Episode 56 - Tears of healing 2 'The Deep Night 2'

Another awkward silence followed with Aedelak constantly shifting her eyes between Louis and Ron, not knowing what to do, embarrassed to know that they have seen everything she did...

On the other hand, when she saw that the child younger than her was uncomfortably holding in his cough, she with no other choice took the initiative to break the silence. Turning around to re-tuck her sister's sheets, just like she did with Aernest, she then reluctantly walked over to Ron.

"KUKKH"

Ron coughed in embarrassment seeing Aedelak walking directly to his bed. He raised his hands up to stop her from coming closer, and to indicate that he was alright. That being said, he completely forgot about his upper body being cut up, and the physician's warnings to stay still that he ended up stretching his newly sutured chest, the pain hitting him at once.

"AH!"

Wincing from pain, Ron lowered his head, his whole face scrunching as he felt cold sweat start rushing out of his sweat glands.

Surprised, Aedelak paused by the end of Ron's bed.

"Would you like me to call someone Lord Ron?"

Aedelak worriedly asked, seeing Ron bring his hands to hover around his chest.

He shook his head in response to her, as the pain gradually faded away.

"....Would you like some water, Lord Ron?"

Aedelak asked again, seeing him recover his breath and exhaled out.

Ron automatically shook his head but thought about it again, and hesitatingly nodded. His throat was really parched and he indeed needed some water.

Seeing him nod, with the help of the night lights Aedelak slowly walked toward a small table where a jug of fresh water and cups were. Slowly pouring two cups of water, she used a tray to carry the two cups using her uninjured hand. Aedelak then headed back to Ron, and placed the tray on his night table, handing him his cup of water.

"Tha...nks"

Ron with difficulty thanked the older girl, not daring to look up towards her. Seeing water glistening with the night light, he gulped yearning for the beautiful looking water. However, because of his earlier actions, he hesitated to use his hands to accept the water, afraid that he would rip open his sutured chest.

Seeing Ron's eyes going from sparkly to sad, Aedelak also felt aggrieved for him. Understanding that he needed help, she brought the cup of water towards his lips, and with Ron's quick perception, he sipped his water in a rush!

"Slowly..."

Taking away the cup from him momentarily, Aedelak unconsciously sternly warned him.

Taking a glance at Aedelak from the corner of his eyes, he nodded, and carefully sipped his water again. Once he satisfied his thirst, Ron nodded again to indicate that he was done.

"Thank you..."

Ron sincerely thanked her, watching Aedelak help him go under his covers, tucking him like she did to Aernest and Aeselak.

"No problem Lord Ron"

Leaving Ron's half-empty cup on his night table, she picked up the tray containing the other cup of water and walked towards the patient next door. Without asking for permission to enter his vicinity she walked towards Louis' night table and put the tray down. Seeing him extend his hands, she picked up the cup of water and handed it over to him.
