Chapter 7 (1/2)

“I think you need more rest, Madam.”

“So I do.”

It was at that time when he was breathing in to retort his words.

Trickle—

I felt something watery flow quickly down from my nose to my lips.

Ah, this familiar sensation, this feeling is definitely…

When I wiped my mouth off, I found my hand covered in blood. Oh, my God. I’m having a nosebleed.

While I was looking at the hand that wiped off my mouth, I could feel something flowing down from the opposite nostril. Blood began to flow down as much as possible in an instant and the bedsheets began to get stained.

When I saw the bright red blood, my eyesight suddenly became fuzzy. My surroundings were starting to become blurred and I felt dizzy. My vision began to slowly dim out.

I was starting to lose my bearings. Cold sweat began to flow and everything sounded like it was getting farther and farther away.

No, what’s wrong with me? Why…

“Alyssa!”

(t/n: he finally called her name!)

The last time I heard Rashid calling, I lost consciousness.

“Louise, I want some water…”

“Yes, Mistress. Please wait a minute.”

There is still red blood in front of me. My heart kept beating without listening.

When I drank a glass of cold water, it felt like my head finally cooled down.

“Phew…”

After a long sigh, I laid back in bed.

After collapsing in front of Rashid with a nosebleed, I was lying on a bed when I regained consciousness.

The doctor, who examined my body, diagnosed it as a sudden rush of blood to my head. My body wasn’t healed yet, but because of a sudden change of my emotions, I got to where I was now.

The doctor just said, “You weren’t so healthy to begin with, but you’re even weaker now. Try to stay calm,” and left.

I wasn’t so emotional… But if the doctor said so, then that’s what it is. Even if I pretend to be, I was also worried because my body was thin and skinny.
