My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

We spent the rest of the day according to Anne's arrangements. Everything seemed to be calm and peaceful.

It was a little late when we got back home. Anne had fallen asleep leaning against Hendrix. It was normal for her to feel tired after walking for an entire day.

Perhaps it was because I had walked too much, the place where I sprained my ankle started to feel a little painful again.

This was probably a sequela!

After carrying Anne into the bedroom, he came out and saw that I was pouring water. He took the kettle from my hand and poured water into the basin. Then, he squatted down beside the basin to test the temperature of the water with his hand.

Feeling that it was a little hot, he turned around and poured some cold water into it. He untied the shoelaces for me. It was obvious that he wanted to wash my feet.

I was a little resistant, so I raised my hand to stop him. "I can do it myself."

He pursed his lips and looked at me deeply. "Your ankle hasn't completely recovered. After soaking, remember to massage your ankle with sprain ointment."

As he spoke, his slender fingers had already reached into the water. Some people's fates seemed to be preordained.

It seemed that I couldn't escape from him no matter how hard I tried.

As he massaged my ankles, I said, "There should be many things in Jarold City waiting for you to deal with. You have been here for so long. You should go back to have a look."

He looked up at me with deep eyes and asked, "So, you are asking me to leave?"
