Malik turned around from the question Ari asked him as he looked down at his injuries. He didn't make a big deal out of it being that he's a fighter, he don't cry or complain about injuries as it comes with the territory of being warrior-like. He didn't want her to help him but since she insisted, he simply followed [color=007236]Got them from fighting....I'm lucky this is all that happened or otherwise I wouldn't be here now.[/color] he responded to her going up to the bathroom with her and sat on the toilet to let her work on his cuts.

Taking his shirt off, he was not only showing his injuries but the a ripped, athletic, torso in which Ari started working on. he did jump a little from the stinging but he managed to go this long without passing out and acted as if he weren't hurt but with adrenaline and the will to live ever so strong, who has time to worry about injuries.

As his wounds were cleaned and bandaged, Malik stared at her. He did take a peek at her breasts and then at her face. When asked about the ones in the front, the worse one was near where they tried to stab him in the heart but missed. He groaned from the pain and also should a bullet flesh would on his side as well. He looked up at her once more trying to block out the pain [color=007236]Why are you being so nice to me?[/color] he asked curiously after she was done but watched her walk out and into the master bedroom. 

Malik quietly walked to the door frame of the master bedroom and watched her for a moment as she laid there looking at a picture. He didn't bother her as she ended up going to sleep. He thought for a moment about his girlfriend as Ari reminded him of her. She never really liked it when he fought in matches but because she was a nurse, she was always willing to take care of him and help heal him. He and his girlfriend were engaged before the war broke out and after it did, his family, he never heard from him, especially his brother, who he lived with, he was shot in the head. His girlfriend, she was raped and murdered as he remembered cradling her dead body that was 4 months pregnant. 

Those thoughts haunted him which kept him from sleeping most of the time. He left to go down stairs to make something to eat for the night and saved some meat for Ari for when she woke up. He spent the night cleaning his blades and checked out the gun Ari left behind as he took it and placed it on the counter so just in case they got an unwanted visitor, he could defend them without getting close. He was still not very sure if he should stay with Ari, feeling she would slow him down but then again, she looked like she needed all the help she could get. He waited til morning when she wakes up to figure what to do next. But....for the time being, he needed to exercise.
