"You're hot," Jimin says. Everything is turning upside down in my vision while I'm standing.

I covered my mouth before running into my bathroom, wobbly. I can hear footsteps following me but before I can even close the door, Jimin is already standing at the doorway.

As soon as I reached the toilet I started throwing up empty vomit.

I can suddenly feel a hand tapping my back while I concentrate on puking.

My head is still pounding and my world is still spinning. I grab Jimin for support and he doesn't bother. He even helped me stand up to wash my mouth on the sink and walk to my bed. 

When my head finally lands on a pillow, everything went back to normal and I took a deep breath.

Unlike yesterday, Jimin's hair is styled down, his forehead is not visible, but as usual, he still looks handsome.

Before I can even speak a word, Jimin walks to the balcony and returned with a paper bag.

"What's that?" I ask. He placed the paper bag on my side table and started getting out stuff from it.

Gatorade, one carton of milk, Rich Tea, Digestive Biscuits, and chocolate truffles.

My mouth waters, "Are those for me?" I ask.

"Only if you drink this." He hands out a color red and black pouch.

"What's that?"

"Red ginseng extract. It'll help you feel better." I curl my nose at the thought of it. I hated vitamins, they make my stomach ache.

"I'm fine." I refuse, but he shoves a whole box of it on my face. "Jimin stop it!" I hiss and grab the box from his hand.

"Just try it." He says and I sigh. He hands me the one in his hand and I took it.

I tear the top part and I looked at him, "Drink it in one go." He instructs and I just nodded before squeezing the pouch from the bottom to the top until all of the extracts reach my mouth.

I stick my tongue out as I finished drinking the extract. "This is really tasty." I sarcastically remarked and I hear him laugh shortly.

I like the sound of his laugh, he just doesn't know that. But I hope I can hear more of it.

"Continue drinking this once a day until that box is empty." He points at the right side of my bed where I tossed the red ginseng extract box.

Yesterday was disastrous for both of us, we both told things to each other that are unacceptable and inconsiderate.

It makes me confused that he's here at night while I'm sick, invading my room without my parents knowing, he's telling me to take vitamins and take care of myself.

Those things are clearly the opposite of what he said yesterday and the other night.

"Why are you here?" I ask him. I know we're still not through about yesterday, but I didn't expect him to come here.

"Isn't it obvious? I'm visiting." He rolls his eyes at me as he scoffs. He took the same chair that Yoongi used to sit next to me.

He stretches his left arm sideways and grabbed the chocolate truffles on the bedside table near him. "Here." He casts the food on me and I successfully caught it.

"Thanks." He gives me a curt nod before I open the pack of truffles and bite on it. I offered Jimin some but he refuses to have one.

I continued devouring the truffles while I try to ignore how awkward the situation is.
