"So you are a polar bear living like a normal human..."
"That is right if you except some details... I'm sorry!"
"What kind of details?"
"I like fish very much!" the white bear confessed to the girl laying on the coach in front of him.
*He is so cute.*, Elga thought with a like blush on her cheeks from excitement.
"Well this is not that strange! A human can like eating fish too!" the brunette girl added, trying to raise his spirit.
Bepo smiled at the girl and a happy expression took place on his face.
In the meantime, Law who was resting his body on the armchair a few meters away from the other two, had woken up and observed silently the girl's behavior.
He indeed wanted to meet and have a talk with her for a long time since their first acquaintanceship but he wasn't like the person who could trust someone blindly. He was feeling like he had a great responsibility for whatever may happen as he was the one who brought her inside their house. He still knew nothing about this girl and couldn't ever bear the thought of her hurting his beloved friends.
Law rubbed his temple in an effort to ease the headache and forget about the negative thoughts.
The young doctor glanced at the girl who was petting Bepo now, for one last time before he stood up.
*She doesn't seem like a bad person though.*
Then, he walked towards them and stood behind his furry mate.
The girl and Bepo hadn't noticed him so Law coughed in order to catch their attention.
"Ahhh, Law! You are awake! Did you rest well?" the polar bear asked turning his head to face him.
"I'm fine. Go back to your room and get some rest too! Thank you for looking after our patient."
After that Bepo nobbed in agreement, said goodbye to the girl and went obediently back to his room.
"Such a well behaved bear!" the girl commented still laying on her spot.
"He is nice." Law answered briskly.
The girl understood by Law's body language and responses that he wasn't as friendly as the bear so she changed her attitude into a more aloof one.
"I need to check on the wounds."
"I believe I'm fine..." the girl said and tried to get up from the coach but a harsh pain hit her hard and sat back again groaning in pain.
"You should be more careful or else the stiches will open and I'm not going to save your ass for a second time. You already gave me enough trouble..." Law warned her.
"Well it wasn't like I asked you to save me at first place... I'm a pretty skilled doctor and I could have 'saved my ass' when I regained consciousness."
"What kind of a 'skilled doctor' hasn't already made the right diagnosis for themselves?", Law answered in a sarcastic tone on his voice, looking right through her dark brown orbs, piercing her very soul with his cold gaze.
"You broke your back girl and you should thank me for moving your legs around that fast."
"Broke my back?!"
"That is right... as well as the place between your anterior superior iliac spine and pelvic brim, damaging your sciatic nerve. You were pretty lucky I managed to fix that on time." the boy added, emphasizing the last sentence.
"Wait, wait... You are telling me you made such a dangerous surgery in a house under no sterile conditions with a remarkably high percentage of success and you want me to believe you and trust you?!"
"Tsk..." the young boy clicked his tongue in annoyance as he hoped he didn't have to explain about his secret powers to her.
*Volff told me it's better not to talk about my fruit with strangers. I can't trust her yet.*, he thought and prepared his answer.
"I was very careful and kept everything clean... There was no other choice and you should be grateful you are even alive!" he said showing an expression of clear annoyance and exhaustion due to the girl's questions.
"Well thank you but if it was such a pain for you why did you even got into all this trouble for me?" Elga kept eye contact with the young doctor standing in front of her, never blinking even once. "What do you want for exchange?"
A smirk took place on Law's lips and he walked towards the table to reach a pair of medical gloves. He hold them and tried to put them on his hands thinking of the answer. He had already thought of it before, even while doing the surgery on the girl behind him but he still wasn't sure if it's the correct one. That time he knew he just had to save her but still he doesn't feel like the reason was in regard to the obligation over her. Was he that... interested on her?
*Facts are facts Law. Don't overthink again... Emotions are for naïve people.*
"You sure make a lot of questions... It's just give and take. I owed you for that time and felt like saving you for exchange." he answered taking a chair and sitting right beside her.
Elga tilted her head for reaction, having a puzzled expression on her face.
"That time? Owe me?"
That response found Law out of guard and a shocked countenance replaced the previous blank one. He couldn't help but sweat drop because of the girl's short memory and cough to collect himself.
*That idiot... She doesn't even remember me. After getting into all this trouble for her...*
"You gave me your onigiris about 9 months ago..." he tried to explain in an effort to make her recall the events.
"Ahhh! Yeah right... you are that asshole!" she replied in a teasing tone with a devilish look on her eyes.
Law gritted his teeth in anger.
"You were the one who got in my way idiot!" he barked.
"And you were the one who brought me here!" she yelled back at him.
"You would have been dead by now!"
"I never asked you to care about my life!"
Law was now standing on his feet and Elga was doing the same on the coach, reaching the boy's height.
"I owed you and as a man I had to free myself from an obligation over another person!", Law replied and looked right at her eyes to make her realize it was about time to stop acting like a kid and accept the treatment. He just needed to fulfill this duty and she was free to go whenever she liked. He was a doctor after all and he would never leave a patient go without his remediation ends first.
Elga left a groan of pain as she pushed her body's limits too much. Not many hours had passed since the surgery on her back and she was already standing.
Law grabbed her shoulders and helped her lay back on the coach again.
He looked again at her face searching for a sight or an expression which revealed pain. However, he couldn't help but stare at the girl's beautiful face in front of him. Faint freckles on her nose and under her eyes, dark brown orbs sending you a warmth feeling and light cherry red lips.
The girl touched his hand and this sense brought him back to reality making him realize how close to her body he was standing. He then made a few steps back and sat again on the chair.
Elga glanced at him and saw a softer look on his eyes.
*Maybe I should just put my selfishness back for now and let him help. I really messed up this time and he doesn't seem to have bad intentions.*
"Alright, I will do the treatment. You seem like a doctor that knows his job and I can trust." the girl answered and smiled at the young boy.
Law gave her a smile too, feeling satisfied by her decision.
