Baby Boy

{excuse my mistakes. I haven't revised this chapter yet}

*Jimin's POV*
I drove to the nearest store as the rain poured heavily on the windshield. Not many people drove out in heavy conditions like this, but I wouldn't just yet (y/n)'s fever rise uncontrollably. She started with a simply headache and then said she felt tired and her body ached. I asked to take her to the doctor, but she insisted she was okay, so now I'm out to buy her things that can maybe help her feel better.

I stepped out from my car into the heavy rain, opening my umbrella to remain dry. I rushed into the store, closing my umbrella and shivering at how the heater in the store warmed my cheeks. I went directly to seek what I came for, checking each medicine and squatting down to check the ones on the bottom shelf. Hmm... pain and fever reducer, but it doesn't have for sore throat and stuffy nose. And this one only is for sore throats and stuffy noses. Great... I sighed, holding a box in each hand. Should I get both? Or just one? Is it okay to take both together though? Maybe that'll poison her. I bit my lip, wondering which would do her better.

"What's are your symptoms?" I heard a voice behind my day. I turned my head, still squatting down as I saw a young girl standing behind me with a smile on her face. "Oh.." I hummed as I thought about the symptoms (y/n) was showing. I felt bad that she felt so sick. She even looked exhausted. It made me want to take her sickness from her, seeing her bundled up in her bedsheets, so helpless. "Headache, fever, sore throat, muscle pains, stuffy nose. I think that's most of it," I replied, glancing at her. "You looked like you had to think about it," she said with an amused laugh. "You came to shop for someone else?" She asked, bending down in search for a medicine in accordance to my description. "Yeah, it's not for me." I said, failing to mention that it was for my girlfriend who was waiting for me, sick at home. "Then you should get this one," she said, reaching over to a shelf completely out of where I was looking. "It can be combined with the pain and fever reducer since it's all natural to relief headaches, muscle pains and hopefully sore throat too," she said with a smile. "Wow thanks! I think I'll take both then. Should they be taken together at the same time?" I asked. She looked pretty knowledgeable on these types of things, surprising since she looked so young. She nodded, certain of her instruction. "Yeah! Like I said, it's natural, so it won't affect her like all these other chemically composed ones," she said, folding her arms as she looked at me assuringly.

"You sure know a lot about this," I said, then questioning why I just let out a conversation starter. She laughed and shrugged, "well I'm a chemistry and human biology major. I'm studying to get my pharmacy degree," she said with a proud smile. She didn't seem annoying or desperate for attention, sort of just, helping me out and it felt good to talk to people like this. "Oh nice! You look really young and you're already that knowledgeable?" I asked, genuinely curious as to how she's so familiarized. "I'm only 19, but I study hard," she said, reminding me of (y/n). "I'm Aster by the way," she said as she extended her hand out to me.

"Jimin," I said as I took her hand and shook it. In all honesty, she was beautiful, smart, collected, and mature. "Also, your patient might be having a heavy cold. Nothing to worry about, unless her fever goes over its proper levels. If you want, you can give me a call in case you need some professional help. I won't charge you," she said jokingly, taking out a piece of gum, eating it, and using the wrapper to write her number, handing it to me afterwards. "Thanks for your help Aster. I'll make sure to call you if I need your help. You were a lot of help already. I'll see you around then?" I said, sharing a smile as I placed the gum wrapper in my wallet in case of an emergency. "Of course. Great to meet you. I hope they get better soon, and drive safely out there," she said as she ran her hands in her raven hair. I nodded, thanking her as I quickly bowed and held on to the medicine she suggested. Who knew strangers were so nice?
