I went to sleep and was woken up after what seemed like 10 minutes of sleep and when I looked at the clock, it has actually been 10 minutes. Harlan stormed into my room with a sweat covered face and he was coughing like crazy. He started to whine about how his head hurted and how sore his neck was. I told him to go to his room while I went to go get some medicine but he told me that he wanted me to help him but not go into his room, so I told him to go onto the sofas and lie down. We went downstairs together and when we was about to slip on the steps I grabbed onto him but he was having a worse fever than about 3 hours ago.

I got him some Panadol and water and walked outside and gave it to him. He took it and passed out on the couch. I went to go make some chicken soup and gave him one of his favourite things to drink...beer. I woke him up to give him more medicine and the chicken soup. As soon as I gave him the beer his eyes lit up but soon got confused.

"Wait...Why are you giving me beer?"

"Because, beer is meant to help the sore throat" Then his eyes lit up again and chugged down the beer.

After he finished the beer he burped and fell asleep on my lap again. I looked at the clock and it has been 6 hours since he had stormed into my room. Since then, alot has changed. He has gotten more kind and nicer to me. Without thinking, I put my hand into his hair and started to stroke it. He stirred and I immediately took my hand away. He sat up and I was frozen because I though that he would get extremely angry at me and ruin everything...again. He looked at me again and grabbed my hand and put it in his hair and lied back down. I kept stroking his hair and he fell asleep again and so did I.
