    In a private wardroom, there a Zerg was sitting beside a patient bed. He was watching over a frail-looking girl on the bed. The tip of his tail was nudging gently the small girl's hand.

Every day, after work, he will come here and look at the little girl, unmoved like this. He stays like that until it's time for his works and he comes back here again after work. He knows he was doing something unnormal thing. He knows this is not what the Zerg will do. However, there is something controlling his body and mind for doing all of this.

At first, he has to be alert and keep an eye on her, a pregnant human willingly asking for their help and stay on their planet alone by themselves is very suspicious. Also human and Zerg was on war year ago. Then, he starts to care about his babies, he wanted the babies in a good health and because of this, he must take care of the mother too.

Bonding their relationship with marriage making him get to know more and more about the girl. The more he knows her, the more he can't get rid of her from his mind. Seeing her in pain, he can't bear to see it and willing to do anything to make her comfortable. They only live together for only two months, but he seems to feel like he had known each other for a long time.

When he saw she was in danger before, he can't think rationally. He only wants the girl to be saved. His warms hearts now feel like it was lock in a small box. It feels so tight, so dark almost feels like being drowned in the water. Only by seeing this girl every day, his heart can be control. Still, his heart does not calm enough, the girl had not wake up for three months now.

The girl looks like a living skeleton with pale skin. Her long hair was the only one still shining and soft. Her hair had been neatly tied to her left side, with this, Zion can see her thin face clearly.

Lately, this weak girl's brain had some movement, it shows that she had gained her consciousness back but, the girl still didn't open her eyes.

His watch flash with blue color. It's time for his works. Slowly he stands up and gets ready to go for work. He takes a look at the girl's face for the last time before he goes to work, then he turns himself ready to exit the room.

However, something weak was gripping his tails. Zion reflexively turns back to see his tail which was still on the girl's hand. The girl's hand was gripping his tails. Zion's heart thumps with hope. He looks up to see the girl's face.

The girl's eyes were flickering. She was trying to open her eyes.

"Amelia?"

The girl seems to hear him, the girl slowly turns her head towards the sound and still blinking hard.

After he had confirmed Amelia really had moved, he quickly sits back beside her and calls her name again.

"Amelia..."

The girl finally opens her eyes, looking at him.

"Z-Zion?" The girl's voice sounds dry, she had not been talking for a long time.

"Amelia..." There a relief sound when Zion calls her name again. His heart thumped with nervousness.

"Z-Zion." Her voice still sounds hoarse.

Zion saw Amelia try to talk more, but she couldn't. He quickly looks for water and gently sits her up by support her back with his big tails. Then he slowly put a glass to her lips. Amelia slowly gulps the water.

She coughs a little and pushes his hand with weak, she was done drinking. She feels her body very heavy. When she looks up she saw Zion was looking at her. She frowns a lot. She still feels pain but her hand slowly lifts up and touches Zion's cheek.
