Chapter 3 - She Is Awake (1/2)
”Arrrgh…” Han Jian Yu felt a splitting headache as a searing pain started up in his head.
”Boss..”
”What should we do?”
”I don't know what's happening. Let's take him to the hospital first..”
”You…What about the culprits behind this? Boss ordered us to search for them. How can we go against his orders?”
”Half of us stay here and the rest will take the boss to the hospital. You both, take Young Miss's body..”
”Hurry…”
…
The darkness seemed to be never-ending as she walked.
Everything seemed so surreal, she tried to open her mouth, she wanted to shout out loud but it seemed like her mouth couldn't move, it was painful the moment she moved her lips.
It has been a long time she was walking like this, a very long time.
It was not until she saw a tiny ray of light that she felt there was a way out of this place.
Her racing heart seemed to have calmed down as she followed the white ray, the ray that brought her hope.
She followed behind it until the brightness intensified. Every inch of her body ached yet she dragged herself towards the source of light.
”N..No…I mus..t leave..”
She wanted to escape the place desperately, it gave her a terrifying feeling as if it would cage her forever the moment she gave up.
After what seemed like a long time, she stood there in front of glaring lights. She was blinded by its intensity which caused her to cover her face with both her hands. There was a flash and…
'Bang' The girl lying on the king-sized bed sat up in a flash, the syringe attached to her hand dragged the rest of the pieces of equipment down with it.
Her eyes widened as she panted, her long hair covered her face ”I..I..” she stuttered, ”A-Alive..” a whisper left her mouth.
Her throat was parched, it hurt her to speak a single word but she ignored everything, no pain mattered as long as she was not dead.
She did not want to die. There were many things she wanted to do. Moreover, she did not want to part from her loved ones.
Amidst her thoughts, she noticed her surrounding which seemed to be a part of some fairytale.
Pink wall, pink ceiling, pink bed, pink bedsheets, it seemed someone has dyed everything pink.
She pursed her lips, the color somewhat did not sit well with her.
An uncomfortable feeling rose in her heart.
”Who...Who are you?” Her gaze landed on the nurse standing in the corner, looking at her in disbelief as if she had seen some ghost.
The nurse was stunned as she looked at the girl in front of her. There was no difference between her and a dead person a moment ago, she was surviving entirely because of the advanced life-supporting system. Her breathing was weak to the point of being negligible.
