A Life Debt Repaid
Cordy looked up to see that John was panting a little, and that he was flushing somewhat.
Pursing her lips, she lowered her gaze and washed her hands, pretending as if she saw nothing while John left.
However, she was quite distracted as she washed her fingers, as many images crossed her mindâ¦
Still, she soon turned off the tap, dried her hands and left the washroom.
John wasnât in, and she vaguely saw a silhouette at the walk-in closet.
Cordy headed over, entering it unhurriedly to find John changing.
He was wearing yet another pair of black boxers, almost the same size as the one he just threw away.
He spotted Cordy from the full-length mirror in front of him, a brief look of surprise flashing in his eyes before he soon said, âIâll come out once Iâm done changing.â
âCan you get dressed without problems?â Cordy asked.
âYeah.â
âWont you be touching your scars?â
âIâll watch out⦠Eh?â John suddenly murmured, and gulped unwittingly as he felt Cordyâs warm, dainty hands on his back.
Cordy probably had no idea how dangerous she was at the moment.
âIâm sorry, John,â she suddenly apologized. âIâm quite sensitive when it comes to Dicky. I shouldnât have bothered you the other day.â
All John could feel was the parchness in his throat, and his voice was already hoarse.
âSo? Are you going to make up for my little wounded soul with your body?â
He was asking with a smile, as if it was a joke.
He certainly didnât hold out much hope, because he was all too aware that Cordy would rather die than touch him before he cut all ties with Jessica.
That was why there were times when he was bursting with restraint, but still had to bear with it anyway.
âIf I may,â Cordy murmured ever so softly as she leaned her cheek on his back.
Her voice was very quiet, but John heard it anyway.
And very clearly at that.
His body stiffened, and he even suspected that Cordy was joking like him⦠but this joke could easily spiral out of control!
