Love is the Sunshine

The place of the wound was a bit embarrassing. Carla had to treat it, or it might become infected. She hurt her back, and the injury was exactly beside the clasps of her bra.

"No, thanks. I'll deal with it by myself." Carla politely declined Noah's offer to help her with blushing cheeks. Taking some cotton swabs and iodine, she went into the cabin and drew the curtain across for privacy.

She took her phone out and pressed the front-facing camera on and leaned it against the wall, so she could see her back. Then she lifted her shirt to deal with the wound.

"Ouch!" She frowned as she fumbled with the clasps.

There was a trickle of blood from the wound down her back, and it hurt so much.

She dipped the cotton swab into the iodine solution and reached up behind her back. Carla clenched her teeth to stop herself from screaming, but she couldn't help let out a painful groan.

Girls are afraid of pain, and Carla was no exception.

"Are you all right? Need a hand?" inquired Noah with concern in his voice. He was waiting on the other side of the curtain.

"No, thanks!" answered Carla in haste. "I can manage it."

If Noah were a woman, she would have let him in to help her without any hesitation. But he wasn't. So she had to keep him at a distance.

Otherwise, it would raise Terence's blood pressure.

But to her surprise, regardless of what she said to him, Noah pushed aside the curtain and strode in towards her.

She was so shocked. 'Didn't he hear what I said?' thought Carla horrified. With eyes as wide as saucers she froze on the spot, not knowing what to do.

Carla was so astonished that she forgot to pull her top down.

Fortunately, Noah could only see her back and nothing more.

"Just be still and don't move around." Noah reached for the cotton swab and dipped it in the iodine solution and gently dabbed at the wound.

He then put a gauze on the bleeding wound.
