The Fool's

I Can't Without You

Autumn is almost over, the weather has begun to cool in a few days snow is expected to fall, the weather is expected to cool down, people have also started to use the coat as well as Ara even though this seventh year in Korea he still feels difficulty facing the weather there, he said, this morning he had a little flu his hands were covered with gloves because he was shivering a little, at first the girl had intended not to go to the office but she was unwilling to trouble Kang Sol by giving him extra work.

The girl still had time to grumble in the middle of her condition about how she had not enjoyed autumn because she was very busy with her work, really made busy. Even though he enjoyed it.

"are you sick?"

asked Kang Sol when Ara arrived

"uum."

said the girl with a slight nod after dropping her body on the chair

"today we will be very busy because sajangnim has many schedules, are you sure you can do it?"

Kang Sol looked a little worried, he looked at Ara for a moment because the girl did not answer

"it's just the common cold, I'll take medicine you don't have to worry."

"alright."

But it turns out that what Ara said was only to calm Kang Sol's worries he did not even have time to eat lunch because of his many tasks, which are still many, his eyes felt sore making Ara slower to do a report. He could not stand it anymore, stood up from his seat and stepped towards the toilet until there he washed his face and eyes that began to water, he wished his body back to normal if it was doused in cold water but nil, theory wrong. He said words to strengthen himself that soon his working hours will be over.

The girl is always so every time winter comes especially when the peak in January will be difficult to get out of bed because of chills and fever even though the heating has been turned on it doesn't really help much, though, back when he was with Jae Hwan he was not much worried because the man and his aunt who worked in the apartment would help him but the last 3 years he had a difficult day.

"strange, even the affairs of the season remind me of him".

he muttered to himself while looking at the mirror in the sink, his nose began to water then he pulled a piece of tissue and rubbed it into the nose and then went from there with shaky steps.

"have you submitted your financial statements this morning?".

Kang Sol asked as Ara sat back at her desk

"astaga, I completely forgot about it!"

Ara searches for a red map in her work drawer after finding it and takes it to Jae Hwan's room while Kang Sol looks at her worriedly.

"are you okay?"

this time Jae Hwan asks because he knows Ara is always not strong with cold weather but Jae Hwan does not get an answer, Ara then fumbled - the palpation of the chair near her body began to dim and her vision blurred, she looked for a handle to stand but her body was really not strong.

Jae Hwan looks a little panicked he lays Ara on the sofa, and Ara does not refuse the girl his fever hot body he intends to take Ara to the hospital but this time the girl refuses.

"don't overdo it, just let me lie down for a while."

he holds Jae Hwan's hand holding the phone

"well, what do you need?"

"just 15 minutes, then I want to eat after that."

Ara smiled a little in the middle of her condition, really - really the girl Jae Hwan knew first even though under any circumstances he remained cheerful girl who even laughs infectious. Jae Hwan likes his ways.

"you, make me not take it anymore!!"

...****************...

"you're making me not take it anymore!!"

Jae Hwan looked at Ara but the girl had closed her eyes he rubbed the girl's brown hair the scented shampoo he knew came out from there, the girl did not change much.

Jae Hwan stays there enjoying the 15 minutes he has he hopes Ara does not know that the man has crossed the line by looking at the girl more than he should. Jae Hwan raises the room temperature so that the girl feels warmer he also asked Kang Sol to buy samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup) that Ara used to enjoy when conditions like this. The secretary did not ask anything he began to understand what happened between Ara and his superiors and he did not want to interfere.

"waahhhh masshiseoyo (really delicious)!"

the girl's eyes widened, she could not cover her surprised expression as the delicious food passed through her tongue and throat.

"you like it?"

Ara was surprised to choke because Jae Hwan came suddenly

"slow down - slow down!"

Said the man with a little worry

"eung."

Ara became misbehaved he was like in pergoki doing embarrassing things even though it was not so

"i'll take you home, your hours are up too."

said Jae Hwan while glancing at the clock on his wrist

"you..god, you didn't wake me?"

"ahh I'm sorry sajangnim I don't mean that."

"kaja (let's go)!"

Jae Hwan just smiles while tidying up his tie and gives Ara his coat, Ara does not refuse but the girl realizes the coat used by Jae Hwan is a gift from him first, Ara did not refuse, he looked at Jae Hwan who walked first - a warm feeling came to him. Ara shook her head trying to realize that her vigilance towards the man should not decrease. Ara can't be like this.

He arrives at his apartment after being among Jae Hwan, fortunately a superior who drove him home did not cause a commotion among other employees because they must have thought it was only a work matter. Ara became even more relieved. His phone reads a message from Kang Sol asking about his condition, then he replies by saying he is fine.

Ara lay on her warm bed the coat Jae Hwan gave her was hanging in front of the closet, the knee-length brown coat made him remember one day with Jae Hwan he remembered when they were walking that day - walking on dongdaemun street while enjoying a big cup of gelato, he said, Ara sees the fur coat and immediately likes it she forces Jae Hwan to try it when it was summer

"Ara-ya winter is still very long, we can buy it elsewhere."

"Yaaaa, I want to buy it for you, try turning around I want to see it."

Jae Hwan then turned around and twisted even though he was a little forced to not want to see Ara upset

"ahhjussi I'll buy it,"

"you know the price is not much but I bought it with money from part time work."

"you don't have to do it, but because it's mine so I'll take good care of it."

Said Jae Hwan while receiving his wrapped coat

"gomawo Ara - yes."

Jae Hwan then hugs Ara and kisses the top of the girl's head.

"Yaaaa, let go of me everyone's staring at us!"

the girl's face turned red, she was embarrassed because she was seen by some people who passed by,

"waeee?"

Jae Hwan even more tightened his embrace making Ara smile with the behavior of his lover.
