The great beauty froze and laughed, “Are you using my money to hire me?”

The teenager, “En.” He added, “It’s given to me, so it’s my money now.”

Finally, he had a reaction that was appropriate for his age. The great beauty’s heart softened and he let him in.

He applied medicine for the teenager and saw how much the bruises on his back had faded. 46dyPk

Today, the teenager was dressed in a loose black T-shirt. Instead of taking it off, he could simply lift it from the back. He slumped on the couch, the fabric was piled on the thin, raised butterfly bones. His bright, blinding skin mirrored layers upon layers of black, purplish contusions.

In comparison to yesterday, the scratches were slightly smaller. The great beauty looked down at his draped black hair and relaxed face on his side frame and thought to himself, “This injury must hurt a lot.”

Then it was time to leave.

The great beauty went after him and escorted him out the door before the teen walked towards the stairs, the great beauty grabbed his hand.

“Bye.” The great beauty didn’t say anything else, just smiled at him and bid him goodbye. qR0 Hh

The teenager didn’t come on the third day, but he reappeared on the fourth.

The bruising on his face has almost faded out, the bruise pigments are lightening, and his once-unbearable face has returned to its original clean and delicate state.

The great beauty had worked overtime and came home only to see him standing on the upper steps of his house, turning his head as soon as he heard his footsteps.

“How come you’re still standing there?”  The great beauty questioned, “Can’t remember the floor of my house? 0YJpBm

The teenager said, “To prevent my dad from seeing me.”

He was beckoned down by the great beauty.

He pulled out another twenty yuan and handed it to the great beauty, his two eyes expressionless.

Without saying anything, the great beauty accepted it. eqK7WL

There were no more words exchanged between them except for inspecting the wound and applying the medication. When it was over, the great beauty let him rest for a little longer and poured him a cup of hot water to drink

He queried, “Do you want milk tea? I have milk tea powder here.”

The teenager declined in a very low voice, “Nope.”

The great beauty didn’t hear it. He kept scourging through the cabinet, and the youth no longer made another sound. Only when the great beauty walked over with a powder bag, as he stared at his hand, did he speak, “No need.” TvGwLu

“I’ve prepared everything.” The great beauty laughed as he bowed his head. He made him milk tea and thoroughly stirred it, the cup exuding a rich aroma.

The great beauty put the cup in front of him once more, and the teenager took it in his hands. He could only take tiny sips of the milk tea because it was already hot.

Despite his cold visage, the great beauty thought he looked like a puppy licking water.

This time, when he left, the great beauty walked with him downstairs. jMCqb4

The great beauty stroked his fine and soft hair under the just-lit street lamp, a stark contrast to his detached demeanor.

“You’re a very cute kid.” The great beauty said to him softly, “I’d like to see how you look after you’ve fully recovered, and I want to see what you originally look like. So, the next time you come to see me, don’t bring any money, okay?”
