With how gently he was handling her, Xavia—who had initially been in pain—couldn’t help but blush slightly as she replied, “…I-it’s fine… The pain isn’t that bad, and it’ll go away soon…”
Despite Xavia’s words, Zivon continued examining the rest of her body with utmost care… From the top of her head, to her neck, to her arms… To… the inside of her clothes…?!
“Hey, no wounds in there!” grumbled Xavia as she pulled her clothes closer to her chest. Wasn’t he just taking advantage of the situation?!
Upon hearing that, Zivon raised a slight brow as he replied, “…What, am I really that lecherous to you?”
…I-it was because he was paying such close attention to her entire body…! Now redder than a tomato, she was quick to say, “…E-either way, there aren’t any wounds on my body, so there’s no need to check there…!”
“…Sure,” muttered Zivon in a slightly helpless tone. Was there really a need to be this shy when he had already seen her full body before…? That aside, hadn’t they already kissed countless times…? Still, she already looked shy enough for him to refrain from teasing her.
Shaking the thought off, he then said, “Regardless, apply some medicine on those scratches before you have your breakfast…”
“…G-got it…” muttered Xavia as she did as she was told…
As she was eating, she couldn’t help but say, “…You know, since I can be discharged by noon, why don’t we have dinner together tonight? With Maison, Dr. Xenos, and Mr. Miller as well.”
She had already been planning to thank them before, but… To think that the plan would be delayed till the end of her second trip to the hospital…
Regardless, her suggestion reminded Zivon of Nathan’s words, and this prompted him to nod as he replied, “What do you feel like eating? I’ll get Nathan to make the arrangements.”
“No need for that. I plan to cook everything myself. After all, the meal is to thank Dr. Xenos and the others for the help they’ve given me throughout these trying times. With that said, wouldn’t the meal seem insincere if we just ordered outside food?” said Xavia.
“…Just focus on being sincere to me, alright?” replied Zivon, instantly making Xavia speechless.
