Ian's pain - Part 2
"Deputy," Ian almost cried when he saw the long gash on her back with all the blood around it. It ran all the way from her shoulder to her mid-waist and it was shockingly ghastly. Ian picked up the cotton swab and started to clean her wound as he kept making sure that Valerie's vitals were fine every few minutes.
It was only when he was done cleaning her back that he saw how horrendous the wound looked on her tanned skin. He felt his heart ripping apart and he had no idea the why. Although Valerie would heal, that is if she passed the critical period, the scar on her back would not vanish ever, unless she went for plastic surgery.
Ian felt bad for the woman. No woman would bear to have a scar anywhere on her body and to think that Valerie would have to bear with such a long ad ugly scar, he felt utterly exasperated. Nevertheless, he still continued with his work and stitched her wound.
