S31 178. Expelling Shania

“Philip, are my knees bleeding?” Barbara looked at her husband with trembling eyes, just like her voice. Both of her hands gripped Philip’s hand tightly.

“I don’t think so. It’s just a few scratches or bruises at most.”

“Is it true?”

Barbara dared to look down. However, before she could see the wound, Philip had carried her and sat her on a large rock.

“You don’t need to panic. I’ll treat your wounds, hmm?”

“My knees are bleeding, right?” Barbara’s tears began to clot. Before it dripped, Philip quickly wiped it away.

“Just a little. There was more blood at our first night.”

“That’s not funny, Philip.”

“But I said it as it is. Now be patient. After I treat it, the blood will stop coming out. You remember when I treated your finger that was cut by a knife, right? Something like that.”

After kissing Barbara’s forehead, Philip knelt down, opening the backpack. With a pale face, Barbara watched as Philip rolled up her trousers and treated her knees.

At that moment, Shania came with a dismissive laugh. “What’s going on? You’re crying because of a small wound?”

Barbara’s hands clenched tighter. Her eyes grew hotter when she saw Shania’s face.

“You can still laugh? Don’t you realize that I fell because of you?”

Shania stared wide eyed. Her finger poked at her own chest. “Me? When did I push you?”

“I tripped trying to get away from you! Can you stop following us? This is me and Philip’s honeymoon. We want to enjoy it together, just the two of us.”

Shania put on a sullen look. Sitting by Barbara’s side, she muttered, ” Sorry, I didn’t mean to disturb you.”

“Aren’t you tired of saying that?” Barbara’s face became increasingly

creased.

Shania blinked innocently. “Why should I be tired? That’s the reality. I feel like this trip will be more fun if we do it together.”

“You came here with Poppy. Why don’t you just be with her?”
