Maybe we all think that in every place we want to make the most beautiful memories even with people we just met. It must be in our minds to save interesting stories in a photo.
However, what happens when the moment we've been waiting for ends badly with the presence of someone we don't want?
________
It's been 3 hours since I've been playing the game, I'm so hungry...
My stomach growled...
I'm hungry but very lazy to cook, I immediately end this game, I put the stick on the kotatsu table, and turn off the tv.
I still want to be lazy, I put my face on the kotatsu table, then turned to the balcony window. Many times I yawned ..., I began to lift my face and support my chin.
I ate the rest of the snack that was in front of me, I thought would my life be like this forever?
Even I can't greet my guest properly.
I sighed and thought of something that could make me a lot more useful.
"...."
I turned to Fuyuki, he was still looking at the laptop seriously.
"Hey, you're not hungry?" I asked as I sat down next to him.
"Hmm..." The answer is still looking at the laptop seriously.
It seemed like he couldn't be bothered.
"Okay, I'm going to the kitchen first."
I got up from the chair leaving him in the room above.
When I was about to go down the stairs he called me, "Ayami...." He said quietly.
"Yes?" I answered him quickly.
"Can you get me some water to drink?"
"Oh yes, wait a minute."
"Thank you."
I got a glass of water from the sink, then I went back to the room above, I handed the glass of drinking water near the laptop.
Meanwhile, he took his clothesline near the balcony, then changed into his underwear and trousers.
'Cough-cough-cough' he coughed slightly after changing his pants and continuing his work in front of the laptop again.
"Are you okay?" What kind of question is this, it's clear that he's pushing himself.
He take hold of the glass and drank half a glass of water that I had served, then he put the rest into its original place.
He turned to me and smiled faintly at me "Ah, I'm fine."
"O-oh."
"...."
I replied with a smile too.
He tried to focus back on the laptop, "Um..." I wanted to ask but it was awkward.
"I..."
"Ayami, are you going to celebrate Christmas today?" He started the conversation first by cutting me off for taking too long to say.
"I don't celebrate Christmas, but I just want to create a Christmas atmosphere at home like most people, hehe." I forgot to make the design, I even forgot that today is Christmas, because I was too busy playing the game earlier.
"Shall we do it tonight?" He asked with a gentle smile looking at me.
"Eh, but..." I answered doubtfully.
"You don't want to?" Slowly his face turned gloomy.
"Um." I nodded, "It's okay." I smiled softly in response. I am quite happy if there is someone who wants to celebrate something on an important day with me.
"Thank you, I want to have memories of an important day like this, even if only with you."
His words made me blush and blush again...
I immediately looked down, hiding my embarrassment, I couldn't look at his face.
Once again I was made like this when dealing with him.
"Oh yeah I forgot, do you have a camera?"
"I don't have any," I answered him with a flat expression.
"Hmm, I told him to bring it too."
"Who?"
"My liege."
"S-so you're going to celebrate Christmas here?" I asked annoyed.
"Well, did I just say the two of us?" he asked surprised.
"Oh, that's right." That's right, he summoned analysis here.
"Why? You seem disapproving...."
Jiiiiiiiiii-
"I-I just... forgot, hehe." I dodged while making a ridiculous answer.
"...."
"Okay, I'm going to the kitchen first."
"Y-yes..."
****
I'm in the kitchen, ready to cook. I forgot to ask him his favorite dish...
"Okay, I'll make a simple meal," I mumbled while preparing all the ingredients for the food.
I can also cook well, but I'm just lazy. But for the taste of Fuyuki's class, I feel inferior! I feel like I'm still far below his ability.
Well, the important thing is that it can be eaten.
****
"Success!!" The aroma of the dishes I made was so tempting, that I immediately served the dish to the dining table. It turned out that my cooking skills weren't too bad either.
I arranged Christmas ornaments in the living room. Maybe we can welcome them...
"Yeah!!"
If we're partying maybe we'll need a beer or something...
Hmm... I only have canned soda and syrup in the fridge.
"Maybe this is enough."
When it's time to eat...
"I'd better call him." I walked towards the upper room, and I didn't see him there "Eh!?"
But, the laptop is still on...
The tab is also here, the cellphone is fully charged but not removed.
"Where is he going?" I muttered.
While continuing my steps I looked for him in the room. I opened the bedroom door but, "He's not here...?" I was restless when he disappeared.
I remember I haven't searched any of the rooms in my house.
"Fuyuki?" I shouted, "Let's eat." I added.
I headed towards the bathroom, maybe he was pooping, huh?
*Toilet
I heard him coughing.
"...Fuyuki, were you in the toilet?"
"Yes." The answer was hoarse.
"I'll wait in the dining room, I'll cook some food-"
Suddenly he came out with a limp body and his face was red but his skin was pale.
He approached me...
"What's wrong with you?" I knew he wasn't well but forced himself.
"Ehehe~ I got caught, huh?" He replied while putting on a stupid look.
I touched his arm, stopping him in his tracks. So weakly his hand grabbed mine.
I immediately checked his forehead with my right hand, "Wait a minute."
He was silent in front of me, his eyes looked droopy looking at me.
*His body feels warm
He caught a fever, "Enough..."
'Cough, cough, cough….'
"You should rest first." I grabbed his shoulder and was about to carry him to the room.
"Sorry-" He suddenly dodged my hand and went back to the toilet.
"Are you all right? You look worried!" I'm worried.
"Sorry, suddenly my stomach hurts" He replied in the toilet, "Maybe it's just because I eat too many sweets."
"...."
I thought it seems strange if he only eats too many sweets. I even saw near the laptop that there were still about half of the sweets left that he had not finished. He wouldn't tell the truth if I didn't ask him seriously, the wound in his stomach was probably already inflamed from a sharp object stab infection. I can't cure him, the only help is to take him to the hospital. But-
A few minutes later he came out of the toilet.
"You're still here?" Ask him to me.
"Of course." I sarcastically replied, "I can't let sick people run around, you should rest first."
"...." He looked away, speechless without answering me.
"Come on!" I brought a first aid kit while waiting for him in the toilet earlier. I carried his limp body to my room.
I opened the room, I told him to immediately lie down on the bed, then I pulled the blanket and covered his whole body.
"So...." He wanted to talk to explain.
"Try putting this under your armpit for a while." I held out the thermometer in front of him. He got it from my hand and immediately put it on his armpit, I also had him read it "39.8" he said.
"See, you have a high fever. You must take a full rest today." I insisted as I took the thermometer back from him.
"Okay."
"In a moment I will bring some ice water to compress you."
"Sorry-"
"What for?"
"I'm bothering you, and you've worked so hard to cooking..."
"Ah, forget about it! Wait a minute, okay!"
I took a basin of ice water quickly, and a glass of water for him to drink.
....
I looked at my food which was ready to be served and eaten, my eyes filled with tears because I felt like I wasted the material food that I had stored up all this time.
My tears are falling little by little. I quickly wiped away the tears on my cheeks. On the other hand, I can't let a sick person near me.
Maybe to be more precise, the loss of food material is not a problem, it can be looked for again. Meanwhile, if a life is lost, it will not be found in this world anymore.
His condition today was quite pathetic, he could potentially lose his life.
Everyone is bound to die, but if he dies now then there's no point in me taking care of him right now.
His breath was fast, his pulse was weak, and he was panting as soon as he was about to speak.
When his body temperature is hot, I immediately compress it with ice water.
He said, after eating some cakes he had diarrhea. After that he was nauseous and had no desire to eat, his body went limp as soon as he walked out of the toilet. I gave him intestinal thrush before it got worse.
She must be dehydrated because ever since we met, she's always been thirsty and her lips look so dry.
I kept him so close, slowly closing his eyes, he turned his body towards me. He took his hand out of the blanket, then took my hand.
"Sorry, under these conditions, I troubled you too much." His voice was hoarse from the pain.
"It's okay," I said impatiently looking at it. I couldn't wait to take him to the hospital but it would be a burden on him.
"Thank you." His eyes were even darker, his tone was so low when he said that.
"Yes, you're welcome." Thanks to him being here, I realized that I should be more sensitive to other people.
"We can't make memories first."
'Cough, cough, cough.'
"I want ... we could at least take one photo."
"It's okay, rest yourself first. If it's good then we can party anyway."
"Hehehe, thank you." His smile looked forced, "So..., maybe in a bit, if my liege and an analyst arrive, please ask them to come into the room."
"Okay!"
"Ayami," he said softly as he closed his eyes "...Don't leave me."
He fell asleep immediately.
"Yes, I promise not to leave you," I muttered as I left the room.
****
In the end, we don't a Christmas party. I turned off the laptop, closed it, and put it in my room, not forgetting to bring my tab, cellphone, and charger in the small cupboard near the bed.
I also diligently replace his compressor.
I've seen her many times, her face becomes very cute when she sleeps, I'm so excited to look at her.
Night came...
At 19.00 someone gently knocked on my door.
I happened to be waiting in the living room. "I heard someone knock on the door. Is it just me?"
Who's out there?
Could it be Fuyuki's guest?
