He didn't push her away, but waited for her nightmare to end, making sure she was soundly asleep before continuing to wipe her body and tuck her in.
Half an hour later, he wiped her sweat with a hot towel again. This time Emily was still restless, tossing and turning in bed. Charlie had to be careful not to let her pull on the needle, while he himself got quite a workout.
After doing this several times, he was drenched in sweat himself. He had never taken care of someone like this in his whole life.
After wiping her sweat again, she finally fell into a sound sleep.
Charlie looked at the sleeping girl and revealed a smile that was both helpless and gentle.
He went to the master bedroom to take a shower, and when he came back, the medicine in the bottle was almost finished. He carefully removed the needle for Emily, touched her forehead, and found it cooler.
Letting out a long sigh, he opened her wardrobe, found her pajamas, and helped her put them on before tucking her in again, and then left her room quietly.
It was almost three o'clock in the morning. When he returned to his bedroom, Charlie felt exhausted but he couldn't fall asleep, worrying that Emily might kick the blanket off again.
Tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep, Charlie simply got up and went to check on Emily again. Seeing her sleep soundly, with her blanket still in the same position as when he left, he couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous.
It wasn't until dawn that Charlie finally dozed off. Because he had to leave the house at six, his alarm clock rang less than two hours later.
The sky outside was already getting bright. Charlie checked on Emily first, saw her sleeping well, not having a fever again, nor kicking off the blanket. He watched her for a while and then left her room.
At six o'clock, Charlie called Estelle.
Upon hearing that Emily was sick, Estelle immediately woke up and got dressed, before coming downstairs.
Charlie said: "Sorry for waking you up at this time."
