"Are you all right?"
Gabby suddenly turned around, and saw Thomas
"Why aren't you sleeping, like the others?"-She asked, returning to focus on the bandage of her arm
"I could ask you the same question"-He said, Sitting on the lawn, next to her-"What did you do?"
She looked at her arm-"A bug stung me"-she lied-"I was itching so much that at some point it started to bleed"
"And do you need the bandage?"
"It's a full-fledged open wound, idiot"-She then said-"And it's not a bandage, it's a temporary bandage, in two days I'll take it off. I don't want to get an infection and die"
He nodded-"Can you teach me? To do this bandage"
She looked up at the sky-"What do I earn?"
"My wellness"
"Wow"-She murmured raising her eyes to the sky
At that point the two looked at each other for a few seconds, and then Gabby got up
"Where are you going?"-He asked
"Wait for me there and shut up"-She said, walking to the infirmary
She came back after about eight minutes, she had in one hand a roll of bandage, and a bottle containing a strange yellow substance
She went back to sit down, but this time she stood in front of him
At that point she pulled her knife out of her belt, and she approached her left wrist
"Hey, hey!"-He said, taking the knife from her hand-"What are you doing?"
"You need a wound to bandage"-She replied right away, as if she was impatient
As if she was waiting to have an excuse to hurt herself
At that point he approached the knife to his arm, and made a small cut on it
It immediately began to bleed, but since the cut was small, the blood was not much
She took the bottle and started pouring its contents on Thomas' arm, making it end up exactly on the wound
"You could feel it burn"
"It doesn't matter"
She looked up at him for a few seconds, and then refocussed on the proceedings
"This is amber"-She said-"It is a subspecies of disinfectant, it helps clean the wound and speeds up the healing process"
