If The Moon Can Be Counted As A Star - Chapter 27

“Dang it Xiao Mei! I said run, forget your injury! Go now!” Misses Zhis face unhurriedly altered as skeleton. With her hands turning to plain dusts.

“Mother!” Xiao Mei Zhi put up her right hand out to nobody.

Misses Zhi faded out with a terrifying screams to end the dream.

And this does not only happen once. Every night since that day visions of how Misses Zhi got a knife on her chest comes as a nightmare now, consciously, painfully, every time Xiao Mei Zhi woke up, she always knows that anytime she would have to stare at nothing and wish that she was dead. This must be her greatest sin. She has been punished for leaving her mother behind.

Her eyes were now open, but her soul. . perhaps left. While her hand shortly falls to the sheets.

Dullness flowed into the silences of Xiao Mei Zhis mind with no threat anymore from the darkness that she got used to breaking out was not the precise antidote. Before, she was desperately pushing to the limit to flee.

However, it came to the point were she would never felt this tired, so depleted of vigor without doing nothing, including denying the food that were sent to her that was supposed to be eaten by her too.

And she does not wonder why. The answer was recognized, the loss of her mother, the different world that she continue in concluding that it was just a dream, the terms that she needed to hear everyday, the spokespeople inside her psyche and many more to deal with on her future days.

It was to much to fight and take in. With a considerable breath she agreed on to let herself get puffed up back into the forgetful thoughtlessness.

“Tiny Cactus, are you awake?”

“Calm down Yu Jie, let me handle this.”

[Infernal Banging on Xiao Mei Zhis door]

An interval later, she interfered in opening her heavy eyelids. She blinked, while listening to the marvelous uproar of the door being banged with letting her eyes get harmonized before glimpsing around her bed and to the surroundings.

What was new? This was the typical days. From the period that she was sent here to the Freis Residence, the new hymn begins with a loud banging from the late mornings of her manner of living.

“Open up the door tiny cactus!” Doctor Gmeis pleaded.

“The mourning days are over for you Xiao Mei Zhi! Have you even overlooked about your mother?”

A frigid sweat popped up across her skin as she stared at the hatch with the nosy people outside.

‘Mother. . ‘ The adverse surrounding embraced her with cold, mildewed air might possibly pricked on her nose and each breath created her lungs ache. Just like the thoughts about her mother ,gave rise to her heart ache.

“Just break the door already you weak people!” Xiao Mei Zhi piped off the harmonious sound. As she was pushing herself up to a sitting position in the bed, “Stupid, you both have the spare keys !”

“We want you to open the door for us. The spare keys are not to be used when it has no emergency related.”

“Ugh! Can any one here just kill me!” A profound distress shot through her spine from laying down in the bed with a poor posture.

“We have collected your belongings including your mothers thing.”

‘Are they telling the truth this time?’ She knows that they use a trick to bait her out. Even if they see her as a weak person, she must not let a lie drag her out.

“Let’s just kill her already. She has been useless for the whole month of staying here!”
