The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Apart from the antipyretic, the doctor also gave her some medication. There was no need for hospitalization, so she could go home right away.

As such, John took her back to the hotel while Zack brought over some fresh linens and laid them on the bed before John lay her on the bed.

Naturally, Sophia curled up again.

After tucking her into bed, John stood next to her and watched her.

There was a pill on top of the bedside table, and even though John did not recognize what it was, he recognized the medication box next to it.

He then stared at that pill for a long time.

In the meantime, Zack was boiling some water before bringing over the antipyretic. “Let her have some of this and some good night’s rest. She’ll be fine tomorrow.”

John grunted and took the medication and water from him.

As the water was still slightly hot, he left it on the bedside table. “Let’s wait for it to cool off. Anyway, it’s getting late. You better get some rest. I’ll take over from here.”

Zack nodded and left the room.

After that, John pulled out a chair and sat down next to Sophia.

This was something he had never done before, so it felt oddly refreshing.
