I Was Given a Political Marriage

23 – Tender Assistant (2)

How much time had passed instead. I was left unseen for quite some time.

‘How long do I have to stay like this?’

I don’t know the exact time, but it was clear that it had been in this state for a long time.

But no matter how much I waited, she wouldn’t release the blindfold, and I was waiting for a long time tied up like this.

“Eileen? Are you there?”

does not exist. It was until roughly a few hours ago when I played with my skin with my fingernails, but at some point it disappeared with a sign.

If you still wriggle your body, your arms are tied, and you can’t unfasten them.

‘I’m thirsty, it’s cold… It must be breathing out of your mouth by now.’

As winter approaches, the inside of the dormitory gets quite cold without heating.

It was too hard to endure the cold with light clothes without a stove.

“Ugh… Eileen… I’m sorry. It’s cold.”

His neck was like a dry, dry land, and his lips quivered as if he was about to face death.

‘I won’t die, but the body aches are certain.’

I couldn’t even resist anymore, and rather, I was in a situation where only tears came out because my strength was exhausted.

My mind was getting hazy, and all I could hear was a growling sound from my stomach.

Cold, hungry, thirsty, and dying.

‘just… I should have just obeyed Aileen’s words.’

Even if I regretted it now, nothing would change. What if you became a fiancé who only listened to her in the first place?

Then maybe this wouldn’t have happened now.

Rather, we should be lying together in a warm bed by now.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry… I’m really sorry.”

In such a sudden treatment, I can’t even say anything anymore.

“Huh, huh, cool. Cool.”

The coughing doesn’t stop, it must have been a cold.

‘I just want to lie down in a warm bed. I don’t need all of them, just that’s enough.’

I miss Eileen’s arms, who always warmly hugged me from behind.

A warm embrace on top of a cold blanket. I missed that warm embrace that I had never felt from my mother.

‘If I just wake up again…’ I hope all of this is over.’

Xian closed his eyes from the cold that kept coming.

***

I dreamed with a hazy mind. A dream of being with someone on a lawn in sunny weather.

I was giving someone a lap pillow, quietly stroking their hair and looking down lovingly.

“good?”

“Yeah… I’m happy Xian.”

I stroked the hair of the unknown person for a long time, then lowered my head and kissed him.

At that moment, the hazy surroundings slowly settle into a new place and become clearer.

The warmth that I had only dreamed of was covering my whole body, and I was hugged by someone with half tears in my eyes.

“You have a fever. Xian, can you hear me?”

“Haa… I’m sorry. I’m sorry Eileen.”

“He’s broken. Stay still, he’s getting a fever.”

I don’t know since when, but I was released from all restraints, and I was cared for with a warm blanket and a wet towel on my head.

‘Is it Eileen? Since when?’

“Don’t say sorry. It’s right for me to take care of my fiancé.”

She, who had been angry until just now, was changing the wet towel with a gentle face as usual.

It seemed that my brain couldn’t keep up with the situation that was the exact opposite of how I had just been lonely and shivering in the cold.

To put it more simply, ‘Is it okay for me to be so happy all of a sudden, Master?’ My brain couldn’t accept happiness like this.

“Whoa, now that I’m awake, I need to eat.”

The small bowl Eileen handed over contained warm porridge.

The hot porridge felt on my legs. Just looking at the five-colored vegetables in the white porridge made my mouth water.

“No, what are you asking the patient to do? Whoa~ I’ll feed you, so open your mouth.”

“No, I’m going to eat alone… No. Ah~ Umm.”

The taste of the porridge that came into my mouth was so fantastic that I couldn’t describe it in words.

The taste of the porridge that came after the cold and hunger felt more valuable as it made me feel that I had overcome hardships.

Took.

Tears that flow without me knowing.

“Huh… Thank you. No, I’m sorry Eileen. You take care of me like this.”

“If you’re going to apologize, don’t say anything and eat porridge. I’ve said it before, but say something other than an apology.”

‘In other words…’

I know one thing. A word that Aileen asked me to do every day.

And the words that said it couldn’t be helped.

“I love you. Thank you.”

“Hmm, that’s enough. Again ah~.”

Maybe she was happy to hear that I love her, and she opened her spoon with an angelic smile.

As the porridge bowl became empty little by little, it felt like my heart was getting warmer as well.

And by the time I thought it was almost empty. Soon, the bowl was moved to another place, and freedom came to the body.

“Eileen, is it okay if I ask just one question?”

“What?”

Xian, who had finally come to his senses, asked her a question.

“Why are you being so nice to me?

“however?”

“But what? I punished you because I was angry… and you take care of me again.”

She always punished me when I was wrong. But when the punishment is over, she always embraces me with a kind smile and love.

Rather, such actions were more questionable. I couldn’t understand Eileen, who could take me by force but always get angry and caress me again.

“Sian, there is no reason for love. Just because you like me, you get angry and caress me again. And being angry is also about your behavior, not hating yourself, right?”

“still…”

“It’s okay if you don’t understand now. But if you can understand someday, that’s enough.”

‘I’m sorry…’

Someone thought about running away with another woman, even if it was just for a moment, but Aileen was thinking of me on the contrary.

That’s why he was punished, and it felt right for Eileen to be angry.

“Sian, and if you’re really sorry, always do this.”

Eileen hugged me and hugged me warmly.

Put your mouth next to your ear and whisper like you’re addicted.

“I love you. Just doing this will ease my anger.”

“Really…is this enough?”

“Yeah, I’m happy just hugging you saying I love you.”

At that moment, Xian’s stomach started to throb, and his eyes began to moisten again.

It was because when I felt Eileen’s pure love, I felt sorry for the past.

That’s why I hugged her tightly and whispered in the way Eileen just told me.

“I love you, Eileen. Thank you always. Really… I’m sorry. I love you.”

“Hmm~ Hug me tighter.”

As Xian hugged her tightly and whispered her love, Eileen let out a big breath and closed her eyes as if satisfied.

Cyan and Eileen, who hugged each other for a long time, turned their eyes to the side with a gloomy smile.

“succeded.”

“what?”

Eileen’s voice was too small for Xian to understand.

I tried to ask what he just said, but Aileen just buried her head in her shoulder without saying a word.

***

Eileen, who was hugged by Xian, made an expression that no one else had ever seen.

A dirty smile that would probably send a look of surprise or disgust if he saw it.

She couldn’t control her excitement, her breathing was rough, and she couldn’t stop the corners of her mouth from rising.

‘I love Xian. Xian is holding me tightly. I’m relying on it a little more.’

I was just thinking about it, but I was so happy to be heated from head to toe.

“succeded.”

“what?”

“never mind.”

It’s a success. I deliberately gave him a bigger punishment and imprinted on him that he was the only one.

He even accepted the punishment as if it were natural, and clung to it saying that he was the only one.

‘Mom is also because of this… you’re imprisoned hahahaha, I wasn’t in a position to say empty words either.’

I could see why she imprisoned her father.

this great satisfaction. And the anticipation that I might be completely dyed with my own.

The combination of the two to create a tremendous sense of uplift was like a drug that I couldn’t stop.

“Xian, let’s go to sleep now? It’s hard. Let’s get a good night’s sleep today and go to school together tomorrow.”

“Yeah… Thanks Eileen.”

He leaned against me tightly like a baby.

Like a cat that has finally recognized itself as its owner, it is revealing itself without fault.

‘driving me crazy. No, I can’t stand this.’

Eileen rubbed her thighs and bit her lower lip.

Secretly continuing to smell his body, she holds her face against her chest.

‘From then until now. I always love you Xian.’

In a room with the lights off, he recalled the past with his red eyes shining.

“what are you doing?”

“I was guarding the flower…”

In the past, when I hadn’t been engaged yet. It was the first time she invited Xian to the Estes family.

He opened his eyes wide in surprise at the Estes family he had never seen before, and Eileen at that time was bothered by all of this.

Young-sik is smart enough to play chess, but he’s not yet at the stage of feeling love…

“What kind of flower is this, why are you protecting it so desperately?”

“It’s just a violet. It’s the last flower left by my late father.”

Eileen, who is indifferent to other plants in the garden, but puts her heart and soul into only one flower.

Xian watches from the side.

The fate of these two people was decided in this small flower bed.
