(A/n: Sizhui means to recollect or long for)
Sailing through the sea of sadness,
I wail in your name,
in place of your warm embrace,
Is an empty echo without a face.Brightness. Beautiful bright light. Warmth. Happiness.
"Lan Zhan" I hear Wei call my name and I open my eyes.
Blinking against the piercing sunlight that filters inside Jingshi, I realise that the reality is far heart wrenching than the dream.
My Wei is no longer in this mortal world with me. A lone tear falls quietly and I am unable to wipe them away.
Lying down on my chest, my arms are unable to be used. Remembering the moment from before, I realise the damage is far grave.
"You're awake" I hear a familiar voice and I look at Lady Zhi Ruo carrying a plate and entering my chamber "Now now, don't be annoyed, I know you don't like anyone entering Jingshi, especially me, but I had special permission from ZewuJun" she smiles as she sets the plate on a small table next to me. Her smile slowly slips away as I carefully look at her. She has been crying.
"How long have I been unconscious?" I ask with a coarse voice.
"Five days" she answers truthfully.
"A Yuan?" I cough and she brings a small cup of water next to my parched lips. Carefully, I welcome it's coolness.
"He's with me" and my gaze finds her's "I'll take care of him until you're back on your feet. Then he's yours" she gives me a strained smile "for him, get well soon" she whispers at the end.
"What happened after I fainted?" I close my eyes and inwardly shiver at the thought of my burning back.
"After you fainted, ZewuJun carried you all the way here, gave you the necessary medications" she stops abruptly. There is something she is hiding.
