"Is that why you were so determined to kill me that day?" Thea asked with a chuckle.
Marc laughed, and then he answered, "I guess so."
"Do you really promise to look after me, like you promised?"
Marc sighed heavily and then said, "I'm doing it. Do you still doubt my words?"
Thea gave Marc no answer.
Thea gave Marc her full attention to a wound on Marc's right shoulder. The stab wound from the assault on the villa still left several drops of blood leaking on the blue shirt that Marc had been wearing.
"I'm sorry you got hurt again because of me," she said to Marc.
Thea opens one by one of Marc's shirt buttons and then removes the sleeve, exposing Marc's right side.
"I'll do it anyway. No matter what happens." Marc stated.
After giving Marc a nod, Thea closes her eyes, slowly wiping a puncture wound over Marc's right shoulder.
