Nosebleed

Zarius nodded like a child. Usually di never showed his tears to other people, but this time it was different, Zarius could act like this to the man.

"It's okay to cry for a man! Crying is necessary to express all emotions. If, you need a place to lean on, I'll lend you my chest, Zarius." Mr. Reno said sincerely with a smile.

"Okay. Thank you, Uncle--"

Suddenly Mr. Reno's strong hands brought Zarius into his arms again. Mr. Reno made Zarius's body bend slightly when he saw Zarius' nose suddenly bleeding.

Zarius was also shocked to see the blood coming from his nose, now dripping onto Mr. Reno's thigh who was sitting next to him. The two of them were sitting on the lounger behind Mr. Reno's house.

"W-what's this? What's wrong with you, Son? Have your internal wounds recurred?" shouted Mr. Reno, looking very panicked to see the teenager who had been crying in his chest, was now dripping a lot of blood from his nose.

Zarius noticed that and hastily covered his nose with his hand. Blood was still running between his fingers until a few minutes later. Zarius' nosebleed was accompanied by a headache. There are several factors that caused Zarius to suddenly experience a nosebleed like this. Maybe because of the internal injuries that Zarius suffered, or indeed Zarius is very tired and stressed right now.

However, tonight it looks like Zarius has a nosebleed due to a fever. Zarius has been working hard to clean the entire residence of Reno Yudhistira's family on Eric's orders, since this morning. Even though Zarius claims he is a tough teenager. However, it is undeniable that Zarius' body is still not fully healed. Moreover, Zarius was found seriously injured when he met Yudhisthira's family.

Mr. Reno stood up, took a few steps back from Zarius who was still sitting while continuing to cover his nose with his hands. And now, Zarius covered his nose with the tip of the shirt he was wearing.

Mr. Reno was so shocked to see a lot of blood. He felt a little guilty because it was possible that his decision to bring Zarius to his house was a big mistake. Mr. Reno is not a rich man who can give Zarius expensive treatment.

Should Mr. Reno just report Zarius to the police station? Who knew the Zarius family was looking for a young man at this time? thought Mr. Reno, confused.

Since Zarius already knows that Mr. Reno is currently feeling panicked, Zarius does his best to wipe and hide the blood from Mr. Reno.

"It's okay, Uncle. Even though my nose is bleeding a lot, I don't feel any pain at all," Zarius lied as he tried to stop the bleeding from his nose.

The white shirt that Zarius was wearing had now turned blackish red in color, because he had wiped the blood that was coming out of his nose.
