In The Millennial World

25

This girl...
It was... this girl
She was the one who I've rescued from the mob
And the one.. who I've just took with me
I'm not kidnapping her or anything
Just taking her to safety..

After she woke up..
She's just there... still there...
She went over to sit by me like I was her friend
She was all calm knowingly how hard situations are but... there was one thing..
I can sense something down in her like something in her that was pure-lighthearted
It made me wondered if I should focus on it but...
I decided not to focus on it since having my mind to focus on other things..

Other things that are way more important..

"Yeah... sorry, I was hurting. I didn't mean to sob that loud," Yuza

I whispered.

"No... it's okay" Kisara

She replied softly.

"Did I wake you up?" Yuza

I asked, guilt lacing in my voice.

"No, you didn't. I just decided... not to sleep anymore." Kisara

"Not so tired?" Yuza

Her tone carried a quiet sadness.
I sighed, with my shoulders slumping.

"We can sit here for a while. My friends from the royal palace will come for us. They're already on their way." Yuza

"Good..." Kisara

She gave a faint smile.

"We can finally get out of here once they arrive" Yuza

I lowered my head that my voice was barely above a whisper.

"I wanted to leave... but I can't. Not yet.... I still have plans.." Yuza

Kisara looked at her curiously.

"Plans?" Kisara

"I have to find someone...," Yuza

I admitted with a flicker of fire beneath my pain.

"There has to be another way I can reach him...
I have to find that person. It could mean a thing to me.." Yuza

Kisara's expression shifted with concerns mixed with understanding...

"I don't know who he is... but finding him is what you want, right?" Kisara

She asked gently.

"Yes... I have to find him. Pretty much..." Yuza

My voice wavered, but her eyes held firm.

"I have to go find him..". Yuza

Kisara tilted her head, curiosity flickering.

"Can you explain why? Why are you trying so hard to look for this man? Is there a reason?" Kisara

I hesitated, a shadow crossing my face.

"Yeah... there is, I can't tell anyone," Yuza

I admitted, my voice trembling just slightly.

"If I did, they'd just freak out." Yuza

I turned my head away
With my words softening into almost nothing.

"It's best... to keep it to myself." Yuza

Should I keep it to myself?

Kisara studied me carefully...
Her eyes filled with quiet concern.

"I respect your choice not to say.. but you should be more careful. It's not safe to wondered off alone" Kisara

She murmured..

"I think it's something you must share, eventually. This man you're chasing... he could be dangerous." Kisara

Her voice dropped lower, weighted with worry.

"You're going after him but for what reason?
Why risk yourself for someone who could harm you?" Kisara

After a pause, Kisara spoke again
Her tone was softer, almost vulnerable.

"And... why did you save me? I'm thankful you did, but... why?" Kisara
