Capítulo 56: She wants to be a man

"Bitter." Aries winced at the bitterness of the medicine Abel fed her.

"Open your mouth."

"Huh?" She raised her brows but still opened her mouth on instinct. Before she could react, Abel shoved something into her mouth. 

"What..." Aries trailed off when the bitter taste was replaced by something sweet, melting into her mouth.

"I told them to bring candy since you kept whining about its bitter taste." Abel shrugged nonchalantly. "Happy?"

The corner of her lips stretched into a smile, nodding as a response. "Better."

"Good." 

Abel rocked his head lightly, hands on his crossed legs. Aries was leaning against the headboard while Abel was sitting up on the same bed, facing her squarely. 

"Now, you go back to sleep." He assisted her to lie down, tucking her in carefully.

"Will you leave?" she asked until the blanket covered her lips.
