“I apologize for bothering you once again…”

Arlan would say, his eyes slightly looking away, as you started to wrap his wounds around with bandages. Poor boy. He often got hurt by…well, too many things you can’t keep count. For example, mean bullies once started to hurt him, and although he defeated them, he was still badly injured.

Just like now.

He just didn’t want you to be disappointed in him by getting into so many fights. His heart would break if you had. Only you.
