" I'm done!"
Entering the room for the second time, Ryo glanced at the bullet wound. Though it hadn't been long enough for the wound to become infected, it definitely wasn't a pretty sight.
"Let's get you patched up then," she said as she walked over to the counter, grabbing the necessary materials. At times she wondered why she became a nurse, having to deal with the sick and wounded every day - not to mention the disease. But the answer was simple, it was because she wanted to help people. The silence was getting a bit awkward though, so after pulling a chair over, she started talking while cleaning his wound.
"If ths starts to hurt too much, just say so and I can give you an injection to numb the area, all right?" She didn't really see how having a bullet wound scrubbed out could not be painful, but some guys thought being in pain wasn't 'manly'. Well, to each his own...
Trying to think of a subject that would take his mind off of her scrubbing his wound, the coming festival suddenly popped into her mind. "So Kato-san, are you looking forward to the festival? As long as infection doesn't set in, you should be able to enjoy yourself without too much pain." She looked up momentarily to take her eyes off the wound, the clotted blood that had stopped the bleeding was now becoming dislodged. That was normal though, she was almost through and after that she just had to bandage him up and he'd be good as new. Well, almost.
