When I sat upright, I felt a slight stinging sensation in my wrist. It was mostly numb most likely from the medication. It would have been better if it hurt a little more. Maybe then I could distract myself from the throbbing pain in my heart.
I squeezed my wrist and saw blood seep through the bandages.
I felt dismayed that the pain from my wrist could only distract me for a moment.
"...Arielle, I am coming in," Erik said as he entered my room. He soon ran over to me and grabbed my injured wrist and inspected it. "God, Arielle! You are bleeding again!"
"...I am fine. I just need to change out of my old bandages," I said as I pulled my arm back.
"...Arielle, please talk to me. I received news that you had hurt yourself," Erik said as he rubbed his head with his hand.
"You are good at feigning sympathy towards other people," I said coldly.
"Arielle?"
"You are such a liar, Erik," I said with a sigh.
"What are you talking about, Arielle?" Erik asked.
"...Our engagement had been long broken off," I said.
This is obviously a trick to see if Erik did lie to me since his actions had been so suspicious from the start.
