He stared at me, awaiting for my response. Moreover I glanced back at him with a slight nod, still not saying a word. He nodded as well, followed by him carefully putting the Icy Relief on my arm. It was parky and stung a little bit like a bee sting. After a while though,it really relieved the tension from the bruise.
He smiled slightly when he saw me ease up and that's when he took out his bandage wrap. He carefully grab my right arm, taking the bandage wrap and rolling it round and round my flesh.
He rolled it around until it was seemingly tight enough, cutting the leftover wrap when he was finished. "Thank you." I said quietly and he looked up at me in surprise. "You're talkin' again? I-that's great I was starting to worry honestly." "What were you worried about?" I asked curiously but still quiet.
He leaned against my door with his face going into something that resembled tiredness and genuine concern, "I'm worried about ye sláinte(health) and how ye feeling. You are never really this quiet with me and I fear it tis my fault." My eyes go a bit wide and I step a bit closer to him, his face going red as I observe him. "Ah-you, you are very close Victoria, it startled me a bit you."
He turned away becoming more reddish then ever, red as a sweet fruit even, I had no idea why. But I guess it was because of personal space? I stood back a bit. "Oh, sorry I didn't mean to get so close to you, that must make you uncomfortable right?" His innocent face pokes up at me and I can't tell what he's thinking inside.
I'm confused, I still feel upset but not as much as I was before. Because I'm contemplating on what Charles could be thinking, is it good or bad?! Why is he staring me?! "Victoria? Do you feel a bit better now? I know I already asked this but-you seem to be thinking of something..Am I right?!" He smiles brightly and I turn away slightly embarrassed, how did he even know that? Is he a mind reader?
Charles chuckles a bit, "Well either way I hope you are atleast a bit more in ease. And, with your Father. I will try not to ever let that happen again, I don't know if it was your Father for certain who did this. But I have a good feeling that it was." I don't say anything because I know he's right and I think he knows it too.
He sighs, "Well see you tomorrow Victoria! Can't wait to see you dance again, I only saw a bit but from what I can see you do excellent ballet you are the meilleur des meilleurs(best of the best) coquelicot(poppy)." I laugh a bit and before he leaves he embraces me lightly, "I thought you needed a bit of a h.hug um-Codladh sámh!(sleep well) I mean ah-!"
He dashed down the hall with more of a seemingly flustered face and I shrug feeling a greater since of relief. "I think I will have a good sleep Charles, atleast I think that's what you said.. " I roll my shoulders, heading to bed again, this time I have aspiration. This time I know I can do this.
