A Spoilt Princess

An kai tried to keep himself up, but his body seemed to be against it . he opened his eyes wide looking in Roline"s direction . she was walking down with the pain in her ankle . the people around didn"t even notice her, all their attention was on the bleeding An kai . Christina was talking to him so that he doesn"t close his eyes, she was too scared of the possible outcome if he closed his eyes and never opened them again . Christina thought so many things but soon, she caught someone walking to them as she lipped slightly . even Christina wanted to laugh at her own thoughts . Roline was like a zombie that was shot in one leg, the only difference was that she was breathing and had a colour of life on her skin . once she reached An kai"s side, tears started streaming out of her eyes as she pushed herself to kneel besides him in a defeated manner, she didn"t look at him but she looked at Christina"s hands and then the people around her . the place had gone quiet again but to Roline, she felt that the silence was more of someone telling her of having intended to push An kai . "I didn"t mean to harm him this way, I only wanted to get away . please believe me . " under her light sobs, Roline started to murmur at herself . " I really didn"t mean to see him like this, it was an accident . . . yes . . an accident . all her cries made it hard for her to realise that one of her hand was tightly in An kai"s hands . the ambulance soon reached the place . Christina moved away for the medical personnels to do their work but Roline didn"t show any signs of moving away . An kai was carried away on a stretcher with Roline walking slowly besides it . before they could reach the ambulance, Roline felt her hand losing the warmth in it . it was gripped tightly by An kai so he had suddenly loosened, she felt the bounce of energy she had left leaving her body . panic and anxiety soon resulted into cold sweat and later, Roline lost her breath too, making her to fall right away to the ground .

the place that had started to regain its usual calmness had yet again blew up . the maids rushed up to her without anything else .

if An kai remained in his current state for a month with Roline healthy, there would be no problem because she would calm her father down but the situation had long turned sore .

Roline was put into the ambulance too, as Christina followed with the driver to the hospital .

. . .

"the young lady is fine . her ankle will be fine with some few days of rest . the nurse said to Christina . truth be told, An kai had gotten a bigger injury than Roline but most people within the Hans were more worried about Roline . even Christina didn"t know how to explain her reaction . was it out of fear for Han Rein"s reaction or the fear residing in herself? Christina asked herself as she walked towards the emergency room . the doctors were still examining An kai"s head injury . he had his eyes closed, with his nose connected to the oxygen tubes . his skin pale but his mind didn"t stop to wonder, right from when he heard Roline"s voice lamenting until when he lost energy to keep holding her hand, and the thud sound that was followed by women Crying Roline"s name, he was in the world of nothingness . he felt all his pain disappear . walking on to the empty streets of Chendigwa, he walked for a long time but he never felt tired . he saw people in black but standing in complete silence . walking up close, he noticed that there was nothing except for the flowers in front of the ma.s.ses . he walked further and that"s where he found himself looking at his mansion but the garden he had taken care of since young had so much water in it . it went up to his knees but then, he kept feeling himself sinking in for every pa.s.sing minute . . . .

. . .

Christina was still standing outside the emergency room when one of the maids reached out to her with a bag in hand . she had brought Christina a new set of clothes because all her clothes were stained with blood . she used one of the private rooms to have a shower and then changed . she felt much better after freshening up . Christina wanted to call the woman who was normally known as An kai"s mother, Xia but she didn"t have her number hence calling the driver and requested him to pick up miss Xia from An kai"s home . after, Christina gathered all her courage to call Han Rein, Roline"s father who had gone for a business trip in the entertainment city, Bussali . he was expected to be back the following day but if he knew what probably happened in the Han house, he would be worried .

"uncle, I have called to tell you that An kai is at the hospital . "

"you sound so sad, is it serious?" Han Rein asked out of curiosity . Christina was one with a high toned voice . if she could speak so low, then things weren"t as easy as she made them sound .
