Second Chance (Continuation)

Chapter 3 Part 14

Michiko peeked a little where Eli is standing. She is worried of him especially Jose is appeared in front of him now. Bi An sees what Michiko saw too. "...Shouldn't we help him?" 

Michiko hold Bi An's hand tightly and shook her head. "We can't let him know where we are." 

And both of them shocked at Eli's act where he threw the umbrella up and his owl took it. 

'What is he doing?' Thought Michiko.

Bi An didn't know why there is another survivor here. But it looks like he is an ally. Except the act he was just done where he threw his umbrella. But he knows he can trust him. Atleast.

And suddenly, they see Jose attack Eli and he injured. Bi An is going to go out but he is held by Michiko. "Where are you going, Xie?" 

"We need to help him! He can get hurted more." 

Michiko shook her head and still hold him back. "Don't do it! You can get caught again." 

"That's what I mean. He wants me. Both of you should take Wu Jiu out and leave me." Bi An shouted. But Michiko still won't let go his hands.

"Then don't go there. We can't leave you here!"

"BUT YOU CAN DIE HERE!" Michiko shocked a little because of Bi An's shout.

Bi An lowered his head and she can see both his eyes are teary now. "I don't want you to die." 

He kneeled down and see his both hands. "Because of me, you all will die." 

Michiko still listened to him. Bi An covered his face with his both hands. "Why? You really want to save me? I'm useless. I can't protect people I loved." 

Bi An's sobbing even more. "He died because of me. I let him die. And now.." 

He looked at Michiko. "You will die because of saving me. Why? Why? Why?" He cried harder now. "I don't want to lose someone anymore. Like how I lost him." 

Suddenly, he can feel a warm touch on his both cheeks. He opened his eyes and sees Michiko hold his face with her both hands. She gives a warm smile. 

"This is my decision to do so." She wiped off his tears off. "If I will die because I am protecting to someone that I care. Then I won't show any regrets." Bi An is shocked at her statement.

Michiko gazed at him softly. "Because we are partners, right?" She smiled.

The two remained silence now. Michiko still showed her smiled and touch his face. Bi An just lowered his head and whispered. "..Michiko..I-"

"Having fun time both of you?" 

Michiko and Bi An shocked at the voice. They turned around and see there is someone watching him. 

Jose smiled at both of them and smirked. He threw the owl or Brooke Rose far away. She looks badly injured. And there is the umbrella he is holding. 

Bi An can feel his fear now when he saw Wu Jiu is on his hand. 

Jose smiled cunningly and said. "Want to play another game?"
