Chapter 130: As If You’ve Met Her?
"Yeah, I know you must have a few screws loose in that big head of yours. Now it feels normal hearing this stuff from you."
Squeezing his right cheek tenderly with his other hand, Kylian responded in an amicable tone before he grabbed a first-aid box he had prepared. Sitting next to Zenith on the bed, Kylian took his arm which till had that deep cut on his palm, but the wound now looked a little clean after taking the shower.
Grabbing out the medicinal bottle Kylian had picked from the nurse’s office in the academy which had a magical healing effect on any kind of deep wounds, which he had witnessed using that nurse to treat Stephan’s wounds from the beating before.
Kylian soaked a cotton swab and started to disinfect his wound with a brief warning to Zenith before, "It might sting a little, so try to endure the pain now and don’t create a commotion."
"Well...if it hurts very much, you could give me a kiss every time to comfort me at least—"
"Shut up, or I might really press your cut now."
By now Kylian had formed a habit of getting flustered by Zenith’s comments since he was too shameless to show any kind of restraint, without considering any kind of situation. However, Kylian was too tactful in disinfecting his wound and made sure Zenith wouldn’t feel much hurt during the process.
After he had finished up with the initial process, he wrapped the bandage tightly on his palm, and all this time Zenith couldn’t stop staring softly at his solemn face fully focused on his wound. After Kylian finished tying up the bandage, he gently held his palm in between his both hands while asking Zenith intently, "Is the bandage very tight? Does your hand hurt more?"
"No, it is perfectly fine." Quite impressed by his skills of tending injuries, Zenith rolled his affectionate gaze at him while asking curiously, "Sweetie, you should’ve enrolled in a Medicine college. You’re just too good, like a professional."
"Don’t exaggerate." Kylian felt quite pleased by his compliment inside, but on the outside, he didn’t express much other than a snort, "It’s nothing much to be praised so much—"
"Of course it is! You might not be aware of how special are you...but for me...everything about you is absolutely surreal, Kyle." Holding onto Kylian’s hand, Zenith professed his heartfelt answer in a loud, ardent tone which made him a bit flustered.
