I Dumped Her Not Knowing That She Was My Favorite

047. It was good to be sick.

“Ech!”

After the short broadcast, I wiped my runny nose and sat down on the bed.

“Why do you catch a cold at a time like this?”

Knowing that I was the cause, I had no place to blame others.

Don’t mess around yesterday, just wear something warm and go.

I somehow wore a skirt to look pretty, but that seemed to be the root of the problem.

Ugh… but there are still exams left and the day after tomorrow is my birthday.

It was full of important events, but I thought I was too complacent.

Even though they sent the recording of their debut song, they do not know when they will eat it.

If I’m really unlucky, I didn’t know that the worst situation would come where the schedule could be delayed because of me.

I wanted to take care of my cold body even now, so I quickly put on the blanket and held my phone with only my head exposed.

He seemed to have a sore throat and a slight fever, but he could message.

[brother.]

Are you busy during the exam period?

The yellow bar disappears without even having time to think whether it was sent for nothing.

[yes?]

[Were you studying?]

It seemed that Taemin oppa was also looking at his phone.

okay. Now you can ask about this.

We held hands and watched movies together.

[ah. I was taking a break.]

I was thinking about what to send so that the conversation would continue, but rather, it was my older brother who asked the question first.

[I was coughing during the day. Are you okay?]

…I’m proud.

Clearly, until yesterday, there was a bit of resentment about the stray code, but my brother’s friendly text put a hearty smile on my lips.

[I think I have a little fever, but won’t it be okay?]

[Did you take the medicine?]

[no. I’ve been looking for it, but it’s not there.]

I must have bought something before the fever reducer.

I searched all over the cupboard, but I couldn’t find him.

[okay? i’m at home Shall I bring it?]

oh Sweet.

too sweet

Sum is such a sweet thing.

I didn’t even bring the sugar to my mouth, but it seemed to taste sweet in my mouth.

I gripped my phone tightly and chewed my lips.

What would be a good answer?

just say it’s okay?

Or did you call your brother here just because he asked for one?

In fact, one-dimensional desire pointed in exactly one direction, but other external factors were a problem.

Once you say you’re coming, you have to put the microphone and other equipment that were put up for broadcasting a while ago somewhere.

And, of course, I didn’t think we would talk or talk for that long, but it bothered me that he might infect me.

As a result of thinking over and over again, I was going to reply just to receive your heart.

“…yes?”

I didn’t look at the screen because I was worried alone, so I couldn’t check my brother’s message that was one more line away.

[Open the door. I’ll be there soon.]

Visaaa!

Forgetting the pain, I jumped out of bed and quickly jumped out in front of the computer desk.

Since the building is right next to it, it should take less than 5 minutes to get there.

Perhaps if this were a scene from a cartoon, the sound effect would have sounded like “Udang-tang-tang” in my room.

I managed to hide the broadcasting equipment in a hurry, and I checked the time by touching my phone.

My brother’s last message was 3 minutes ago.

Now it was my turn to check my form.

I’m wearing pajamas, but…

oh Does it matter if I show you this?

The lilac pajamas didn’t look particularly sensational.

I’m wearing a headband…

Normally, I had to tidy up my bangs before going out, so I hadn’t worn them, but now I can’t afford to do that at all.

The face is raw too.

Still, with the mindset of keeping the minimum manners, I quickly applied my lips.

It was because if I didn’t do this, my face would look so lifeless.

[smart tock]

A terrifying knocking sound as the tint lid closes.

Putting on slippers, I rushed out toward the front door.

“hello.”

“hi.”

A black envelope in her brother’s hand.

I thought I would only get a pill or two, but my brother seemed to have brought something extra.

“What is it all about?”

As I glanced at the envelope, my brother strode into the front door.

I expected to be able to come in, but I was a little surprised to come in like this.

“I bought antipyretics and a hot drink from the convenience store. oh I brought a thermometer just in case.”

It’s not my birthday yet.

The more I looked at each item that contained some sincerity, the more my heart started pounding.

“temperature. Have you checked?”

“no?”

There is no way there will be a thermometer in a house without antipyretics.

Come to think of it, it seemed more surprising that it was in my brother’s house.

Is there usually a thermometer in a house where a man lives alone…?

After opening the lid of the thermometer and pushing the power button, my older brother came abruptly in front of me.

My face is put in black eyes.

“ear.”

A resolute tone, as if there was no need for samurai.

what is this

What does this really look like?

no. But is it okay to take a temperature measurement in this state?

My face hurts so I don’t think it’s hot.

The extreme kindness seemed to intensify the heat, but I tilted my head slightly and offered my left ear to my brother.

Wouldn’t it be fortunate that it wasn’t the heart rate that was being measured?

-beep. beep. beep.

When the measurement was completed, my brother took the thermometer again…

“hey. Doaya.”

My brother’s eyes widen.

“yes?”

Why are you like that?

“Are you 38.7 degrees?”

“yes?”

no. that high?

Thinking that it was just a bit cold in my experience, I was shocked as soon as I heard my brother’s answer.

It couldn’t be.

This must be the body temperature that includes the visiting brother buff.

“hey. It’s not the time to be like this. Go ahead and lie down.”

Grabbing my shoulders and almost forcibly sitting on the bed, my brother quickly placed a glass of water and pills in front of me.

“ruler.”

“…thank you.”

I poured the pill into my mouth, swallowed it, and laid my head on the pillow.

I didn’t even tell them where the water cup was, but I thought I had found it.

My brother’s hand caresses my forehead.

“no. Is it really too hot?”

“brother. It’s really okay to go now. I’ll move it.”

“…Do you need anything more?”

“no. Thank you so much for doing just that.”

Even though it’s next door, isn’t it because he heard that I was sick on this dark night and came running at one step.

Just that fact alone seemed to be able to overcome this cold.

“ah. Then I’ll just put a towel on my forehead and leave.”

“Not quite like that.”

My brother is not my mother either.

It didn’t have to be so extreme.

“no.”

Taemin oppa looks down at me with a very serious face.

“I want to do it for you!”

Something a bit overbearing compared to the atmosphere is definitely…

It seemed to resemble Rengaku, whom I sang on the broadcast a while ago saying that he was cool.

“I’m waiting for you!”

After entering the bathroom, my brother washed a small towel he used to wash his face and put it on my forehead.

“…is it cool?”

“Great.”

Than there is a fever.

The towel felt colder than I expected.

“brother.”

“yes?”

“Can you hold my hand?”

I wonder if it’ll be okay if it’s just a short while since I’ve come this far anyway.

Using the excuse of being a patient, I wanted to satisfy my selfishness.

I stick out my hand from under the blanket.

What follows is a cool softness.

The hand that was warm yesterday felt very cold today.

“I don’t think this… will do much to heal.”

“not really.”

I think it will be very helpful.

As I look at my brother’s face staring at the blanket without making eye contact, bad thoughts keep coming up.

That kind of thought that it was good to be sick.

I just want to stay like this for an hour.

Did you hold it for about 10 seconds?

I let go of the strength in the hand I was holding.

“I am going to sleep now. Brother, go and rest now.”

end.

Now is the time to stop being selfish.

“I will.”

Still, I thought I should say hello, so I got up, but my brother told me not to do that and put me back down.

“I gave you a towel, but why are you trying to get up?”

The older brother who grinned and tousled my hair.

I told you to get to know me slowly, but what if you keep doing this?

You know for sure that I like you!

I want to confess.

i want to say i like it

I wanted to complain about not being able to do it one day from today.

Instead of such an inner feeling, what popped out was my sneeze, which Pingtuk Dan likes.

“Ech!”

My brother pulled out a tissue from the toilet paper box and handed it to me.

“Doah.”

“yes?”

Taemin oppa, who paused for a while and rolled his eyes, smiled awkwardly.

That pose that seems to have something to say.

what. are you confessing?

do it now! do it right now! Taemin Han!

However, what came out of his mouth were other words.

“Did I feel like Jin-guk today?”

…Trinity?

It was a question with a somewhat out of the blue expression, but the answer was fixed.

okay. If I had to confess today, I wouldn’t be able to hug you properly.

It was our wish that our first day would be a healthy day, free from cold viruses.

“yes! great.”

When I answered with sincerity and strength, a smile bloomed on my brother’s face.
