Jess woke up with a throbbing headache and a parched throat. The bright sun peeking on her bedroom window was something that she always enjoys. But not today. The bright lights were making her headache worse. 

She hopes she had someone that would draw the curtain for her. Her body was so heavy, she didn't want to get out of bed. She wondered why she felt like she was going down with the flu when she fell asleep last night feeling fine. 

The window was really troubling her. She wanted to close it. She wants total darkness because the burning sensation behind her eyes and the sunlight entering her room making it worse. 

She misses Noah's pitch-black room. She misses Noah. 

She slowly pushed herself until she was leaning against the headboard. She didn't get up from the bed because the moment she moved, she watched the room dance. 

While she was scooting to the head of the bed, her hand groped her phone. She could send a message to Markus to ask for help but when she checked it, the phone had no battery. She wondered what she could do to drain the battery of her phone. 

But a dead phone is the last of her worries right now. She wanted to close the damn window but the room was spinning in front of her eyes. She didn't dare move from where she was until the spinning of her room subsided. 

She leaned against the headboard and closed her eyes. She touched her forehead and felt the high temperature emitting from her skin. She doesn't need a thermometer to know that she has a fever. 

She remembered her promise to Noah before she was sucked into sleep. She promised him that she would call him as soon as she woke up but her phone battery was dead and the sunlight from her bedroom window was annoying her. 

She was debating how to close the window when she heard a soft knock on the door. Relief flooded her body, and despite the pain in her throat, she raised her voice as loudly as she could, "Enter."

When Aadir emerged from the closed door, Jess felt like she could cry with gratitude. She raised her hand to call him. In the first word she had spoken, her voice had already given out.

She must be looking like shit because Aadir's face was filled with worry when he saw her. 

"Miss Zimmerman, what happened?" he asked while his eyes were scanning the room. 

She pointed to the window, hoping Aadir would understand that she wanted the window closed.

Aadir put down the vase of yellow tulips on Jess's nightstand, and hurriedly went to the window and drew the curtain tightly. 

Jess smiled in gratitude. She then handed her dead phone to Aadir and pointed to the balcony. She left her charger there. 

Aadir took long strides to go to the balcony and retrieve her charger. He came back to her side, almost sprinting. Jess put the charging cable and pointed again to the electric outlet. 

Aadir picked up the end of the charger and plugged it in on the electric socket on the wall behind the lampshade on the night table. 

"I will call the doctor and Markus," Aadir said in a gentle tone. "Before I go out, do you need something else?"

Jess smiled and shook her head. 

"I'll be right back Miss Zimmerman," he bowed down lightly and turned to his heels. 

Jess, relieved that someone would come for her, closed her eyes, and the drowsiness she was feeling, pulled her into slumber once again. 

When she opened her eyes, she already had an IV drip on her arm, Aadir was sitting on a chair next to her bed, and a man wearing a white coat was sitting on the table near the window. 

"Water," her voice croaked. 

Aadir jumped on his feet and fetched her a glass of water from the serving trolley that was parked next to the side table of her bed. 

Jess saw the man that was wearing a white coat, stood up from the chair when he saw that she was already awake. 

"Hello, Miss Zimmerman. I'm Dr. Patel." 

He introduced himself to Jess, who was drinking water slowly from the glass that Aadir gave her. 

"Hello, Dr. Patel." Jess was relieved when she could speak without feeling as if she was scraping her throat on how dry it was.

"We put an intravenous line on you because you are severely dehydrated. We also took a sample of your blood for us to know the reason for it since I was informed that you didn't step out of this house for the last twenty fours hours."

Jess felt a nagging feeling at the back of her mind. It seemed like what was happening with her had nothing to do with her falling asleep in the bathtub. She glanced at her phone that was on her nightstand, charging. 

She grabbed her phone and sent a message to her aunt and Ellise. She wanted to send a message to Noah but she wanted to talk to the doctor that checked her first. 

"You don't think it is possible for me to be dehydrated when I basically just stay inside the study yesterday." 

"With how dehydrated you are, it's almost impossible. Hence, I had taken a blood sample and sent it to the laboratory to check what happened to you." 

Jess felt scared about the possibility of what happened to her. The threat of her life resurfaced when she wasn't expecting it. She gripped the phone in her hand as she watched the doctor, checking her IV line.

She opened her phone to send Noah a message, but she couldn't think of what to tell him. She doesn't want to call him while Aadir and Dr. Patel were in the room. But, with the way Aadir was sitting on the chair, watching her like a hawk, she wondered what Markus told him again. 

She looked down on her phone and sent Noah a one-word message.
