Chapter 776: Waking up... Feelings... and a painful confession (2/2)

When she's bewildered and terrified, a guy known as Sugou introduced himself, informing her of her present circ.u.mstances.

She couldn't believe her ears, she just didn't think Sugou would do something like this.

Is she going to be trapped in this bird cage as his plaything?

Will she ever see the man she made a promise with?

Asuna was scared, she was petrified by the prospect of this. She prayed and she prayed hard for Wu Yan to whisk her away from all of this.

While she prayed, a dizzying sensation hit her when her environment started fading. She lost the sense of weight and existence, it was like something pulled her consciousness into the air. When she regained her tactile sense, weakness a.s.saulted her, then, she could see light beyond her eyelids.

Asuna was confused. She didn't know left from right. She's afraid she would see another cage-like room when she opens her eyes.

Except, this time, a familiar voice called out to her, piercing through her dreams and entering her heart.

Asuna's fear and doubt disappeared without a trace, her heart started racing.

It's him!

He's here!

She overcame her feeble self and she struggled hard to open her eyes. She wanted to see the figure that entered her heart with her own eyes!

Even if this is just a dream, just let me look at his face one more time!

Driven by her sheer will, she used every ounce of her energy to open her eyes. And then, she did...

Her chestnut-brown eyes drowned out the colors around her, the air turned better and the s.p.a.ce brightened up when this beauty stirred into consciousness. She saw the ceiling overhead and she saw it... The face that made her fall in love...

”Asuna...”

Wu Yan greeted her with a radiant smile, dispelling her uncertainty and fear.

”Good morning...”

Feeling the warmth, Asuna finally came to terms with reality...

This is all real...

She started tearing up, she couldn't hold her joy and the frustration of bottling up her grievances. She expressed her grief through her tears, she couldn't stop crying...

Wu Yan tightened his hold on her hand, telling her that he's here for her. Then, he used his other hand to wipe away hear tears, as gentle as his motor control allowed him.

Asuna struggled to get up from the bed. Then, she glomped Wu Yan, he received her and he took care not to strain her already feeble body.

”I knew it... I knew it...”

Asuna sobbed and whimpered.

”I knew you would find me...”

Wu Yan felt saddened and he had all the pity to give. He wanted to hug her tight but he's afraid he might crush her weakened body. He did what he could, he pat her back, telling her that it's going to be okay...

The two hugged each other as the sobbing sound made rounds around the room. The sunlight shone upon the two as if blessing the two's reunion.
