Kiss Me if You Can

“… … Shh, Josh Bailey!”

Josh barely opened his eyes as his name was repeatedly called. Someone’s face appeared in his blurry vision.

For a moment, he was confused. It was a familiar face, but who was it?

The other person seemed embarrassed at his slowly opening and closing eyelids, but soon opened his mouth.

“I think you’re still out of your mind.”

“Emma, ​​be quiet.”

Josh turned his head at the scolding, and belatedly remembered who they were. His mother looked down at Josh with a pitiful face and continued speaking.

“How are you feeling? They said you’d get better soon since you got the shot, but just in case, they said to hospitalize you for a week to see how you’re doing.”

Josh asked his mother’s words in confusion.

“What do you mean, progress?”

His mother and Emma looked at each other. His mother hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth.

“Didn’t you suddenly have a heat cycle? Since it’s your first time, we need to see how it goes, and fortunately, nothing serious happened, but we need to see how to use the medicine until it stabilizes.”

“You collapsed in the warehouse alone, what happened? What were you doing there?”

Emma blurted out from the side. She didn’t like the fact that she made her family worry. But Josh was distracted.

“Alone?”

Now that I think about it, who brought me here?

When he had a question, Emma said next.

“Yeah, if it weren’t for Jack, who would have happened? Jack! Come in, you’re my benefactor.”

She said grumpily, then left and came back, dragging the guy who was standing outside the door. He was the guy Emma had a crush on, avoiding Josh’s gaze and shyly unable to speak. Josh was momentarily flustered as he recalled the time he went to beat up his family with his gang and ended up getting nothing.

“You brought me here?”

He stuttered in surprise at Josh’s question.

“Uh, well, I just called 911… … .”

Josh stared at Jack for a moment in silence. Thinking back on the situation before he lost consciousness, there were more than a few suspicious things. Moreover, judging by his hesitation, it was clear that he was hiding something. Josh fixed his gaze on him and opened his mouth.

“Mom, Emma. Can you step out for a moment? I want to talk to you two alone. … … I have to say hello.”

Emma tried to object, but her mother grabbed her arm and she failed. As she was dragged out, she added a warning.
