Maru looked sideways for a second. It’s been thirty minutes since he gave Miso some medicine. It was about time the woman started recovering. Right as he thought so, the woman’s eyes started to open slowly.

“Nope, I want to hurl.”

“Okay. Can you do it over there in the corner, then?”

“That was a joke. Come on, can’t you at least fake a smile?”

“Well, you DID feed them after all.”

“It’s been 30 minutes.”

“I’m sorry about that. I’m much better now, so just sit down for a bit.”

“Hah. Was this how you treated Taesik as well?”

“Why are you talking about that now...
