When Shui Xian and Raelle went upstairs, Shui Xian's attention was solely on Raelle as if he was waiting for something. However, to his disappointment, Raelle's attention was solely on her heels that she took off once they got on the third floor, and holding up the heels, she entered the bedroom barefoot.
As she entered the closet, Shui Xian's eyes caught sight of her feet and rushed after her.
"What happened?"
Raelle looked behind at him and asked, "What happened?"
Shui Xian put his under her arms and picked her body up to make her sit on the boutique-style counter placed in the middle of the closet. He got down on his knee and held her foot in his hand. Looking at the redness behind her foot, he looked up at her, "Did your shoe bite? Why did you continue to wear it if it was uncomfortable?"
Raelle only now realized why he had such a reaction and didn't know how to react for a moment. She looked into his eyes and said, "It wasn't originally uncomfortable. My feet swelled up a little and that's why the friction caused this teeny tiny redness. See, it didn't even cause a blister."
Shui Xian definitely wasn't happy with this reply. "So you mean, it only matters when it causes a blister? If your feet swelled up, you should have just put these heels off already."
Raelle put her hand on his head and ran her fingers through his hair saying lazily, "I usually take off the heels when I'm in my own office. But today I didn't get the chance to stay inside my office. This is really fine."
Shui Xian looked at her unhappily, "How is it fine? Your little toe is also bright red. Any more and it'd have really caused a blister. That would have been painful. I don't even understand why women have to torture themselves with the heels? Aren't you tall enough already?"
"Hubby," she called out. "Have you heard, you can conquer the world with the right pair of shoes?"
Shui Xian rolled his eyes mentally, "Clearly, this wasn't that right pair of shoes."
"How can you say that?"
"If it hurts, it can't be right," he rebutted.
"In your words, love hurts as well, why do you still insist on falling in love?" she countered.
Shui Xian was left speechless. He really didn't know why she would connect these two things. They were clearly unrelated. But how come he couldn't come up with something to argue with her? Yes, love hurts and so does the shoe bite. Pain is pain, no? What was the difference exactly?
He finally thought of something and said, "This pain is physical and the one caused by love is something unseen. They are entirely different."
"Are you saying that just because the pain of love can't be seen it's hard to say how intense or extreme it can be? Or are you underestimating the physical pain just because it appears to be so small?" She leaned down and put her finger under his chin to push his face up saying, "But my dear husband, would you like to explain to me, in what way can you measure the pain?" She blinked at him as she continued, "Just because you believe that your pain is unbearable, doesn't mean you can understand the hell the other person is going through."
Shui Xian glared at her, "Where are we taking this conversation? I'm just worried about my wife? Don't distract me!"
"Okay," replied Raelle.
"Does it hurt?" he asked softly this time.
Raelle shook her head, "It doesn't. I didn't even know about it. It's just that I felt the shoes were too tight, so I took them off as soon as I got the chance. It definitely wasn't because of the pain."
Shui Xian sighed out, "Right. Why do I even bother asking about whether it hurts or not?" He rubbed her foot gently as if massaging it. He could tell that her feet were really swollen as she had told him.
"I didn't wash my feet yet," reminded Raelle.
"Shut up!"
"Oh," responded Raelle and chose to stay quiet.
It seemed Shui Xian was in his own thoughts. Raelle already knew that her husband was a little too sensitive about things. Who knew he'd be worried about such tiny matters as well? Did he have to waste his feelings on this as well? Didn't all women have to go through this? Even if it hurts, which woman would give up on her favorite pair of shoes?
Women were just that kind of strange beings. Either it was a painful relationship or a painful pair of stilettos. As long as they loved it, they'd never let it go.
"I'm gonna bring ice cubes," stated Shui Xian as he got up. "That would help with the shoe bite."
Before she could stop him, he ran away. Raelle tapped on the countertop and then jumped down. She changed out of her clothes and entered the bathroom to wash her face. When she came out, Shui Xian was already waiting for her with ice cubes.
Taking the time she was in the bathroom, he had changed into comfortable clothes and pulled up his sleeves as he beckoned her over. "Come here."
Raelle really wanted to say that it wasn't needed. However, she could actually tell that he wasn't willing to listen right now either. So, just for the peace of his mind, she decided to go along with whatever he was up to. Besides, it was just ice cubes. No big deal.
She sat down on the sofa while he sat on the footrest and picked up her foot to place it on his legs. Taking an ice cube, he started rubbing it on the reddish skin of her foot.
"I say, Hubby, you love bringing trouble to yourself," stated Raelle as she noticed how attentively he was doing it.. He just had to do things his way even if it meant extra work.
