"Hey, how come when you get involved with someone, it always ends with a disaster?" Kelvin glanced at Gilbert's bloodstained chest, then looked at Kisa meaningfully.
Kisa stood by with her eyes downcast, her face expressionless. She knew the 'someone' Kelvin mentioned was her. But she did not care, as Kelvin did not like her, anyway.
Gilbert was depressed and walked straight into the house without a word. Kisa followed in silence.
Kelvin stared in wonder as the two went and then asked Davian, "What's going on with them?"
Davian sighed helplessly. "People say that two stubborn people are not suitable together; this is so true."
Kelvin was none the wiser. "What do you mean?"
"Ask Mr. Kooper. It's been a tiring trip." With that, Davian drove off in his car.
In the bedroom--
Kelvin marveled as he tended to Gilbert's wound. "This is a deep wound. If it was just a bit off, I would have to visit you at your grave this time next year."
Gilbert still said not a word, his expression tense, looking bitter and serious with his lips curving down.
Kelvin shot a glance at him and mustered his courage. "I didn't know that she is so ruthless. It seems that she really wants you dead."
Gilbert buttoned up his shirt with annoyance. "Get out of here when you're done with the wound. You're so verbose."
Kelvin pouted. "Look how irate you are. You are not really getting attached to that woman, are you?"
