Hoseok pinched the bridge of his nose with a slight frown. Easing the pain that had been taunting his head only to add another sickness in him, now he wanted to throw up. Not in the taxi, not here. He chanted in his head weakly.
"Young man are you alright?" the taxi showed his concern upon seeing Hoseok's pale face. Not to mention, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Hoseok nodded not to forget to smile, something that he was accustomed to do every time he conversed with someone. They arrived at their destination not long after and Hoseok paid the fees before headed out quickly. His head and stomach could not take it anymore, he needed to empty it.
He took the chance to run to the nearest bush just beside the building, as he grew very sick every time he delayed the process. His stomach heaved with a profound feeling of nausea and without warning, he finally vomited. Crouching down, he forced the liquid out of his throat.
Hoseok had never been this sick. He felt hot and cold.
Palming the cold wall behind him, he stabilized himself. Hoseok finally stood up on his feet with a deep sigh. His body should not betray him now. Tomorrow was supposed to be the first day of filming and it could not be delay just because of him.
I just need a rest, it will get better tomorrow. He made a mental note to himself.
He took a moment to regain his breath before entering the building. A pang of dizziness hit him hard causing Hoseok to curse under his breath with a heavy wheeze. As soon as he reached their floor, he went out almost immediately bumping into a trash can in front of him.
"Shit.." he grumbled.
The image in front of him was a little too blurry making it hard for him to find the door to their place. Grunting in pain, he forced himself until he saw something familiar which him assumed to be a key to their place. A sigh of relief escaped from his cold lips as he pressed his forehead against the door, punching the password shakily.
Seul was alerted by the clicking sound, "Shoot. who is back at this hour? Jin?" she sighed in disbelief. Seul had given up playing hide and seek with Babytan since everyone knew her existence, she might as well just show her face without worrying of those things anymore.
Placing down the delicate vase neatly on the table, she made her way to the nearest wall of the entrance just to have a little look. If it is Jin then it should be alright, if it is Min Yoongi then she is ready to flee before another fight erupt between them.
It will not be their manager, right? That will be so screwed up.
She blinked curiously at the wobbly figure few metres away from her, looking a little too odd in her eyes. His rapid breathing was seriously disturbing and not to mention the man was ringing wet with sweat. Hoseok was struggling to kick his own shoes and once in awhile he would lean against the door regaining his consciousness. He really did not want to pass out right there.
Seul came out from her hiding after making sure the person was the sunshine Hoseok instead of their manager. She took a pace towards weak Hoseok "Hey are you alright?" she inquired worriedly.
"Who is there...Are you Seul..." he mumbled incoherently trying to stand up on his feet, but it really failed him. Seul had managed to catch him before he had tumbled to the ground. It was not easy for Seul's petite body to manage his weight at first, yet she pulled through it afraid Hoseok might get hurt in process.
"Your body is burning!" she exclaimed with a soft gasp. Hoseok was mumbling some nonsense in her shoulder something that could not be translated "We need to get you to bed" Seul wrapped one of his arm around Hoseok's waist, switching his position to comfortable one before making their way to his room.
The journey to his room felt closer yet so far. She took time to drag Hoseok who was not even fully conscious to begin with. Seul put him to bed with a soft pant due to the excessive energy that she exerts to bring the sick guy safely to the room. She thought of waking him up to get his shirt change since it was drenched with sweat, but it took her a moment to think whether she could just change it without telling him.
Seul took a seat beside weak Hoseok, his skin looked extremely dull and pale. After Hoseok passed out, she removed his shirt with one eyes opened. The image of shirtless Hoseok was making her shy when she was not supposed to feel this right now. Seul cleaned him up as best as she could with a warm and wet cloth. He was burning up with fever and even shivering in his sleep.
She then rummaged through his closet choosing the warmest cloth that he had and quickly dressed him back before he caught a cold. Placing the back of her hand on his forehead, she monitored his body temperature with a heavy sigh.
"Who should I call? Jin?" she pressed her lips together. She knew it would be a bad idea to leave Hoseok alone in that condition, someone needed to be here and watch after him. As for her, she would gladly to do the task, but she had a work to tend in an hour. Her only choice was to call one of the members which happened to be Kim Seokjin, so they were aware of Hoseok's situation.
Glancing at Hoseok's figure laying helplessly on the bed, she decided to give Jin a call. She did not want to talk to be associated with any of Bangtan's members at first, since it really came to this what else she could do. Someone's life is at stake.
A soft voice rang in her ears bringing her out from her dreamy state "Seul? Why are you calling me?" Jin said cheerfully.
"Ah..Jin-ssi"
"Oppa"
"Is this even a time to argue?"
"Jin oppa" his voice was stern.
"Okay..Jin oppa, or whatever. One of your members is down with fever" she spat in annoyance after Jin forced her into calling him oppa.
Jin stood up almost immediately and started panicking "Who? Hobi?" Seul cringed at the end of the line upon hearing his high pitch voice.
She tilted her head in confusions, the name did not ring any bell or was it a nickname among the boys "Hobi who?"
"I mean Jhope.. Jung Hoseok"
"Ah..Hoseok-ssi..Yes, it is him. He came back just now looking super ill and he almost passed out at the front door. Thank god, I was still here" she muttered with a hint of concern and sympathy. There was a commotion behind Jin, it must be the boys since they sounded desperate questioning Jin.
Jin scowled lowly asking them to tone down so he could continue his conversation with Seul at ease "How is Hobi? I will go back in few minutes; can you stay with him until then?" he pleaded in hope Seul would give in to his request.
"I am planning to do that. That is why I am calling you. I have to leave in an hour, can you make it by then?"
"Yes, I can make it. I will be there in 15 minutes"
"Alright then, get here safely" she quickly hung up before Jin could say anything more to her previous response. Why on earth would she say such thing as if Jin is her boyfriend? Oh god, Seul what a mess.
Jin on the other hand was dumbfounded by her response. It really made him turned giddy inside but scratch that, he still had something important to be worried off, like Jung Hoseok's health. The room turned dead silent as everyone attention was on Jin. He gave them a weird look, "Hyung, what happen to Hoseok hyung?" the maknae chewed his lower lips nervously.
"Seul said Hobi passed out. He is down with fever" Jin grabbed his thing on the couch getting ready to head out.
"Seul? The caretaker lady? Is she there now?" Jimin flinched.
Jin nodded "Yes, and I need to get to Hobi since she has work in one hour. So, tell manager hyung i will look after Hoseok and let him know whether he needs to meet doctor or not" the maknae line nodded in unison with a deep sigh.
"Take care hyung, let us know if his condition is worsening" said Taehyung, watching the older guy disappeared from their vicinity. Jin shook his head in disbelief, scolding Hoseok in his head. He really could not believe that guy. The result of overworking last night caused him to be this way.
