384 WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? (1/2)
Senja woke up when the sky has turned dark with headache. She looked at Xiao Tianyao beside her who was still unconscious.
She looked around and saw a flame of bon fire from the door that slightly opened. It seemed, she missed the time for Xiao Tianyao's medicine.
With throbbing head, she walked out from the room to get water. She forced her body to move forward and with staggered step she managed to pull open the door.
In the clearing, she saw Ju Long grilled a chicken on the bon fire.
”You fast asleep.” He commented when Senja took a seat in front of him and poured hot water from a kettle into a bowl.
”Yes, my head aching.” Senja mumbled.
After she was done, carefully she brought back the bowl when Ju Long spoke in his guttural voice. ”I will grill one more chicken for you.”
Senja halted in her step and turned around to give him a faint smile as she said. ”Thank you.”
She was starving, but she didn't have any desire to eat. She was too tired even to eat, however she knew she couldn't act like that. She needed all the strength that she could gather, regardless, she had the appetite to eat or not.
Senja hobbled her way into the room and concocted the medicine for Xiao Tianyao before she fed him in the same way she had done these past two days.
After that, she took off his robe and wiped his body carefully, she started to wipe his face, neck and his torso.
Tracing her finger along his arms absentmindedly until she stopped at the scratched on his wrist where the poison was registered into his body.
It was just small scratched, but the effect was incredible.
She didn't know how she could push herself to go through this nightmare, nothing was important for her right now. Nothing could draw her interest, not even the news if she could return to her world.
Senja knew at that very moment that she wanted to be with him.
”When you will put my clothes on…?”
