The touch was so gentle that it felt like he was touching something very precious to him.
"I know, my wife, I know. Just breathe, alright? I won't move for now," he said though it felt like he was in pain to wait. "Come on, breathe with me. One... two... yes, good girl. I don't like to see you in pain, my wife. Now it makes me feel bad that I can't help."
But he was already helping a lot. His soothing words and touch were truly magical. It felt like the pain was going away though an unpleasant burning feeling was still there.
"Are you feeling better?" he asked.
"Hmm."
"Should I move then?"
"Y-Yes," I said.
He breathed an air of relief as he started to move gently. But the pain was there and every time he moved, the burning sensation increased.
"It still hurts, doesn't it?"
"Hmm."
"I'll finish quickly," he sighed.
