Struggling to lift her eyelids, Gina saw a familiar face from her blurred vision, and a man’s gentle voice came to her ears. As if all the burdens were lifted, she felt tired and it was time to get a good night’s sleep.
After she opened her lips and vaguely shouted “Aaron”, she felt her last ounce of strength being taken away and fainted in Aaron’s arms.
Aaron rarely holds her in his arms like this, this woman looks like she has breasts and buttocks, how come she is so light to hold, like a light feather that will float away if she lets go.
Looking down at the sleeping face of the woman in his arms. The still beautiful features still moved no matter how many times they were seen. Her eyelashes were covered with undried tears, her plump lips had scars from torn teeth, and her face was pale without a trace of blood. Carefully ruffling the broken hair in front of the person’s forehead with his fingertips, Gina’s tightly knitted brow suddenly made him feel a pang of heartache.
It was as if he held his heart in one hand and clutched it tightly, allowing an almost painful sensation to seep outward in wisps.
Carefully settled her in the back seat of the sedan, sitting in the driver’s seat, Aaron looked through the rearview mirror, the woman’s small body shrunk into a ball, like a small beast clinging to self-defense, a pang of indefinable sadness in his heart.
When the sedan was halfway down the road, the cell phone placed in the right storage basket vibrated. Aaron continued to hold the steering wheel with his left hand, while his right hand picked up the phone and pressed it to his ear, “Hello?”
“Aaron, when are you coming back.” Delilah’s soft and sticky pampered voice came from that part of the microphone, like a good and cute little cat all the time.
Hearing the woman’s pouting voice over the phone, Aaron’s tightly locked brows soothed a few points. Although he didn’t like being controlled, he was able to understand and make a soft explanation for the care from the woman he loved, “Something happened to Gina, no one can take care of her now, I’ll go back later.”
“So is she okay,” Delilah’s tone became a bit anxious, even her speech became a bit rapid, “Or should I go take care of her, she can’t stay alone.”
Pausing for half a second, as if afraid that Aaron would not agree, the caller spoke again and added: “It will be convenient for girls to take care of girls.”
“Good.” Aaron opened his lips and agreed in a slow voice. At such a moment that had his mind in turmoil, Delilah had taken the initiative to come and take care of Gina, regardless of her former grudge, what a sensible and reassuring gesture. This made him feel extraordinarily relieved, and from the bottom of his heart, he felt compassion for Delilah – such a good girl.
Gina’s home is not far away, Aaron is very familiar with this place, he has countless times with this woman here to go to the witching hour.
Carefully placing the woman in his arms on the bed, he pulled a quilt over her with his hands and prepared to leave. Aaron’s waist was suddenly held by a pair of arms, and the woman’s soft sobs came from her ears.
Unpleasant frown, thought it was the woman woke up to use this way to organize his departure, how thoughtful. But he turned his head only to find that the Gina on the bed showed no signs of waking up at all, her eyes were tightly closed and her face was pale, only to receive the arms holding his waist tighter, her whole face rubbing against his back to stick to it.
“Mom… mom …” Gina let out a dreamy cry, her voice tinged with sadness and supplication. Behind her there was some kind of liquid dense through his shirt on his waist, was it her tears.
It was only after a long time that a slow sigh came out of her throat, Aaron raised his hand to hold onto Gina’s wrist, intending to rip his body out from between her arms. As her posture changed, Gina’s sleeves shifted up slightly, revealing an arm that would have looked like a jade root – if not for the few red traces.
Aaron also saw the red marks on her small arms, like left by the belt, printed on the white skin distinctly, and there were even a few faint bumps oozing blood.
The heart was shocked, things seemed to be more serious than he had thought. The man pursed his lips tightly, and lowered his eyebrows to take off the clothes that had shattered into wisps on her body, intending to check out how serious Gina’s injuries really were.
And breaking into Delilah, she saw just such a scene –
The man she loves was in the right place was undressing the woman on the bed that he had always said he hated, in a gentle and mild Delilaher.
The handbag slipped from her hands at once and fell heavily on the ground. Unbelievably looking at the two people with ambiguous postures in front of her, Delilah squirmed her lips and couldn’t say a word.
“Delilah, it’s not what you think.” Seeing the pale face and desperate look of the person at the door, Aaron hurriedly stopped the movement in his hand.
Delilah’s shoulders shrugged slightly, her small nose twitched, and her voice trembled a little: “Stop.”
No one noticed the movement of the woman on the bed.
The autumn temperature wasn’t too high, and the cool air wrapped around Gina’s exposed arm as she finally languished under the stimulation of her skin’s senses.
She herself was actually not wearing any clothes! Gina’s brain went blank, instinctively pulling over the quilt by her side and covering herself quickly.
Lifting her dizzy head, Gina half-expected to see the two people standing in the room, the two people who could terrify her the most.
