Chapter 90


    Maybe I was afraid of hearing the answer. What if it wasn’t what I wanted? I would be heartbroken for a


    long time.


    I had gotten used to Colin’spany. If he suddenly left, I would definitely be sad and heartbroken.


    On the sixth day, in the morning, everyone had woken up except me. It was only then that Queenie


    realized something was wrong with me.


    I was conscious. I could hear the surrounding noises, but I couldn’t open my eyes. My head was


    pounding, and every bone in my body hurt.


    I heard Queenie and Zoey discussing something in a low voice.


    “She’s burning up. Will she be an idiot?”

    “She always sat in the wind. How could she not have caught a cold? Will she be an idiot? She


    already is one.”


    “Let’s not waste any more time. Hurry up and bring her to the infirmary. We can’t leave her be.”


    “We can’t carry her. Why is she so tall? Call someone for help.”


    My headache became more severe. My consciousness was also bing blurry. Before I fell into


    darkness. I heard someone calling out to me anxiously.


    Maybe I was hallucinating, but I smelled Colin’s scent.


    My throat was extremely dry. I woke up from coughing.


    The sun was ring. I wanted to lift my hand to block the sun, but my hand was in someone else’s


    hand. I couldn’t lift my hand.


    Quickly, I turned to see who it was. Colin, who was awakened by my movements, looked at me with


    sleepy eyes. His eyes, which were always filled with stars, were filled with surprise and guilt at that


    time.


    It was Colin!


    “Lulu, are you awake? Do you want water?” Colin looked frail. Even his voice was hoarse.


    “I can take it myself. Thank you, Colin.” Colin was finally here. I should be happy, but upon thinking


    about his disappearance for several days, I was no longer so sure.

    I didn’t know if


    I didn’t know if he was here to visit me because I was sick, or if he was going to be by my side every


    day


    from then on.


    I didn’t dare to look forward to it. I was scared that the oue wouldn’t be what I wanted.


    I had thought about it for the past few days. In the future, I needed to rely on myself to live. I couldn’t


    continue to depend on others. I wouldn’t put my hope in others as well.


    I didn’t want to suffer from another loss. It was too painful.


    I wanted to sit up. The cup of water was just on the cupboard nearby. I only needed to reach forward a


    little.


    A warm hand pressed my shoulder, making me lie back down. Then, Colin turned around and poured


    some warm water into the cup. After putting in a straw, he put the cup in front of me.

    lean on his shoulder. “Here, I’ll hold it for you.”


    I stared at him in disbelief. After I drank two sips of water with Colin holding the cup, my throat felt more


    I stared at Colin. His gaze became gentle as he sighed.


    “Colin, I’m fine now. You can carry on with your work. You don’t need to take care of me. I can take


    care


    of myself.”


    I was fine. During that year, I did alright without Felix and Colin.


    “I’m not busy. I’ll apany you today.” Colin put my hand back into the covers and tucked me in.


    “But…”


    It had been six days, yet Colin never epted my calls or responded to my texts. Wasn’t it because he


    was busy? Why was he suddenly no longer busy?
