Rewriting My Heart's Fate

Chapter 105

I was lying down, wondering if I could still make it back to campus, when I suddenly heard a loud thud nearby.

Startled, I turned my head and saw Liam tumble off the couch. He rolled a few times before finally stopping with his face flat on the floor. It was quite the sight-his prized face now scrunched up with all sorts of wrinkles from the impact.

I thought he'd wake up after a fall like that, but after waiting a moment, all he did was wriggle his hips like a cocoon and continue to lie there in the same position.

It had been snowing in Napel the past few days, and today was one of the coldest days since winter began.

I couldn't help but wonder if he'd catch a cold sleeping like that all night. My conscience nagged at me, so I got up, still a bit unsteady, and walked over to him. I gave him a light nudge with my foot.

"Liam, wake up," I said. "Come on, Liam, if you don't get up, you'll break your nose, and you'll look like a mess tomorrow."

No response.

Worried he might suffocate, I crouched down to try and move his face, but I was too weak and couldn't move him at all. With no other choice, I went out to look for a staff member.

For some reason, it took forever to find anyone in this place, but I finally spotted a server in a black vest up ahead. I rushed toward him, calling out, "Excuse me, wait!"
