Thank You But You Gotta Go
When the two of them got to the boarding house, Oscar helped Lisa to sit on the sofa with a deep sigh. That woman must have been overwhelmed by her encounter with the two thugs in the deserted alley just now!
The man rushed to the bathroom and brought a tub filled with water and a towel. Then he went to the kitchen and heated the water in a pot.
Oscar returned to the living room looking at Lisa, who was still speechless. The incident in the alley still shocked her.
The man walked over to Lisa and sat beside her. He put his arm around her while gently stroking Lisa's head. He leaned Lisa's head against his broad chest. "Calm down, Lisa. I'm here. The warm water will be ready soon. You must immediately clean yourself,"
His voice was very soft. Lisa could hardly recognize the man as her ex-husband when he spoke in a soft and caring voice like this. When Oscar was still her husband, he was never this gentle.
