Bye, My Irresistible Love

Helen’s POV: 

I looked at the little girl blankly.She was sitting next to me, and on the other side sat a beautiful, young woman who was probably her mother.The little girl handed the tissue to me and said softly, "Here you are, miss.Please don’t cry.Everything will be all right."

Only then did I realize that there were a few more people sitting in the subway car.They were all staring at me with curious eyes.Perhaps in all my heavy crying, I hadn’t realize what a mess I was.

"Thank you." I took the tissue and wiped my tears.

As soon as I touched my injured cheek, it hurt so much that I started sobbing uncontrollably again.

"Do you want to go to the hospital? I will be happy to take you," the little girl’s mother said in a soft, gentle voice.

"No, thank you.I’m fine."

My nose twitched again.The kindness from a stranger stirred the grievance deep inside my heart, and tears fell unabated again.I hurriedly turned around to wipe my tears.I didn’t want anyone to see me cry.

"Miss, don’t cry, please.I’ll blow your booboo for you so it will stop hurting."

The little girl was about three or four years old.She naively thought that as long as she blew my cheek, the pain would go away.

"Honey, if she wants to cry, just let her cry.She will feel fine after crying," the little girl’s mother explained to her gently.

I felt warmth from total strangers, and my cold heart gradually warmed up, little by little.My rivulet of tears had stopped but my eyes were dry and hurt.

"Thank you." I expressed my sincere gratitude to them.

"You are welcome.We all encounter various kinds of problems when we least expect it.We just have to be brave and face them," the little girl’s mother said, trying to console me.

Only then did I realize that I had already passed several stops in the subway.

All the other passengers had alighted.
