He didn't even wipe it away, he looked like he was in his own world.
I immediately ran out of the room to grab the first aid for him.
When I returned, I saw him sitting on the floor with his legs on either side of him, and his head ducked down between them, his injured hand placed on the floor.
He looked up from his position and said, "Oh, you're back, I thought you would have left me too" he said with a chuckle.
I went to him and crouched down to him. Kissing his cheek and forehead, I told him while having my own tears emerging from my eyes.
"Never, never baby, I would never leave you.... I like you, we've promised to learn to love each other, I can't.... Leave you" I shuddered at the thought of leaving him.
I wouldn't be able to live without him, he has become a piece of mine now, I can't let him be away.
He frowned and took his non-injured hand, he wiped my tears away.
"Don't cry 'cause of me, you went through a lot worse, my pain is nothing like yours, don't waste your precious tears on me... "
How can he think like that?
I will not allow him to think like that.
"Kezr... Love... Nobody's pain is less or more, everybody has skeletons of their own, some hide them in the closet, some don't. Don't think for a second that your pain is less than mine, everybody has their own pain, and they are nothing compared to the other, because I don't know what you went through, and you don't know what I went through, but the least we can do is be there for someone when they need us..... And baby, I am right here for you, and Iam not going anywhere."
I told him truthfully while placing another kiss on his cheek to which he closed his eyes and a tear escaped his eyes.
"You know? You don't look hot when you're crying." I joked trying to ease the tension but he just kept looking at me with his cold yet soft eyes.
"No! You're not even laughing now, well I will make you laugh later, I'll aid you first... Bring it here." I patted my lap but he didn't bring his hand.
He didn't talk much, just said what he needed for me to know, "Your clothes, blood" he said pointing to his hands.
"I'll change them, now..... Here." I said picking up his arm and placing it on my lap.
His warm blood was oozing on my dress and I could feel his blood from the sheet of my dress.
A tear left my eye and he looked at me worridly, "Don't look at me like that, why did you do this to yourself huh? You wanted to fight, punch something, go punch a flipping pillow, don't do this to yourself. " I said pouting and bandaging his hand.
"Iam sorry Rozella, I didn't mean to make you worried" he said with no expression, just his cold blue eyes staring back at me.
