Chapter 38 She blamed herself for his sickness

At the rooftop of the hotel in the mid overnight one of the male employees came to the rooftop to smoke. While he was smoking he was startled as he heard someone's phone rings at the rooftop. He walked to the direction where the ring-tone comes from to check who that person was. He was startled to see a well dressed-up man was lying down on the cold floor under the cold weather. He gets near to that person with fear whether someone has harmed him physically, as he saw it was his CEO who was shivering under the cold weather, he dropped the cigarette on the floor crushed it under it shoe, and rushed near to him. He kneels down next to him, and gently shakes Young-soo's arms, "sir, are you alright why are you lying here at this hour?"
Young-soo slowly opened his eyes and looked at that man.
"Sir, you are burning-up with fever, wait let me call someone to help," the employee said and took out his phone from his pant pockets to call some of his co-workers for help. But Young-soo asked him to not call anybody else instead he asked that man to walk him to his office cabinet.
The employee nodded his head in understanding, helped him stand up on the floor, then he put his boss's hand around his shoulder, and carefully walked him to the elevator.
Once they reach the office cabinet he helped Young-soo to lie down on the couch, he removed his shoes, turns on the room's heater, and asked him "sir, shall I call the ambulance services to take you the hospital?"
Young-soo rejected his offer, thanked him for his help, and asked him to leave the cabinet.
The employee bowed his head his and walked out of his cabinet. But he doesn't like to let the sick person to stay alone without a proper care so after a few minutes he returned back to his boss's cabinet with a blanket, a glass of warm milk and a fever tablet. He woke up his boss with hesitation whether he'll reject his help, but Young-soo did drink the milk and had the fever tablet without any denial. Then he covered Young-soo's body with the help of the blanket.
Young-soo grabs his hand, and thanked him once again for helping him with a lot of care.
He bowed his head, asked him to get well soon, and left the room.
Next morning Eunbi gets ready to go to the college, she expects that at least he would come home to take a bath and change his dress to go to his office. But her expectations are knocks down when the time hit 7:30 am and yet Young-soo hasn't return back home. Eunbi was way too anxious whether something bad has happened to Young-soo she takes her phone and makes a call to his phone number but he didn't answer her call. Therefore, she sends him text message to his number, where are you? Why you are not answering my calls? Please answer my call or call me back or at least send me some text messages I'm worried about you, Please come back home I'm waiting for you…
In a few minutes she received a reply for her text message from his number, stop worrying about me I am fine and I am not a kid I know how to take care of myself, please stop waiting for me, and go to your college.
She felt so insulted after reading his message she took her backpack and went to her college. In the college Eunbi explained everything to Hee-jung and asked her what she did is right or wrong.
Hee-jung could clearly guess that Eunbi was in a mixed feeling with Young-soo, so she doesn't like to give some advices to Eunbi regarding this matter at the moment because she doesn't want to make things complicated. Instead of giving her some advices Hee-jung consoles her friend, "stop thinking and worrying about it too much, gradually everything will be alright, and one day Young-soo will also understand why you rejected him."
However, Eunbi couldn't compromise herself even after getting some consoling words from Hee-jung. Her heart aches and feels so guilty as if she has done some kind of unforgivable crime in her life against Young-soo.
That evening Young-soo hasn't come to pick her up from the college thus she was angry with him she grabbed a taxi and went to his office. When she reached his office she came to know through his assistant secretary that, Young-soo was fainted at the lobby due to the high fever and he was taken to the hospital. As soon she hears the news she grabbed a taxi and rushes to the hospital she was so anxious throughout the ride to the hospital by blaming herself for Young-soo's sickness.
At the hospital in the ward room Jaemin watches Young-soo by sitting next to him on the stool chair. As Eunbi gets in the room Jaemin stands up and explains her, "the doctor said it's just a high viral fever so nothing to worry, once he wakes up we can take him to the house. They gave him some medicines and an injection to reduce the fever level."
After hearing Jaemin's explanations, she sits down on the stool chair and Jaemin left the room. Eunbi runs her fingers through Young-soo's hair, "I am so sorry Young-soo I thought it's not healthy to carry a lie about my feelings with you for a longer period but I never thought my truth will hurt you badly. I'm so sorry again Young-soo." She said in a low voice by shedding tears.
An hour later Young-soo woke up turned his head to the right side and looked at Eunbi. He couldn't know whether to get happy or angry with her for her presence. Eunbi placed her palm over his forehead and checked his body temperature; his heart throbbed fast to her touch.
"How are you feeling now?" Eunbi asked.
"Feeling better," he tiredly replied.
"Good to hear," she said and takes out the tissues from its holder to wipe the sweats which were formed over his face.
Young-soo grabbed her hand and stopped her as she was about to wipe his face, "will you stop taking care of me like my mother?"
She felt so insulted, and apologized to him by looking at her laps, "I'm so sorry to reminding you about your mother through my care."
Young-soo doesn't want to be rude to her, he makes himself cautious that to not fall in love with her again. Actually he was about to mention her that stop taking care of me like my wife instead, he mentioned stop taking care of me like my mother because he doesn't want to hurt her by verbally.
Before he gets discharge from the hospital the doctor examines Young-soo's health condition once again, and advices him to take rest for a day and have the medicines without fail which have been prescribed.
Young-soo asked Jeamin to drive them to their house and Jaemin did drive the car to their house; once they reach he walks Young-soo to his room and helps him to lie down on the bed.
