But does he know that its not these
physical wounds that had hurt me
deeply, but the one to my heart?
I wonder when it would heal.
:.
The car stopped at the hospitals
entrance, and Jason got off with Grace in
his arms.
The doctor was already waiting in a
special room, and as soon as Grace
arrived, he began his examination.
Fortunately, it was only some physical injuries. There was nothing to worry about. The swelling on her face would also subside in a few days.
When she was done with the
examination, a new set of clothes was
placed in front of her.
Change into this, he said.
Okay, she replied. Her shirt was
torn at the shoulder and was indeed
unwearable.
She held out her hand to take it, but he did not seem to want to give it to her.
She looked at him quizzically.
He said, Youre hurt, so its not very
convenient for you to change yourself.
So? Did he mean! Graces face went
red immediately. Her red and swollen
face now looked even brighter.
Well You can ask the nurse to come
in and help me change, Grace said quickly as they were now resting in a VIP lounge, waiting for the staff to fetch her
medicine.
Are you embarrassed? What is there to be embarrassed about? Didnt I help you change your clothes before? he asked.
That was then, and this is now!
No brother helps their sister change
clothes, she said as she gritted her teeth.
Besides, her current state of mind could
not accept it.
His thin lips pressed into a straight line.
The air in the room tensed, and just when she thought he might be angry, he suddenly turned and walked out of the
room.
Moments later, a nurse came in while
holding the clothes. Mr. Reed asked me
to help you change your clothes, Miss
Cummins, the nurse said.
Grace hesitated a little before saying,
Thank you.
After she changed her clothes, Jason walked in. The medicine is here. Let me
send you home.
It was as if there had been no change in
his attitude. It was as if the brief moment
of tension had never existed.
As he spoke, he tried to hold her in his
arms.
I can walk myself, she said.

However, her words did not have the
slightest effect. He took her in his arms
and left the room. Then, he took her
away from the hospital and back to her
rental house.
Jason put Grace carefully on a chair
before going into the bathroom. A
moment later, he came out with a clean
wet towel. Here, wipe your face first
before applying the medicine.
Okay, said Grace.
However, instead of giving her the towel, Jason helped her wipe her face.
He was gentle, but Grace would still gasp from time to time.
Though she did not complain about the pain, her suppressed expression told him that she was suffering.
Cry out if it hurts, he said.
