The Horizon Boundaries
Ch. 77 Go back



Maisa ran in the hospital corridor. He almost hit a few people passing by. Her heart felt like it had stopped beating upon hearing the critical news of Mia in the hospital.


She found her brother sitting in front of the operating room with his head down. Kio looks shabby and haggard. His hands were still filled with dried blood.


Maisa approached Kio with a gasp of breath. He touched his sister's shoulder slowly. Kio looked towards him. A look of anxiety was drawn on his pale face.


"What's going on, brother?"


Kio did not answer the question. His mind floated on his struggling lover on the operating table. Maisa gave him a hug, patting his back slowly.


"Mia will survive, brother. She's a strong girl. Keep praying for her."


The operation lasted four hours. Kio and Maisa were waiting outside with a feeling of uneasiness. Operation sign lamp finished off. One of the doctors wearing green clothes approached the two.


"The operation was successful. The patient is now in critical condition and is now unconscious."


"Thank you for saving my friend, Doc!" maisa said with a smile on her face.


Kio dropped his body onto the bench. His face looks relieved. He covered both of his eyes with his arms. His originally chaotic mind became a little calm.


The shadow as she escapes Mia to the hospital. The girl's breathing began to falter. He held the girl's hand in the ambulance. He was constantly calling out the girl's name.


Her feelings were devastated to see her lover enter the operating room. He gritted his teeth.


"It's all my fault I can't protect her," he murmured softly.


Maisa patted her shoulder slowly. "Sister, change clothes first. Brother Ken came to bring you a change of clothes."


Ken came to both of them. Next to his hand was a totebag containing a change of clothes. He handed the bag to Kio. Kio. The look looks sad.


"Me and Maisa will take care of him. If you care about him, take care of yourself first, just come back here," Ken said with a deep sigh.


Kio accepted the bag reluctantly. He didn't want to leave that place for a second. These two pairs of eyes continued to look at him with piercing gazes. With a shunt he went to the toilet to clean himself.


"I feel like I'm really broken. It was like a nightmare to see my friend get hurt. Kio must have felt more than that." Maisa furrowed her brows downwards.


Ken pulled the girl's head and leaned over her shoulder. "I'm glad Mia survived. I hope he'll wake up soon."


"I hope so."


"You know, I can't imagine what if it happened to you. I'll also act like Kio."


...****...


All around it looks dark. While stepping foot trying to run, the darkness followed. Sometimes Riko heard laughter mocking. The man whispered in his ear.


You won't be able to run away from me.


Mia sits on her knees with her head down. Closing his ears tightly, but the laughter still echoed in his head.


Mia!


Someone's voice called him. Mia raised her head, looking for the source of the voice.


Mia! Please come back!


The voice was heard again. It felt familiar to him. The girl twisted her body, sweeping around her.


Go, Mia! Ilove you.


His voice sounded desperate. A man stood before him. He smiled, stretching out both hands.


The girl's eyes widened. A feeling of longing was burning in his chest. How could he forget. The man who always lives in his heart.


His feet ran towards the man. Threw himself into the man's arms. He kept calling his name.


"Kio! Kio! Kio!"


He smiled at himself. Didn't expect Kio to put on a face like that. He tried to move his hands and feet. It felt heavy, as if there were no muscles supporting them.


"You're sober?"


The heavy sound of someone beside him made his heart seem to jump out. He turned his head, finding Kio smiling at him. His eyes blinked a few times. The girl nodded, shouting in silence.


Argha! Why is he so handsome. Relax Mia. Your heart might explode like this.


Mia threw her face in the opposite direction. A red hue poked on both of his cheeks. Kio tightened the hand grip on the girl's fingers.


"I'm sorry I hurt because of me. I should have protected you. I don't seem to deserve you."


"Never say that!" sergeant Mia looked at the man's eyes fixedly. Scars of guilt implied there.


"I don't like hearing it. You've helped me twice. You're like a savior to me and a person I love."


Kio hugged Mia who was still lying on the bed. "I'm sorry and thank you, Mia. I love you too."


Maisa peeked out from behind the door shedding tears. Ken pulled the girl into his arms. Both of them rewinded their intention to enter, not wanting to ruin their second moment.


...****...


A suspect with the initials R stabbed his ex-girlfriend because of jealousy. The young man was charged with threats, persecution and premeditated murder with a period of punishment


Television broadcasts were cut off. Kio pressed the off button on the remote controller. Mia waved her lips, sulking spoiled in front of him.


"Why did you turn it off" he grumbled softly.


Kio was still busy peeling the orange peel. "That's just unimportant news. Ignore the fucking guy. Just focus on restoring your condition."


"Are you jealous?"


His hands stopped peeling. "I'm not jealous?


Mia raised next to her eyebrows. "really?"


Kio glanced at the girl. There was disappointment implied on her beautiful face. I don't know why suddenly his heart ached to see him. Since when was she that weak to this girl.


Kio clenched his hands, closing to his lips. He cleared slowly. "I'm a little jealous."


The look on the girl's face brightened instantly. His eyes are back in the light. "really?"


Kio threw away his face. His cheeks blushed to the ears. What's up with her. Like a boy in love.


Mia pulled the collar of the man. The faces of the two were very close. The two looked at each other. Kio brought his face closer. Mia closed her eyes. The distance that separates the lips of the two lives a centimeter.


Brak! The sound of the door opening. Both were shocked and moved away.


"Mia I'm coming!" maisa is coming in. Ken poked behind the girl.


Mia gave a sharp look towards the two. Maisa only realized the meaning of the gaze could only grin, scratching her cheek.


"Am I bothering you?" he closed his mouth with both hands.


Mia clenched both her hands in front of her chest. "Yes! You're interrupting the messrau moment I know! I want to be with Kio. You are insensitive!"


Maisa held back the forced smile. "I'm sorry I'm insensitive. But isn't your brain in trouble?"


"I'm still normal. The one that got hurt was my stomach, not my head!"


Mia crossed both her hands to her chest. He threw his face away, snorting in annoyance. Kio did not dare to look at the two. He covered his face with one hand.


Maisa blinked her eyes a few times. His mouth is a little bit open. Since they both acted like children. Ken just chuckles slowly at it.
