Unfortunately, even after handling Leo as delicately as I could, it still did not prevent Leo from getting a cold in the middle of the night.
In hindsight, it was expected for Leo to fall sick after waiting for me by the front door completely naked for over an hour during nighttime. Even though my house has the heater turned on, it still wouldn’t help much if a person does nothing to protect himself from the weather.
I woke up in the middle of the night after hearing ruffling sounds right beside me, feeling something repeatedly move against my back. It was at this time that I found Leo’s face completely scrunched up, his brows furrowed while his eyes were still shut. I had initially thought that Leo was simply having a nightmare, but after seeing the amount of sweat trickling down from his brows, I placed the back of my palm against Leo’s forehead and found it to be burning.
