Come With Me novel Chapter 8

Rogelio's room has become the only shelter for me in the world.

I sat on the bedside of Rogelio and looked at the bruise on his leg caused by me. "I'm sorry, Rogelio. I almost hurt you today."

Rogelio lay there quietly. He was the only person who didn't have any expression on his face to me.

At that moment, I couldn't help but cry to Rogelio.

I curled up my legs and put my feet on Rogelio's bed, with my hands holding my legs.

"My father eloped with another woman when I was a child. Since my brother is a boy, my grandparents took him to their home for care, and left me alone to my mother. "

"My mother used to have nothing to do, and often left me alone at home. At that time, I was hungry every day."

"In order to go to school and not suffer from hunger, I picked up the water bottles, abandoned paper shells, and I also sold popsicles on the street..."

I was about to burst into tears, but I managed to hold them back.

"In order to pay my tuition, I only have two meals every day, and sometimes I only have one steamed bun. But even so, my mother came back occasionally because of losing all her money, and then she would take away my hard-earned tuition..."

"I don't know how I have endured all these years. No one could understand how I felt when I grew up in fear with my mother. They said that I married you for your money. In fact, no one wants a warm family more than me..."

There were two knocks on the door. I wiped the tears with the back of my hand and quickly got out of Rogelio's bed. "Come in."

The door was pushed open. I didn't expect that Robbie would show up at the door.

He glanced at me and then looked at Rogelio.

Robbie walked gracefully to the bedside and took a look at the sleeping Rogelio. Then he put a small bottle on the night table with his right hand in his hand.

"You can use this medicine on where Rogelio injured."

Robbie turned around and took a glance at the bruises at my ankles, "sure, you can use it too."

My heart skipped a beat at that moment. I couldn't help but want to hide my hands.

No one in the Luo family cared if I was hurt too. Since my father eloped with another woman, no one has shown any concern about me.

It's funny that I was touched by Robbie's small action.

And the most pathetic part was that I felt appreciate and uncomfortable at the same time as I had never been cared.

After leaving the medicine, Robbie was about to leave, but the wheelchair next to him stopped him again.

His slender fingers swept across the back of the chair of the wheelchair, and his deep voice rang in the room like a subwoofer. "You are really easy to hurt Rogelio alone. Next time you can ask Leo for help, he will help you."

Robbie moved his finger off the wheelchair and was really out of my sight.
