You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 241

Nina's thoughts were brought back by the pain in her wrist. Instead of blaming John for her pain, she softly called him, "Honey..."

Since Nina called John honey in the BL Mountain, he had always asked her to call him honey. Most of the time, Nina felt uncomfortable and was reluctant to do so.

She hadn't got used to calling him in this way.

She would call him honey only when there was nobody else around. She wouldn't do so if there was an outsider.

At this moment, only John and Nina were in the ward. Nina called John honey again, with blinking eyes full of grievance.

John was shocked when he woke up and found that the person in front of him was Nina. At the same time, he felt guilty.

He pulled Nina and made her stay in his arms. Then he loosened his grip on her wrist and held her tightly.

Nina's fragrance rushed into his nose. He felt at ease with Nina in his arms. Thinking of what happened a moment ago, he felt guilty.

'What did I do just now?'

'How can I hurt her?'

John held Nina more tightly in his arms. He whispered in her ear, "I'm sorry."

He dreamed of what happened on his ten-year-old birthday.

On that day, a gangster sneaked into the Shi family. John was held hostage. His head was pressed into the pool and even poked by wood.

He almost drowned.

He was just a kid then and wasn't able to resist the strength of an adult. At that time, he felt that his life would come to an end soon.

At the last moment, he struggled to fight back.

In a panic, he found a plastic knife that was used to cut the cake. He raised his head from the water with all his strength and stabbed the gangster to death.

The spraying blood stained his whole body. He held the knife tightly, trembling slightly. The blood on the knife fell on the ground bit by bit.

Since then, he had been afraid of water.

He not only feared water, but also had nightmares if it rained heavily.

If anyone approached him when he had a nightmare, his first reaction was to end the person's life.

He subconsciously knew that the person sleeping next to him was Nina, so he could only grab her wrist. However, he was still full of vigilance and coldness.

"Honey, I'm sorry." John whispered in Nina's ear in a low and trembling voice.

A gentle kiss fell on her hair.

Nina wouldn't blame John. She poked her head out of his arms and rubbed her head against his chin. She kissed the corner of his mouth and said, "Since you have said sorry, I forgive you."

John moved his body, reached out his hand and took the right hand of Nina. He saw that her wrist was red.

He sighed slightly, feeling sad because he had hurt Nina.

"Nothing. I'll be all right soon." Taking back her hand, Nina lay in John's arms, pulled the quilt and covered themselves with it. She closed her eyes and said, "Let's sleep. Don't be afraid. I'm with you."

John looked down at Nina and smiled, with gentle eyes.

"Don't you have anything to ask me?" John asked.

"No." Nina shook her head.

Nina knew that John would tell her what had happened when he wanted to do so.

Besides, he just had a nightmare. He would have to recall the painful experience again if Nina asked him anything about the nightmare.

Nina didn't want to force him to talk about the nightmare.

John knew that Nina was sensible and caring. He didn't know whether it was good or bad.

In fact, he preferred Nina to be willful.

"Honey, I love you." Holding Nina in his arms, John slowly closed his eyes.
