Summary
Penelope Featherington is sick as a dog and trying to power through and be miserable on her own. Colin shows up unexpectedly, insisting on taking care of her, with just one small problem. They just had a horrible fight and aren't speaking.

“You shouldn’t be here,” she mumbles, suddenly feeling more moody and irritated by his presence. “You’ll get sick too.”
He ignores her and a moment later, she hears the sound of running water from a different part of her flat. She’s still confused.
When he returns, she stands up and crosses her arms, trying to seem steadier. She’s not.
“What are you doing here?”
“You’re sick, Pen. I came to take care of you.”
“I don’t need you to—”
“Please,” he begs, pinching the bridge of his nose. “Please just… I started the shower for you. Let me finish up in here.”
