It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 456 Do You Like Pain (Part One)

"Tom, I was looking for you. Here!" Leena said and lifted her hand, pouting in a cute way. She reached out her wounded hand to show it to Tom.

"Oh! Damn. How could I forget about your wound? Come here! Let me help. Let's get you checked out and I'll change the dressing." Tom forgot about Leena's wound completely because he was busy with Edward's surgery. He couldn't remember there was still a little patient waiting for him until Leena came to him.

'But what's the matter with those people?' Tom thought to himself. 'Do they think that I have nothing better to do so they get injured one by one? And what's worse, each person is more wounded than the one before them. They should feel lucky that I am here. Otherwise, no matter how good I am or how effective the medicine is, it wouldn't help. After all, while the grass grows the horse starves.'

"Uncle Tom, do you have some medicine that hurts a lot but works really well for her hand?" Justin asked with sly eyes, showing his canine teeth. He said to himself while looking at Tom excitedly, 'You always make fun of me, Leena. Now I'll show you how it feels. Watch the true master at work!'

"What? Are you worried about your aunt's wound? So you're asking for a good medicine for her now?" Tom asked, scratching his head and smiling. He knew very well about the rivalry between Leena and Justin although he didn't spend too much time with him. He had no idea what tricks this little boy was playing, but he was sure that Justin's advice wasn't out of real concern for his aunt.

"Ya! I'm worried." Justin said cheerfully and didn't notice that his aunt, who was standing steps away, was staring daggers at him. It seemed as if the rage in her eyes was on the brink of explosion. If someone triggered her, there was no doubt that all the creatures around here would be dead, and not a blade of grass would grow.

"Little boy, do you like pain? Huh?" Leena yelled at Justin between clenched teeth. 'Doesn't he know she is scared of pain?' she thought. It was okay if he didn't help her, but he even made things worse. Wasn't he asking for a beating?

"No. I was raised in a healthy home, so I don't have a sick soul. But it seems you're pretty familiar with it." Justin said. No way. He wouldn't be Edward's son if he didn't take revenge. If there was no opportunity to fight back, he would create one. He wouldn't lose. Couldn't lose. Like father, like son. How could he do any less for his dad?

"I'm normal. You really talk big. Are you sure you didn't fall out of the stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down?" Leena didn't understand why she would get so angry every time she saw Justin. 'Ordinarily, I don't offend him too much! I just use the kid as a shield sometimes. Does he need to be so resentful?' Leena thought to herself.

"Enough. You can stop now. I really can't stand that you two are stretching the truth too much here. Don't you need me to apply the medicine to you? Well. You can keep arguing. I'll show up when you're finished, "

Tom said and shook his head helplessly. He couldn't understand their behavior. Neither of them was willing to make compromises and every word they said to each other was harsh. It seemed that both of them were the kind of people who hated to lose! "Hmph!" Justin turned around and glared at Leena. The cool and aggressive look on his angry face was similar to Edward's, which made Leena feel that the little boy standing in front of her was just Edward, a small version of Edward.

"Little boy, you hold grudges. Not a good habit!" Leena didn't forget to make fun of Justin at the last minute. It was obvious that she was as unforgiving as Justin.

It was not as horrible as last time when Tom applied medicine for Leena. After all, most of the wound scarred, so she could hardly feel the pain. Justin felt unhappy with this, because he thought he could take this chance to laugh at her. To his surprise, he didn't even hear her cry once. He remembered that she cried out of pain last time. He wondered why it was different this time.

Leena looked at Justin from the corner of her eyes gleefully, with a big smile on her lips. 'This little boy wants to laugh at me. Humph!' Leena thought. She would not make his wish come true! Why she knew that? The reason was obvious and simple: They were the same type of people.

'Bah! What have you got to be proud of?' Justin thought. How could a woman, who wasn't as brave as a child, be shameless to behave so elated? She should still remember the tearjerker scene last time when she got scalded. Justin looked at Leena with a sneer and his eyes were filled with sarcasm. Leena was really pissed off at him. She was desperate to frustrate him again in case he spoke rudely to her. Her gaze said 'I dare you.'

Although Tom was concentrating on applying medicine for Leena, he was quite clear that there was a secret war happening between Justin and Leena. One cunning woman with one cunning boy, who would come out on top? Of course it would be unwinnable. So Tom decided not to offend or provoke either of them because he didn't want them to gang up on him. Just let them be! He tended to sit on the fence at this.

With each one holding an idea in their heads, the whole procedure of applying medicine came to a perfect end. Having wasted too much time watching the war between Leena and Justin, Tom found that Luke, Belinda, and Rain had been away when they returned to Edward's room. The three must have gone back home, Tom thought. Because they had seen the people whom they wanted to see and made sure that Edward was well, so they didn't need to worry too much. Besides, Tom, who was a medical genius, was Edward's surgeon, so they didn't have to stay there any longer. After all, air circulation was good for the patient's health.00000000000
