I woke up dizzy in a white room. My head immediately ache when I tried to get up. Winter quickly succored me. Her face is completely worried and concerns.
"Are you okay? How are you feeling?" She fired me questions.
I massaged my head. I suddenly panicked when she started crying.
"I'm sorry... I'm really sorry..." She cried.
"The doctor said you we're food poison. I feel like it's my fault because I'm the one who bought the food." She added.
"I'm okay now. It's not your fault."
But that didn't stop her from crying. I asked her if she has classes to attend but she refuse to come because of me. She said that she was excused.
We stayed there for a minutes until the nurse walks in and checked my condition. Good thing that I immediately bought here and luckily the poison didn't spread easily on my body.
I went home afterwards. Winter accompanied me. She keep on asking if I was okay or do I need anything. I just laughed at her. I walked inside our house and to my surprise there's someone sitting on our couch. Grandma doesn't usually invite someone inside our house. Even our neighbors never stepped in.
It's a woman. She looks elegant and sophisticated. Her hair is neatly braided in a bun. She's wearing a long dark red dress. Her neck is full of glittery necklaces.
Grandma come out from the kitchen and she was startled to see me. She looks like she saw a ghost. She was about to sat something but I bowed to her guest and nods to my grandma as I walked inside my room. I lie down on my bed and closed my eyes.
It feels like everything that happened was just a snap of finger. I heaved a sighed. I'm so tired today.
The next day, I felt weak and heavy. But I managed to go to school. I'm early but there's some students inside our room. My eyes met Yuna's eyes and she was blankly watched me sit at my seat.
I stretch my arms on the table and let my head rest. I closed my eyes for a bit.
"Are you sick?" I heard Yuna.
I didn't mind her. I heard her murmured something but I didn't understand. She was gone after that. I had my five minutes rest when I heard a noise from my classmates.
"Good morning. I'll be taking over to Mr. Han today."
I immediately recognized his voice. I slowly raised my head and our eyes met. I felt the unfamiliar electricity between us. He lift up his right eyebrows with me.
"Before I start, I don't want anyone sleeping when the class starts."
I cleared my throat. I'm not numb but I know he's pertaining to me. He started giving us papers for the quiz. Though we're expecting we'll be having a quiz still, my classmates frowned. When I received my paper, I started answering it.
Half of the hour, I noticed that most of my girls classmates were the first one to finish the test. Until half of the class finished the test. I was the last one to passed the paper to him. I handed it to him without meeting his eyes.
"Don't go to school when you're sick." He said.
My eyes widened in fraction but I quickly hide it. I bit my tongue to not say a word. I immediately go back to my sit.

I met Winter at the cafeteria when lunch time. She quickly noticed something to me.
"Ya! I heard you're sick?"
"It's just a fever. I can manage." I coughed.
"My god! I wouldn't know if he didn't tell me..." She murmured. "Let's go! I'll bring you to the infirmary."
I don't have any choice but to go with her. When we got there, there was a commotion outside the infirmary.
"What's happening here?" Winter asked.
"Winter! You haven't heard it? Soobin encountered Jungwon's and had a fight."
"What? When did they came back?"
Winter parted them and we walked inside. There was group of boys riotously in one of the bed. I even heard from them a loud distress shout. I sat in one of the bed while Winter walked towards them.
"Oh! Minjeong!"
"Where's Sunoo?"
"Sunoo? He's h--"
"Noona!"
A blonde haired boy approached Winter. His smile is wide and bright. He must be Winter's brother.
"Since when did you come back?"
I closed the curtains and let my body rest in the bed. I was about to closed my eyes when I heard someone tattled. I turn my head and it was a boy from another bed.
He narrowed his eyes on me before a menacing smirk draw on his lips.
"I knew it." He lazily shake his head as he chuckling.
"Because you're here, he won't leave."
My forehead creased.
"Ya! It was Soobin's fault! Soobin pissed him off!"
A boy smacked him reasoned to divert his attention from me. I shook my head and closed my eyes.
Why does it feels like everything became weird. Everytime there's a new face, they look liked they know something from me that even myself don't know what is it. I shrugged it off and close my eyes.
