久久综合激激的五月天

By the time Esong returned to the guest bedroom past midnight most of them were already sleeping. One of them, Beord, he noticed after a quick observation was snoring. Sqeezing himself past Elroy who was spread eagled close to the entrance, he found his way to the bed and slept on the left side, close to his wife as he could. 

Try as much as he did, sleep evaded him and he looked up at the roof of the bedroom which had images of rotating stars, installed in all bedrooms upon the insistence of his wife. He thought about the fact that when tomorrow came, he would have two more days on the blue star and then he would leave. It would be great if his wife was to wake up before then, he didn't want to leave before ascertaining her condition.

Esong had a pendant too around his neck which Scarlet gave him and he touched it. He was not a man of faith but sure would be glad to on the receiving end of a miracle because nothing was certain right now. Slowly, he drifted off to sleep. 

But, despite all hope, come morning, Scarlet was still out. Her eyes were closed and she showed no signs of regaining consciousness which dampened the moods of her family members. 

"Now can we go to the hospital?" Adler asked. 

"Her vitals are still normal." Dorian answered. 

"We can't just leave her to sleep indefinitely without having answers. Back then we knew she was in a coma because she met with an accident but now we have no idea. She is completely unconscious and we don't know why." Adler spoke loudly like a bolt of lightning hitting a tree. 

"Don't shout." Mega hissed at her son. Looking at her husband, she said, "He is right, now that I think about it we do not know what has caused this. If a doctor can explain it then we should take a chance." 

On the bed, Esong was facing Scarlet as he listened to their tiny argument over who cared the most and wanted the best for his wife. He was willing to bet money that eventually, Adler would win this argument because he was using logic to reason. In his judgement, Dorian was using emotion, wanting to protect Scarlet and the citizens of the blue star because panic was quite certain to set in with Scarlet unconscious. There was no doubt about it that without her, most of the plans would come to a stand still. If the people knew, they would want to return to the capital with immediate effect. 

He raised his hand and poked her cheek which he noticed was regaining color. She blinked, it was slight in the beginning and if he was not closely watching her, he would have missed it. Esong raised his head and brought it closer to her face, his eyes roamed over her still closed eyelids and her eye lids flattered again. 

He opened his eyes to call her name but right then, she opened her eyes wide at once. The first thing he experienced was shock because it was not just the rings around her pupils that were gold but the entirety of her eyes. 

 "What the hell!!" He said loudly and he moved his head away from her face. That was weird, extremely abnormal, it was as if someone had poured liquid gold over her eyes. 

His loud shocking words and the movement of his body attracted the attention of the rest of Su's. 

"What happened?" Dorian asked Esong. 

He pointed at her but the gold was gone, disappeared in an a second and her grey eyes, looking extremely ordinary returned. 

"She is awake," Mega screamed happily, "Scarlet, my dear." she shook her body by the arms. 

"Mother, don't shake her." Carolyn pulled pulled Mega Su away from Scarlet. 

Adler took Mega's place and examined Scarlet's body, "How are you feeling? Does anything hurt? Can you speak? Are you hungry?"

"Seriously, give her some space." Carolyn pulled Adler away too. How could he bombard someone that had just woken up with many questions without taking a single breath and allowing her to respond. "Scarlet, do you want some water?" The last time she woke up from a long coma, she had asked for water immediately. 

Scarlet nodded and she slowly sat upright, as she looked around the room, she wondered how long these disheveled people had been here. 

"Severus how long was I asleep?" 

"A few hours here but a whole week in the underworld thanks to Lythia's help. Congratulations on fully bonding your body and soul, now we can finally train efficiently without worrying about the danger of the flame." 

Esong propped a few pillows and helped her lean back properly so that she could drink the water Carolyn brought. "Does this mean all the rage from my soul is gone." She could recall all the destruction she had caused when she was breaking those things, setting them on fire and mutilating herself. It was if she had become someone else entirely. It sure wasn't something she would have done if she was in full control of her mental faculties.

"All gone, you are the perfect grim reaper now." he confirmed. 

She looked at her family and saw them all watching her silently but with a plethora of questions in their eyes. Aside from the questions there was the worry and tension. 

"Well, good morning." Scarlet greeted them all unsurely and she shrugged. She was not sure what kind of emotions or words could convey the right message in this situation. 

"How are you feeling?" Esong asked her. 

She raised her right hand thumb up and put on a perfect smile, "Great." she replied in a slightly shrill voice which raised many eyebrows in the room. She cleared her throat twice and coughed then she repeated her words, "I am feeling fine, my body is devoid of pain and my mind is sound." 

Elroy looked at her and rotated his index finger close to the upper side of his head, using the signal she taught him when she meant to say 'crazy' in reference to a person. 

She chortled slightly and said, "No Elroy, I am not crazy, I just had a bad episode. I appreciate you all spending the night here it looks like to care of me but we have work to do. Where is my son by the way?"

"With my grandparents." Esong informed her, "He went to the commercial kitchen in the morning because they are making kimchi again." 

She nodded, took a deep breath and decided to deal with the matters which could not be handled with kid gloves anymore since she had made peace with them. So, she she looked at her older sister and said, "Carolyn, we should talk, a real talk."
