Anna Jadwin squatted in front of him, applying medicine while she couldn't help but shed tears.
Wayne Bailey could sometimes be so stubborn that not even nine oxen could pull him back...
He said he wanted to walk back to The Baileys' Manor, and he really did walk back in the heavy snow, even deliberately choosing the more difficult paths, didn't he?
He was doing it to spite her! Falling so many times yet insisting on continuing.
Throughout the entire process of applying the medicine, Wayne Bailey didn't utter a word, his eyes still vacant.
But he kept his head down, breathing in the direction of her head, his warm breath on the top of her head. Every time she got up to go to the bathroom, she could always see him following her upon turning around.
Anna Jadwin carefully bandaged him up and had a servant bring over a pair of high-prescription glasses.
She wasn't sure how severe Wayne Bailey's nearsightedness was, but they would have to do for now.
