Jieun's POV

Jin: Today is your checkup.

She nodded.

Jin: And also our arm plaster will be removed today.

We went to hospital.

Jimin removed my arm plaster.

Jimin: You hand is almost healed. But you shouldn't put too much pressure on it.

I nodded.

Jin: What about her leg and forehead?

Jimin: For her forehead, apply this scar prevention cream twice a day. And for her leg she should use crutches.

Jin: Will it be OK for her use it now? She still seem to be weak. (Worried)

Jimin: She needs little practice everyday.

Jin: Ok, thank you.

Jimin: Hyung, don't thank me. Take care.

Jin: You too, Jimin.

He turned looked at me

Jin: Let's go.

Jieun: C-crutches?

Jin: Not now, first you have to practice.

Time skip.

Jieun's POV

Jin: You have to be very careful while walking. OK?

I nodded. He put his hand around my waist and made me stand. He made me hold the crutches.

Jin: Walk slowly, OK?

I nodded and started walking slowly. He was still holding my waist for supporting me.

Jin: You are doing great.

Then suddenly I lost my balance. I was about to fall down. But he caught me.

Jin: Are you Ok? (Worried)

Jieun: I am fine.

Jin: I guess it's enough for today.

He picked me up in bridal style and made sit on the bed.

Jin: I will apply cream on your forehead. (Softly)

He started apply cream on my forehead. He is does every single thing for me. Am I being a burden on him?

Jieun: Jin?

He stopped and looked at me.

Jin: What happened? Does it hurts? (Worried)

Jieun: N-no. I-it's just that my arm is fine now. I can do it by myself.

Jin: It's Ok. I am your husband. I should take care of you. (Softly)

Jieun: B-but because of me, you are not going to office, you are sleeping on the coach. I am just being burden on you.

He cupped my cheeks.

Jin: You are not burden, OK? You are injured and sick. You are just 22. You can't take care of yourself on your own. It is my responsibility to take care of you. Don't ever think that you are a burden on me. Ok? (Softly)

I just nodded. He started applying cream again.

Jin's POV

The door bell rang. I opened the door. It was Namjoon with flowers.

Jin: Hi Namjoon.

Namjoon: Hi Hyung, how is Jieun?

Jin: Yeah! You asked about her but not me? (Pout)

Namjoon: Sorry, it's just because she is not well.

Jin: (Chuckle) I was just joking.

Namjoon: By the way, where is she?

Jin: She is upstairs. Let's go.

We went upstairs.

Jieun was staring at the window.

Jin: You are again awake? How many times I have told you to take rest? (Fake glare)

She gulped.

Namjoon: Hyung, calm down. Don't scold her. She is not well.

Jin: I am just worried.

Namjoon: Hi Jieun.

Jieun: H-hi.

He gave her flowers.

Jieun: T-thank you.

Namjoon: How are you now?

Jieun: Fine.

Namjoon: You should eat well and take good rest. Then you will recover quickly.

She just nodded.

Jin: You should sleep now.

She nodded.

Jin: Call me if you need anything Ok. I will be downstairs. And make sure, you sleep.

She nodded.

We went downstairs.

Namjoon: Hyung, how is her health now?

Jin: Better than before. But not good enough. (Sigh)

Namjoon: What do you mean Hyung?

Jin: (Sigh) Her biological father died when she was just 10. Her step mother made her do all the work and hurt her. No, one took proper care of her when she was growing up. That's why her condition is this. (Sad)

He wrapped his arm around my shoulder.

Namjoon: Hyung, calm down.

Jin: I can't see her like this. If only knew this before then she would never in this condition. It's my fault. (Crying)

He hugged me.

Namjoon: Hyung, stop blaming yourself. It's not your. She is safe now. She is with you.

Broke the hug.

Namjoon: Don't worry, Hyung. She will be fine. I know, you will take good care of her.
