In fact, it wasn't that Vera's reflex was slow, but rather, she was just thinking about something else, so she reacted slightly slower.

She looked at Quill feeling wronged.

He froze for a moment looking at her expression, then suddenly sighed.

He didn't expect time to pass so fast. That little girl of his had already become the mother of two children, and he had also become a father.

He, who once thought that it was impossible for him to get married in his lifetime, had a family then.

Thinking of that, he reached out and pulled her into his arms. Then, he rubbed her forehead which was being pained from his knock earlier gently. "I'm sorry. I was a little anxious just now. Is it very painful?"

She didn't expect him to apologize to her and even rub the wound for her. She was a little surprised for a while, but she greedily stayed in his embrace.

She wanted to nestle in his arms, but was afraid that his body was still too weak, so she shook her head while still half leaning on him and said, "It's not painful. If it really hurts, how could I have reacted so slowly?"

She was afraid that he would blame himself, so she said it didn't hurt.

With the softness of his fingers, as he gently rubbed her forehead, the pain from earlier had long since disappeared.

After that, Vera thought of something again. She looked up at him and asked, "You just woke up. Do we really not need to call the doctor to check on you? After all, you have a concussion. Although it's just a slight one, I think you should still get checked."

No matter what, she was extremely worried.

Quill looked at her and thought that she would not be at ease if they did not have the doctor to come look at him, so he nodded in agreement.

"Well, I'll have to trouble you to call the doctor over for me then."

"How is that a trouble?" She glared at him and pouted. "I am your wife. What are you talking about?"
