Anna stares at Shane coughing.
Anna tries to touch his forehead.

Shane backs away.
" Don't."

" Mr. Shane, are you sick ?"
Shane remains silent.

Suddenly, someone appears behind the door.
It's the dealer.

" We gave you time to rest. Two people aren't permitted to be in a room." said Chelsy.
" But.. It seems like Mr. Shane is sick."

" There is still a possibility of stealing pens. Two people are not permitted together. Each person can only have their possessions in their room."
Anna frowns then suddenly she smiles.

" Ah ! Then what if I am Mr. Shane's possession ? I can stay here if it's like that, right ?"
Shane coughs.

Shane stares at Anna," I'm fine."
Chelsy just smiles then closes the door.

" Mr. Shane ! Please take care of your health too !"

***

Shane is sleeping soundly.
Anna looks around.

Anna opens his book that he read when Anna came in a moment ago.
" Eh ?"

Anna flips the book again and again.
" It's blank."
