    “She’s actually…” Jason was about to say Corinne was Jeremy’s wife when Corinne cut him off.

    “We actually got to know each other through having the same illness,” quipped Corinne.


    “Illness?” repeated L in shock.


    Jason never expected Corinne would respond in such a way. He initially frowned, but he then smiled in


    anticipation of what she was going to say next.


    Corinne nodded. “Yeah. He and I were in the same group chat created to talk about our illness. We


    were just talking about how he was doing just now.”


    L looked questioningly at Jason. “What illness is she talking about? Jason, are you sick? Why didn’t


    you tell me?”


    “Uh-oh. Sounds like you haven’t told her yet, Jason,” said Corinne in mock surprise.


    Jason smiled and decided to y along. “Yeah, I haven’t found the right time to tell her yet.”


    “Oh, I’m so sorry! I shouldn’t have been such a big bbermouth,” said Corinne apologetically. Jason


    shook his head. “It’s okay. I have to tell her sooner orter.”


    L was immensely confused. “Jason, what illness do you have? You can’t keep this kind of


    information from me!”


    Before Jason could say anything. Corinne replied on his behalf, “Don’t worry, Miss L. What he has


    isn’t serious, and he won’t die from it. It’s just a little intractable disease, that’s all. It’s contagious, but


    as long as you take the necessary precautions…”


    As soon as L heard the word, ‘contagious’, she jumped away from Jason in panic as she tried to


    recall all the times she hade in contact with him. Even the two sales assistants who followed her


    there instinctively took a step back.


    Seeing L’s reaction, Corinne continued saying, “Don’t worry, Miss L! The chances of it passing on


    to another person is very small, but it’s very hard to cure it when you get it, so…”


    The bbergasted L took out her phone to send a message quickly. Not five seconds after that, her


    phone rang.


    She smiled awkwardly and said, “Excuse me, I need to take this.”


    After that, she strode to the other side and said in a loud voice in response to what the person on the


    other end of the phone said, “What? Everyone’s there, and you’re all waiting for me? Oh fine, I’ll be


    there in a sec!”


    She then hung up the phone and turned to face Jason and Corinne. This time, she made sure to keep


    her -distance from both of them. “Sorry, Jason. My besties invited me to have a spa day with them,


    so…” she


    trailed off awkwardly.


    Jason stood up and took out his car keys. “It’s okay. Why don’t I give you a ride to the spa?”


    L smiled forcefully and waved her hand. “No… No thanks. You should stay here with Miss Corinne!


    It’s not every day you guys get to talk to each other.”


    “If you say so,” said Jason ‘ruefully’. “Enjoy your spa session, then.”


    “Will do. I’ll be off, then. Have fun with each other, Jason, Miss Corinne.”


    After that, she ran out of the store.


    The two sales assistants held the bag L was holding with two fingers as though they were holding


    something poisonous. Then, they quickly backed away from Jason and Corinne and went to sanitize


    the bag.
