The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

This time around, Sophia was truly feeling unwell—her gastric problems were acting up again. She had not taken her medication before going out this morning, nor did she bring her medication with her. In the beginning, she thought that nothing would go wrong.

As a result, her gastric problems began not long after they started sightseeing and her stomach began hurting very badly.

At that moment, Zack mentioned that John ran into some issues. So, she decided to return with him after considering it briefly.

To be honest, she wasn’t having a lot of fun anyway. The Edge of the World was a place where many couples went. Hence, only couples went there to take pictures.

Looking at the two rocks the Edge of the World was famous for, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

However, she could tell that Trevor was slightly displeased when she suggested they go back. Frankly speaking, his displeasure began when Zack decided to tag along with them. Still, she didn’t give much thought to the feelings of a person she would not have much to do with in the future.

After that, Sophia separated from Zack and Trevor and returned to her room to take her medicine.

The doctor mentioned that she was suffering from a bacterial infection in her stomach. Therefore, she had to take antibiotics on top of the medicine for her gastric problems.

The doctor had prescribed her a ton of medicine—some were to be eaten before meals while others were to be eaten after meals.

Sophia endured the pain as she laid out all her medicine. Then, she took all the medicine that was to be taken before meals. It was a large handful of them, and it felt as if she would be full just from the water she needed to drink to swallow all of them.

After taking her medication, she lay down on the bed and curled into a ball.
