Chapter 57: Just One Word: Thanks
Blood and dirt washed down the sink together. Even when water hit the open wound, Ha Giyeon didn’t so much as flinch. His legs simply trembled, weak and unstable beneath him.
Choi Mujin tightened his grip around Giyeon’s waist, steadying him so he wouldn’t fall. After thoroughly rinsing both knees, Mujin narrowed his eyes at the deeper cut on the right one.
“This looks torn.”
So that’s why it kept bleeding—it wasn’t just a scrape. He helped Giyeon sit down on the cot and began pressing gauze against the wound to stop the bleeding.
“You need to go to the hospital. You’ll need at least two stitches.”
“...”
“So who the hell made you fall this bad?”
“...I just tripped. On my own.”
As Giyeon tried to stand, Mujin panicked and blocked him.
“Wait until the nurse gets back. You’ve got to go to the hospital anyway.”
“I don’t need to go. I’ll be fine with a bandage.”
“The hell are you talking about? What part of that mess looks like it’ll be fine with just a bandage? Are you out of your mind?”
