So Simple Minded

I looked down at the boy, pleading for the lives of his comrades. Letting out a long sigh, I reached down, took his hand, and healed him. I never knew if I pitied those who were so selfless or envied them for being that way. 

I opened my mouth a few times, trying to find the words that I wanted to say, but eventually, I decided not to say anything at all. 

"You're a healer?" gasped one of the guards as he watched in horror as the bruises on his coworker vanished in front of his eyes. 

"No," replied Bin An Sha, the cold smile on his face. "I'm a healer. She's the Healer… otherwise known as the Angel of City A."

Brushing past everyone, Bai Long Qiang scooped me up into his arms and let out a contented sigh. "Finally," he murmured as he grazed his nose along my temple. "I missed this."

Wrapping my arms around him, I agreed.
