As Cai entered the room after a brief knock, he grimaced. "At least you had the sense to put it under cool water. How's your thigh? Let me see the burn."
Without another word after that moved closer to inspect the wound while bringing out his first aid kit. He donned gloves and then applied the medicine while shaking his head and muttering," Its a good thing that I cooled it a bit before giving it to you. Or you would have burnt yourself. At least now, its only a little burn. It will trouble you for a few days and then it will be fine.
Dora, on the other hand, paid no attention to his muttering and watched him intently, her eyes lingering on the finger marks on his neck. "Did he hurt you?", she asked tentatively.
Cai looked up then and instead of answering her question, told her "Given that he almost became my uncle, I decided to let it slide and didn't hurt him."
