she mumbles as she sinks downward slowly phasing through the mattress.
" Ah, Yashiro!" Hanako grabs her by the arms, pulling her up out of the object.
"Why did Senpai almost sink into the mattress? What do we do!?"
Go get Tsuchigomori!"
................
"So she's ok?..." Kou asks, unsure looking at the girl who looks uncomfortable as she curls up.
"For the most part, yes though I can imagine it's anything but a pleasant experience for her," the teacher answers as he takes out a thermometer from her head.
"How bad is it?" Kou questions.
the teacher steps out of the way.
Kou walks over reaching a hand to her forehead. He doubled back at the ice cold feeling. It was so cold it burnt him. He knew she felt a bit chillier than usual but never expected it to be thay cold.
He noticed her form being pretty see through still. the girl groans mumbling something Hanako pats her on the head.
" what about her phasing through the bed again" Kou frowns.
"No need to worry Minamoto san I managed to stablize her." he says as he digs in his pocket.
"How did you do it?"
"i have my ways..."
Hanako reaches out towards her but takes his hand back.
"Is it contagious?" he questions
"No I don't think so" Tsuchigamori says as he ties a face mask on.
"But you are putting that on?!" Kou's brows furrow
"Its just precaution. Unlike you brats, I'm unable to have a book that shows past prsent and future."
"You are just making excuses because how weak you are now emo spider" the fox sneers.
"you see it as excuses I see it as a precaution. unlike you, I can't afford to take chances! not when I'm a teacher who has to deal with many students, including the young Minamoto here. We don't get many days off, ecocoptus ." he growls back holding up the fox up before placing her on the stand next to the bed.
