Chapter 5

Brennan’s physical condition has always been good, but this time the high fever came on quite

violently.

He hadn’t been to the hospital for a long time, but unexpectedly, this time he was forcibly taken to

the hospital by Brittany and ended up staying in the hospital for two days.

He didn’t want to come to the hospital originally. He wanted to take advantage of being sick to rest at home and spend two more days with Marlene.

He always felt that she had been acting a bit strange in the past few days, but he couldn’t pinpoint

exactly what was off. In any case, it was a feeling that made him very uneasy.

But this time he was really sick, even after taking fever–reducing medicine, his temperature still didn’t go down. Brittany video–called him and noticed that he was a bit delirious from the fever, so

she quickly took him to the hospital.

He fainted from the fever as soon as he arrived at the hospital, and when he woke up, it was already

the next day.

While he was in a deep sleep, he seemed to have dreamt about Marlene in a dazed state.

It was the summer of her seventeenth year when he took her for an outing.

She was wearing a white dress that day, with her hair tied up in a high ponytail, running and playing

with him in the grass.

In that instant when she turned back, the smile on her face amazed him greatly.

He only realized that the little girl he had raised by himself had grown into a young lady. He suddenly felt a flutter in his heart, but immediately he warned himself not to feel this way.
