The curtains were tightly shut, The room was dark, but the person that laid still for a long time finally showed a movement, Her index finger vibrated showing the sign of life, her eyebrows twitched slightly as her eyelids parted. Everything was blurring for her, she blinked a few times to adjust her vision. She could feel her limbs sour, she had laid in that position for too long, she tried to move her body but that was too heavy for her. Eryna slowly tried to lift her hand on which an IV drip was attached.
She wanted to speak but her tongue was too heavy for her to lift,
‘What is going on? Why is everything so dark?’ She tried to move but was left breathless after a few attempts.
“Why is my body so heavy? And why does it hurt so much?’ Eryna thought to herself as she stared at the ceiling while trying to move her tongue around.
‘How long has it been? It feels like my body has caught rust,’ Eryna was finally able to lift her hand that felt like jelly.
“Fil—lay-,” some broken words escaped her mouth, she glanced at the side table where there was a vase of flowers, she wanted to call someone but wasn’t able to speak so she decided to throw the vase to produce some sort of noise. After a lot of effort, Eryna pushed the vase to the ground and it broke into many small pieces, the sound of the vase crashing caught the attention of the maid outside and she opened the door.
“Miss!! You woke up!” He ran over to Eryna’s side with a surprised face, Eryna frowned as she felt odd when she saw her expression.
‘Where am I?’ She looked around a bit and the room seemed very familiar, ‘ Is this Micah’s room?’ Eryna tried to get up and the maid seemed to notice that so she quickly approached her and sat her up in the bed, she placed a few pillows for her to rest on,
“Miss, Everyone will be so excited to know!” She stood a few steps away and spoke with excitement.
“Hmm…” Eryna gave a tired nod. The nod ran out of the room and started calling out for the butler.
“Why are you shouting?” He asked.
“Miss! Miss woke up!!” She was swinging her body from the stairs and she spoke, the butler jumped in shock, and his face formed into a smile too. He pulled out his phone and dialed Micah.
“Master! I have great news for you!” He spoke.
“Uncle Shaun? Master is in the meeting, I will pass the message to him once he is done,” it was Micah’s assistant.
“No! Bring him the phone right now! He needs to know!” The butler spoke in a desperate tone.
“But he will be angry!” She whined,
“I promise he won’t, he might even give you a bonus! Now hurry up!!” The butler was getting overly excited. He walked over to the room while waiting for Micah.
On the other side, Micah’s assistant gulped down her saliva and walked towards the meeting room. She lightly pushed the door open and saw Micah growling at the client, she decided to not go inside but before she could run away Micah caught her.
“What is it? Didn’t I tell you not to disturb me?” Micah asked.
“I am sorry—but the butler called, he said there was something important he had to tell you,” She replied.
Micah’s brows perked up and he got up from the chair and walked over to his secretary and pulled the phone out of her hand.
“What is it?” Micah spoke into the speaker.
“Master!! Miss.Eryna woke up!”
Just these words and the sour face of Micah’s turned into a blank expression, his hand lightly trembled and he gulped down his sudden surge of emotions and Breathed out.
“If you are joking—say it now, or you know what I will do,” Micah clenched his teeth and spoke.
“Master, why would I lie to you about something like this,”
“Haah! (Exhale)” Micha breathed out, “I will be there, Tell her to wait for me,” Micah looked at his assistant and rustled her hair.
“Good job,” with those words he ran out of the room in haste leaving the clients with a shocked face.
Eryna finally got back some strength, the maid brought her water as she was very thirsty.
“Why is my body so sour? Did someone beat me?” She muttered as she gulped down the water.
“Miss, you have been lying lol Ethan for so long that is why your body is bruised.” The maid replied with a smile.
“So long? How long?” She asked.
“It’s been a year!”
“Pfft—“ Eryna sprayed out the water over the bed when she heard the maid.
“ONE YEAR?! ARE YOU SERIOUS?” Eryna asked with wide eyes.
“Yes! It’s been a year, you made us wait like crazy!” The door swung open and Micah walked into the room with a serious expression. Eryna felt chills down her spine when she saw his overbearing expression. Eryna gave a forced smile and spoke.
“Hah! You grew up!” She spoke.
“Sigh! Get out!” Micah scratched his forehead and spoke to the maid. She bowed her head lightly and left the room.
“So that’s all you have to say to me after waking up?” He asked.
“What else?” Eryna stole her gaze.
“You took the life out of me and you have nothing else to say? Are you an idiot?”Micah asked in a slightly angry voice.
Eryna twitched her eyes and made a sad face, “Why are you getting angry? I just woke up. Do you want me to go to sleep again and not wake up?” Eryna was kidding but Micah’s facial muscles twitched in an ugly manner, he walked over to her, Eryna’s heart leaped out of her chest when she saw him come close so she closed her eyes tightly and took a defensive stance.
But what he met was a tight hug. “Stop talking like that!” He buried his face into Eryna’s shoulder and muttered. Eryna glanced at him acting like a little kid which suddenly reminded her of Simba,
“Where is—(Click)” the door opened before she could say it and Simba came in running.
“Mommy!! You woke up!!” When Micah heard Simba’s voice he loosened the grip around Eryna’s body a bit.
“Leave my Mommy!! I want to hug her,” Simba tried to pull Micah away,
“No! She is mine! Go to your Mother!” He spoke like a child and fought with Simba.
“But—but,” Simba’s eyes watered suddenly and his lips trembled. Eryna was in a state of shock when she saw the two together,
“No, no don’t cry-don’t cry!” Micah pulled him into a hug too and they stuck to Eryna like a pair of leeches.
“What is going on here!” Eryna asked while she was still in a daze.
“What do you mean what is going on here? It’s a family reunion!” Micah mumbled and glanced at Simba who gave a nod.
