The storm is over and the black cloud in the sky gradually dispersed and the sun begins to shine like the rainbow embellished the sky with beautiful color, finally, the weather is clear again and that's how to describe Zhao Li Xin mood. He helps Lory to lean her back on a headboard, Lory was still in a daze as the mory from the secret library and sacred mountain peak society rush in, Lory feel uncomfortable when she hit by too much information at the sa ti.
"Do you feel uncomfortable sowhere, are you hurt? I call Huo Long right away!" just before he raised from the bed lory hold his hand.
"I'm fine, just too much sleeping…I'll be fine later" Lory feel groggy but she forces herself to smiles to comfort Zhao Li Xin.
He sees Lory frail continence, his heart ached for her. He returns to Lory's side and let her rest on his shoulder. There's a lot of things he wants to ask but he worries he would agitate her, what would happen if Lory suddenly got stress and fall asleep again. Zhao Li Xin didn't dare to provoke her, at least he have to nurture her health back to normal again before he asks anything.
And just like that he swallow his question back to his heart.
Lory feel listless is like the strength drain from her body she feel numbs from head to toe. She clenches and releases her fist to test her strength but and yet her hand feel weak.
"How long I've been sleeping"
Zhao Li Xin ponder for a second then said "for the outside, three weeks but here….you sleep for two hundred and ten days"
Lory blinks her beautiful purple's eyes a few tis 'FU*K, that's not sleeping that is coma, she coma for almost one year!!'
Lory nervously stares at Zhao Li Xin, she fears how much trauma she inflicted to this man. Zhao Li Xin's faces remain straight without any turbulence and that makes her worry even more.
"Li…Xin"
"Do you want to take a bath, I prepare your bath" all of the sudden he raised from the bed, he fix lory pillow and blanket then leave the room without saying anything. Lory's heart shrunk she knew there sothing wrong about Zhao Li Xin, it seems he mad at her, Lory heavily sighs, is he going to gives her silent treatnt after she awoke?
Lory startled when she heard knocking sounds from the door "Co in…." Lory said with hoarse voice.
A man with red hair peeks from behind the door "You finally awake" his grin is a mixture of surprise and relief.
"Hi" Lory weakly smiles.
Huo Long enters the room who still dark because Zhao Li Xin close all the curtains so it wouldn't bother her although Huo long hard to understand Zhao Li Xin's concept of thought, is he wants her to wake up or not?
"Do you want to open the window?"
"Please" Lory nods.
Huo long opens the window then he pushes the window open "It's good weather isn't it" he takes a deep breath.
"...."
The weather in the Mystique realm remains the sa, there's no day or night just constant, the only way she knew the change of ti by looking at the hourglass or incense burner. But Huo Long knows it and for Zhao Li Xin…he leisurely asks Huo long how much day has passed.
It's a mysterious space, where ti moving faster but everything inside it remain the sa everything grows but never withered, everything that broke will automatically be fixed, everything you brought from outside will remains the sa until you brought it out again, it's a magical world beyond her comprehension.
"Are you the first kind?" Lory abruptly asked.
Huo Long startled but then smiles, he pours water on the bowl then he hands it on Lory "I'm close to it, but I'm not…." He warmly smiles at Lory "I'm glad you finally awake, I can't stand it watching that boy hollow face, remind with old tis…it's not a good ti" he sighs while clasped his hands behind his back.
"He seems angry though" Lory stifles then drinks the whole bowl.
"More like terrified…" he corrects her.
She put down the empty bowl on the side table "That's understandable" she realizes she must scare Zhao Li Xin with the sudden comatose state even she did not expect this.
"I told him about the cursed" Huo Long fixed his gaze at Lory.
Lory look conflicted but then let out a long sigh "I see…."
"The boy deserved to know…," he said again.
"I know…"Lory agrees with him, is not like she never tries to tell him but sohow she always delay it, Lory took a glance at Huo Long "How much you told him?"
"Just…the obvious, that you used Lazarus power to change your brother's faith and the consequences of your action" he casually said.
Lory rest her head on the pillow "Well you basically tell him everything"
"No not everything….that boy must ask you 'Why', why you do that" he waves his hand aimlessly as he speaks "he needs to hear it from you"
Lory bites her lips as her heart begins to palpitated "Is that important?" Lory weakly smiles.
"Why the woman he loves more than the world itself, dood her soul to endless darkness for eternity? Well yeah…I think he deserved an explanation" He sarcastically said.
Lory clicks her tongue exasperatedly "He's not going to like it…." she feel loss.
"He already in a bad mood, and is not like you can avoid the subject anymore" he shrugs while rolling his eyes.
Lory can't deny it, she does can't hide it anymore. She already has enough power to track the other fragnts and when she able to get the other fragnts who know how the cursed would react against trinity fragnts, she hopes she will not succumb to another comatose episode but when she does, she has to warn him beforehand.
"By the way if I told Zhao Li Xin everything….how do you think he would react" Lory becos more nervous when she knows she can't avoid the elephant in the room anymore.
"If you ask …." Huo Long crosses his arms on his chest while he contemplating then he shifts his gaze at Lory while shaking his head "It won't be good…"
"Great…" Lory grumbles with perplexed looks.
