Paul came just in time. So, Skylar gave him a smile.
He was a bit surprised to see Skylar smiling.
“Please give the medicine to Mr. Martin now,” Skylar said.
Then, Paul immediately poured the liquid medicine as instructed. When he handed it to Joe, he said, “Mr. Martin, this one tastes pretty good. It has a fruity taste.
He had chosen from several options, and this one seemed to be the easiest to drink, something even kids would.
“Fruity?” Skylar was curious.
The medicine had a fruity flavor?
She then stared at Joe. But the more she looked, the more she couldn’t hold back. In the end, she laughed.
It seemed Joe was even more difficult to deal with than a child. He needed to be coaxed to take medicine, and it had to be something without a strong aftertaste.
Joe’s face darkened as he looked at Skylar laughing. Then, he cast a cold glance at Paul. That look made Paul’s heart skip a beat.
He wondered if he had done something wrong.
Probably not.
Hopefully not.
Joe noticed Skylar was still laughing. So, his ears started to turn red. He grabbed the medicine from Paul and downed it in one go while keeping his eyes fixed on her.
He couldn’t really taste anything, but an odd feeling in his mouth made him uncomfortable.
Skylar then handed him a glass of water. “Drink some water, it’ll make your throat feel better.”
Joe looked at the glass before him, the
at Skylar, before taking it and sipping the water slowly. The warm
water really eased the unpleasant feeling in his mouth.
“Well, Mr. Martin, Mrs. Martin, I’ll head out now. If you need anything, just give me a call.” Then, Paul quickly made his exit.
With Skylar there, he didn’t have to worry anymore.
Before either of them could respond, he had already closed the door behind him.
Now, it was just Skylar and Joe in the room.
Joe felt a little dizzy from the fever but still couldn’t sleep. With Skylar there, he knew he didn’t want to just settle for less. He knew he would sleep better if he could hold her.
“It’s getting late. Let’s sleep,” Joe said.
Skylar glanced at the time. It was indeed late. “Okay, I’ll take a shower first.”
“No need.”
Joe grabbed Skylar’s wrist and pulled her straight onto the bed.
She didn’t expect him to still have the strength to pull her since he was sick. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“I need to change into my pajamas,” Skylar said helplessly.
How could he be so clingy when he was sick? He wasn’t like this before.
But after she spoke, there was no response from Joe Looking more closely, she realized he had already closed his eyes and was practically glued to her.
His body temperature was still high. So, after just being hugged for a while, she felt herself starting to
sweat.
She had just returned and hadn’t even changed into her pajamas, but he didn’t seem to care and had fallen asleep right away!
Fine, he was sick, after all. So, she wouldn’t argue with him. Besides, Skylar was really tired, too.
In just a few minutes, the room was filled with their steady breathing.
Later that night, Skylar woke up once more, feeling groggy. She noticed that Joe’s body wasn’t as warm as before. So, she drifted back to sleep again.
