Chapter 267 - Not a Dream
Kneeling before her, her father spoke to her gently.
"Listen sweetie, we understand how you feel. You want us all to survive so you worked really hard day and night to create this. But we can"t sacrifice thousands or even millions of people"s lives just for us to survive. Don"t worry, okay? I am your father. My job is to protect you so I will think of a way to get us out of this. I promise." He said and he gently kissed her forehead.
That night, the couple began to make a plan. Thinking that their child was asleep, they started talking about what they should do. They both knew they had to destroy their daughter"s experiment, knowing that it was something the world shouldn"t know about at all cost.
After hours of discussion, her father told her mother to leave the town tomorrow with her. His plan was to force the organization to let his wife and daughter leave using her daughter"s experiment as blackmail before destroying it.
Her mother was crying hard as she hugged her husband. Hearing about his plan, she could already tell that her dearest husband was going to sacrifice himself and even though she knew this and it hurt her to the core, their only other choice for all of them to die.
"Listen Darling, you have to leave this place. I only have days left to live but our daughter is still so young. She doesn"t deserve this kind of life. All I wish is that she will at least experience the life we both experienced before. She has to leave this place. She deserves to live normally, to live a happy life. If you both could leave this place, I would die happily. I will not regret anything. This is my last wish so please make it happen. I will always be with you both even when I"m gone. Okay? I love you both very much," he said. Tears flowed down the child"s cheeks quietly as she listened to them crying, saying their goodbyes to each other.
The next morning, her father"s plan was a success. The organization let the mother and the daughter leave. He demanded a jet to return them into Country J and they agreed, not knowing that the father already set the nuclear weapon he and his fellow scientists created to explode along with him the moment they seized him.
As the jet left, an announcement saying that citizens should leave immediately because of a radiation leak echoed around the town. This, too, was her father"s plan to lessen the casualty. The few locals in the town immediately left but the rogue scientists and the members of the Blackleaf didn"t, since they were sure that the alarm was a lie. However, they had no idea what was currently happening in the underground lab. The father did his best to buy more time before launching the bomb.
Soon, the mother and the daughter were finally on their way out of Country X. Inside the jet, the two immediately wore their parachute because the mother knew that the pilot woud return the moment he received an order and she was right. Just before they reached country J, the jet changed direction so without hesitation, the two immediately jumped off the plane. At that same moment, a blast destroyed the entire town of Zemei.
The two landed just before the border and they both walked towards a nearby town. The girl was injured so her mother brought her to the clinic first before they moved on. However, that night, on their way to country J, the car they were riding in had an accident and crashed with a loud bang.

Davi suddenly woke up, her eyes were wide and unseeing. She remained in daze for a while before she slowly started to realize that that was not just a dream. What she thought was a nightmare might actually be a long lost memory and she couldn"t believe it.
"Davi… Davi… are you alright?!" a voice reached her consciousness and the moment she recognized Hinari calling out her name, she remembered that she was involved in another car accident on her way to the hospital for her checkup.
Her eyes widened again the moment she saw her stomach.
"M-m-my child. What happened to my child?! Where is my child?" she exclaimed, as her face turned as white as a sheet of paper.
"Davi, calm down. He"s fine okay? He"s alright. He"s in the NICU and he"s fine. Okay?" Hinari said and Davi teared up.
"M-my son… Hinari, I want to see him." She cried and Hinari along with a nurse helped her up. They pushed her in a wheelchair towards the room where her son was.
As soon as they reached the room, Davi cried as she touched the incubator.
"See? Your son is super cute. The doctors said he is alright so don"t worry, okay?" Hinari said and Davi smiled with tears in her eyes. She couldn"t believe that she had a child now. She was now a mother and she couldn"t explain just how happy she felt looking at the little mini human she created.
