When Worlds Collide (Taynew)

episode ✍️ 3

Jake said, "Young master, let's go from here."

New replied, "But he's bleeding." Jake tried to stop him, but New approached Tay anyway.

New said, "Hey, you're bleeding. They’re also bleeding. Pond, get the first aid kit from the car, please."

Pond said, "Really, New? You were the one who wanted them to get out of here, but now you want them to be treated?"

New responded, "I just wanted them out of here, not fighting. They’re too injured. Call the ambulance to take them." Tay just stared at him in disbelief.

New said, "Come with me." Tay looked at New but didn’t move. New repeated, "Why did you have to beat them so much? Couldn’t you just tell them to leave? Now come with me."

Tay said, "Hmm."

Jake said, "Young master, where are you taking him? He fought all of them alone. He can take care of himself."

New insisted, "Don’t you see he's bleeding? Give me that first aid kit, I will bandage him."

Tay said, "You don’t need to. It's just a small cut."

New held Tay’s hand, and Tay stared at his hand being held by New. Then New said, "Come with me." He then led him to his car.

New said to Tay, "Sit here." Tay sat down, and New fetched the first aid kit from his car and started tending to Tay’s wound.

New asked, "Does it hurt?"

Tay replied, "It doesn’t."

New blew on the wound and applied the medicine. After he finished, he said, "Now it's done." Then he added, "You seem familiar to me. Oh, right, you're the one who saved me that day. I didn’t get to thank you then. You were also quite rude to me that day."

Jake intervened, "Saved you from what?"

New said, "Oops, P'Jake, please don’t tell anyone in the house about this."

Jake said, "What happened? Tell me now."

New recounted what happened that day. Jake said, "You take too many risks. This is why everyone worries about you. Now let's go home, it's already late. Everyone will be worried."

New nodded and said to Tay, "Don’t fight like that in the future. It will harm you and others." He smiled at Tay cutely, then got in the car, and they drove away.

Tay thought, "Is he really human or what? How can someone be this adorable and kind?"

Tay placed his hand on his bandage, mulling over why he had gotten so angry when he heard those boys talking to New like that. He also wondered why he hadn't refused when New insisted on bandaging him. Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, he decided to check if his men had finished their work on the land.

During the ride home, New pleaded, "Don’t tell anyone at home what happened in the canteen, P'Jake."

Jake replied, "We have to tell them."

"No, P', if we tell them, they will never let me go to the canteen again," New insisted.

"But I'm curious about that guy. I've never seen him before, and he looks strangely mysterious," Jake said.

"Stop guessing. He’s absolutely fine. He seems like a good guy," New responded.

Jake muttered, "In your eyes, everyone is a good guy."

New didn’t reply and opened his book in the car, reading quietly.

When they arrived home, New’s mom asked, "Did you have fun today?"
