Steve had been feeling bad for three days. He thought that he had caught a cold while walking with Jovan near his summer house. They walked through the forest for a long time. It rained that day and it was very cold. Of course they drank a lot of slivovitz afterwards, since Jovan thought that rakia is a good medicine! But in the morning Steve felt awful. He had a headache and his throat hurt. His temperature was also high – over 38ºC and he could hardly talk. Fortunately, Jovan came and called the doctor. When the doctor arrived, he examined Steve and said that he had flu. Steve didn’t go to work. He stayed in bed and drank a lot of lemonade. He was also taking tablets three times a day.
