Although the men who captured Ashley had increased their alertness, they had only focused on the woman's abilities and missed one thing that was considered 'harmless'. If they knew the Ashley stick they had confiscated was also holding a sword, perhaps the men would suspect all the objects the woman was carrying.
Returning to the idea that they had crippled Ashley, the barn guards were not at all worried when they decided to put the woman together with her 'criminal comrades' who were caught first. Perhaps if they were willing to hear the opinions of others, Ashley would have no chance at all.
Pulling out a small knife hidden in Ashley's necklace pendant, Eva then uses it to cut the rope that ties the woman's hands and feet. Humping down while relaxing the muscles of his movement, Ashley finally can be separated from the aches, pains, and tingling that bother him.
There were red streaks on the Blonde's hands and feet that were injured by the friction of the rope and tied too tight. Not only because of the rope, but the iron chain that had adorned Ashley's wrist also left a trace there, making Eva's heart feel more broken.
Back tilting her body with great difficulty, the woman tried to grab his other arm. But failing to have enough energy, Ashley glanced at Eva, again asking her to do something that should be done as soon as possible.
"Liat the cave shoulder?"
"Gua wants to get to the cave's shoulders."
Not caught by anything, of course Eva can see clearly Ashley's shoulder dislocated to the back. Already feel pain just by looking at it, now the woman actually wants Eva to restore the shift of the joint.
Eva's panic begins to emerge. He couldn't do anything that could hurt Ashley more than this. What else is it using his hands directly.
Realizing that the little woman there would give a normal response to the layman, Ashley continued her speech to convince Eva.
"Don't worry, gabisa cave painfully from small. So whatever you do will not be felt. You're just peERGH!!"
Instantly shouting while speaking, all the muscles of the woman stiffened because of what Eva had done all of a sudden. Returning Ashley's shoulders as before by force and without warning, he managed to fool the woman who was trying to fool him. But not intentional, he only believed too much with Ashley's words.
"A-ah!? What pain?" He said that he had been deceived and really believed that Ashley could not feel pain.
Seeing the recklessness Ashley had always done, it was natural for him to believe.
Immediately back to panic when he saw the Blonde's response, Eva was made up in the fog by a woman who was now just stretched stiff like a wood right in front of her.
"Ga. The cave's just shocked." Answer the Blonde later.
His intention to tell Eva the correct technique was no longer needed.
It's a lie if you say it doesn't hurt, but when compared to the previous one, what Ashley feels is now very much better.
To be honest, Eva's trust in Ashley was already very unreasonable. Even to the point of being scary. If he applied it to everyone, his age would not be long.
Having absolutely no energy left after a heavily draining, scathing rebellion, Ashley decides to take a break first.
Twice unconsciousness made him even more blind to the time that had passed. He can only hope he still has enough time to rest and escape before Far comes and takes all chances of his escape.
Given Ashley's cold body, Eva was about to tear off the dress she was wearing to cover the blond woman's body.
But Ashley's hand stopped him.
Explaining that he did not want the woman who was physically younger than him to be cold, Eva actually got another strange reason.
"Ga need, sultry cave."
Glancing at Eva who was still not too sure of Ashley's answer, Blondie said again,
"Gua likes cold."
Unable to force herself against Ashley's stubbornness, Eva was forced to obey.
A few moments passed in silence. No longer using her legs to cushion Ashley's head, Eva now lies not far from the woman on the whim of her 'cage friend'. Despite having many questions, Eva still did not ask him because she did not want to disturb the rest time that Ashley really needed at this time.
Glancing to the side saw the back with many lash scars disguised by new bruises, making Eva even more eager to hug Ashley. Then in the middle of the silence, the blonde woman finally said something.
Something that feels both honest and heartbreaking. Pronounced in a weak voice, Ashley made the 3 words seem very deep and meaningful.
Rising and lying behind the woman who had previously admitted to liking the cold, Eva then hugged her slowly from behind.
"illness?" He did not want to accidentally hurt Ashley whose body was not in good shape.
Not directly answering, the woman's mind was distracted by nostalgic feelings that made her feel-good
be safe.
Answering in a soft voice, using one word her mainstay Ashley confirmed that she did not feel any pain or object to what Eva was doing. The thing that made him remember the mother who always hugged him while sleeping, made him feel safe to close his eyes and go to the dream world.
It no longer had anyone who could watch its back.
Trapped in a strange world alone.
Keep running around here and there without stopping looking for a way out to get back.
It's not all as easy as it seems.
When he thought he finally had something,
have someone he can count on,
and know where to go, and,
suddenly everything disappeared,
letting the cold air blow through his unguarded back.
"Hey."
Returning to break the silence, Ashley finally said the thing she had kept in her heart because she did not know what to say.
"Daryl's looking for you."
Not hearing Eva's usually very spontaneous response, Ashley's eyeballs ran to the tip, glancing back without turning her head.
"...i hope he doesn't get hurt."
"She must have been determined without thinking about risk, ah, but Will would have been able to handle it."
Hearing those answers somehow suffocated Ashley's chest. Given the fact that they both care about each other so much, it was unexpected to have such a powerful effect on him. Despite having tried to accept, Ashley still did not understand where all the pain was coming from.
"But shouldn't you be safe if you're engaged to her? Daryl's got a high position, right?"
Stuttering not knowing what to say first, Eva then sat down with a flushed face.
"I'm not engaged to him!"
Both are silent and staring at each other. Ashley noticed Eva's embarrassed and surprised face. Not ashamed of not liking, but ashamed of ever liking.
At that moment, Ashley realized. He was deceived by someone he met only once.
