Chapter 415 - Memories (1/2)

She was thinking of her parents who left her alone in this world, all by herself. She saw them dispersing into thin air while she stood there with one of her hands reaching for them.

But unlike before, they did not pick her up and she was left standing there alone wondering if they didn't want her anymore...

And if this was her life from then on.

But...

But that was not the end of her dreams. She saw the time flashing in front of her eyes, she saw the world changing gradually, she saw a small hand reaching out to her amidst the darkness.

She saw herself following that tiny hand of the girrl and walking out of everything that was trapping her.

She saw the girl growing up into a beautiful woman and Mia remembered everything as the realize started dawning on her in her dreams. The illusion faded and she recognized everyone, Yu Mei was there, Jun Zixuan was there....

And she saw him, the person who quietly pulled her into his arms when she was sitting on the seashore, looking at the sky and crying quietly. The man who didn't mind her cold words and uncaring tone, who took all her tantrums and made food for her, knowing how much she liked the food he cooked.

She saw him holding her closer to him while he made love to her.... And she remembered him stroking her back when she slept in his arms.

But the place started shattering and all of a sudden, the world in front of her eyes changed. She found herself standing in an empty place, walls filled with blood, cliffs surrounding her and every human she saw turned into a faraway image.

And she was all alone once again, just like before when her parents left.

All she felt was a numbness in her body and emptiness in her chest as she looked at the gradually darkening sky.

She did not know how long she stood there for but she knew it was way too long and even when she tried to move, it was as if she was chained to the place, unable to move, unable to walk away. She was just left there standing quietly, feeling a huge hole in her chest.

And all of a sudden, there was a prickly sensation on her back. She tried to reach for her back but her hands did not move. With every passing second, her pain intensified but maybe it was because her body was numb, even though she felt the pain, she could not feel it that much.

It was weird until she felt a burning sensation on her back and her breathing turned uneven, the pain this time felt so real that she could feel her fingers shaking.

Just when she thought it was over, she felt another hit on her back which was followed by one more and it kept going on until she felt her skin being ripped. She bent forward, spatting a mouthful of blood.
