Dangerously In Love (MiChaeng)

Chapter 43

As Momo raised her arm, Mina saw wounds that looks pretty serious. "Ya, you said you weren't hurt. Then what's this?" She grabbed it and pointed out the wound.

Momo pulled it back and tried to hide it. "Ah this? Nothing, don't mind this it's just a scratch." She said, smiling.

Mina knows that Momo has low pain tolerance and she's just bearing it. She sighed heavily then opened the door. "Come on in."

"Eh?"

"Wae? You don't want to?" Mina said raising her brows. "You're weird. You were very eager to come in before but now that I invited you, you don't want to."

"U—uhm it's not that. It's just so sudden. I'm just surprised that's all."

"I'm just going to treat your wounds so behave yourself." Mina went in leaving the door open. After a few seconds, Momo followed her inside. She sat on the couch and looked around.

"Wow, nothing's changed at all. I miss this place."

Mina ignored it and just went to get a glass of water and the first-aid kit. She gave the glass to Momo then sat beside her. "Give me your arm."

Momo didn't respond and just drank the water. Mina waited her to finish then grabbed her arm.

"Ouch! Slowly."

"Sorry." Then Mina held it more carefully. She examined it first then shook her head. "It hurts, doesn't it?" Momo nodded in response. "You're enduring it well. If this happened a few months ago you would've cried like a baby."

"Ya! I'm not a crybaby. I've changed now." Momo defended herself.

"I know. You've changed.....a lot." Mina replied in a cold/sad tone. Momo couldn't respond cause she knows it has a double meaning.

Then there was an awkward silence. Mina is now putting medicine on the wounds, one on the elbow and one on the wrist.

"Oouch!!" Momo complained. Mina immediately blew it to ease the pain.

That was a chance for Momo to stare at her, at the face that she missed a lot. Mina noticed and looked at her, their eyes met. They stared at each other for full five seconds, then Mina shifted her eyes.

She then put bandage on it making Momo groan. "Can you please be a bit more careful?"

"You still complain a lot. If you didn't save me, this wouldn't have happened to you."

"Then you would've been hurt instead. I would rather be in pain than see you hurt." Momo replied in a sincere tone.

"You've hurt me a lot of times already and now you're saying that?"

Momo didn't respond. Mina got up, took the first-aid kit and returned it.

"You should go." She said as she looked at Momo still sitting with her head down. There was no response so she repeated it. "You should go now Momi-ssi, it's late. Aunt will worry about you."

Momo hid her face and wiped her cheeks before raising her head. "Uh? Ah yeah." She got up and grabbed her bag. "Thank you for this." She said, pertaining to Mina treating her wounds.

Did she cry? Mina thought as she examined Momo's expression. "Sure."

"And also, sorry about earlier, if I yelled at you."

"It's okay, I understand. And thank you for saving me. I would've been in the hospital right now if it weren't for you." Mina said.

"No problem." Momo replied with a sad smile on her face. "You know I will do everything for you."
