ASSISTANT CULUN

Chapter 39. Unrecognised

Abigail blinked, the first thing she saw and heard was darkness and silence. Even from being too quiet, he could hear his own heartbeat. Far in front of him was a glimmer of light that made him force his feet to step.

Abigail grimaced, her whole body in pain. With a staggering step, he arrived near the light that turned out to be coming from the crack of the door.

Abigail peered, her eyes trying to adjust to the lighting behind the door. It seemed like he had been in the dark for so long that his eyes hurt when he saw the light. And as he got used to it, his eyes widened perfectly.

Not far from the door, there was a grandfather lying on the floor with a neck drenched in blood and staring at him. And about a meter beside him, closer to the door, there was a woman lying on her back with a bloodstained stomach area.

The floor of the room was filled with a lot of blood, including from the hands of a man who was sitting tied to a chair. In front of that chair, stood another man in a neat black suit. Abigail could see clearly, her left hand holding the gun wearing a large gold ring on her middle finger.

"If only you and your parents would give me that seat of leadership, your family wouldn't have to end up tragically like this." 

Abigail heard the man with the gun speak.

"Oo.a ta.tamak like you. Ti..no laa..worthy to be a pemim.pin."

Abigail's chest ticked faster and faster to hear the voice of the man in the chair. He held his mouth with both hands. Somehow his heart hurt, but he did not know anyone who was in the room.

A moment later, with a weak move, the man turned his head towards the door. He looked at Abigail with sadness.

"Stay alive. We all love you."

And after saying so, the man fell backwards with his chair as a result of a proper shot hit the forehead.

"Yahoooo!!!" Abigail was screaming hysterically, she was crying. Though he felt he did not know the victims, but now his heart felt very sick. And then it was filled with anger. Abigail continued to scream while lashing out at her chest.

A moment later the door opened, the man holding the gun was already standing looming before him.

"Who are you?!" The man looked at Abigail sharply. His voice made Abigail's body crumble, but her cries could not stop. The man's body loomed high before him. Makes Abigail feel like a child facing a grown man. 

Then Abigail felt her body shake. He looked at the man but his vision blurred.

"Dad!!"

Abigail could hear Micah's voice coming from the man's mouth. The girl frowned, she was astonished by what she saw and heard at this moment.

"Dad!!"

Once again Abigail heard Micah's voice, and at the same time suddenly her body moved itself towards the back. Very quickly, like someone was dragging from behind, Abigail's body moved away from the scene of the massacre. The moment the pull stopped, Abigail faintly began to be able to hear the surrounding sounds.

The "beeping" sound of a machine recording heart activity began to be heard clearly, followed by the sound of people crying.

Abigail began to open her eyelids despite being very heavy and wet. It seems like he really is crying. Abigail felt her body become very tired. Then he tried to move his fingers.

Abigail's movements made someone approach her immediately. He has not been able to see the person clearly, but Abigail feels that everything will be fine.

"Ai, it's Brother."

Abigail heard Micah's voice right in her ear.

"Ka.ka." Abigail felt powerless, but she was eager to respond to Micah's words.

"Dear, this is Brother." To Abigail, Micah's voice sounded like he had just finished crying. Hearing that, Abigail tried harder and harder to open her eyes. He wanted to know what caused his brother to cry.

"Don't be forced, just slow down." Micah tried to calm Abigail down.

"How can he calm down if you cry." Troy, who was observing Abigail's development, commented. "Come out first, I'll take care of Abigail. He's conscious now anyway. So you can rest in peace."

Abigail, hearing Doctor Troy's words, made her want to seduce Micah. However it seems impossible considering his current condition.

A moment later Abigail felt her eyes were very heavy. Micah's hand rubs gave her a sense of comfort and warmth in her heart. Abigail finally fell asleep.

One Week Later…

On a clear morning, Abigail enjoyed the blooming flowers in front of her treatment room. Last night, Doctor Troy removed all sorts of hoses that were attached to his body. So this morning Abigail was able to move freely.

The clinic established by TLH initially treated only injured agents. But as time went on, Micah began allowing treatment for ordinary patients.

Not far from Abigail, Micah and Troy were talking about Abigail's condition. Suddenly two young men appeared and walked in haste. One of them even looked at Abigail with a gaze that made the girl feel uneasy.

"Pig!" One of the young men ran over and immediately hugged Abigail.

The girl's reflexes half-turned and lifted the young man's body with her shoulders. Then he quickly dropped the young man to the floor.

"Aackhhh!!!" The young man screamed in pain as his body hit the floor very hard and one of his hands was held back and twisted by Abigail.

"Jeez Abigail!!" Micah and Troy approached.

"Who are you? It's as if you're hugging me! Are you tired of living?!" Abigail felt angry being hugged by people she did not know.

"Abigail, what do you mean? You don't recognize us?" The other young man spoke up.

"Abigail, let Darren go. We'll talk good."

Hearing Micah's words, Abigail immediately let go of Darren's hand. And he was soon helped by Troy and Trias to stand. Even Troy immediately checked Darren's arm.

"I don't like you hugging me, sir." Abigail looked at Darren with annoyance. "Although you are my brother Micah's friend, but please don't act over the line even if I don't know you."

The faces of the two young men looked extremely shocked.

"Sister? Miss Micah isn't just Abigail's boss? And what does it mean to not know?"

The successive questions that Triasaka posed made Micah massage his temple. Meanwhile, Darren, who was being examined by Troy, was seen looking at Abigail with a wounded look.

"Better now we're in." Micah led Abigail back into her care room and asked the girl to lie down on her bed. While Troy, Darren and Trias sat on the guest sofa facing the direction of Abigail's gurney.

"I know you're mad at me for not seeing you right away. But please don't say you don't know me Abi." Darren looked at Abigail with sadness. The girl he so longed for now looked at him coldly.

"But I don't know you, sir."
