"Young master!!!" Alix exclaimed in shock and stood up.
How could he!! she thought, in her mind.
Caishen chuckled and shook his head, it was such fun to tease her. He liked that her emotions and reactions were so easy to read. She was such an open book.
"What are you thinking?" he asked her.
"That I should stay away from you, ooh, you are such a dangerous man." she replied with a playfulness in her voice.
He turned his wheel chair around, but not before saying to her, "You really overthink things. I was looking at your fingers, you are not wearing the glove today."
She looked down at her fingers and smiled jubilant in her heart because she could feel them again. She had pinched them last night, flexed them as much as she could and kissed them a dozen times or so.
Even though the Pinches hurt, it was a sweet kind of pain because it meant her fingers were finally healing.
