Cheon Sejoo spoke, furrowing 4dd41b9dca his brow as he 10cd0743c0 looked at Sejin, whose 302dd3d5ee face had turned bright 27206fa09a red.74ac725ddd9a7aa8

Even as Sejoo’s cold hand brushed against his forehead, Sejin couldn’t calm his rapidly beating heart and could only leave his mouth open. Before he could even process the strange sensation coursing through him, Cheon Sejoo was gone from his sight. It was only after Cheon Sejoo started driving that Sejin came back to his senses, though he still felt dazed.d1871d5ecf0409dd

What had d43a1ccd9a been a ec1a1e453e mild fever b842f42f8e in the 53e4bd6cd7 morning had 800c645ebc now flared 767f06de2e into a a074c2e309 full-blown high 5e9579e4b9 fever due 0f656bf3ba to the 8a71038c5e aftermath of 1767a11c25 the violence cc0cc1695a and excitement 043e9df7b3 during the 99af22fdd6 day. Caught between the sudden 1ec705be8e heat that surged through 7269c4ca20 his body and the 12bebd6b67 chills that made him 63d84127a8 tremble, Sejin felt dizzy.b4e457e91f89d869

For about 1495d5c64b thirty minutes, 0766be9f16 he just b57f46fb97 sat there, 7a1390d19a leaning back 19c318d622 against the 56994a2a91 seat, focusing 8c05a09152 only on 18dbcccc02 breathing. Thanks to light traffic, 42f68c7e44 they arrived at the 8f361f803f house without any delays, 047ebe4416 and just like before, 343e43a8b3 Cheon Sejoo carried Sejin a962b07024 on his back.3e776f10c6aeafff

Exhausted from the short dac094c703 drive home, Sejin lay 7214d38e9a weakly against Sejoo’s back, 6b56a1e5d1 barely able to hold d073286a62 on as they made d751b7d4c3 their way upstairs to 0d2083bcc4 the apartment. By the 12c3f5d7d5 time Sejin 28b846a175 was laid 205f5776d4 down on 41cd9d55cb his bed, e88cabee32 he was e32aea0265 only half-conscious.386fa3348f66e32f

Sejin opened his blurry 97347ab1db eyes and looked at 782d63fac7 the man who was da9ee3101a frowning. The man’s eyes were 254b3af9dd somehow filled with concern. It was the 94539c68b1 kind of expression 5fc64c66e1 as if he be3960fbbf were wondering whether c38c6f7932 Sejin had been 43608d5dd9 hurt badly somewhere.112a1e889e8f93a2

That’s what it 5ae11651ff seemed like, no 4876f94b6a matter how he 314acd8b4a looked at it. The recurring fever starting 32a0427fb9 off mild and then 8a7d6ba1ca spiking suddenly was exactly f105d9063e the same as the f0b460fe13 symptoms of the growing 1e24fafafe pains Sejin remembered from d188dfa976 before. But Cheon Sejoo, c3c68490b7 upon hearing his 044cc10912 words, loosened his 0cd9e339b5 frown and laughed 1a923ea831 as if the f90dabd302 idea was ridiculous.

However, he d916f32ad0 didn’t have 7e84adfc28 the energy ff077a1928 to argue 3889b691d9 with Cheon e5c97b7d4e Sejoo.

While Sejin showered, Cheon fddce0fa04 Sejoo checked the temperature 5a9fbc5ea9 in Sejin’s room and 332c62c1cb found some fever-reducing medicine b73d7572fb lying around the house.

He knelt in front of Sejin, who was wobbling. Although he hesitated for a moment, it became clear that Kwon Sejin was far too young for him to feel anything sexual toward him. Relieved by the fact that Sejin’s slender and pretty body didn’t stir anything in him, Sejoo helped him put on his underwear. After dressing him in a t-shirt, Cheon Sejoo brought him back to the bed and sat him down.1becad5a22a4d912
