Blanks: Win and Team

Unlabeled

Team

I felt the car stop. I thought we were still caught in the traffic but I heared the engine died down.

"Nong..", P'Win called out to me.

I just grunted in response and felt him unbuckle my seatbelt.

"We're home."

I opened my eyes and started to stretch. I suddenly felt sore all over. I must be coming down with something.

I started to get out and closed the car door. P'Win followed and locked the car.

He gave me the car keys and we went inside the dormitory.

We kept quite as we entered the elevator. I pressed the number nine and just ignored him.

As the elevator hit my floor, I went out and didn't say anything to him.

I head straight to my room, unlocked the door and went it.

"Aren't you going to invite me in?"

I was startled. I didn't know he followed me.

"Hia.. stop bothering me.", I begged him.

He just stared at me outside my door.

"Go away.", I told him and closed the door in his face.

I was too tired to deal with him. I threw my things on the floor and flopped on my bed.

I heared my phone ringing. I tried to remember where I placed it and found it in my pocket.

"Wadee..", I answered it without opening my eyes.

It was Manaow asking why I wasn't in school.

"I'm sick. I need to rest. Call you when I'm better.", I just told her straight.

She asked if I needed anything and if they can visit later.

"No need. I'm good. I'll sleep now.", I answered and dropped the call.

I went back to sleep like nothing happened.

I heared a loud banging somewhere. I felt hungry. The banging continued and someone was calling me.

I stood up lazily and opened the door. The light outside hurts my eyes and I squinted.

"Why are you not answering my call?!", P'Win sounded angry.

"I'm sleeping."

"Are you sick? Dean said he heared Manaow and asked me to check on you.", he continued and started touching my neck and forehead.

I just brushed his hands and went back inside to lie in my bed.

"Do you hurt anywhere?", he went on and started touching me all over.

"Stop that..", I floundered at him.

"Did you take any painkillers?"

"No.. I'm hungry..", I told him.

I heared him sigh, "I'll be back."

I heared the curtains open and the light burned my lids again. I turned my head away.

"Nong.. Wake up. I brought food.", P'Win kept on tapping my leg.

I grunted and lazily went to the table and sat down. I slightly flinched. My muscles were aching.

"Where's the food..", I asked while my eyes was half closed.

I smelled something delicious placed in front of me.

"You baby.. say ah!", P'Win ordered.

I just opened my mouth and took whatever he's feeding me. It was congee and I savored every spoonful.

"Drink some water.", he said while holding a glass to my mouth.

I drank it all and started to go back to bed with my eyes still half closed.

"Drink some medicine first before you lie down.", he stopped me and guided me again.

After I drank the medicine, he laid me down on my bed.

"Who would take care of you if I wasn't here?", he asked me.

"No one.", I answered him and he sighed again.

I could hear him moving around and didn't try to check what he was up to until he was undressing me.

"Oi, Hia!", I tried to stop him.

"I'm going to give you a sponge bath!", he scolded me.

I let him go on and felt him wiping me clean from head to toe.

"You're getting hard, Nong", he informed me of the bulk in my boxers.

"Don't do anything. I'm tired.", I warned him and I turned to lay on my chest.

He continued wiping my neck and down to my feet again.

There were some rustling and shuffling sounds. I wondered what he was doing.

I felt his weight on my bed. There was a click and a pop. I felt him rubbing my back with something wet and cold.

"Hia!", I was protesting again on whatever he was trying to do.

"I'm just giving you a massage to relax your strained muscles!", he sound irritated.

I just squirmed and didn't say anything until I fell asleep again.

"He's just experiencing muscle fatigue.", I informed Dean on the line.

"He doesn't have a fever.", I continued to answer him.

"I didn't do anything to him!", I denied and looked inside if I woke Team up.

"He's sleeping.", I answered softly this time.

"Give him three days or a week to recover.", I suggested.

"I'll take a week off."

"I'll work things out for him."

"I already called a doctor for a house visit. They'll come tomorrow."

I dropped the call after and went inside. He was sleeping soundly.

I sat down beside him and played with his hair.

He suddenly moved, "Hia.."

I smiled at him, "I'm here, Nong."

He turned and hugged my waist. I felt fuzzy inside.

"Food.."

I laughed and sighed at his cuteness.

Yes, Nong.

"I'm feeling better now.", I told P'Win as we ate.

We were eating some hot pot that he ordered from a nearby shop.

The doctor just checked me out and said If I don't feel sore, I could go back to class by Wednesday. It was already Tuesday.

P'Win just looked at me and continued eating.

"Pharm asked me to pick him up on Wednesday. His car is still under repair.", I informed him.

He picked up his phone and typed something with intensity.

You pick your boyfriend up because his friend is disabled.

He stashed it away after.

"No.", P'Win answered flatly.

"But I have to attend classes!"

He placed his spoon down and started enumerating his fingers.

"Sleep. Eat. Rest. You have one week."

"Hia..", I tried to reason out.

"Eat!"
