When Olive looked in the mirror, she realized that the marking on her face had faded significantly. Her skin had also become bright and glowy.
That was amazing!
Olive stared at Darryl in a daze and asked, "The ointment you've been working the past few days was for me? It's to remove the marking on my face?"
Olive was not stupid. She realized that what Darryl had done for the past few days was all for her.
"That's right!"
Darryl smiled and answered firmly, "Olive, you're a kind woman. You've saved my life in the forest, and I'll be grateful for it forever. Removing the marking on your face is the least I could do to pay you back."
Darryl pointed at the packets of medicine next to him. "These are all the medicines that I've made. Mix them with water to turn them into a pasty ointment. Lather it on your face every day for the next couple of weeks, and the marking on your face will be gone completely."
"Dart—"
Olive was moved by Darryl's words and actions that her eyes were watery.
