002 - Just One Day
The Awakening of the Sacred Coven
He was wearing a hospital gown in what could possibly be the school clinic. It was confirmed when he heard the familiar voice of the school nurse treating someone behind the curtains next to him.
It’s not that he’s a regular at the student clinic. He knows he’s not athletic and perhaps not a weakling as well. But he has enhanced auditory senses that he could hear thoughts and easily familiarize himself with voices. One confinement in the clinic is enough to make him remember who owns that calming voice, even if that was ages ago.
Mrs. Son will serve as his beloved caregiver in school today. He would watch him with a motherly eye and let him stay in the comfort of her abode. He already read her thoughts. She was planning to give him cookies when he wakes up.
Taehyung then closed his eyes and faked his sleep so as not to disturb the nurse who is still working on another job.

Then both hands turned into flower cups below his chin as he gave her a cute smile again.
He is full of aegyo even when he’s sick.
But the girl just ignored him. Her thoughts saying, "He's weird."
"How are you feeling, dear? Were you having a bad dream?" Mrs. Son asked.
"Um, no," Taehyung replied as if apologetically, "I heard someone scream."
Mrs. Son gave him a wary look, "Nobody screamed."
Okay. So it was all in his head. His head that was hit earlier suddenly finds it hard to discern which is said and thought.
Taehyung then scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, "I guess it was a bad dream."
"Maybe you should get some rest," Mrs. Son suggested as she finished dressing the wound.
"I guess I'm okay," Taehyung said ruefully. "What happened?"
