Chapter 41 Confession Of True Feelings (Part One)
"Bill, you were just bitten by a poisonous snake. I can't let you carry me no more." Euralia refused firmly.
"No, the road is too slippery. I am worried about you." Bill carried her on his back insistently.
She felt sorry deep in her heart. He was always so bossy, but all he did was for her good.
He was so good to her that she did nothing to ease the burden of her brother, and she just threw a tantrum.
"Bill, you must tell me if you are tired." She lit up the road with the cellphone handed from him.
If it were not for Euralia, Bill would not have been able to stand the pain. He could do anything for her.
The place where was bitten by the poisonous snake just now hurt like a bone was smashed. But he didn't put her down. Instead, he gritted his teeth and stepped forward.
However, he began to slow down his speed, which was noticed by Euralia.
"Bill, I'm a little thirsty. Let's sit down and have a rest." She knew his temper very well. If she asked him to put her down, he might turn her down again.
Bill didn't put her down to have a sit until he found a few big leaves and put them on the ground. It was difficult to burn wood because of the rain just now, but now when the rain stopped, there was some dry sticks under the tree.
He found some firewood and took out the lighter to light up the land.
"Wait a moment here, and I'll get some water for you."
"But where are you going to find water?" There were trees all over this area. Except for some puddles left by the heavy rain, it was not easy to find clean water.
"Don't worry. It won't take long."
"No, thanks. I'm not thirsty. I just want to have a rest." Under the light, Euralia saw clearly his embarrassed look. She didn't want him to continue to suffer because of her.
"You have a fever and need to drink more water. Stay here and wait for me. I'll be back soon." With the phone in his hand, he headed for another direction of the forest.
Seeing his figure disappearing in the darkness, Euralia felt even more sad.
"Bill, I'm sorry. It's all my fault." Her tears dropped, and her heart was full of guilt.
When Bill came back with water, he found that Euralia had fallen asleep on his suit. He took a big leaf with a lot of water in it and put it aside for the time being. He worried that she might be hungry and caught a fish.
And he was finally relieved to see her sleeping. Worrying that she would be cold, he went to find more wood. He took care of her with all his heart until she woke up.
"I'm thirsty." Her forehead was still burning.
He carefully held up the leaf and helped her to drink the water.
"Bill, when did you come back?" With her vision becoming clearer, Euralia stared at him and asked.
"I've been back for a long time. Are you feeling better?" After she drank the water, he reached out and wiped her mouth.
"I feel much better. But how could we walk out of this forest now?" Looking at this boundless forest in the darkness, Euralia knew that it was hard for them to tell which direction they should go, and a shiver ran down her spine.
"Or we can wait here until dawn." He found that they were heading in another wrong direction.
"Bill, is there any signal in your phone? Should we call someone else to save us?" Euralia reminded.
"My phone fell into the water when I went to get water. It's gone." Bill replied.
"My cellphone is power off." She took her phone out of her pocket and looked desperate.
After that, it would be more difficult for them to walk out of this forest.
He knew what was on her mind, so he comforted her at once. He sat next to her and held her in his arms.
"Trust me. I'll definitely take you out to the safe place."
She threw herself into his arms and began to cry.
"You will always be my good brother."
His eyes grew dim immediately, but he didn't say much. He just reached out to touch her little head to comfort her.
Euralia held onto his arm and smelled the blood. She raised her head hurriedly and looked at his arm. Some parts of her white shirt were cut and there were wounds in her arm.
"Bill, why did your hand get hurt?"
"I was scratched by the grass on the roadside when I went to get water. It doesn't hurt." He smiled gently as he didn't want her to worry about him. He could bear any hardship on his own.
"It must hurt a lot, but you always said that it didn't hurt. Just like once I hurt you by accident in my childhood, but I cried even harder than you, and you said it didn't hurt at all."
Lowering her head, she felt that she owed her brother too much. She remembered the accident. At last, her brother stayed in the hospital for several days, but he did not tell her since he worried that she might blame herself.
In the end, Terri told her he had gone to the hospital, but he told her he was on a business trip.
"It's not a big deal for me." He covered all the pain on his body with such a simple sentence.
"You are always the best. You are not afraid of hardship or tiredness. You protect me well." She said in a lovely tone and threw herself into his arms again.
He habitually held her waist and kissed her on the forehead.
"Are you feeling better?"
"I'm much better. I just feel a little hungry." Her stomach was growling since she hadn't eaten anything for a day.
Bill picked up the fish around, took a stick and started to roast it.
"Wow, you are awesome. And you caught such a big fish." At the sight of the food, she temporarily forgot about getting out of the forest. She just stared at the roasted fish and kept swallowing. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
"You little foodie!" Bill touched her nose with a doting look.
"Bill, when we get back home, I want to eat a lot of delicious food that I like."
